Review Of .sha Market EOr the Week ending
Aug. 3, 1882.
Dizziness has continued 10 characterize the mar
kOts generally, and there have been but few ma
terial changes in any department Of trade, either
as regards prices or demand, since our last. There
has been a better demand for the leading articles
Of Groceries, and the indications are that this trade
will open earlier than usual, and be heavier than
in any former season. Flour has dragged heavily
for good family brands: tho demand Is equal to
the supply, but shipping qualities are neglected,
and could not be disposed Of except at material
decline. In Provisions, lard and bacon hams are
the only articles that have attracted much atten-
attention, and both have advanced in value. The |
demand is for the Eastern markets.
From tho country we continue to hear very un- |
favorable accounts relative to Corn. In some sec.
tons, the plants dying in consequence of the
pFOtracted dry weather. aud the Chanecs are now
decidedly against an average crop.
The river has continued 70 rccede slowly, and
there Is now only about three feet water on the
| principal bars hence 70 Louisville.
The weather at present writing Ia cloudy, with
some appearance Of rain. Since last Friday the
temperature has been quito cool, and on Monday
morning fires we're necessary to comfort.
