There is a fair trade in the general
market, and the demand for most arti-
cles is good. The panic does not seem
to have affected our trade mach. as yet,
ard we hope it will not.
The resumption OF steamboat traffic
will have good effect on our market,
as it will enable our merchants to reach
their customers in the river towns be-
tween this point and Parkersburg.
The market for wheat and flour is
fiat. Transactions in wheat especially,
are stopped, aud prices are weaker,
though there is no noticeable change in
quotations.
The prices Of provisions have declin-
ed from ] to lc per pound, with weak
market.
Cheese has advanced, with the pros
pect OF further advance. TIE short
hay crop on the Reserve has prevented
as an extensive manufacture OF cheese
as in other years.
Carbon oil is lower, and lard oil has
advanced.
Sugars have advanced and the mar
ket is somewhat excited We may
look for an unsettled market until the
present stringency in the money market
is over.
Potatoes are in great demand at 81 90
to 81 10 per busnel. Most of out deal
ers are purchasing abroad and Cannot
get all the supply they desire. Prices
Tor this esculent will advance material
ly before spring.
Eggs are higher and scarce. Retail
ers hold them at 2jG26c per dozen.
| At Wholesale they briug 22@23c. The
enquiry for eggs is good.
Wool is fiat and without change.
Very little offering and buyers not
anxious to add to their stock.
