TUESDAY Jan. If p. M.
The trade in mercantile circles continued slug
gsh, and in a number OF cases the markets were
the turn easier, though there was apparent
desire to force sales. AT the Cotton Exchange
there but little dealing in spot cotton and the
market was shade easier. At the Produce Ex-
change business continued light, and the markets
we're almost universally dull, though generally
firm. The movement in breadstufrs was very slow
neither nsur nor wheat selling in any considerable
quantities, either for consumption or ship
ment. The flour market was firm, though
the demand was light. Wheat was dull and nom
nal, but choice samples were nevertheless held
very firm at prices altogether above the views OF
buyers. Corn was heavy, and there were sales
for shipment from store at lower prices oats
were again buoyant and firm under good inquiry.
Whiskey was steady, with air inquiry. The
pork and lard markets were without noteworthy
change. Freights were quiet. but there was no
change in rates worth mentioning. Groceries
were quiet with the exception of coffee, which con-
tnued good demand, and the market very strong
remained entirely nominal spirits turpen.
tine ruled dull and unchanged, while rosn was in
moderately fair demand and firm. East India goods
quiet. and more less nominal Metals gen.

to default on the part Of a firm whose customer
was unable to get at the bonds in time for to-days
