FRIDAY, Dec. 1876 p. M.
The movement In general trade continued slow.
The let-up In the extreme stringcncy OF the money
market exerted no perceptiDle influence in the
merchandise markets s-the near approximation OF
the holiday season with its accompanying du.
ness in all the ramincations Of wholesale bus-
ness tending to produce a curtailment in all
brands OF mercantile business. The export move
ment was still curtailed by the scarcity OF ton
mage and the consequent high rates OF
freight. Grain being wanted by the steam
ers, rates are propOrtiOnately lower than any
other class OF IRE ght-but they were stil too high
to admit OF shipme nts to any extent at the current
prices OF wheat. Corn was quiet at yesterdays
prices, but the market was less buoyant. Whiskey
was in good demand, and the market was buoyant
at material advance In prices. There was q little
more tone to the pork market, but transactions
continued to be very much circumscribed. Lard
was STEADY. groceries RENAMED very quiet, DuJ
without alteration as to values Cotton was in less
demand and declined about &c. per pound both
for spot ami for futures Petroleum remained dull
and entirely nominal, parties being wide apart.
Spirits OF turpentine were purchased much more
freely, but at . marked decline in prices. Rosin
was steady. but quiet East India goods sold only in
small lots Metals generally quiet, and unchanged
in price Wool rather better demand in anticipa
ton OF further advance in prices
AsHEaThc receipts during the past three days have
been more LIBERAL footing up "a packages; but the de-
nand has only moderate and principally from the
obbing trade Pots steady at - So and pearls re-

The stock market opened with q tendency to-

prices, excepting for Pacific Mail which was again
successfully hammered by the clique and depressed

up in order to make better market to sell upon

the Sixth District OF, Ohio.
Almost q Bloody Chasrn


The above convention met pursuant to
notice at Odeon and Whites halls respectiv-
~ on "Wednesday morning and proceeded to
business
The proceedings, especially OF the Liber
ala, were of 50 unique character, and 80
nttlc calculated to fill that terrible chasm
oItlsd bloody, that at the section known hs
the Sixth District IT Ohio, deeper vortex
now yawns, and a widcr gull enens, along
whose sides reverbcrates the din of a'tual
combat, an1 the portentous sounds OF i'm.
pending and fiercer strife.
Behold how these brothers love each
other. Delightful prospect. They ostensi-
bly, assembled for high ard patriotic pur-
poses, but resolved to have their own way
professcdy actnatsd by pure political mo-
tives, but determin ID to place their protege
in power. Who can now doubt the near
approach Of the era Of good feeling?
But to he more concise The Democrats
nominated the Hon FRANK II. HURp, by
aeclamation. The Liberals desired ex Hon
oEabae }. NJ. ASHLEY, and committee Of
conference was appointed to report the
name uf candidate who reported in favor
OF that gentleman Before reaching this
agreement, however, two of the committee
quarrelcd and fought, and az the Democrats
refused to entertain their proposition, Ma.
jor PIcE declared that "a man who would
vote for HvRD, after being treated as they
had been by the Democrats, must be id
fool" rhsepnvention soon after adjourned
sine de.
Thus history repeats itself tho mountain
bath again brought forth mouse"
