GRAIN-CoRN.-Since onr last re-
port there is decided change for the
better in this article The receipts
were no larger than the demands, and
dealers and millers purchased the car
goes upon arrival with little hesitation,
at an advance of - cents on previous
rates. The cargo sales rs far as we
were able to ascertain, were as follows ::
One cargo (schr Henrietta Hill $500
bushels prime white mealing at 80
cents; another (schr. Fairfeld) 2,O02
bushels at 70 cents; another (schr.
Lucretia) 1,256 bushels at 20 cents;
another (schr. E. Francis) I, 459 bush
els at 70 cents; and another (schr. vii
Gam) 1,O79 bushels, sacks in GUIDED, at
86l cents per bushels. The stock is
still quite large, and if offerings were
larger it would be difficult to obtain 70
cents, but az the offerings and receipts
are light, we may safely quote cargoes
at rs to 80 cents. The receipts for the
week %, 7S0 bushels, against 1870
