quoted quiet and unchanged. The average
amount Of trading at the lumber yards WAS no.
The demand for lime, cement, brick, &C., has
been rather better than last week. Common
brick are quoted at Sl150@15.00, with many
dealers holding firmly at $1,000. The surplus
in the hands Of manufacturers is large. Coop

Iron, tin, copper, &C., were in very fair de-
mand for the season at previous prices,
Wool was moderatively active; the receipts

500. Potatoes are scarce and firm at go
to % the ioeai {rade but e most Of the oernes
we're poor, and sold slowly, at reduced prices.

weaker. Apples and other fruit we're in tolerably
fair demand at previous prices.

Buffalo, with wheat to do nominal at Ike.
There was fair inquiry for vessels, but few Of
fered. A total Of three charters was reported,
which will carry out q, 1000 bu wheat, $4,000 bu
corn, and 35 600 bu oats. Very few moro vessels
will 60 out this season.
Dressed hogs were quiet and steady. 4 lot Of
20 head was reported sold on the street at 421c

than any Packers combination could
possibly do. This mado buyers of product hold
off, early, for further concessions in prices; but
sellers resolutey adhered to tie reduced quota
tions Of yesterday. and buyers ut last took hold
quite freely, except in pork, for which there WAS
very little demand, and the only option sale re-
ported was at q decline. Lard was especially
out numerous orders. Meats were in
fair request, English middles moving
more freely than heretofore but were easier.

Flour was very quiet, and steady, at former
prices. Dealers were generally asking higher
f3ures, especially on Minnesotas, which we're
scarce, and claimed that all brands were In scant

OF heayiness reported in New York hence but
little was done. Buckwheat vas scarce and
wanted; bran firm, and in good demand.
