MONDAY EVENING, Jan. "a
There is nothing in the money market
throughout the country to challenge special
comment. In Eastern money centers there is
complaint Of too much money and too little de-
mand. AT this point and In the West generally
the money is still tied up In pork and grain ,
chiefly ia the former, and It may be considered
close. At the same time there is no pressing
demand for money at this season, and business
is quietly moving on without much outside OF
the traffic in the great staples. The last week
showed very fair railroad traffic at This central
point. In corn it was especially heavy, as the

GROCERIES,

Trade Is inclined TO quiet, and there are no
symptoms of an cary change. Merchants are
by this time accustomed to moderate orders and
light profits have cut expenses 10 suit the busi-
ness and, therefore, are by no means miserable.
COffees have for week or ten days past been
more active, and dealers are pretty well supplied
at the ruling rates, having sold out most of old
stock, purchased at higher figures before the
first of the year; the market East is little more
quiet with freer sellers than early last week
prices are about the same few days since,
and local figures are unchanged.
Sugars are steady; hard sugars firm, but the
soft grades white shaded &c from late
rates; New Orleans sugar in good supply at
former prices. There is lees demand for domes-
tic cried fruits, but continued activity in
prunes, which remain remarkably cheap. Coal
Oil firm at lie by carload in Cleveland, and 1870
to l4c here, in small lots. New Orleans molasses,
fine and sound, is growing stronger and must
advance; New Orleans quotations 18th are sec
for prime and SIC for choice grades. Demand
steady. Syrups dull
CORN,
which has been the leading object of interest in
trade circles, has held up to about 40 cents, but
was confessedly weak at that figure. The bad
weather and the iIlimitable mud in the country
viii do something TO check the moven emit for
q few days.
PROVISIONS
have been in a dubious condition and in spite
of nerve and bold front the market has set

shy. Ths following tables give a comprehensive

time: ,a
