the condition of the rosn market since our last
weekly. In the early part of the week strained
opened very firm under favorable telegraphic
advices, and sales of 5000 bbls were effected
Friday, at IS IS per Dbl. Saturday the market
still held up, with sales of 700 bbls, ut fridays
figures. Monday the undertone of the market
became weak, which continued through Tues
day, and "Wednesday the market receded and
declined Is cents. To-day, at the time of clos
ing our report, the market was very quiet, and
in fact, nominal. No. has figured but
little only a small transaction on Friday at
fair margin above strained. No. / and Pales
have been in fair request, with a moderate
amount Of sales at prices satisfactory to both
seller and purchaser. The receipts both by
river and rail continue to be moderately large,
and the exports being free the stock is becom-
ing, by degrees, slightly reduced.

and weak, 5 usual at the close of the old sea-

week has been fair in a regular way, both loca
and for shipping, without any special activity
and the market has ruled steady but firm al
previous rates. The receipts show a small I'M
provcment on the previous week, but the export
have been large, and the stock in market il
kept in a balanced condition. Some small lot
O. this years crop have in, but the been br rough
receipts arc of no size, ard no market price ha
been yet established. There were, however
small sales at 7O@75 cents. Since last week NJ
