Markets.

NEVADA, Jan 2l business active, and
heavy freishts of goods arriving from Marys-
vile and IIoboken during the past week =
The beautiful weather has much effect upon
prices, and merchants seem willing to make
sales at moderate profits; as the indications
are strongly in favor of constant commu-
nication with the river cities Prices have
fallen about 80 per cent. on principal arti-
clcs since the cessation of the storm.

JAN.l4-Wc have noticed an animated
business to day among jobbcrs, and purchas-
es for the interior are being freely made
The usual preparations for the sailing Of the
steamer have prevented any general trade,
,,ut the last few days activity must cause
dealers to enter the market early next week.
Full freights have gone forward inland
FLoUR-Dealcrs are willing to lncetthe
views of holders, and although the latter
would probably be inclined to reccdc some
what from asking rates of yesterday, yet
there does not seem any disposition TO pay
present prices for more thar tIhing guam
titv. We do not consider, with the stock of
bbls on the market, that American Flour
should value above Chile, and are satisfied
that n renewal of transactions will bring both
description, to the same figure, or sacks will
command the preference, if any NominalIy
high prices have been sustained whea il was
not desirable 10 make purchases on account
Of the difficulties Of shipment, but we notice
now that better opportunities exist for trade,
more anxiety is cvinc ID to realize, and hold
ers disposed to favor sales. The market to-
day has been easier for the purchaser, and
salos amount to about 5000 quarter sacks at
S32d33; 400 hbls " Hope Mills" per Thos

At length we have the pleasure of an
nouncing the most delightful weather The
streets are rapidly improving and pedes-
trians can now promenade the entire city
without danger OF getting mired,
The depreciation in staple articles which
we noticed in our last report still continues,
and we hope to notice further decline du-
ring the week 't saat.
Business for tho past three or four days
has been very heavy, especially from Neva-
da, Centrevillc and vicinity.
