COMMERCIAL.
The market remains practically ia the |
same condition rs was rcpI rteI N our last.
We have experienced some remarkably
cold weather during ia, last week, when
has had II tendency, in addition TO the
other drawbacks, 10 make the market
generally very dull. BY our river reports,
1t Will b. seen that for the first time in
nineteen years, the river is gorged with
ice ana shipping to all intents and pur-
poses, discontinued We note good
supply of Grain and Hay in the market.
The weather is modcrarng, and the pres
ent condition Of affairs cannot last more
than day or two longer. 1t being i'm
possible to ship until thet. is a
change in the condition of the river,
has caused the wharfboDts to refuse
to receive Frcghts for shipment at pres
ent. The Cairo market is now undergoing
a novel sensation, which is the normal con-
diton Of the ST. Louis, Cincinnati and
other markets above US in the winter
season. Country produce is in no de-
mand except for the local trade.
