RICHMOND MARKETS. October 10.
No new FEATURE hes appeared 10 our market for
some time. Aksr period Of great activity. the
fall buslness has siackesed of little. possibly be-
cause many persons have delayed coming until the
great Fair Of Monday week. when there viii be an
immense couvocation Of people In this city.
Money b very scarce, and the Banks discount
Ing very luie Nevertheless there 10 still that con.
di,ion OF solvency and confidence which makes the
pressure Of this year Indeed remarkable.
Flour has remained without change for several
days; but the market seems more qaiet. The
amount of receipts of both Flour and Wheat. In
this as well AZ all of the principal markets, are small
beyond example. The stocks Of Breadsau!fs 10 the
large cities must be exceedingly limited this win.
ter. This fact is probably owing chiefly to the
storing of grain, by Farmers for better prices and
we conjecture the stock Of old, next spring. will
be uncommonly large.
These quotations are Wholesale. For ana,
orders higher prices win be charged.
