Those discrepancies are t of several years. Just as it is impoesiblo to drawan abeolutely straight lino,ora perfect Bquare, 50 i8 it impossiblo to measure or weigh over a large quantity of grain several times and arrive accurately et the same result any two times. Tlint & Thompson heve handled above 45,000,000 bu of grain of all kinds eince they started their houses, giving some 300,000 weigh- ings in and the samé number out, or an averazo of less then anounceof errorto each dou- ble draft. The scales are proba- bly true to munch less than that amonnt, but grain loses or gains in weight ac- cording to ihe amountof moisturein the at- mosphere ; andin that fact wo have ihe proba- ble cause of the difference. It is, however, re- markable that the difference should be one of excezs—not of deficit, One would think thattho innumerable rats that infest our elevators would diminish the stocks of grain by ameasurable quantity each year, bubit seems they Go not, and we suggest that the poor rats heve now an opportunity to sue for libelin the many cases ‘where this has been charged against them. Can it be that the true office and place in nature of these vermin (7) is misunderstood ? ‘The Evening Provision Boerd adjourned last evening from the Gardner House to Twenty- second street, after a rather stormy session, in which 7 voted to remain and 4 insisted on moving. It is stated that tho proprietors of o liquor-stand near the now querters subscribed $50 towards the expenses of moving, and o drug store furnished &25 for the samo object. We can understand the first; but the second isan enigma. On the profits of what articles that §25 will be made g;nd, we are at a loss to dia- ink sods water in winter, cover. They don't and they don't meet in summer, » THE MARKETS. The leading produce markets were rathermore ective to-day, and breadstuffs averaged some- what higher, while provisions were easier. Our receipte of grain, though as large as wanted, aro rather light, and it is believed that many coun- try ovners are disposed to hold back as much as pozsible for higher prices. The ehipping move- ment by rail is satisfactory in volume, consider- ing tho dificulty of obtaining cars, which lin- ders shipments from being more extensive. Groceries met with only & moderate demund, and, with the oxception of . slight_decline in choice New Oleans molasses, wero withoat quo- table change in values. Sugdrs continue weak and unsettled, with o tendencyto still lower prices. Coffees were strong with an upward in- clination. Syrups, teas, sonps, rice, and moet other goods in the lisf, rulod 'easy. Tho do- mand for staple and fancy dry goods continues Eﬁod, for the season, and firmness provails in all departments of tho market. No change of importance was developed in the butter and cheege markots, the former article being fairly activo and firm, while the latter remains dull and weak. Fish were in light request only, but were firmer, owing to light stocks. Dried fruits are moving on & Liberal sczle et the quoted pri- ces. Hey Wwas ezsier under & of- ter supply, but not materially lower. The hido apd leather markets continne active end firm. Oil remains quict, with prices gen- erally oasy ; the exception being carbon and tur- pentine, both of which are strong. Lard oil is tending lower, in sympathy with lard. Tobscco and wood were quoted steady. Tho lumber trade was fair for the eesson, prices ruling steedy. Building materils were quiet and un- changed. Cooperage was in moderate request and steady. Metals and tinners’ stock continues to rule moderately active and unchanged. Iron, _pteel and nails have dealined. owing to & reducs e growth somo _profit is. netted by the operation; gometimes not.
