NOW Orleans Rice NIarket.

NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 4.-The clean rice
market during the past week has been very
quiet, which was to be expected during the
interval Immediately preceding the advent OF
new crop. Buyers have limited their takings
10 the extent OF pressing needs only, hence
the aggregate movement has been very small.
While there has been an Absence Of oil brisk
ness, there has been "a good inquiry for good
rice of undOubted quality, and whenever such
grades have been offered they have sold readl-
". stocks have been very light, however, and
rood grades have been exceptionally scarce,
the few mills running at irregular intervals
affording but poor assortment. Prices have
been steady, and new crop goods will doubt
less bring an advance. Rough rice has been
nominal, the receipts having been insignin-
cant. Ali offerings Of good rice were prompt
bought up. although few buyers were on the
market. The growing crop 10 doing finely,
although backward. and numerous samples
in the sheaf are daily received. The first lot
of the season Is expected daily, but IL will be
some weeks before receipts become general
pieatVklie.
