The New York dispatches to the Chamber
Of Commerce were favorable. Flour was so
firmly held here that buyers would not buy
largely, and little was done in consequence.
Superhne was held at $4 5O-a trife more
than purchasers were willing to pay. The
sales of the day were about 1900 barrels.
Whisky was in good demand, and adj
vanced 14c. Groceries were unaltered
Wheat was in good demand at 95c,@$l 05
for prime red and white, but an advance of
3@5c. was asked. Corn and Oats were. frmJ
Rye was higher, and holders of Barley put
up their figures 5c- to which buyers did not
accede. .s.....a...
Mess Pork remained in good demand, about
1000 brls., part country, selling at SIS.
Prime city brands were held at $l525. Lard
and bulk Meats were without change. The
Hog market was more excited than for weeks
past, opening buoyant, and prices going
higher. About :, 800 head sold at $5 55 to

Thursdays New York papers say of
Wednesdays Stock market:
There was an exceedingly light business
at the Stock Board this morning, many of
the operators not having returned from
their Christmas jauuts. The aggregate of
transactions is scarcely up to that of the
Second Board in periods of activity. The
general tendency of the market was down
ward, and the purchases were mainly to
cover maturing contracts. There was but
little disposition shown to operate on time
either in buyers or sellers options. Be-
tween the Boards the market was steady but
inactive. At the Second Board there was
comparatively more activity and stronger
feeling, which continued uD to the close OF
business in the street. The transactions con-
tinued to be mainly for cash. Some of the
bears were offering long sellers options, but
there was no market for them. For State
|
day; Virginias selling at 49, CALIFORNIA;, 9814;
Kentuckies, l00, and Missouris, SO. The
maturing contracts in these Bonds require
untainted ones for delivery, and this descrip-
ton being scarce, holders are enabled tC
make a better market. Governments are
steady at 90, Fives 1871, and 95 for Fiyes
1874 At the close the market was rising
one.
! The names of the houses in the Cuba trade
which have suspended in New York
, within the past day or two, are Nor
Brothers y Navarro, Eladio Rubira, Macias
CANARY, Albert Horn, and Dyckman, lat
Curtis 4 Dyekman. All were substantia
: houses; their aggregate liabilities mu:
D amount to several millions of dollars. Tn

necessary to add, have been caused by tb
Q fall in Sugar. 81
