TRADE.


Business to-day was very fair, and
except some weakness IN meats we have
but little change to note IN prices.
From the packers returns OF Cincin-
matt, to the 9Th inst, We learn that the
number ofhogs packed In that city the
past season was $50 555-aversgs weight,
2l4i lbs, and the average yield OF lard,
leaf and trimming 25t lbs. The numbtr
packed last season was $50. s3I. The
average weight Of the hogs this year was
four pounds greater than last, which
@oeld make the seasons packing S63, 22S
aogs II last seasons average weight,
showing a difference In favor Of 1878 Of
about 5000 hogs.
The eupply Of green APPLES ia barely
equal to the demand, and choice are be-
coming scarce. We quote at 5 to IS per
Dbl, as TO quality.

price exist. Some lots Of choice West

The Provision market was less active
to-day, and some holders were disposed
to concede a little on prices, owing to the
weakness noted In upper markets. The
stock is light, however, snd we would
not be justified In lowering our quota
lions.
