of the port was fairly active, chiefly in the

troleum, naval stores, hay, and most other
leading articles Of domestic produce, save
Iscolton, in which there was no considerable
outward movement. OF hay, some 1000
bales have been shipped hence to British
ports within about a fortnight, mainly in
Itresponse 10 English orders. At the Pro-
Iduce Exchange, the dealings in breadstufis
have been less extensive, and, under the
encouraging crop reports and the fall in
geld, prices have been on the decline dur
ing the closing days Of the week. The
most active business has been in corn the
receipts and sales of wheat have been
large, the Eastern trade having been the
principal buyers. A moderate demand
has been experienced for hog products -
somewhat irregular prices -rpOrk leaving
off at lower figures Cotton has been in
light request, with bat slight changes in
quotations Most Of the weeks sales were
10 spinners. Wool and tobacco have al
tracted more attention at buoyant rates.

and depressed, with 468 vessels Of all
