WHEELING. June 25, 1873. I


The wheat market is firmer and
without change.
In relation to the coming wheat croE
our exchanges report fair prospect Of
an average crop, while in some locali-
ties the promise is OF crop hardly ever
euualed. The St. Louis Democrat says
that from every quarter of Missouri
Kansas and Southern Illinois we hear
but one story, namely: That no crop
ever looked better or promised to yield
better wheat or more oft than the one
now ripening. Advices from England
report that fair crop may be expected,
while on the continent the promise is
for more than an average crop.
The flour market is without change
for the best and most inferior brands.
The intermediate grades have declined
from SOC to 81 per Dbl. The ruling
rates are given in our quotations.
Corn has advanced Sc per bushel.
In corn the prospects of a fair crop are
improving, but the extreme lateness CT
the season for planting, combined with
wet weather, has very much reduced
the average Of planting, so that with
good weather and late frosts we cannot
expect much over a two-thirds crop as
compared with last year, still with the
surplus that will be carried over there
will be no shortness of corn the coming
year.
The price OF oats has been very steady
bu! closing frmer than at the opening
OF the week. The trade in all kinds OF
grains has been very limited, as pur-
chasers were not disposed to take hold
prelerring to wait the developments OF
the markets. From a conversation
with several gentlemen who have
been travelling through the northern
portion of Ohio, we have arrived at the
conclusion that the coming oats crop
will fall short of previous anticipations.
The wet weather prevented early SOW
ing, and the recent dry weather found
the oats scarcely eight inches high, and
owing to the turning upof the ground
in such g wet state, especially on clay
soil, i5 now causing the ground to bake,
aud throwing the roots out. 1t is said
the oats are already heading on stalks
scarcely twelve inches high.
We have no change to make in the
prices of sailed and smoked meats
prices have ruled very firm, with an
active demand for Shipping to interior
towns as well as to thelcity retail trade
In the wool trade there seems to be q
settling down to prices for the new CLIP
and 45 and under is the ruling peice
paid. Our dealers here are buying quite
freely at that figure and their agents
report that the farmers are now bring
ing in their feeces. The Michigan
wool clip is being marketed at prices
ranging from SO to 40c, the latter only
for the choicest feeces. Dispatches
from Boston on Saturday state that
sales were made OF Ohio fleece at AGO
SHE; Illinois at 461@474c; delain';
54c; unwashed western and Kentucky

In the iron trade there has been a
very considerable decline In manutac'
