Monday EYening. Dec. a. 1877.

Monday Evening Dec. "a. 1877.
GENERAL REMARKS-Ow to the holt
days. the markets in the wholesale line. were
dull-unusuallysso.
The receipts Of sugar yesterday footed up
1913 hhds: sales. 1916 hhds. There is good de-
mand for the best qualities Of sugars. and
prices in that line are firm.
For pork. there was only moderate demand
at unchanged prices.
In cotton. the demand was principally for the
better qualities, and sales amounted to $500
bales Prices were about the same as yesterday.
In the retail line the poverty of our people is
strikingly exhibited by the comparatively small
amount of sales they making.
COTTON-There Is no apparent change In
the general position of the market.
Receipts continue heavy. and although - no
advices were received from either the New
York or Liverpool markets. the feeling
was weak. but not sufficiently SO to Justify re-
duction in prices. The demand is principally
for cottons of the better description, which.
when they can be obtained, bring full rates.
The sales to day were $500 bales.
