Aondsy Evening, Sept. 10, 1873. I

some departments the movement, has been
heavy. In grain, -four, drugs, grocer 70,
hsi DWARF, &c, the activity of the maj o,
has been very gratifying. Some anxiety
!" manifest among flour merchants in re-
gard to reports Of yellow fever st New
orleans and other southern points ,.t ~
yet the marke. has exhibited no sign. Of
any change for the worse in consequence
Of it.
Hay is very dull, nothing but strictly
choice is wanted, and ST. 90 ia quoted an
outside figure.
Oats continue active, with demand in
excess OF the supply. Good mixed in
sacks are firm at CSC. In corn dealers
make no difference in price between white
and mixed, both are quoted 42@4Sc
in bulk, and 52Cg5Sc in sacks. Very liz.
tie mixed corn arrives, consequently our
report Of ssles are very small.
The Ohio river at this point i. fee,
above low water msrk, and still receding
slowly, with plenty Of water TO southern
points, and unchanged -o.es. Low ws' ar
between st. Louis and Cairo is max ing
navigation on that part of the rive, un.
certain, if cot dangerous.
SWr Correspondents should bear in mind
shat these quotations are for round lots
rom first hands. For broken and small
lots, and in filling orders, an advance
il charged over these prices .los
