San Francisco. june 24th.

San Francisco, June oath.
Flour arrived quite freely to-day, re-
ceipts being 81 S44 quarters, largely Tor
the Central American and China trade,
which has improved of late Wheat Is
dull and unchanged in price. Barley is
quiet and easy at previous prices; there
is not a great deal of Old Crop left, and
New has not arrived to any extent Oats
remain steady as previously quoted.
Business all through is light
There is no limit to the price of Fancy
Asparagus; Common is sadly neglected,
with hardly an inquiry; the Gamers are
not buying, for lack of cans; 1856 boxes ar
rived. Rhubarb has been in slump for
some time past, and there is. no sign Of
an Improvement. Green Corn is dragging
at lower prices; the quality is fair, but not
what 1T should be.
Strawberries are weaker; some brougnt
less than the inside figures. Raspberr1eS
end Blackberries are also lower. Cher17eS
are stiff; very few Blacks onerlng. Some
mildewed Currants have TO go for less
than the low quotation The Apples arriv-
ing in small boxes are poor lot, belns
small and generally unattractive. Peaches
are doing well. PlumS in crates are, as
q rule, too green; There is a wide range
IN box Plums, as to quality.
About this time OF year fruit shipments
from the river points become quite heavy,
ana in consequence the steamer is late in
arriving here almost daily This plays
naVoc with the market, as the fruit is too
late for the morning trade, and has to be
sold in the afternoon at a sacrifice, or
held over until the next day, when it is
not worth much.
