WHEELING. December 26, 1872. !
There is not much activity In the general
markets Trade is suffering the usual holt
day depression. After New Year there will
be marked change, and especially ifthere
be any improvement in the weather and in
the river.
Wheat Is firm at our quotations, and,
though we make no change in our figures
this week, the tendency is strongly upward.
The flour market Is excited and prices
have advanced twenty-five cents per barrel
during the week, with astrong upward ten
dency.
Buckwheat flour IL advancing. The de-
mand for a good article is active.
The closing Of navigation has about ex-
hausted the stock of molasses. We have
heard Of three or four large lots that are on
frozen up steamboats, in the lower river.
There is no change in quotations, however.
Prime sells for 20 cents.
The coffee marketis verv excited, and
xarv material advance is looked for, as the
mills in Rio have advanced their prices

IL no chapgein quotations.
