WuzAT-Business is f,irly active, though the mar
ket preserves serene aspect. Some operators eX-
pecte1 lively times to dry, but the fact that the
wires are down and we are the 'efore without for
eign quotations, will probably eXDain the occasion
OF very quiet Change session. Shippers are buy
ing the GU side very FIRE ~ and 1t 10 quite proba
bic that the current weeks business will comp re
favOrably In volume with any similar period in the
present harvest year. 1t seems to be concealed that
81 rs is the standard figure for choice No. l, and
most OF the transactions being negotiated are doubt
less arranged on this basis Within the past twenty
feur hours probably not less than 5000 centals
have changed hands ct 81 70. One prominent
broker reports sales of various lots ON shipping &C
count aggregating $1,000 centils. at range OF
81 7I}GI IS per GENITAL. Sales Of No. are reported
at 81 65 to the extent Of 9,O0) eenta5. The good
understanding that just now exists between the
Contracting parties materially helps transactions.

BARLEY-lhe advantage of the situation is still
favorable to the selling Interest. week ago 81 40
was considered full figure for Feed, but sales
are reported tod at 81 42s showing still further
mar ed improvement. Holders are agreeably sur
prsel at the strength that has been exhibited for
month past. New Brewing has kept good pace with
the upward movement. Ten days since reported
sale of Il small lot at 81 so somewhat as.ohshed the
trade, and many persons were inclined to doubt its
correctness. Yesterday, however, we obtained from
q reflDle source the SAFE OF q gOO1 IOu1Q lou a.
81 go, which is now the established rate for choice
article. Buyers seem at the moment TO make no
distinction between old and new. Heavy purchases
OF bay Chevalier have been nsummated within
few days on English account. The demand did not
cause any excitement, though it is understood that
full figures were mainly paid for standard parcels.
The amount of choice bay CAevaier in first hands Is
believed to be rather fm1ll. To-daJs transactions
embrace $500 bags choice Feed at 81 42t and
$50 do at 81 40 per centl. We quote Feed,
81 37iesl 42l; Brewing, 81 55Gl 60 for old, and
81 50gl 60 for new Chevalier, 81 50dl go for
choice standard Bay and 81 408l As for coast.
0ATs-Olr quotations are more or less nominal.
Local dealers are pretty well Stocked and consign
meats are coming along much too freely to suit the
convenience of sellers. Offerings are profuse but
buyers keep in the background. So far this week
not u sale has been reported Some transactions
have occurred of course, but the parties interested
did not wish the details to be made public. 1t is
quite certain that no sales have been made above
our quotations. We quote as follows: Good to

WooL-The Boston Commercial Bulletin OF the
24th ultimo says that the sales there for the two
previous weeks were the largest in the history Of
the trade, not lels than l. O0J,0 900 us changing
hands withio that period, at steadily advanced
prices. The aggregate rise in values was placed at
2SlSc 2 10, while the demand was represented to be
active with values ten5ing upward. 1t Is claimed
that the consumption at Eastern manufacturing
eentsrs has increased about As per cant in the
two years, while the production does not shsw a
corresponding enlargement. Foreign imports a.
Boston have fhus far fallen cff about two thirds in
mount compared with last We n, waile the mar
kets abroad are represented TO be quite firm as
our own. Manufacturers are therefore disposed to
secure supplies in advance, and more
willing tn carry stock than short time
since. This fact will eccount for he recent
act witty ard consequent appreciation Of
values. The local market Il entirely without ami
nation shippers are de AIRED from purchasing
BY the extreme prices asked by holders Cor sid
cradle OF last years California Fail Wool is new
Offering the Boston market, which it is asserted
il selling AZ prices 293c p d under what sim
liar woods here are now held for. Further COM
ment on the presen. lathargy now manifest in
this market is unnecessary. Quotations at the
moment largely nominal, while stocks are
rapidly accommodating. We quote as follows for
