sf. LOUIS MARKET,

The week opens with almost lifeless narkets.
1ue railroads, with their high rates Of freight,
and the unfortunate condition Of the river, are
pressing the lifo out Of our produce markets,
says tho Times. Millers cannot buy, manufac-
very light, because the distant buyers hope for
better rates.
WHEAT-was in some demand by buyers on
Southern orders. but in entirely icent guam
tity for tho stock on hand. Mllcrs we're offering
2(d3c below the vicws Of holders, who seem con
Rdont that thcro can DO no further decline. Tho
market therefore ruled very dull, ranging from
81 IS for prime white down to 81 2sl1 for No. 3.
CORN-0nly white was in request, all other
grades dull and weak. Choice white 59I1c rang
ing down to Soc, 4sc, 47c, 43c and 4Oc, for mixed
yellow. &c.
OATS Almost neglected, with a weaker feel
ing all round, bulk being lf@1c lower, and
sacked easier. Choice white 3sIz@4lc; No.
2-231c.'

choice 62@7Oc.
HAY-Unoice $40, strictly DO $zs.
FLOUR-Slow and weak on all grades exec pit
good medium, which arc scarce, but the general
market was very quiet. Family $sIs rs; choice
$7@7 SO; XXX SO 5O@6 20; Xxx $s9S rs.
POTATOES-In little request for peachblows
and choice grades, with q rather stronger ruling
in prices all round. Peachblows 81 80 y Dbl
auke and white sprout in sks at 20 to 7sc mixed
and yellow and white pinckeyes 6Oc del.
BACON Shoulders 7Ia@7Ac, clear rib sides

genetings in large supply and dull at 81 SO and

ness done in cattle, caused by the inferior quait,
of the receipts, which forced shippers to hol'

The Lincoln county bituminous coal
took tho premium at the St. Louis Fair
The canal coal, sent from the same
county, would probably have taken the
premium also, had any one been On hand
at the proper time to attend TO it. We
hope that the coal mines of our neigh
boring county will be fully developed
and increase the present prosperity OF the
people an hundred fold. After all the
inkslings that have been made at the
railroad management of some of her
prominent men, we recognize among the
people Of Lincoln county some Of the
truest, best and most generous that ever
lived, and no spirit of rivalry can ever
extingulsh the high regard we have fol
them.-Clarksville Sentinel.
