nARKETS

The market was very quiet this morn
ing with the exception Of filing country
orders for the Saturday boats. Corn
was once more the center Of attraction,
for the heavy lot Of the stranded fiat
boats IS still offering, no bid has been
made that has taken it. Offers have
been made for 4 portion Of the lot, but
the sellers desire to close it out at one
transaction, and to-day they appear dis
posed to make some concession on their
first demand, which was 6Sc. Sales Of
yellow were made at 64c, and Of white
at 66c. ApprehensiOns of a further de-
cline are expressed, ON account of large
receipts along some of the upper afhu-
ents Of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers.
The st. Louis Tunes of Friday says /:
Corn was Ia very large receipt and de-
clined early in the day, but closed firm
" at the decline. All grades suffered on
both sides Of the river" Chicago dis
patches report corn at lower rates, at st.
Louis dull and dropping; dull in New
York. dull and weak in New Orleans.
OQts have no backbone" and are con-
sidered worth 48950c with little business
doing; the St. Louis Times says of them:
Oats sold lower, and there was little
desire 10 buy, considering the large re-
ceipts and their probable continuance
The telegraph reports them dull and
declined in that market; they are low
er in New York also. Bran is stagnant,
We did not hear Of a sale. Hay is firm
in the better qualities but very quiet.
COr7tHaeHt manages to sell at 8 30,
owing to the moderate offerings on the
market, but the position Of corn threat
ems rates. Eggs were in full supply with
a moderate demand; sales were made
as low as lie, but Is was the prevalent
rate. Young Chickens of fair size bring
the same price as old; old are in decreas-
ing request and are weaker than on the
previous day. Potatoes are reaching
market in wagons, and we heard Of some
a0deEing to-day At a low as 3 40 loose,
S3(a3 . were the current rates. Bacon
was q shade firIneF and better, and W.
now quote clearsides, 7sGSc; mess pork
as before CO8ee is an object Of much
attention. The New Orleans PcdyuRe
said Of il on Thursday: "On Wednes-
day last an improved demand sprung up
for Brazil coffee, and before and after the
receipt Of the Rio kilograms that day an
advance OF tot cent per ID in gold was
speedily established-the increasing de-
mand for consumption, the small arri-
walls and rapidly diminishing stocks
strengthening the views Of holders even
before the arrival Of the kilograms, d
after they came tO handthe full advance
noticed was easily realized. Since then
the demand has continued good fOrhOme
use, the market being buoyant and
somewhat excited, and holders more and
more ~indisposed to sell except at con-
stantly advancing prices. There Is, IN
nam.nuHul~--L H. rame~T#m~ Hhnn aFhnw-
wise would be, and as the stock is now
in few hands and easily controlled, a
still higher range of values is looked for,
when the inquiry for consumption at
the West attains more formidable pro-
portions, which is expected as the
month wears ON The New York
Bulletin OF the twelfth says Of coffee.
"The entire advantage Of the position
still Appears to be in favor Of the selling
interest, and we have simply to repeat
: previous reports and call the general
market strong at extreme prices, with
a slight touch Of bUoyancy on all choice
parcels. Some jObbers have managed
to get together a fair stock and apart
ment, but others again are quite short in
their supplies, and, taken altogether, the
accumulation in second hands would
not stand a very large draft, and as the
interior distribution keeps up well and
gradually grows, the position seems to
encourage the belief that importers
stocks are good property and win all be
wanted
