WHEELING, February list, 1878. !
Trade generally, with the exception of
Wheat and Four, is improved in tone and
amount, but is still restricted by the waut OF
money accommodations.
Flour Is steady in price and does not SYM
pathise with the week.-mrs. OF the Wheat
market The trade is confined entirely 10
the supplying OF the demand ior city cou-
sumption. Buckwheat FL ur Is lower, with
with a weak market; holders are anxious
to dispose of the stock on hand. Rye Flour
Is fl m aud steady and without change of
price during he week.
Wheat very dull and transactions lin
tied. The decline in prices in Western mar
kets having an effect here We think there

ter prizes than now u will be paid be-
fore the new crop comes in.
Corn dull at i5c. Oats firm at iO@i2c.
Dealers anticipating higher prices.
The Butter market is firm expressly for
choice, and the city trade abSorbs all that

until the Spring make will be in and we
shall then have a better grade at lower pri-
ces

have declined fully DC. on the pound, with
no sales Of any large amount. The markets
East are also reported as lat, with sales
