JOURNAL OFFICE,
Tuesday Evening. July l6.

Since our last weekly issue light receipts and
ayenerai dullness have characterised our mar
ket Many causes have contributed to produce
this result Up to the commencement of the
week farmers were engaged harvesting and the
subsequent hot weather and the exaggerated re-
ports of the cholera in our city have, to a very
considerable extent, deferred them from bringing
their grain into market.
So far as we are able to learn, the wheat crop,
not only in this section, but throughout the whole
State, is good; being of more than an average
yield. The present growing crops promise well
recent rairs having fallen in different parts and
improved them.
The grocery market remains without any ma
terial alteration in the leading aricles-there
being but little fuctuation in the same market at
New Orleans
The rivers continue low and falling. Nav-
cation of the Wabash having been much inter
rupted on account of a want of water
