Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1872-01-25
The following Is q comparative daily
statement OF b receipts, shipments and
stock on hand at this point:
TRADE.

There was no essential chsnge in the
market from previous days OF the week.
Prospects sre that navigation will agstn
be &lfnoult and freights high. Trade was
fair, both on orders and from the city.
PrOvisionE-There was a firm feeling
with holders In meats, n a disposition
to speculate and hold higher, owing to
the fact thst sdvicss were received this
morning that prices had advanced in up
per markets. No large amounts could be
purchased here at less than our inside
quotations. Receipts are very fair, but
the demand is very large, the country ia
king largely On account of the cheapness,
We have been of the opinion all along
that prices would advance. The southern
demand Is greater, while the foreign de-
msnd for cOmmtssary purposes is largely
in excess over last year. True, the crop Is
lsrger than last year, but, ON the other
hand, ths consumption Is greater. This
time last year meats we're within q frac-
ton of being double in price what
they are at this time. We quote:
Mess pork, $l4 50Gl5; in bacOn-clear-
sides, SG8Ac; shoulders at 7S47Ac and

Grain-Corn yesterday was sitter and
sold a. SIC for secondhand gunnies. The
market, however, was almost bare of
stock on the levee, and We giveit a. our
opinion that small lots would bring 6Oc
for new gunnies, but unexpectedly, large
shipments arrived last night and this
morning, some three thousand sacks,
which caused q break in prices. One con-
signor sold 40 sacks new gunnies at 56c. |
Ear corn, $50 sacks sold az soc; dealers
bought for second hand gunnies, at 56c
csc. Oats we're in light receipt aud &C.

and stitt at S27 Hay is in large supply
and Offering S24 to S27 from fair to prime;

P~rOduce-There was some animation
