TRADE.
Very little was done yesterday in any
of the branches Of trade. Orders from the
interior are limited 70 barely supply the
immediate wants Of dealers. In dry
goods, boots and shoes, etc, scarcely any
thing was done. In groceries there are no
changes to note In prices. Stocks are suf-
hcient to meet the demand for some time;
dealers report moderate shipments to the
country, and quote prices unchanged.
the only transaction Of importance we
have 20 note was the sale in New York Of
$50 bsgs of LOqugra coffee to One of Our
deales at l51Zc, gold basis. Provisions are
extremely dull, and fromlpres6ut indiea-
tions prices will 60 still lower. Mess
pork was sold on the levee yesterday at
$40, and from store 81 $40 90. Dry sailed
meats are not in request at over 9G9Zc
and we doubt If sales from store could be
made at those figures even. Transactions
are reported where sugar cured hams have
been disposed Of at ljc. Lard seems TO

sions and is also tending downward; sales
Of y kegs were reported yesterday at l2k
Gl3c. Bacon, though not quOtably low
or, Is held less firmly, and concessions
would be- made by dealers to effect sales.
The principal feature in grain on Change
to-day was corn, the prizes for which wss
sustained the day previous by an attempt
TO " corner " on the part of some of our
dealers. The "ring'' was broken, how
ever, by the first sale that was made, and
for a time il was apparent that The bot
tom had dropped out. The sale referred
to was 792 sacks of burlsps, yellow, and
go new gUunies, at CSC for the round lot.
Some 500 bushels of white ear corn was
offered at 67c, as was also 800 sacks Of vel
low shelled at &c, without finding pur-
chasers. There are three natbOats st the
levse loaded with the former, and receipts
Of the latter are increasing daily. Moth
ing was done in hay, the only offerings
being - bales choice timothy, for which
81 90 was bid and refused. Sales from
store we're in the neighbOrhOod Of 100
bales at prices ranging from E2IG25 for
Common TO choice. Oats are in moderate
supply, but the demand is limited. Deal
ers are firm at 6j965C from store and 6Ik
G63c from the levss. Bran is quoted az
S25@25 50 from store, according 10 guam
THY; for small orders the latter Is the rul-
ing price. COrnmsal is in better supply
and prices, in sympathy with corn, are
tending downward; a sale of 60 barrels
was rep7rtsd from the w~harfbost yester-
day a. S3d3 O5; dealers sell at s. 2OG3 25
