GENERAL REMARKS.
Busine IS eontiaueI bI'sk n almost all
branches of trade, aud p-1ce3 are but lit
tie changed. The stock of provisions on
hand IL so light that we omit many of the
quotations witch have been merely nom
inal for several weeks, the stocks having
been exhausted.
The prospect for the pork trade for the
coming year, Is SGT forth in the circular OF
Messrs. MiIlward * Co., of Chicago, who
have reports from thirty-eight points In
Illinois, tnirty-eight In Indiana, and
twenty-eight In Iowa, end a number of
PLACES Ia MiTsouri, Kansas and Nebraska,
all OF which report the hog crop largely
Increased. Only three places in Illinois
report small crop, twenty-seven report
larger and Ave about the same, and the re-
ports from other districts are scarcely less
in propoa lion. Messrs. Millward & Co..
caution the frPde against paying
large prtcs IS for hos, citing lsst
years experience to packers as q
-, al I've
to the light Summer packing, the stock of
old meat VIII be entirely exhausted before
the new comes IN, yet the Increased de-
mand win be but temporary and prices
must decline, and they insist that stnoer.
Che circumstances JOa0 prices for hogs must be
Insisted on, CT the packers had bettsr close
theia, houses and aItOl0 their entire crop 10 be
nl0nopoEfsed 6y The most adj eg1suroUs.
From their Circular aud other sources, It
appears that the increased production of
pork In England and ireland - 6l3, zoo hogs,
or twenty per cent over that OF last year.
and the adylces from some parts OF the
South, show an increacci production
which IS expected to have an immence in-
fiuence on the business of the coming year,
az American bacon wit not probably be
taken abroad except at very low prices
But little is said as yet about the beef
crop.
