TRADE AND BUSINESS--Th operations
in trade during the. past week, have been fair
for the season. As we observe that some of our
wholesale dealers are already receiving access
ions to their stocks of Dry and Staple Goods,
adapted to the Spring trade, we may look for
increased activity in that department in short
time, especially as every thing looks fattcring
for an early and prosperous Spring trade. The
stocks Of Groceries and other departments, are
also daily increasing, and will be, ere long, very
complete and full.

the week, has been quite satisfactory, affording
fair business to dealers, both with the trade
and planters. In some Of the leading articles

ular change to note, though they are generally
held very firm. We refer to our quotations.
