WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE MARKET.
TRUE WING OFFICE,
NASHVILLE. Aug. Q. 1885.


The weather since our last review, has been ex-
cessively wet The fall of rain has been very heavy,
though, with the exception Of some little damage
to wheat lying out, 10 material injury is expected
to result
The river has been swelling under the recent
heavy rains, and there is now plenty of water for
small class boats. There is no business for them,
however, and there has been but one arrival and
departure in a week.
Business is quite active usual at this season
Of the year. The trade in Produce is quite heal
thy, and in Groceries there is considerable activity.
The Wholesale Dry Goods Merchants are receiving
and opening their stocks for the fall trade, and Will
be ready in few days to receive their customers.
COTTON-There is nothing doing in this mar
ket Prices esewere well sustained, and the
prospect now is that the market will open at good
figures. The growing crop promises well, though
come uneasiness is felt lest the profusion of RAIN
may cause it to grow TOO rankly in the weed.
ToBACCO-There is nothing doing in Tobacco.
COFFEE-Tbe stock is ample for present de-
mands, and prices are unchanged.
FEATHERS are selling at 25c, slight decline
from our previous outside figures.
GRAIN-The trade in wheat is quite active, and
considerable quantities are changing hands at 49,
In Corn there is nothing doing, and will not be in
this market until the new crop begins to come in.
We quote 65 for yellow, and 20 for good white
OATS are offered freely, and generally taken at 4Oc.
FLOUR-Therc is no heavy business doing
The arrivals are mostly for the retail trade, and
sales are made at s.. 5Oa6.Oo per Dbl, and $2.5oa3
per bag of 100 weight.
GINSENG has dropped down to l5c.
PROVISIONS-The trade in BACON is quite brisk,
and lots are readily taken at figures for which
see Price Current. BUTTER is selling at l2ial5 in
lots to dealers, and 20a25 in the market. LARD
unchanged, IOall wholesale and loo at retail
MEAL commands. 75aS0 at wholesale, and 500 in
market. Eggs are selling at wholesale for &c. and
10 retail.
VEGETABLES AND FRUIT-0ur market con-
tnues to be well supplied with vegetables and fruits
at low prices.
CHICKENS are worth 10 Is according, to size,
the latter figure generally obtained
Our country friends should bear in mind that the
city demand is sufficient to consume all the good
Butter, Lard, Fresh Eggs and vegetables they can
bring, and that the price depends greatly on the
quality. Consumers do not stand upon &c a
pound on an extra article of Butter and Lard,
and other things in proportion.

The Potato crop in Ireland.

The Dublin correspondent of the London
Times says: Mid,July is now past, and for the
first time these seven years it has been rendered
memorable by the absence of the fatal blight
which for succession of seasons destroyed tie
staple food of the Irish peasantry. The state
of the weather, nevertheless, for the last week
or ten days, has not been as favorable as could
be wished at this critical juncture. There has
been great deal of thunder and lightning,
followed or accompanied by the usual heavy
showers of raiE, and in some districts crops Of
all kinds have suffered more or less damage
Still chose storms have been by no means gen.
eral throughout the country, and there is yet
every reason 10 hope for the realization Of the
prospect of an carly and abundant harvest
The Cork Exporter thus speaks Of the potato

bic in Ireland, and bringing with il, through many
dreary year-the renew al Of bitter anmosities and
party striie-of late, unhappily bringing with even
more unvaryng certainty, calamity Of another kind,
in the recurrence OF that mysterious blight which
has fallen 80 heavily on the poor mans food. Since
the first failure Of the potato crop IN this island we
believe that the date referred to has never passed
without distinct and unmistakeable signs that the
disease in question had appeared with greater or
less severity. This year. for the FIRST time since the
fatal season in lS47, We have passed the dreaded
day without, so far as can learn, any authenti-
Gated proof Of It's return and all our observations
and all the reports received by us lead believe
that up TO the present moment the crop is In per-
feet health and vigor. We cannot indeed be sure
that il is safe; but there does seem every ground
for confidence in its safety, and people most given
20 uneasness begin TO breathe freely, that the
10th Of July is over without any sseerained injury.
Let us hope sincerely that the trust now expert
enced will be well founded
