MARKETS.

MOI one feature Of salient interest was
exhibited in the market to-day. Corn
stood Just a before. Yellow Offered on
the landing at 64c, white mt &c; the lei
egram reports il heavy in New York
and lower, dun in Cincinnati, quiet in
New Orleans with 74c for the extreme
outside price, and in St. Louis unset
tied. oats were offering at 4Sc for
mixed, andIwe heard Of no transactions,
they are heavy and lower in New York,
quoting only 49G5lc in New Orleans,
dull in Louisville, dull in st. Louis, dull
and declined in Cincinnati. Bran and
hdy were quiet at former rates. Corn
meal was in increased supply at the
same rates. Flour still drags, the APP
proach Of new crops has taken all the
solidity out Of prices. Eggs in over
flowing supply, prices low and yielding,
sales all the way from S to y cents.
Chickens unchanged, q large supply of
young made rates easier; old neglected.
Arrivals Of potatoes by wagon were few,
shippers were offering 81 50GI IS for
bulk in wagons. Bacon and Lard show
no change. The New York strike
among the sugar refiners is still affect
ing rates; the New York Bulletin of the
18th reports: sisOme OF the refiners are

sufficient for the outlet, and with an
idea that all the workmen will soon en-
gage in the strike, the prospects of a
supply are very slim. Values continue
very variable, according 70 customer,
the amount held by sellers, and the
amount called for and close quotations
are still difficult" The same paper says
or C0foc: "'N0t very active, but ex-
tremely frm,' is the universal report
upon the wholesale market for goods
from first hands. Supplies are going out
10 some extent INTERPRETATIONS are con-
slant whenever really desirable goods
are TO he found, but the volume of BUSH
ness rs compared with the early portion
of the month is not quite so large OF
general. A desire 10 secure profits on
the part of jObbers and a fair accumula-
ton in store tends 10 modify the volume
of business somewhat and the full cost
also contributes a little toward producing
dulness, but the distribution is compare
lively free, and not likely TO fall away
10 any extent, il is thought, while pros
pective arrivals are small. In short,
holders have about the entire control of
the position at the moment. and moth
ing seems TO indicate that they can he
forced 10 yield for some time to come.
On Brazils The late advance in cost is
well sustained, and from first hands the
offerings are extremely moderate, i'm
pOrters having no inclination whatever
TO realize. West India STYLES of prime
quality are wanted and would-be-buy-
ers are willing to pay a full price, but
owners continue quite indifferent and
refuse 10 accept current bids. East India
grades are evidently much better appre-
ciated than a month or six weeks ago, |
and though there Is no very large or
general movement, fair amounts go out
in small invoices and command good
prices. Business for the day has Seen
moderate, even the jObbing trade NOV
ing a little slowly, but the market re-
tains a generally firm tone, and bids are
useless except at outside figures"
