GENERAL REMARKS.
Building material is not so brisk as In
the previous few weeks, on account of the
low water making shipping difficult.
In Groceries there is no change. Bust.
ness continues very good, with rather
2ight collections from the country. Prices
are generally arm, for Cofees particularly.
Dry Goods continue good, with little
decline IN domestic collections.
Queensware is quoted steady, and trade
fair.
Tho Hardware sales for September are
reported the largest ever made in this city,
Rnd when it is considered that the prices
on those goods are much below those of
the past few years, the increased volume
OF goods will be appreciated.
Boots and Shoes, Clothing, Hats aud
Caps. Notions and Liquors are all report
ed to be unusually brisk, and large orders
are coming from parts where Evansville
pected trade from.
Grain, Produce and Provisions are about
stationary as to prices, and the amount
doing appears to be but little changed.
