GENERAL REMARKS.
The general com plant OF dullness In the
market Is little mOdi6vd this week by q
comparative Hveiiness in the Grocery and
Notion trades and other branches that
trade in holiday goods.
Dry Goods are moderately active. and
Drugs enjoyed a good trade for the past
week, but most other branches complain.
TOBACCO.
The receipts for the past week are i'm
proved, but Still the sa'es are limited.
Sales have been made during the rast
week at from 81 to S. % for lugs, aud s. TO
IS 50 for leaf The demand from stenamers
Is becoming quite active, and the general
demand continues IN advance OF the sup-
ply.
The receipts for the past week were I,64l
bales, and ths sales somewhat less, prices
ranging q shade lower, but not sufficiently

PORK.
The number OF hogs cut so far this sea-
son has verified our prediction OF last
week. and has now reached 500, OF which
Akin has cut 2.745. Foster 500. Elliott !, ,OOOs
Gavlsk $50, Rufner 80, and Peter Hess,
who packs just outside the city limits, has
cut about 500. Poster has sufficient hogs
engaged and On the road to keep him busy
the whole week, and the others report
nearly as brisk prospects.
There Is no disposition to pay higher
prices than those quoted heretofore, viz:
65z97e gross, the latter being the outside
figure, &ad buyers are rather reluctant to
give il except for very choice lots.
