FRIDAY August 1876 p NJ.
The trade movement has continued errac all through
the week. and very little change for the better has taken
place. in the volume of business which continues
small in nearly all the chief commodities which go
make up the merchandise markets. in all the great
commercial centres The dsnclination of buyers go
beyond their immediate wants in making their pur-
chases has been conspicuous characteristic of the fall
this year. and it has been less conspicuous dur
ing the past week than previously Somehow tho idea
to have got abroad that, mat
ter how low prices have fallen, there is
every probability that there will DO still further shrink
age and that the longer buyers hold Off the better bar
gains they will be able make. On the other hand
however extraordinary inducements have been held
to buyers to them to buy early and after
little, when buying becomes general, these in
ducements
this may be and whichever be right the fact that
business everywhere dull remains The excitement the
breadsus market occasioned by the unusually heavy mid
rain storms has died out and sharp reaction has
carried prices back considerably though 1t is all likely
that breadstuns will fall anything like the low prices
lately The damage the 1t Is pretty
