Chicago, Illinois and Wisconsin currency
has declined to &c discount. Missouri sells
at + discount.
The weather, during the forepart of the
week, was hot and very sultry, but a sweep
ing rain storm on Saturday produced quite
a change, and since then it has been cool
and pleasant, with a temperature down to
go or 10.
Flour advanced in the early part of the
week, under the operation of the English
news, and superfue sold at S. 3O@5 40,
and at one time s. so was asked, but the
news both foreign and domestic, toward the
close of the week, being unfavorable, the
market lost its buoyancy, and at the close
yesterday superfne could not have been
sold to any extent at So 20@5 so, indeed
so unsettled was the market, that prices
must be called merely nominal
Wheat advanced to 81 l4(G}I % for strict
ly prime red and white, but at the close it
fell back &c per bushel and closed dull and
heavy, buyers holding back.
Corn has been very scarce, and distillers
have found it very difficult to obtain sup
plies, and ear advanced to 47c., and shelled
55057c., and there are more buyers than
sellers, ut these rates.
Oats in good demand at SOC, and rye in
fair demand at 65@66c. Small parcels prime,
for SEED brought zoe,
Prime fall barley has been in good de-
mand the greater part of the week, and ad-
vanced to SOC.
Whisky advanced to Gle, but fell back
zoe. The supply has been light and hardly
equal to the demand.
In the Provision line, the only article
which has been in demand is clear bacon
sides, for which there has been a pressing
demand at J, and at the close nearly all
in the market had been bought; the sales
during the week add up $50 hhds Mess
pork has been offered freely at $40 %, and
no doubt SI9 would have been accepted at
the close. Bacon shoulders ruled dull at 81
(198 which were the asking rates Rib
sides are held at lie but the few sales made
were at llB. Bulk shoulders sold at 81
which is decline. About 300 bbls and
| tierces lard sold at 1873, and 600 kegs at
l22c. Butchers lard is selling at IL, buy
ers furnishing barrels
There has been a good demand for mess
pork for future delivery and about 2, 900
brls. sold for December at SIG 1901.
Green hams sold to the extent of 80,
pieces, for the first three weeks of Novem-
Der, at $50. The demand for hogs for flu
ture delivery hiss been pressing, and but
| few offering. $500 head sold during the
week at SC SOFAS 60 for November, and at
the close these rates would have been paid
| for the first half of December, and we I'M
derstand that Sc 70 was offered on Monday
! for good lot for the first two weeks of No
vemher. The number offering has been
| small, and there is, evidently, a far more
! general desire TO buy than to sell. Stock
hogs sold to the extent of 1000 heads, at

FROM the Gin. Price Current, Sept. 15ls.
Business Summary for the Past


There has been quite an active demand
for money during the week, fully up to,
and occasionally, in excess of the supply, so
that there has been some stringency in the
market, and good paper has been offered
more freely outside, at l2@l5 per cent
The demand is partly owing TO the increased
activity in business and partly to the scare
ity of currency aud it is but reasonable to
expect that these causes will be soon re-
moved; and, there fore, the effect disappear.
Time bills on the East have ruled at higher
rates, and may be quoted at SOLO for thir-
ty and sixty day. On New Orleans 10 per
cent. for good bills, is the leading rate.
Sight exchange on the East has been dull
throughout the week, and rates somewhat
irregular, though not quotable lower; but
the scarcity of currency induced bankers 10
sell exchange, at times, below the current
rates. Not much doing in New Orleans
We quote;
