PORTLAND. Mch 80. 800
In one or two instances fair business is re-
ported. but this situation does not prevail gen.
orally. on the contrary dizziness appears to be
more conspicuous than anything else among
obbers, and the vo ume of trade for March has
been very disappointing. Flour is quiet and
unchanged. but prices are held firmly by the
combination of millers. Corn and Oats continue
steady with light call, Sugars are 1-16c
higher. and the week closes decidedly strong
the deficiency of stock in the markets of the
world is becoming very marked, and still better
figures are looked for. III Provisions, we note
another drop in Pork. ranging now as low s it
has for long time past, and many of the large
buyers who believe tn t bottom has been
reached for this article, are stocking up. Lard
is also weak at the recent decline. Molasses is
firm and higher for fancy. Teas quiet and steady
with fair demand. Seeds steady; as the wealth
becomes more Seasonable the demand increas-
es. Raisins unchanged but the feeling is firm.
Eggs are quiet and unchanged, the market is
not SO gutted as last, though the supply is
equal to the demand. Cheese unchanged. APP
pies dull but steady. Oranges firm. The com
ing season for lumber promises to be one OF I'M
usual activity in this vicinity; values are much
firmer; dealers were advised to-day of an adj
vance of ST 6oas2 y NJ on white-N ood while
