. CHATTANOOGA, TENN.---Collon. We have +!
nothing 10 say in reference 10 COTTON, except
that il continues 10 come up briskly. The
recent accession of four new steamers to our
4rade, causes il 10 arrive here faster than it
can be sent off by The Railroad, with the
presd ont force Of Freight Cars, al the COM
man4 Of the Agent al our Depot. The re-
ceips of Cotton since our last, amount 10
about 400 bales.
w are informed by some of our oldest
business men, thai there is more Country |
Prod uce on our market at this time, than
was ever known 10 be al once, al any previ-
Gus period. Our spacious warehouses are
cramned 10 repetition, and every steamer
that comes from above, increases the guam
lily. In addition 10 Ibis, sinee'our !asl pub
licati on, some fifty or sixty Produce Boats
have arrived. most of them heavily freighted
with assorted cargoes. Notwithstanding
the Unprecedented quantity of produce on
our market. holders sill refuse 10 lower their
prices; bus This stale of things cannot exist
much longer-lhe prices which leading ar
licles Of country produce are commanding
in the Southern markets, will not justify
the high prices which holders are asking
here. In consequence Of this state OF
things, thcre is bu. litlIe doing in our mar
ket, except in The retail way.
We do not change any OF our figures this
week. We wo4ld remark that Corn Meal
IS very scarce.
