Market Reports.

We have little to add to what we wrote yesterday in respect to grain, except that' the, inquiry manifested has further hardened the price of oats. The demand is strong, and outside of farmers' stocks holders of store parcels are equally disinclined to quote. Potatoes rule about 25b, while some growers are asking 2a 6d more.
