cinRati few days since. by dispusted
pofK operator, that it was q matter Of his
cory that not single moiherly SOW during
the entire season had met with a maternal
mishap. pE aW enare Fgs.F
The entire winter packing Of the season
foots up in round numbers over 3, 800, 900
head with largely increased weight over the
packing of SO and 20. The summer
packing in the West has also been much
heavier than usual, and tho hogs slaugh-
tered were of The best averages. Elrly
sellers met with fairly relnuneratiye re-
turns for their investments land our own
packers, we are pleased to say, are num-
bered with that class, but those who car
ried heavy stocks and the spectators for
rise (snd whose name is legion) have been
sadly disappointed, and in many cases the
results have been disa trous. Oar packers
are preparing to do heavy business when
the season opens, and their faclii,ies for
packing on commission or for farmers ac-
count, are unsurpassed in the country.
Messrs. Hart d Hensley, The pioneers in
the trade, packed late into January last,
and in fact kept their house open as long
ss they were able TO get 40 head Of hogs
per diem to bring to the block. This firm
have been making further improvements
in their extensive establishment, (the 'Se-
vance Pork HOUSE. and amongst the new
features is the arrangement of their
picking room for the cure of their
celebrated O. @. c. hams, breakfast bacon,
beef tongues and beef. The trade mark
Of this house has become household
word Throughout the entire country, and
the reputation of it is well earned, and de-
servedy maintained as standard OF
excellence and superiority. Oar city pre-
senis better facilities and greater induce
ments TO our Southern neighbors, az
depot from whence to draw their provision
Supplies than the more distant Western
points. Oar market is one nearer home,
consequently fre;ghts are less, and the
necessity for purchasing largely is obyiated,
as orders can be frequent ard small
The quality of the hog product is unsur-
passed, and prices are as favorable as any
other market in the country, and in addi-
ton to sill this the cure Of our meats is
more rapid and thorough than in ATTITUDES

Before closing our resume of the past
seasons business, We deem it not inappro-
pirate to enumerate some of the advantages
possessed by Nashville as a cotton market.
Being the most ncrthe1ly situated city of
Importance in the cotton belt, with a sys-
TEN of railroads, rsdiating In every direc-
ton and TO the very heart of the best cot
ton districts, by which stocks are readily
and rapidly accumulated, together with
orr river End the several competing lines
of railroad to the Northern and Eastern
markets, making at all times cheap rates
of freight. Numbers of manufacturers
agents are drawn here, to purchase their
supplies, who find here on our Factors
tables samples from all the best upland
districts, VIZ: Northern and Central Ala
bama, Mississippi and Georgia, together
with Middle and West Tenues ee produce,
making the most varied and best assorted
stock Of the upland varieties to be found
in any interior market, and buyers for
spinners account find that they can obtain
Just such qualities as they want, whereas
In New York, where cotton is generally
sold in large lots, forcing spinners to take
much that is not suitable for their wants.
With tbi5 advantage possessed by our fac
tors, they are generally enabled to get
within ha.f a cent CT New York quotations,
aud frequently full New York quota ions.
10 addition TO the large number of buyers
for spinrers' account, we have quite a
number ofliberai local buyers for specnla-
ton, most CT whom have such business
come tons in New York as enab es them
to psy close up to New York prices.
Oar factors, by long course of liberal
aud just dealing with both the buyer and
planter, have made enviable regulations in
this respect, planters findingth their crops
are carefully handled and full fair prices 3D.

Agricultural implements.

No branch of orr trade has increased
more rapidly than that of agricultural i'm
plemen;s- But few years ago aggicultu-
raj inn lemsn's we're a part and parcel Of
the hardware trade, but the demand for
such goods became so great that it was
found p. oftab,e to separate the Business,
resulting in the establishment of a number
OF houses devoted exclusively to the trade,
all of which are in flourishing condition.
The extent of the business for the past
gear has amounted to $500, 600, and it is
pretty generally conceded that in the two
gears past the trade has more than doubled
itself an indication that our farming
friends appreciate the value Of thu many
improvements that are constantly being

Augustus always the duliest month OF the
year, and thereh been no feature of inter-
est connected with the market from the
opening to the close except the arrival Of
several bales of the new crop-the first
Tennessee bale arriving on the 23d inst.
from the plantation of A. G.. Henderson,
Rutherford county, consigned to 81. s.
French, and sold by that gentleman to
McOrea 4 Co. for SOC . ID. The first bale
the present year was two days later than
,hGt Of last year. The arrival of the first
Tennessee bale was followed on the 25th
inst by two bales of the new crop from
Alabama, ore from Huntsville, and the
o;hSr from Limestone county. One of
these bales was consigned to Thos. Parkes
& Co. and the other to gilbert, Parkes d

occurred, and prices continued to appreci-
ate until the 18th, when strict grades

MUSIC end NEmsicaI Instrnm,ents.

Within a year or two past, music and
musical Instruments have become an i'm
poTtant feature in the trsds of Nashville,
and we find upon inquiry that large quan-
titles of sheet muac and smell musical
goods have changed hands in whols sale
way. About $50 pianos we're sold during
the year, being fully fifty per cent. a great
er number than were disposed Of bsflye
the war, the aggregate sum reaching the
sum of SEC, 900. The organ trade has in
creased fully 200 per cent and still on the
increase. Sheet music 3 and has been for
years very prominent feature, Mcclure
alone selling annually about s. 900 worth.
Small musical goods, embracing guitars,
violins, flutes, etc, is gu te an item,
amounting to near $40, 900 annually. The
low prices aud varied stocks offered by our
dealers precludes any excuse for our Peo-
pie pure aasing elsewhere.
The Paper Trade
We have elsewhere referred to the
amount Of money necessary to handle the
item of rags, which We may here state IS
purchased for the uss of the Rock City
Paper Mill 90 and the Manchester Paper
Mills, owned by Whiteman Brothers, Of
this city. The manufacture of paper is
no small feature In the trade of Nashville,
the sales CT the establishments above men
toned amounting to $3.50, Geo per anuum.
While the greater portion of this paper IS
used by the newspaper Offices of this city,

The Lumber Trade.

At rUueh guess We will put down the lum-
Der trade CT Nashville at 80, 600, 600 feet, with
over half million dollars derived from
sales. The river mills handle about one
third of this amount, and receive their sup
plies altogether from tbs upper Oumber-
land The trade is yet in its infancy, but
promises 10 be large in the future. Il
might be said that there IL an endless sup
ply of timber on the upper Cumberland,
which would be shipped 20 this city IN
double the quantities If the dem and would
testify it, but the mills on the river only
require certain number of logs to accom-
modste the extent Of their capacities for
manufacturing.
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1871-09-01

We find that the sales Of cotton during
the year at this point have been upwards
of 65, 600 bales, and taking the average
prices during the year, and spproUimating
to the weights, we make mp the business
of The year at something Ike So, 100, 600,
or in other words requiring that amount
to handle the crop in Nashville, not to say
anything about what speculations some of
our dealers may have had in the New York
market.

is conducted by sound and sagacious men,
who are fully alive to the wants Of the
trade. We venture to say that for ade-
quate stocks, low prices and hbsrsl terms,
Nashville can compete successfully with
any city in The Union. The volume Of
trade for the past season greatly exceeds
any former year, and We look confidently
for q still greater increase the sess1n to
come, as the merchants all over this and

The hat trade, as aseparate branch CT bug
mess, is beginning to assume immense pro
portions. Until within very short Pc
Rod, boots, shoes ard hats, in business
point of view, were one and the same, and
the majority of our boot and shoe jobbers
continue in the same old channel, and
seem to have no particular desire to
";hrow up their hats. We have, howev-
er, two wholesale houses devoted exclu-
sively to hats, who have accomplished
much in building up separate trade.
From the best information at hand, the
sales for the past year Inay be set down st
$3.50. 600.
