OFFIek OF The w nhhLh0o As~
"WEDNESDAY, May l6. !
There has been very little change in
the marke. since our last report, with the
execution that the demand has decreased
greatly. This is accounted for by the
fact that at the commencement OF the
Eastern complications the outlook caused
most commodities to advance to alarm
lngly high figures, and the prospects
were fav orable for still further advances.
As q consequence buyers laid IN large
supplies before prices had reached the
maximum, and yet have considerable on
hand. During the present week, in the
vegetable line, new potatoes, tomatoes
and peas are noticeable among the new
products, and are in fair demand. We
