lesVeIuay was TdtneI more quiet tnun Vh
any previous day of the week in the Bank
ing quarter. The movement in Money was
light and the market easy at l04l2 per
cent. at the regular houses, all of which in-
formed US that they had less approved names
than they could do at the rates mentioned.
The stock of Currency was good, though
not very large, and about the same as held
at the commencement of the week.
No alteration was apparent in Eastern
Exchange, rates ruling at k9% buying
and Is premium selling; several drawers re-
others gave % on all points but Baltimore
for prime bills.
Gold was very quiet, and we heard of no
transactions worthy of mention. Uncur-
rent Money was without variation; West
ern Currency being readily purchased by
the Brokers at ! discount.
In New Orleans Sight-checks and Time
bills on the East and South there was hardly
any thing doing at our last quotations.
The news by the Canadian, reported in
this mornings PRESS, is unfavorable to
Breadstuffs, and had its effect upon the mar
ket here, causing continued dullness and
unsettled feeling yesterday in Flour. The
only sales were $50 brls. superfne, being
quoted as before, at 81 80(04 90 and extra
to fancy at $4 90@6 25.
Whisky opened dull, but after the advance
reported by the dispatches in New York,
our market improved, and 400 brls. sold at
16Kc.
In Provisions there was no changes a fair
demand still existing for mess Pork at SIT
S70lS; Bacon Shoulders at SIC. A lot of
Lard-1O0 tierces-deliverable in November,
was disposed of in advance at l0@c.
Groceries were unchanged in price. Coffee
was in quick demand, with an inadequate
supply, and was taken as rapidly as It ar
rived at l5@l5Mc. The prices of Wheat
continued nominal, difference of ease. per
bushel still dividing buyers and sellers.
Corn, Rye, Oats and Barley were still steady
and in fair request.
Hogs continued quiet and dull yesterday,
lO@l5c. being still the difference between
the views of buyers and sellers. The same
disposition that has been mentioned before,
to keep operations secret, was manifested,
and we only heard of q sale of 200 head of
2OO-pound Hogs at Sc 62% for early Novem-
Der and one of 400 head, same figures, for De-
cember-up to the goth inst.-at Sc 3715.
