WEDNESDAY, Sept. 24-6P.M.
The trade movement was more than ever inter-
rupted to-day, the many ridiculous rumors from
wall street causing renewed apprehensions and
rendering commercial transactions well nigh i'm
possible. Rumors the most groundless eXerted
for time an influence as potent as actual disaster
could have done, and these new thick and FAST and
proved an effectual preventive OF nearly ali legiti-
mate trade enterprises. The export movement was
at stand owing to the utter futility of all effort
at negotiating foreign exchange. On 'Change
scarcely anything was done. and the doors might
almost as well been closed for all that resulted
from the congregatng of merchants Flour was
dull and nominal. Wheat was dull and decidedly
lower, but the concession did not induce purchases to
any extent owing to the mpOssibiiity OF selling
change. Corn was dull and lower Oats quiet.
Whlskey was easy. Provisions duh and nominal,
so tar as large lots concerned. Lard easier
Groceries were quiet and easy. Cotton quiet and
prices were decidedly lower, both spot utures
Petroleum dull and entirely nominal Naval stores
were neglected and easier.
