The foreign news the past week has
had an T1nfavorab1e effect ON the prices of
American products for export. 1t is antic-
ipated that the German war would create
a great demand for produce, and cause
larger expectations, upon which there was
some speculative feeling, Ebut the prospects
of peace have had depressing effect upon
the market
RThere has been some strength in the
Eastern Dry Goods market in view of the
proposed Tariff, but the postponement of
this measure until next December, has
thrown it back into its usual lethargy.
The New York papers notice the presence
in that city of numbers of Southern and
Western merchants for the purpose of
making their fall purchases .fa,44e
The wool market which has been quite
active for some time past in contemplation
of the prohibition in foreign importation,
has suddenly dropped down, leaving spec
ulators with heavy losses to sustain.
We insert this imports of Dry Goods and
general merchandise at New York the last
week, with the same time last year, which
shows large increase. 41j - a9Nl93f49.

The commercial reports from all our
Western and Eastern cities complain of
verMmdull season, so that our own mer-
chants will understand that they are not
alone in the enjoyment of aaquiet trade.
The Cincinnati Commercial says;spsT ftfA4
Trade in a general way is " distressing
Iy" sluggish. The Pearl Street merchants
are as nearly idle as possible, and the gro
GERS have still nothing more than a very

The stock Of Flour in Cincinnati is re-
ported at 44,0S3 barrels, fully third of
the amount being below superfine, and
much, of it unsound. The market for
Flour in all the commercial centers of the
West is very dull, with a strong desire on
the part of holders to dispose of stocks.
The European news and the early antici-
pated receipt of new Flour, with better
yield of Wheat than was expected, coz
spire to make the market very fiat. ~ 49,
Samples of Spring Wheat have been ex-
hfbiUed in Cincinnati, which are said to be
fully equal, if not superior, to the best
Minnesota Spring, which seems to estab-
lish the fact, not heretofore believed, that
of Spring Wheat.
The failure of the large dry goods house
of ]. NJ. Clark & Co. is reported in Cincin-
natl. 1t is said the embarrassment is oc-
casioned, partly at least, by speculatfons
in gold. I'll 5H Naa a ANtH lH@
Our mail reports from New Orleans to
the 10th inst. say the business in Western
produce last week was large for this season
of the year and the present impoverished
condition of the South. The demand, how
ever, was chiefly confined to corn, ofwhich
the levee was bare, very little in store, and
that in good request. aa4rl. 10 I.
We refer to our Geographic reports for
the latest quotations of the markets. s7
The Chamber of Commerce Review and
Price Current will give the spirit of the
market for the week, with accurate quota
lions of merchandise.
