The Wheat Market in Baltimore.

BALrrMoRE, July 3l.-During the
month Of July a noticeable feature oi
the market here has been the movement
in wheat, the dealings in which have
been large beyond all precedent in the
history Of the commerce Of this city.
The receipts have been about 100000
bushels, an amount equal 10 the entire
annual Tcceips at this port within a
comparatively few years; the exports
have been nearly 100000 bushels, and
the sales, including options for future
delivery, amount 10 the enormous az
gregate OF 100000 bushels, represent
inga money valuation OF about 800
600. The increase in the volume Of the
grain trade OF our city within the past
year or two has been wonderful, and
among the Atlantic cities We are now
second 10 New York. The exports have
been nearly double in value to those Of
last month, and the general showing Of
business Is very satisfactory.
