TRADE.

The weather is very warm and dry.
Planters are beginning to complain OF
drouth, and the market gardens are suf-
fering severely for want Of rain. Trade
is very quiet, As is usual in mid-week,
and meats, though 6rmer, are not higher
than On yesterday.
Phillips Cincinnati Provision Circular
of the 18th says:
Since mine of the 18th, a marked
change has taken place in the tone and
feeling of the provision market. On
Saturday it began to show some ANNA
ton, and prices were very hrm At my last
quotations, with an upward tendency; on
Monday this feeling grew stronger and
advances were established, and to-day
Rtill further advances we're realized. The
demand is chiefly from the East, the
South taking only moderately. Smokers
have been buying freely Of bulk meats,
and not a little speculation has been done
in them as well as other articles, while
the eonsumptive orders have been fair,
The continued ~tenacity Of holders has
done much toward advancing prices, as
thew persistsntly refuse to make conces-
sions on quiet market, and Immediately
demand advances when orders make
their appearance, thus maintaining the
market, and may be able 10 DO 50 for
some time to come.
