Ine fToduco mhfGeIe, to'6aJs we're somewhat
irregular, aud with the sinels Exception Of wheat
prices were lower. The demand continues to be
chiefly speculative, and the only artcle Inquired
for At present, BY shippers, is corn. The apecula
tors are operating on the prospect that the next
European steamer will bnng untavorable news-
the response to the intelligence reaching there OF
the assassination Of President Lncoln-and that
gold will advance, md United States bonds de-
cline. But thie, OF course, can be only tempo
rsry depression, and the only chance Of operating
successfully on It Will be by making 4 sharp
turn.
