The unfavomble tenor Of the Nationa

clincd In the st. Louis market.

SIZE
Flour is dull, at unchanged prices.
Produce is generally higher in our ma -kct
and in more general demand. There are no
apples IN the market, but fair supply OF
Irish potatoes. Eggs and butter are more
abundant and cheaper than usual at thi,
time Of year, owing to the mildncss Of tho
weather.
