REAL ESTATE MATTERS.

Still no change for the better. There was
goodly number Of spectators assembled ut the Ex-
change, and the sales OF the day were somewhat
more spirited, yet the prices obtained cannot be
accepted as standard for the general value OF
property. Everybody now hugs the idea that busi-
ness and after the "a prox VIII become brilliant,
and that the disposal OF the Post estaten will form
the basis OF future operations, as far values by
dollars and cents Is concerned. 1t is good thing
that there is something to look ahead to, for re-
vval in real estate transactions; activity is sadly
needed, and we cannot see any good reason why
the sudden check sh ould have occurred unless the
reasons we advanced namely stringent money
market and the unsettled weather has caused the
same.

THURSDAY, March 27-6P.M
The merchandise markets were generally steady,
under fair demand; but there was some irregu-
larity, and less doing in some departments There
was almost no movement in -four and grain. stocks
are very light, and holders accordingly demanded
full prices; but there were few orders unexecuted
and these we're generally at limits below the cur
rent nominal quotations. These remarks apply
with equal force to hour and wheat. Corn was
quiet but very frm,. holders generally in
sisting upon higher prices. Oats were less active,
but frmer especially Tor ordinary new mixed.
Whiskey remained quiet. There was greater
buoyancy in the provision markets, particularly
bacon and lard, which were in demand and decid-
eddy higher the former being somewhat excited
and nominal. Cotton attracted more attention
and the market ruled firmer. Groceries continued
quiet, except for sugar, for which the demand was
fair at former prices. Spirits OF turpentine was
active and firmer while rosin rnled about steady.
Petroleum was inactive, and closed showing con-
siderable weakness.

Of their rights than their bosses are Of theirs.
An Illustration Of this idea occurred yesterday
on Canal street. On Monday ". q. Young
Co. started d line Of stages on
Canal street, to run from Sixteenth
to Kinzie streets. This thoroughfare has long
been occupied b. the A. P. Raegor line, the
mana gers Of which seem to think they should
have tho exclusive right to use the street, SO far
as regular. limo is concerned. So, when
Young's vehicles appeared, war OF e1termna-
tion Was attempted upon them. To That ex-
tent the managers Of the competing Lines quar-
relied is not known, but, from the feeling mani
tested by their drivers yesterday, they must
have Haxed warm. The police received word at
o'clock last evening that tho jehua Of the con
testants had resolved to meet at o'clock IN tho
vicinity Of Canal and Sixteenth atreets, and de-
eide the difficulty by wager Of battle" Ac~

the place above referred to q few minutes pre-
yious to the time set for the melee. large

ordered the mob to disperse, which it did with as
much order as funeral procession At late
