Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1870-02-03

---
ditiOn, wagons are once more making
their advent into the city. We think
that so far as trade is concerned our
grocery men have little to complain
of, though they are not making
money, owing 70 the s~hrinkage in
values going on in many leading arti-
cles of consumption.
a Chicago circular of the 29th says:
"The liberal receipts Of hogs during
the past week has completely upset
the cries Of short crop advocates. The
receipts OF live and dressed hogs eX-
ceed those OF any week during the
whole season, amounting to 5l,693
live and 43,27 dressed. Total, 94,9O9.
The packing the present time sums
up 526, l6j head, against 565, 800 last
year, and 73S, I22in 1868. The market
for hogs has generally had a declining
tendency through the week, and
closes firmer at $ 6jaS6 - for light
and common; s. S0aS9 for fair to
prime bacon grades, and 50 2jaS9 IS
for fair to extra mess pork qualities.
Too much mess pork is being made.
The sPlendid quality Of the hogs is
favorable to its manufacture, and this
fact is being realized in 81 the other
markets in the Union where the pro
duct Is decliniGg-in all, save in our
own incOmpreh6nsible market, where
for a few days it bears a gambling
vas5e. For future delivery it sold
down to SO, for February, and S26 70
for March; but options advanced with
cash mess. There has been "a actlVe
demand for cut meals aud English
meats.
