GENERAL TRADE OF THE CTTY.-There
was no material change in the general
trade of the city last week, though, for the
season of the year a satisfact ry trade was
realized. The advance in gold does not
seem to have effected the trade much, ex-
cent to make prices a little hrmer. Our
dealers are looking for an increased FAN
trade. sf5f
