WHEELING, w. Va, Nov. 80, 1865.

present no special change worthy of no
tice. The demand for everything is on
a small'seale, and mainly confined to the
local .--lv. As d general thing, prices
ore irregular and unchanged.
Gold is still in the ascending scale and
the rates are about one per cent higher.
The demand for legitimate purposes has
been to some extent checked, but the
speculation which has remained dormant
fsr some time is being revived,
The Dry Goods market is rather dull,
and prices for all but very choice styles
running in favor of buyers The market
has exhibited rather more animation du-
ring the past week, the reduction in
rates having brought retailers in for sup
plies. We quote: Best Maddu Prints
