NASHVILLE, TENN-- la
Theriver, which has been rising gradually
for week, is now in good navigabls condition
for steamboats, Of all classes The opening of
navigation has given considerable impulse to
business, and we may safely calculate uponin
creased activity in all the leading branches of
trade Numerous arrivals from below have
made large and important additions to the |
stocks of Groceries in market, and our mer- |
chants are able now to supply the extensive !
demand that prevails. Cotton spectators be-
ing able to effect shipments have bought more
freely this week, and given better prices. The
stringency in the money market continues, and I
il serious drawback upon trade.
There were no favorable advices from abroad
to cause an advance in prices, and the improve
ment is attributable exclusively to the eager
ness of buyers to fill up their invoices for ship
ment The sales to-day amount to.33 bales
at 6l1& @83S. 49,. Il
