part Of the week fhere has been q nTmer
feeling in hour, and prices have an advanc-
ing tendency. O.. u.
The receipts Of wheat have been very
Light, and holders look for an advance. The
market for both wheat and -four is nrmer
here than In any or the Southern markets.
Our dealers seem 70 be satisfied that both
these commodities will touch q good deal
higher figure before there is any decline
Corn and oats have been steady. with bat
little fiuctuation, the prices closing at the
same figure as al the opening OF the week.
Oats are little flrmer than corn, with q
prospect OF an advance.
Butter has declined materially during the
week. in the better qualities from 2to Sc per
pound, with remarkably good quality
coming in. There Is scarcely any inquiry
for the inferior grades Market closed finn
st prices on Saturday.
Eggs are scarce, and have advanced &c per
dozen.
In salt and smoked meats there is no ma
terisl change except in extra sugar cured
hams, which have advanced &c.
The market for groceries is active al our
quotations The proba Utilities are excellent
for fine boating stage OF water. This al
ways gives increased activity 10 the grocery
and provision market.
New Orleans molasses is very firm al our
quotations, with the prospect OF an adj
vance.
Dried apples and peaches are quiet and
steady.
In wool the market seems 10 be almost al
stand-still. Owing 10 the rain and cold
weather but part Of the crop has been
clipped, and those that have sheared are
moi pressing il on the market, as the price
now offered is not as high as anticipated
early in the spring, while the buyers are
not anxious TO buy large lots owing TO the
uncertainty Of the market. Still sales are
made Of small quantities al the current

facturers have come forward more freely
