NASHVILLE MARKETS.
UNION AND AMERICAN OFFICE,

NASHVILLE, May 70.
Low middling cotton touched 165e since
our last weekly review; but within the past
few days there was marked decline. The
market is now exceedingly dull, and we
might say nominal at the quotations given
below.
The tobacco market during the week was
characterized by a steady firmness with adj
vances. Shipments from the upper Cum
berland have fallen off appreciably.
There was no fuctuation in provisions,
except a slight advance in bacon.
Flour IL growing weak at the quotations
below, and there is prospect of decline.
Corn has reachedi its maximum and is on
the decline.
Oats are in light supply.
Groceries were almost stationary during
the week, and fair trade was observable.
German millet seed has had its day, and
is on the decline.
The receipts Of live stock for the week
were 42S cattle, III hogs and $50 sheep.
The supply of sheep is very full, and they
command the prices below, according to
quality. Fault is sometimes found with
commercial reports when the error is really
in the classification of the stock. Quota

The city demand for lumber is light, but
the inquiry from the country is large and
constant enough to keep the sawyers cheer
full. Our mills are ready to supply
any amount of building material at the
prices We give.
The drug market closed very active.
Opiates have been stationary throughout
the week.
In general the Nashville wholesale mar
kets are now beginning to feel the dizziness
which appertains TO the summer season.
All the Northwestern markets are reported
unprecedentedly dull.
COTTON.

day, the cotton men having a grand ex-
