opens trade would increase, bu,
this week seems TO be an exception. IL
q few articles there has been goct
demand with fair receipts, but in mos
there is . remarkable dullness. Oo'
cause OF the dullness is the very bat
condition OF the roads throughout th'
s ate. The hard frost oi the winte
and the bad weather Of the past foul
weeks has left the country roads almos
impossible on account OF the mud, &c
that it is very difficult to draw loads te
the country stations for shipment The
weak condition OF the Grain market
has also bad a depressing Influence on
general trade.
The Flour market is extremely fat
and prices are without change. There
is comparatively nothing doing in this
department oil trade outside OF city
demand.
Prices in the Grain market are al
most nominal. Wheat is weak but
without change in quotations. The
general feeling among holders Of wheat
is hat it must soon be in better demand
and prices advance, aud we see no ress
on why their views are not correct
Corn was very dull during the entire
week and but few sales made.
The market for Smoked Meats Is
without change aud the market very
firm.
Coffee is without change. The
market is dull. Another advance is
reported at Baltimore.
The Wool market is very fiat, there
is but little of anything doing, the
New York Herald SAYS thst there WAS
quite an Improvement in the New York
market on Friday. A number OF man
ufscturers were 10 town and bid pretty
lively, but ss q general thing their Of
fers were from lc to &c below the views
OF holders, who, however, reused to
realize except at full prices. The trans
