DITNT.DIN, August 2.—The keenness displayed by buyers lately Ins now somewhat toned down. At the same time a considerable amount of business is being transacted at prices nearly on a par with those obtaining last week. Prime milling and heavy bright feed command most attention, although all sorts meet with buyers, who, however, are not quite so ready to give the prices paid during the last two or three weeks, while holders are firm in their demands for late values. The quantity for immediate sale on growers' account is now reduced to very small dimensions, Quotations : Prime milling, stout, and bright, 2s Id to '2s lvd: best stout and bright feed, 2s (I'd to 2s ljd ; medium to good, Is lid to 'Js; inferior to medium, Is 9d to Is lid; Danish Is fld to 2s ; long Tartarian for seed, 2s to 2s 3d (ex store); sacks extra, net.
