RICHMOND MARKETS. JANUARY IL, 1866, p. NJ.
In our city markets there is no change whatever
to note from last quotations. Business is very
dull and We do not see any immediate prospect OF
Improvement High rents and the scarcity of money
cause stagnatiOu in trade and unless there be
some reduction in rents some business men here
will have to discontinue their pursuits, aud then the
money which ought to be expended in this city, will
go elsewhere.
