The course of the grain markets since our last
review has been steadily downward, and general
reduction has taken place in current prices At
the same time an active business was transacted.
the speculative element of the trade taking hold
quite freely The principal cause Of the pre-
vaing weakness was the heavy deliveries
on Monday and the succeeding two days
of property on February contracts.
Shorts had made liberal provisions for
their trades on II declining market, and when
their contracts matured they were ready to
make their deliveries. Al had been anticipated
the parties having grain coming to them on
contracts did not want TO receive pay Tor and
carry the property, and their only alternative
was to force the grain on the market ana sell
out, or transfer the trades TO March. OF
course the heavy offerings weakened the
market and were the principal cause OF the
decline. The usual governing influences were
also of an unfavorable tenor. and calculated 10
assist in producing weak feeling. The New
York and Liverpool advices were indicative OF
unfavorabe markets and lower prices, conse-
quently there was no encouragement for ship
pers to do anything in the way OF
buying. The receipts were lighter. ow-
ing largely to the prevailing Indictment weather.
This fact had no influence, however, IA the
stocks III store are still quite large and there il.
of course, no probability of any reduction until
after the opening of navigation. Spring wheat,
declined about 215c, corn 114(d13sc oats &c,
and barley about case. Toward the close OF the
week an improved feeling was shown all
round, and slight reaction was shown IN
prices. Spectators had generally settled their
February trades and were ready for a new deal.
Regarding the future of the leading markets
spectators differ widely in tLeir opinions, and
both parties are backing their expressed state
ments by liberal trading. 1t is generally con-
ceded that wheat will not go much lower that
corn il too high and that oats will rule firm.
These are only spectators views, however, and
are not based on any positive statement of facts
and figures although it ii difficult to see how
any of the grains named can sell higher unless
the markets at the East improve materially.
The following we're the current quotations
at the opening and at the close of the week:

THE WORK OF CONGRESS.

What Has Been Done and What May be
Expected-Both Houses Badly Behind
hand.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The following is a
summary of tho present condition and pros
poets of the public business: Congress closes
its session three weeks from tomorrow. A COM
parison of the number of the bills introduced
some G, O0O-with the number passed at the first
session, and which will probably pass at this
session, will be found to be the most remark
able for any Congress in the history of the gov
eminent. Since the reassembling, Jan. 5, but
three important acts--the Civil Rights bill, the
Finace BILL and the Little Tariff act have passed
either house. This delay has not been the fault
of the regular or the special committees. OF the
appropriation bills two have finally passed.
one il in conference and nine re-
main to be acted upon. These must be
acted upon or an extra session will be necessary A
large number of bills must fail. Az to the Civil
Rights measure, each house has passed sepa-
rate bill The variance between them may pos
sibly lead to the defeat of both.
The Louisiana question il in great doubt
The special House committee will return this
week, but want of time may negative conclu-
sions. The proposed reconstruction of Arkan-
sas is already settled by the adverse report made
by the special committee to the House on Sat
urday, Notwithstanding the Presidents mes
sage.
Tie transportation question will certainly fail
except in the way of appropriations to con-
tinue surveys. The Hennepin Canal scheme
which il regarded most favorably lacked strength
in the House on Saturday. The Texas Pacific
and Northern Pacific bills, the Choctaw claim,
the cotton-tax refund, the patent sewing
chine extension, reported on adversely; the
Bayfield, and ST. Crox project, and all of the
additional bounty bills, will all fall through
Col. Tom SCOTS friends claim that they will be
able to put the Texas Pacific bill on an appro-
priation bill amendment. Two new States
are applying for admission-New Mexico and
Colorado-and probably the latter will succeed
Both of these bills have passed the House, and
now lie on the Senate calendar. A new Reve-
nue. bill, now in the course of preparation by
the Ways and Means Committee, il one of the
few bills that will not fail. The government
calls for nearly $40, 000, 600 of additional reve-
nue., and Congress will provide for it. This
will defeat all the meaures pending for the re-
peal of the stamp tax on checks, matches, etc.
The private calendar in the Senate has re-
ceived quite a liberal treatment but in the
House very few private bills have passed, and
hundreds must fail.

Immediately reasSembie, ana the presiding ON
Ger shall then announce the decision of the
