Wheat, in small lots, has been selling in the streets for several days past at $12 per bushel. As the millers readily give one barrel of flour for five bushels of wheat, we can see no reason for the exorbitant prices asked for flour. Choice wheat at $15 per bushel, would make the best family flour worth but $75 per barrel.
