Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1875-07-09

rather buoyant view Of probabilities Of
values, aud we note thst the general
tendency was upward after Wednesday.
There is no export demand, nor any for
distillatioD, owing to the seizure of the
distilleries by the government, aud to
these two circumstances are to be as
cribed the dimensions OF the cash mar
ket.
CORNMEAL In sympathy with corn,
meal had an upward tendency and s. IS
was asked, but the demand was light
aud sales were usually at 3 30. The
st. Louis Democrat Of Wednesday, re-
ports: "Firm and unchanged; city s. 20
as IS; country and Alton brands g IS
as As per barrel.n Alton stock, we here
see, quotes low. In our market stocks
were reported low in the evening, and
s. IS insisted on.
EGGs-Poor inquiry and better supply,
sales at liCGl5c.
FLoUR-Heavy; some common sold
at a; good to fancy styles, S5C97 %.
The st. Louis Democrat, June eth,
says: "FlOur must be dismissed with
few words, for i. requires but few TO ex-
press what the market has been for the
past week-and indeed TO- many past
weeks. Orders on the market have been
so limited as to impart no life, and in
the absence Of any shipping demand
may readily be conceived the utter stag
nancy that has distinguished the trade.
Why this is so with an article Of such
prime necessity is unsccountable. Nor
Is il understood that there is any at
tempt to construct theory il explana-
ton. The fact remains that the market
is without motion Of any Significance,
nor does there seem any expectation Of
immediate improvement. The sales Of
the week have been in small lots for on
ly pressing supply, and the receipts are
light; but in the stocks, as a consequence,
there is a large increase, and this might
not be considered conducive to the
strength OF values, yet it may be said
that they have been very well sustained
under adverse circumstances"
