The river for twenty hours past hs,
been rising slowly, and there is water enough
on the Shoals for low water steamers.
Business this week has been dull, the pres
surs in the money market, the low stage oil
water in the river, and limited supplies of lead
ing articles of produce, alloperating unfaEora-
bly, upon it
4 Coston--Ws hear of no speculative move
ments in the Cotton market. The prices
which prevail in Liverpool do not justify those
paid in New Orleans, and leave no margin for
profits; consequently, unless there iss adeeided
advance in the former place or adecline in the
latter spectators must continue to hold off,
! The sales this week do not 60 over so bales at
f7@73ac. The inability to make shipments
cause cotton to come in slowly; and although
! there is more at gins than there was at this
I time last season, the receipts here are lighter
being about 100 bales.
| Tobacco-There has been nothing done
since our last in Tobacco.
Flour-Ths demand for -four is steady and
stocks ample No change in prices.

Bacon-There has been falling of in the
the sales of Bacon this week, and prices are
lower We quote hams at $3.50; shoulders
&c; sides 7@8c.
Corn--Continues scarce, and there is dss-
position to advance prices, which have recently
been shade above those which ruled last
month. Some holders are asking as high As
S4@414 p Dbl, though we hear Of no heavy
transactions atrthese figures.
Ssls--The demand for salt has been active,
and the sales have left barely two weeks sup I
ply in market. Prices are unchanged. y I
Pork-Packers are not purchasing, conse-
quently prices are not settled. There has
been good deal in market, and sales in small |.
parcels effected at AZ @6c; some holders are
offering &c for best quality corned. But these
prices are not to be received as the market val

Hogs and Cattle.-The weather having be- az
'me favorable, packing operations have fairly nj
but the market for hogs has not nj
ct fairly opened. The unsettled state of f. tt
.nces deters packers from operating, and most al
the business doing is on account of drovers. Pr
he views of buyers and sellers are various re
1T everything is conspiring to depress the
ews of the former The sales as far as heard
do not exceed 500 head; and these were
Iiefy disposed of at So 621s for lots avera-
ng 1870 lbs. Kentuckians are mostly asking
ON $4@4 so, and the disposition to pack in
eference to accepting anything below the in
lie figure is general. In beef cattle very 1T
change has taken place. Prices range from pc
up to 81 per 100 lbs net. Packers are pay IA,
