GRAIN-During the current week
nothing of importance has transpired
to interrupt The quietude of the mar
ket or change prices. CoRN-The first
| new cargo Of the season was received
during the week from Hyde county
and consigned to Messrs. DeRosset &
Co., grain dealers-the cargo being
small, sold at IS cents y bushel. Ar
rivals, however, would hardly COM
mand those figures, as the demand is
more for old rather than new corn.
The cargo quotations to-day are nomi-
nally as follows: 80 to 49, cents for
new corn and 82} to IS cents for old
corn. The stock in market is light but
the receipts from the Northern ports
continue ample to supply the wants.

though we have no advance of quota.
tons to report, yet there is a trmer
feeling manifested generally and An
early advance is anticipated. The Gin
cinnati Commercial saws:
There has been considerable excite
ment and buoyancy in the market since
our last, under growing speculative
demand for new meats, and prices
have largely advanced. The consump-
tive demand has also been large, and
the stock of old Bacon is being stead
lily and rapidly reduced, while of old
Bulk Meats the stock is exhausted ex-
cept of Clear Rib Sides. The specu-
lative demand comes chiefly from the
country, aud many new packers who
intended to operate largely when Hogs
were selling at 81 90 p GENITAL gross
and under are not disposed to follow
up the advance, preferring to let those
who have confidence in high prices
carry the load, thinking that later in
the season they can buy meats cheaper
than they can pack and carry them.
The speculative operations have been
largely in Green Meats which the buy
ers have cured by the commissionp pack
ers. There is a good consumptive de-
mand for meats Is to 20 DAYS ia salt,
AID they are taken nearly as fast rs
they are ready for market, but every
day adds To- the amount OF such stock
available. There has been some spec
ulative demand for prime steam Lard
also, which, with the manufacturing
demand gave strong lone to the
market.
