been decidedly dull, in consequence OF
the cold weather, which prevailed and
the ciosiag of navigation. Many firms
have very large number of orders on
hand, but are as yet unable to fill them,
there being no means of transportation
except by rail, and many of the points
from which orders have been received
are not accessible by that means. Large
installments of goods in the grocery line
e., route for this point from below, having
been shipped by river, and the boats
having to 60 into ice quarters, the stock
in some branches Of trade is small, which
partly accounts for some Of the untitled
orders now on hand. 1t is thought, how
ever, that the coming week will mark
decided increase in business in all
branches. and that all untitled orders will
have been disposed of by our next report.
Flour is strong at last weeks quotations.
Provisions firm at unc hanged prices, with
new bacon now on the market. In the
grocery line, sugars have declined, but
remain firm with good demand. The
prices for other goods rule about the
same as last report. We quote:
