"WEDNESDAY, March II, 1875. !

EDNESDA1, MaTCH Ia 100 J
The return of winter after the few de-
lightful days offspring, has caused slight
check il business. The stoppage Of nav
igstion on account of the running ice,
has also been felt.
The grain market remains exceedingly
dull, at unchanged prices. But little is
being offered, and the demand is even less
than the offerings.
The business during the past week in
groceries and provisions was fairly active,
though nothing more nor less than was
anticipated. Bacon has advanced, as the
quotations given below will show.
The trade in dry goods has been quite
active with some firms in the city, Mes
srs. Delaplain & Co., especially, although
the sales have not been equal 80 far this
season, to those up to the same time last
year. No change in prices since that
mentioned last week is to be noted
In notions the sales have been moder-
erstely good, though not so brisk as they
might be. The business during the past
week. however, has been fair average
for March.
Iron and nails are active and firm,
without change in prices.
The drug trade is quite brisk.
Wool is getting duller, and its inhu-
enco is felt on sheep pelts, which are now
decidedly off
Furs remain the same.
Butter and eggs have gone down con-
siderably during the past week and the
demand is falling off. The only advance
in any article of produce is in potatoes,
which have gone up five cents, with the
demand exceeding the supply.
