In the volume of business done the general trade
of the city for he week closing to-day presents lit
tie il auv improvement over that of the past few
weeks but in the prices at which some Of the lead
ing products are held there has been tirmness and
quite au advance TO what extent this advance
may be considered permanent or due 10 local specu-
latiye causes may perhaps be question: In the face
Of only steady or declining prices IN the markets OF
Great Britain and the comparatively large stocks n
those both here and at the principal ship
ping points at the West. There can be
no doubt of tue fact that the unfortunate
unpleasantness' at present existing between the
Baltimore and Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad
Companies Is exerting n baneful effect upon tlh
trade of this city, particularly in the line OF heavy
goods in that the lower freghts offered T. shippers

disadvantages thus offered to the business of this

sufficient misfortune to mere lants but It ap
pears that our own roads, VIII ch would
suppose ought to foster thu interests OF
tnis State and City, are almost equally
discriminating against us. 1t has been
said in THE TRIBUNE-and we believe the fact has
not been disputed-that the Central and HudsOn

Mass 70 points west at rates from 20 TO 3 per cent
cheaper than from this city, and IN the case of the
Erie. the Boston traffic mas actually to go through

in which the State not only has the right but is in
dutv bound to interfere, and BY the administering
of mild dose of Potter law" TO at least secure
from these monopohes of its own creation favor
able torls for its own citizens as are accorded to
non rsiI Irnt,. Among merchants there exists
a no!s ..Je,ul and cheerful feelag in regard
TO the 'utu.c # trade, based more, perhaps, upon
the Dr. b.LiICy that prices of most descriptions OF
merchandise have seen "hardpaD," and therefore
that the business done, if only moderate. will be
remunerative rather than upon the expectation of
any very largely increased volume of business. The
