PITTSBURGH MARKETS.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
1.
' THURSDAY, Feb. 25,1569.
The markets in a general way present
but little that is really new or impOrtant.
Business, generally, continuesl dull;
though strong. hopes of a good Bpring
trade are entertained, and there is\ now
a pretty- good demand for Pittsburgh
manufactures, particularly iron, nails
etc etc. -The demand, howeve4 for
almost everything seems to be confined
mainly to supplying immediate wants,
and as a general thing, the policy of our
merchants is to carry as light stocks as
possible, owing to the uncertainty and
confusion which prevails in regard to
-the future.
APPLE BUTTER—Firmer: 75 to 85c.
APPLES—The cold weather has stop
ped shipments, and as a coniequence
our market is almost bare, and prices are
higher. We now quote at s4@}o per bbl
for common to choice.
'BUTTER—Prime to choice Roll Butter
is in fair demand at 38@40.
BUCKWHEAT FLOUR—DuII at 33.1,
BEANS—$3,5O@$4 per bushel.
CRANBERRIES—SaIes at $lB to $2O.
CORNMEAL—SI to $l,lO per bushel.
CHEESE—SaIes of New York Goshen,
It 2334@ 2 4.
CARBON OIL—Is a shade easier but
unchanged at 34@3414, in a jobbing way.
DRIED FRUlT—Peaches steady at 14
@l5 for quarters; 16@17 for- mixed. and
18(2.20 for"halves, as to quality. Apples
11(012 cts. -
EGGS,--Fresh packed in good demand
at 25.
FLOUR—DuII and neglected but un
, changed. Spring Wheat $7,00@57,50, and
1 Winter Wheat at $8,00@8,50. Rye Flour
$7,50. The Pearl Mill quote their best
brands made of the best Wheat, as fol
lows: Extra Family Flour, in barrels,
at $9,30, and, in sacks, $9,00 per barrel;
Double Extra Family, in barrels, $lO,OO,
and, in sacks, $9,70 per barrel; Spring
Wheat Flour, in barrels, $7,80, and, in
sacks, $7,50 per barrel. The City Mills
quote prices as follows: Extra 'Family,
(Winter) in barrels, $9,30, and, in sacks,
$9,00 per barrel; Double Extra Family,
in barrels, $9,80, and. in sacks, $9,50 per

FEATHERS—Live Geese Feathers
quoted at 75@ SOcts, to the trade, and
the usual advance in a retail way.
GROCERIES—The Sugar market was
again firmer today, especially refined,
"bards" being quoted at 20;4 in New
• York. The demand, however, at these
prices, is by no means active, our gro
1, cers generally be loth to take hold, being
apprehensive that the excitement flow so
strong may result in a collapse. While
it is evident as anything can be, that the
stocks are very much reduced, there is
evidently some Sugar in the hands of
speculators, and whenever this is
, thrown upon the market, a reaction will
doubtless be the result.
GRAlN—Wheat is dull and nominally ,
unohanged at $1,55 for No. 1 Winter, and
for No. 1 Sring. Oats quiet but
• steady at 65@65 o p n track and 67@68 in

ai $2,10@2,20 for good to choice.

note in the demand and while the mar
ket is dull with a supply largely in ex
-cess of the 'demand, prices are un
changed—s2o@2s, on wharf, as to quality.
