be termed the wholesale prices" though there
have been no recent sales Of any magnitude-the
scarcity Of money restraining buyers to compare
lively small purchases. The supply Of merchan.
disc generally Is In exces, Of the demand, or the
ability to buy; but the influx continues, though
on a reduced scale. Business, at this season of
the year is usually very dull in Richmond-that
is to say, it has been 50 in former years-but now,
owing 10 peculiar circumstances, which every
body understands, the auction and commission
houses are actively engaged. Country buyen
are occasionally dropping in to make needed pur-
chases, and In the course of month or two the
demsnd from this class of customers will Increase
perceptiby. The trade in country produce con.
tnues limited. The fire swept away most of the
old and long established commission houses, and
owing TO the difficulty of obtaining suitabls
offices and storage rooms, very few of this class
have resumed business, though nearly ell OF
them are preparing to do so, and expect to be
ready to receive conslgnments Of wheat, tobacco.
and other produce in few weeks. Some have
already located themselves, and resu med their
vocation.
