The PRODUCE MARKET yesterday was
90 dull to afford anything OF interest to
report. The st. Louis Globe of Wednes-
day had the following particulars: "Pro-
visions weak; with operations in pres
| ent unsettled condition, it is impossible
TO predicate prices from day to day. AL
together, however, the outlook IS not
unfsvorEble, and adopt ng the ordinary
saying, there is no telling what a day
may bring forth. Coffee is stronger
The United States is the principal graz
airy from which the food deficiencies of
Europe are annually recruited. Thus,
of the q, ZOE, 500 cWt of wheat impaired
into Great Britain during the first half
| of the year, no less than 10, 74S S03 cWt,
or about so per cent. of the whole, was
drawn from the United States, against
only 3,4l0 25l cwCfrom Russia. During
the same period last year the United
States contributed ssh per cent. of the
total English imports, and in 1874 81
per cent. Tne growth of our grain trade
has been nine times more rapid
than that of the Russian.
Superior intelligence, skill, enterprise,
capital, and facilities of conveyance
have, in ten yeaIs, enabled our country
men practically to drive the Russians
out OF the English market. We have as
great facilities for exporting to Hamburg
and Bremen as to Liverpool and LON
don. The probability is, therefore, that
We shall repeat in Germany what we
have done in England" Corn in our
market was dull; sales of 50 sacks at
46c, 269 at 463c, and 142 sacks OF ear
corn at 423. Oats were fiat; mixed were
offering st 400, and SO sacks superior at
46c, with Al bid. Hay continues to
dToOp; IS bales Of new timothy Id at
$40, am car load of new prairie at
S. 60. Wheat was lifeless; 50 sacks were
received. COT7lnleaL was irregular, but
holders were stimulated by the scarcity
of it at New Orleans, and come Of them
bought ali they could get at
81 so on the spot to send there;
offers at 81 so were reported, but
81 so was the regular sailing price on
the landing, but the interference Of
Indiana meal introduces irregularity.
Potatoes were dull at 81 00@l 10 loose
for such as offered. Apples would bring
81 coal so, and even 81 75 barrel meas
Ure for good to choice; 75c and lower is
all that common trash will bring, and
hog-teed stuff will net bring that. II
foolish people choose to send apples to
market that are inferior, carelessly gath.
cred and unfit for sale, they must not
look to get gooO prices for bad material,
Cabbage in barrels sold at 81 50(9l IS

mand. Eggs were scarce at 149l5r,
generally latter. Butter quiet ana
steady at 12t922c. Chickens heavy and
weaker, up der large supply, sales at ST. %
a. 25, TO get anything beyond the latter
was difficult. We see that Sutton & Co.
have started, the manufacture of bran
