CIEcINEATI MARKETs.-The Commercial
of Friday has the following m reference TO
hogs and other matters:
The most noticeable feature in the market
to-day was decided reaction in the pork
trade, with marked decline in prices. The
scarcity OF money and the gloomy prospects
in regard to the river are operating unfavora-
bly, and taking away all disposition heretofore
manifested to purchase; and a slight increase
in the arrival of hogs is producing change
the views of those who had considerable faith
in short crop day or two ago. The utter
impossibili:y Of obtaining advances on the
hog product is forcing parties to try and make
cash sales, and, in order to succeed, considera-
bly, lower prices have to be submitted to.
