The trade movement was exceedingly slow to-
day, being greatly retarded by the rain storm,
which interrupted the delivery OF merchandise,
interfered with the transmission Of kilograms,
&C. Business was Of course very light, both on
and or 'Change. Flour was quiet but steady.
Wheat was dull and prices favored the buyer,
though sellers OF full loads prime were compara-
lively firm in their views until they found there
were no buyers, when wheat was offered at lower
figures. Corn was also dull, and buyers in
sisted upon some little concession, which
was finally granted. Oats were dull,
heavy and lower. Whiskey was irmer under
temporary scarcity. Pork remained dull, and
prices were SO entirely nominal that the best
Judge could not probably guess within
81 per bbls OF the price. Lard was
quiet and closed shade easier. Groceries gen.
orally quiet with the exception of sugar which met with
a fair inquiry at steady prices. Petroleum dull and
