COOPERAGE--The market is dull, and
prices nominally unchanged, We quote.

CHEESE The market has ruled dull,
during the greater portion of the week, but
at the close we noticed some improvement
in the demand, but prices are unchanged.
The sales add up 1000 boxes at SIC. for
Western Reserve, Sc. for Hamburg, and
l01zc. forsEnglish Dairy.
COFFEE-The demand has been mod
crate the past week, and the market rather
quiet, but very firm, at full rates. The sales
during the week add up 1900 bags, at
l2%9l3c. for fair, l314c. for good and
l3%@l3Ac. for choice. In the small way,
&c. higher is obtained.
COAL-A very dull market and the de-
mand higher, at previous prices.
EGGS-The market is steady and has
been SO all the week, at lie. per dozen, ship
pers' count.
FL0UR-The demand has been very light
all the week, and toward the close the mar
ket became extremely dull, and prices, to a
great extent nominal. The arrivals from
both the foreign and domestic markets,
have been quite discouraging since our last,
which is the cause of the depression in the
market. We quote superhne at 81 6094 65,
and extra to extra family, at $4 s095 25.
FEATHERS-A continued dull market,
without change in prices. The dealers pay
35@4oc. per pound, according to quality, on
arrival.
ChOi LO-A very gOou uemdnu LOT green
Apples during the week, and prices are
higher. We quote good to prime Northern
at 81 1902 25; Western are nominal; none
in market. A fair demand for dried Apples
at &c. per pound; also, for dried Peaches at
4%@5c. for quarters, and 6(961%e. for
halves, per pound.
FlSH-The demand is quite limited and
sales of some round lots of Mackerel made
during the week, on private terms, but con-
siderably below our quotations, which repre-
sent the retail bnsiness only We nnnta.

REMARKABLE PERFORMANCE OF A SExA-
GEEARIAN ON SKATES. = The Rochester IN.
~ Democrat records this remarkable per-
formance on skates
On Tuesday last James Jones of this city,
a gentleman who has passed his sixtieth
year, skated from this city to Holley, for the
purpose of paying a visit TO his son.in law,
Prof VIM. d. Allis, Principal Of the HolIey
Academy. Yesterday be returned 10
Rochester, on skates, as he went, having in
company his grandson, Chester Dewey
Allis, little fellow only twelve years of
age, and a young artist of this city. The
distance Is twenty-five miles, and the three
travellers skated it in two hours and nineteen
minutes. The average rate of speed was
little less than a mile in five minutes. For
the young man alone, such journey may
nOt have been anything very extraordinary,
but for the old man and the boy the feat was

rival.

four days of the week, and prices declined
&c. per bush, closing at 800, @Sl for red, and
81 O5@l Os for white. Corn very dull,
under large receipts, and prices declined to
3o@33c. for ear, and 33935c. for shelled, in
bulk, the latter rate for white. Oats ruled
firm, in the fore part of the week, and ad-
vanced to 2ec., but closed dull at 27@271ac.,
the supply being more liberal. Rye dull,
and prices declined to 5S@59c. Barley very
dull, and prices nominal, at 7O975c. for the
best samples offered. Barley Malt is dull at
h0LASSES-There has been increased
hrmness in the market during the week, un-
der the cOnth ID favorable advicss, from
New Orleans, and quite large business has
been done, the sales adding up 5000 brls.,
chiefly at zoe. for prime in oak, and $50
291<c. for fair to prime in cypress. At the

PROVISIONS - The market has been
quiet, during the whole week, and though
holders have been firm, and there were indi-
cations of an advance in the early portion of
the week, toward the close it became dull,
and in order to effect sales holders had to
make concessions. Mess Pork has been
bought very spariDgly, and the market closes
very dull at $l6 75@l7, these being the rates
asked. Bulk Pork opened firm, but closed
dull, at 81, 81 and 95sc., which were the
asking prices. There was a moderate de-
mand for Sides, but Shoulders were ne
elected. Bacon has been dealt in sparingly,
at ~, 9H and lOAc., and there were more
sellers than buyers at these rates, at the
close. Sugar. cured Hams lie,

Mondays Herald says of Monetary mat
tiers in New York:
The Money market is dull; the right sort
Of Paper goes very readily at per cent. per
aDpum, and on call the supply is superabun-
dsnt at 596 per cent. Second class Paper,
ard names not generally known are very
hard of sale, almost at any price. The fail
ure of another dry-goods firm, ON Saturday,
hurt the market somewhat. Paper con-
nected with the Southern trade is especially
avoided by buyers. Collections are almost
impossible in the Southern States, and the
passage of a stay law in Georgia has not
improved the credit of parties who are sup
POSED TO have money due to them in that
State. We are witnessing a revolution in
the Discount market as well as elsewhere.
In 1857 and 1858 every buyer of Paper
wanted names in the Southern trade; South
ern notes were considered almost as good as
cash, and no one was willing to buy names
in the Western trade except at very high
tate of interest. All this is changing
rapidly. The inquiry among note buyers
is for names in the Western and Northern
trade; very few buyers will now touch
Southern names, and then only at a very
high rate indeed AS more than half our
leading houses have been more or less in the
Southern trade, the effect of this discrm-
ination can readily be imagined. Whatever
issue may be reached in our political diff
culties, years must elapse before the South
ern trade will stand as well in this city as it
has done in times past
Foreign Exchange fell last week, closing
ct about l05@H for Bankers Sterling bills.
There is no demand for Bills; importers do
not seek TO be remittiDg as usual, and the
market is quite fiat. At this time last year
there was an active demand for Exchange at
lO9 Several leading Bankers find it diff
cult 10 cover with satisfactory Mercantile
Bills, and have withdrawn from the market
for the time. The recent fall in Exchange
will be sore disappointment to the En-
gisb.
The steamer, of the Gath of January, from
this side took adVices of such an advance in
Bills as will probably have led to the belief
that the Specie drain from Europe was ended;
last Wednesdays steamer from Boston took
the news of reaction in the market and of
saies of Bills at rates which leave profit on
specie importatiOns from London to New

advices led TO something like a panic on the
