TRADE.

There was a moderate degree Of ANNA
ton upon our streets to-day, and business
was active for the season. In this respect
we do not see that our merchants have
any cause for complaint. Late arrivals
/ from St. louis, Louisville and Cincinnati
report everything stagnant at those
points. and say that the activity displayed
here is in strange contrast to the dizziness
| prevailing all along the Ohio. We have
but little change to note in prices. As a
general thing. the tendency is to greater
frmness in the meat market, while pro-
duce Of all kinds comes in slowly.
