Since the Aing Of the steamer oi the 10th inst there
have been several arrivals, inducing - customary
upon the receipt Of fresh goods an increased ACTIVITY In
transactions, but in no way bene0ing tbe market or
the prospects Of holders The trade that has been dose
has there increased requirement from tho coun
try 10 bring the obbers into the market except Tor cur
rent supplies Candies have moved more , Freely .nan

cases are Arm, with sales at full figure; in other kinds
nothing OF consequence has been done. Tho main fea-
lures OF trade much the last had occasion
to note The country demand still continues backward
and money comes in slowly The arrivals that occurred
still leave large fleet due, and buyers operate very
limited scale, under the apprehension that any moment
large accession OF supplies may reach port from which
there will be more goods Offering, in all probability than

From the San Francisco Herald Oct 27.1
The markets have been unchanged from day TO day,
and so monotonous that to say anything new and have
correct, would be very difficult matter yet il is expect
ed Of u.s. we sometimes think to predict the markets for
long period in the future That we are more able toudge
correctly as far information extends, than many
dealers, who swayed to extent by the circum
stances surrounding them, We believe for have
special interest at stake let the table Of prices which
way mays and as far as We warranted by the cir
cumstances in forejudgng the tendencies we shall have
no hesitation in so doing and give at the time the
grounds upon which we may base our opinion.

chants the wharves and the corners seemingly
gagged in discussing something in very confidential tone
