During the week anding December ~, the ex-
ports ofproduee from New York to foreign ports,

exports on record During the corresponding
week In 1880, the exports were valued at a. 65s 3s5
and that included upwards Of $b00,cO0 Of cotton.
In order to give some Idea Of the general 9istribu-
tion Of the foreign demand, and that Europe does
want other than "breadstuHs' - rom us, We make
the following summary from the New York Ho73d,
ofsome Of the leading articles exported last week:

Notwithstanding the rumors put forth at Wash
tpgton relative to the speedy settlement Of our
dit1cnltfcB with ENGLAND, there is yet a nervous,
uneaey feeling In commercial circles which ren-
ders the leading markets unsteady and very sensi-
tivc. To-day at the opening the demand for nearly
all kinds Of breadstuffs WAS rery active at shade
over yesterdays prices; but the worn-out holders
exhibited readiness to sc at the advance offered,
buyers withdrew, ard prices rapidly fell. Wheat
declined E01c per hushel, with sales Of about
$1,000 bushels at GskG7oc for No Spring, and 634
GsHc for No. 2spring-the inside figures being the
closing and the outside the opening quotations.
Winter wheat WAS in good demand, with sales Of
No. Red at tic. Corn opened firm, with sales Of
Mixed in store at saA@239sc, bnt closed at a3c-a
decline Of 4@Hc per bushel. Oats were tfc lower,
with sales at 1891s4c. Rye was sold at SIC. Bar
ley was firm. Hishwines steady at 13c. Seeds
were quiet aud unchanged.
The receipts Of Live Hogs to-day amounted to
only 4,7s9 and nnder an active Inquiry both by
shippers and packers, note an advance in prices
Of SC per 1c0 1bswith sales Of about 1900 head at
$2A@2.70 gross. The bulk Of the sales however,
were at $2.50 for bacon hoss and 81 GODe,6 for
heasy-eztra lots bringing $a.70.
The Provision market was steady and firm for
Mess Pork, for which there Is still an active de-
maud on Cauadian account- To-day about 800 brls
Of Mess we're sold at SO. so9s 10 sud 50 for lot
Of 100 b1ls eco lbs to be packed in). A lot Of a0o
brls light mess was sold at $780, Bulk meats arc
quiet. with GALES Of 200 Hams in dry salt at s3sc
packed. Green meats continue in fair demand and
steady at &c for shoulders and Sc for Hams. Lard
is less inquired for and the market is duh. with
gales Of about 200 pkgs at 6sGTc for prime steau,
| and kettle-rendered. English meats are in de-
mand, but the offerings are light. There is also
como inquiry for prime Mess Pork, but the stock
is light and 1t Is held subject to eastern orders.

It may be surprising statement but never

indu'gent. 1nthe light opera Of Don R1squale
she is perfectly at home, and although her
laek Of power was painfully evident and her
execution not always perfect, still she amply
atoned for these fittings By her animation and
viyacity and the hearty spirit with which she
rendered Norma. AS the actress, she was per
fectly bewitching. Light comic opera Is evi-
dently her forte. Therefore she excellcd as
No1iaa hut failed as Leonoru.
Susini as the i" Don't was inimitablc. Con-
sidered in every point Of view, VIC should place
him as 4 basso Fup}usado, even abore Junca
or Formcs. While lacking the power Of the
former and the breadth and depth Of
the latter-and like each, singing false some
times-stiu his voice is one Of wonderful
purity and hexibillty, and his execution mar
Telous. Joined to his vocal abilities, lie adds
splendid dramatic powers, and is one Of the
best actors-f not the best-in comedy, upon
the operatic stage.
Bdgnoli acted horribly and sang diyinely,
MancuBt improved very much upon his first
appearance. He is 4 very graceful actor, and
rendered his part 7ery aceeptably. Every
way, the opera was q success, and everybody
was delighted
Mollenhauer repeated the "Carnival'' but
his most pleasing performance was his exquis-
ite rendering Of Schubert's :" Ave Maria"
The orchestra, being portion Of the Phil
harmonic orchestra, rendered very effective
service in accompaniment, and are worthy o.
Ill credit for the very excellent manner In
which they played, considering the short time
given them for rehearsal.
On Tuesday evening next, the Troupe vii
giye an ope1atic performance at McVlcker't
Theatre, the particulars Of which Will appca!
