Wharf.-The buoyant tone of the market has
brought out large offerings. Exporters buying
freely and although many transactions are kept
private enough has been ascertained to show that
81 40 D ctl for choice shipping is not extreme
figure. in fact, we know of limited transfers at
81 42l but not permitted to give details. The
more favorable feeling now prevailing is mainly due
to the large tonnage accessions yesterday causing
an increased inquiry. Close buying for some time
the part of shippers, together with the general
withholding of supplies by farmers, have had their
respective influences. A timely advance in the
Liverpool market, which seems likely to be per
manenJ, has also contributed to the Improvement.
Early in January remarked that many holders
had placed limit of 81 50 their several crops
and would entertain no lower offer for three
months Since then the market has had bad
tumble, but, rule, the large gave
evidence of weakness, but simply withdrew
their grain, content to wait for bet
ter times, which seem to be
at hand. A month ago the top price
for No. was 81 32l, against 81 40 this morning.
Those who have carried stocks through the late de-
preston certainly have cause to regret such
action 1t is believed that since the close of Change
last Saturday, purchases to the extent of nearly
quarter of million centals have been consum
mated, and that full figures have been generally OBJ
tanned by sellers Sales to-day include 10, 900 ctls

BARLKY-Hoders generally are disappointed at
the condition OF the market The inquiry is CON-
paratiyely nominal Local breweres seem to obtain
sup lies almost without observation or remark.
Feed finds daily CUSTOM but the purchases when

and prices are both nominal. Boston advices report
fair demand from manufacturers, though values
show no improvement At the London auction
offerings buyers more discriminating, and sellers
| find it difficult to work off faulty descriptions.
