l.
Business in the city at present very duh,
owning 10 the floods not permitting the
country people 10 have access to The city.
Goods are arriving freely and stocks are
rapidly increasing. In feed good business
is doing. Prices Of merchandise are gem
orally firm, our quotations show no import
ant changes. It will be remembered they
are Wholesale rates.
Cotton comes in very slowly. Hamilton
4 Co received only 100 bales during the
last week, against 2000 bales received on
the same week last year. Their. receipts
from September /, 1864 TO March 1, 1865,
were $3.50 bales, against lO,OO2 bales du-
ring the same period last year.
Of'course our banks share the depression
caused by the high. water. Our quotations
show no changes. There is a good demand
for exchange, which is firm at our quota
tions. Seven thirty bonds are in active
demand, and are selling freely at the First
National Bank. Gold is, of course, dull
and calculating there is not much doing
Hat there are few transactions.
The retail trade has been very dull, and
the country demand is daily decreasing.
We have very little change TO make in the
general markets.
Gold is selling at SHE premium. Ex
change on New York, Cincinnati, and Lou
isville, par 10 = premium.
But little change in uncurrent funds.
