No regular meeting of the merchants on
Change was held yesterday, but very fair
business was done in Produce, though the
New York telegraphic news was not very
favorable. Flour, superfne, was held at
81 70 to $4 so, with good demand at 1Oc.
below that price. Some i, 400 brls. were dis
posed of at $4 So to 81 70 and 81 rs; the
greater part of it at the first mentioned
price. Some 900 brls. Whisky sold at lac.
Grains and Groceries continued firm
Mess Pork was in good demand, with sales
at $15 20, holders asking 25c. more for good
brands at the close. A larger and pressing
demand was had for Bulk Meats, chiefly for
Sides, 69sc. being offered for March de-
livery. Green Meats were freely disposed of,
ard Lard was in good demand. The feeling
in the Provision market generally was quite
bueyant.

Thursdays New York Times observes in
respect to Wednesdays Stock Market:
The New Year opens an the Stock Ex-
change, and in Wall. street with rise of
nearly 8 per cent. on all Stock Securities and
Speculative Shares, and q mora hopeful and
buoyant feeling in financial and political af-
fairs generally. In reference to the latter,
the dispatches from Washington up to the
adjournment of tne Stock Exchange had not
taken very definite shape, but the fact that
the Administration at Washington have
taken decided stand for the preservation
Of the Federal revenue laws at Charleston,
and the defense of the flag and Constitution
of the Government inspires the most conf
dent belief that the worst of our political
trouble has been passed
At the early session Of the Stock Exchange
the prices were 2(D3 per cent. higher than
on Monday, but the business done was
scarcely above fair average, some uncer-
tainty obtaining as to the real purport of the
political rumors. At the Second Board the
demand from buyers was renewed with in
creased eagerness, and more than the usual
amount Of transactions was accomplished,
the market after the printed list continuing
to show much firmness. Later in the after
noon, the course Of prices was not materially
changed, the dealings, however, being less
excited. fl
Thursdays Tribune says of Wednesdays
Money matters in New York:
The business of clearinghouse was $22,-
296,935. The Specie received by the Kanga-
roo was, as we stated, over ESQ, 600 instead
of 10000 as printed. The amount in dol
lars is given at $463, 900. We hear of $780,
600 on the way. The drain to the South has
closed for the present. We can not learn
that any attention was paid to the advertise
ment giving the plumbers of the stolen
Bonds from the Interior Department, by
parties paying coupons to-day, except in the
case Of the case of the Merchants Bank,
which, under directions from the authorities
of Tennessee, declined to pay any coupon
appearing in the list. In Money matters
there is no change. The supply on demand
is superabundant at COZ per cent, and
strictly first class Paper goes at T9l2 per
cent, with some transactions as high as
l5(dls per cent.
