OFFICE OF THE DAILY REGISTER,
WHEELING. January IL, lSl2.

| WHEELING, Jdllu1Is ~, Ao'-- ,
The General market for the week has
ruled quiet and without any very impor'
tant changes.
The Flour market is very excited and
prices have advanced 25c, with the prospect
of a still greater advance. Holders are un'
willing to sell at present quotations.
! Under the excitement in the Flour mar
ket. Wheat has advanced &c per bushel, as
will be seen by our quotations. Corn Is
slightly firmer, but no advance Is asked
Oats have maintained their irmneSS anu al
the close there was a slightly stronger feel
ing, owing to the lightness of the receipts
Rye and Barley have ruled nominally un'
changed.
| Provisions have ruled quiet and dull there
being no important change in the market
The receipts OF Dressed Hogs have been
extremely light and at the close prices
were weak, but without particular change
Choice Butter has been in good local dc
mand, but the supply of the lower grades
is large, with scarcely any demand.
Cheese is quiet and unchanged, with very
little doing.
Eggs continue firm.
The offerings OF Potatoes were somewhat
larger, and at the close prices fell OF about
cents.
Seeds have ruled active and firm, the
market closing strong AT advanced quota
tions.
The trade in Groceries continues good,
and there have been no important changes,
except in Coffee, which continues TO ad-
vance. We do not believe there is an
ounce of Coffee in the market to-day that
can be sold at 23c. The supply is so very
short that further adv anCe must be looked
for.
Iron and Nails hold their own ut the ad-
vance made two weeks since, and the de-
mand Is good.
Petroleum has been in good demand and
the market has ruled quiet.
