have. The market Is very Il I'm at our quo
tations
The Grocery and Provision market is
very quiet. The effects of the prevailing
epidemic are very marked here. Country
dealers seem to be afraid TO bring their
horses to the city, some for fear that their
animals will take sick on the road and
others that they may contract the diseassin
the city, as If the epizooty was confined to
particular localities. OK teams and "hand
expresses" are the only means dealers have
TO get goods TO and from the railroad depots,
and even these modes are notably INSULT
cient. Prices or most articles are without
change.
Butter and Eggs have advanced greatly
during the past week. Eggs are quoted at
Sc per dozen and Butter at 35c per pound,
the latter fer a strictly choice article.
The stock OF Oats is large and 80 few are
fed now that decline in price was neces-
sary consequence OF falling off in the de-
mand.
Corn quiet and firm at our quotations.
Hay Is in demand and prices are very
firm. Some spectators have tried during
the week to raise the price TO $500 per ton,
but 1t was resisted by our city dealers, and
the quotations remain unchanged.
In Wool trade is very dull. There was a
little fiutter of excitement in the market,
but il was not sufficient to cause any ad.
vance, dealers preferring to await further
action, we suppose, for the reason that a
burnt child breads the fire." as they have
not yet forgotten their experience Of last
winter and spring, when many OF them got
severely scorched by their contracts, selling
for 55c what they paid 65c and over for.
There Is a 4 advance of &c to DC in the East
ern marke Is, but the sales are small and for
inme liate use In the manufactures, except
lew lots sold on speculation, There are
no sales "to speak of" in this vicinity, the
holders holding off for better prices, and
buyers holding Off for a lowering OF prices
In relation to the Eastern advance the New
York Herald of the 2lst says: "Ihere can be
no doubt but that the present excited ten.
dency of the Wool market issimply the re-
suit OF the baSeles; statements OF a greedy
ring ofspeculators, but II seems TO be equal
ly certain that there is an ample stock OF
both foreign and domestic Wool still in the
country, which manufacturers can again
buy, before their necessities for making
spring goods press them at prices which
will be satisfactory"
