mans inactive, particularly Howard street, the old
stock of whch is light, and nelr supplies are coming

PROvISIONS-Thcreh has been moderate bust
ness doing in descriptions dnrlng the week, at
fall prices; but the stocks are either light kept
back 1--WE suspect the lattcr,) aud being in fewer
hands, the market is easier controlled, and desirable
prices more readily obtained. The receipts as yet
are very light from Pittsburgh, aud there are no
pubIished accounts enlightening the mind upon the
subject, bat that considerable parcels are in transit,
or Will be shortly destined for this market we are
assured by some of the cousiguees.
