Remarks. The Reports of Saturday, Sunday

having reached three hundred and upwards, the
subject of business appeared to be wholly sus-
pended, all were occupied with the alarming state
of the city: the number of persons attending the
Exchange on Tuesday, at half past two, when
the greatest number assembled was only twenty
eight. The report of cases since Tuesday has
gradually improved. Merchants appear cheerful,
aud more and more persons attend daily at the
Exchange, and business yesterday appeared TO en-
gross more of their attention. 1t Is the prevail

small sales of Corn Meal at SS,S7 on time, and
one parcel at rather higher rates. Our Stock OF
Flour is unusually light. There have been no re-
cepts of new Flour from the South.
