II II PETROLEUM Il mg OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE, TUESDAY, August 10, 1869. . The oil market was considerably firmer today, though, as has been the case for some time past, there was not much done; there was some inquiry, bat prices, notwithstanding they were a shade higher than those of yesteiday, did not seem' to be satisfactory, and, as a consequence, the volume of busi ness was again light. It seems to be the foreign ad; ices, that are stiffening the market just now Antwerp nailing still further 'advanced,, and those who have re fi ned are mot disposed to sell, feeling pretty sanguinsi that prices will be much better withinlthe next thirty or sixty. days. .."At this 'time last year, relined was worth.considenably more than it is now, while prude was lower. The fact!hat it cannot. be made at pres ent price of crude, Rids many to be lieve that refined must, of necessity, go higher. Not a single sale reported; Smarket firm but very dull—very few buyers and not many sellers. Spot is held at 'l5, with no buyers at over 143.1 and not many at that, and it is also true that there is not much offering at 15 or any other figure. We were reported an offer to buy 1,000 each August t 9 December at 15, without finding a saler. Oil City, quoted at $5,90©6. REFINED We can report two lots of 500 each, on spot, at 31%, and the same figure offered for 5,000 more. We are cognizant of 52 francs having been offered for a cargo, on r spot, at Antwerp—other, telegrams quoted at 52g. There is room for a still further, advance at Antwerp, as oil is yet relatively higher here than there. LUBRICATING OILS.
