RECEIPTS OF WHEAT. 

 Below we give a statement of receipts of 

 Wheat in this city by Railroads and Canal, each 

 week for the year, beginning on the 1st of July 

 last. (In an annual statement published on the 

 4th inst., an error occurred by adding the re- 

 ceipts of one quarter twice, which the present 

 statement corrects.) It will serve to compare 

 with the receipts of the present year :
