Review Of A' ,Es,ssss EsI.ssss s. @; ss Week ending


Il GENERAL REMARKS Excepting an advance
IN Bacon and Sugar, and Mossses, no material
change has taken place In the markets since our last
weekly review. ln most departments Of trade,
business has continued quite brisk, and with few
exceptions the markets exhibit arm and healthy
tone. Tho delay In the opening Of the Miami
Canal 10 Toledo, will cause but slight iuconveni.
eucs 10 the lake trade, as goods can be shipped
about as low BY Railroad to sandusky, and thence
BY lake, as BY capaL Groceries San b. sSippsd by
this route, and laid down In Chicago and Detroit
At about $50 per 100 Ps.
The low rates OF freight iIom this city TO New
York via Railroads aud Canals, are attracting
general attention throughout the South and very
large amount Of fieight may be expected from that
section which has heretofore been forwarded via
New Orleans. Indeed the prospect is that both
/ Railroads and Canals will have about as much
business as they can properly accommodate.
The river continues at good navigabe stage;
there being ample depth OF water for all boating
purposes, and during the last 4s hours IL has risen
twenty inches.
