"WEDNESDAY, Aug. l8, 1875. (

lines speak Of fair activity for dayor so,
aud then lapse into the normal condition
Of trade.
In groceries and provisions there is no
change in quotations, though decided
dullness prevails with the exception of
coffee, which Is very firm.
Flour is in very moderate demand, at
the same figures as last week.
WHEAT-Whiie there is a decline from
81 80 to 81 80, for the best old white
wheat, the quotations for new continue
the same. There is not the animation
i'll the market nor the disposition to buy
which WAS observable some days ago.
Though farmers have brought in but little
new wheat. desire to sell is manifested.
The numerous samples that are received
by the millers, show s great Va
riety in the quality OF the
grain. We were shown a lot, bought
yesterday, of early wheat, which was us
good as any brought to market last year,
this though was only one out Of many.
Too often samples are shown for figures
which the mills won't touch. The ten.
dency Of the market is slightly down
ward.
Corn is scarce at quotations.
Some few oats have arrived bus the
prices sre not yet established,
There is no old hay in market. Con-
siderable new Is coming in, but is so
various in quality that it ranges from $l2
to 81 per ton.
All kinds of green stuff Is very dull
and prices considerably lower. The
market is abundantly supplied. Large
lots are being received daily from abroad
which effects the home product mater
illy.
Wool is very quiet and decline OF
one cent is noticed. Mr.. II. X. List re-
ports buyers AS very scarce at those
figures. He informed us that an auction
sale of 2GS,OOO bales OF Cape and Aus
tralean unwashcd woods, commenced in
London Yesterday and opened dull at
I'D. which in currency with premium
added is about 80 cents. This Is cNcIud-
ing the duty.
