IRONTON, o.
.r The Ironton Register, of Thnrsday, re-
norts that the market is sufficiently &C.
tive AZ to prevent the rapid accumula'
t;nn of metal. Prices are easy at 40 qua
AZ m for mill. AZ OOa49 90 for foundry
r. ,ssct;ous have occurred ut the min
nnI, quotations for mill, and the max.
;mnm for foundry. Holders seem to
think that rates will stiffen shortly.
Manufactured iron is quiet. A heavy
demand for hoop continues, and the
mills are turning it ont rapidly. Prices
of bar may be still given at 5, though
this quotation by no means rules.
There is an indication of more mod
erate, business in nails; still, the mill il
fully occupied with orders. Prices I'M
changed at rs for l0d. 81

The market for pig iron is quiet bnt
very firm, says the Bulletin. The better
brands of domestic are in small stock,
and prices at shipping points have
slightly advanced. Consumers have
their stocks generally worked close up,
and when they come in for increased
supplies, rates are likely to further ad-
vance. The upward tendency is some
what checked by the relative cheapness
of the foreign article, which continues
in fair stock, and is selling freely at
about previous rates. The consumption
of all kinds is quite moderate for the
season, owing to the dizziness OF the
market for manufactured products.

sales of No. in small lots from store
