future of rade. A fair jobbing demand for
goods is reported by dealers and prices are sub
jeced 10 no violent fuc tuations. In dry goods,
merchants are confident that prices have
reached hard pan, and are satisfied TO carry
large stocks of domes ic cotton goods, as all the
circumstances surrounding the market give
assurances that prices will sd vance. In groce-
ries, there is good demand, and sugars have
advanced. Other articles are steady.
In the produce market dealers report eggs,
butter, and poultry dull and sluggish, prices
weak and the outlook discouraging. Ship
ments to Eastern ma -kets for some time past
have been unpToft table. and dealers purchase
with more than ordinary caution. The New
York Commercial Bulletin Of Monday refers
to the market as follows:
