General Trade.

Owing to an advance of sc per cwt. on
freights from St. Louis TO this point by
river. to take effect to-day. all classes Of
feed and produce are firm or slightly
higher. The shoal stage Of the river be-
low st. Louis and threats Of the freeze,
are the assigned causes of the increased
tariff, which is now 2Oe per ewt and 40c
Der barrel. The Ohio is deep, and not
likely TO be affected by cold weather, hence
that channel of supply ia not apt TO close
against us. A number Of our feed deal
ers hold large stocks, and would be in
clover should the rivers above become ice
blocked. Aside from apples and potatoes
among the ~flatboats, there is az present a
light supply of feed in first hands. Sec
0nd dealers, however, do not complain of
short stocks.
The river from ST. Louis south was
closed to navigation by last nights freeze.
40 saws private advices to merchants re-
.ceived this forenoon.
Shippers along the Ohio complain Of
low returns for their produce, and the
steamer Baum arriving from the Ohio last
midnight brought but small additions to
the nfesent stock. The only items on
hoard worthy of remark we're l47 bales Of
Ihav and 100 barrels of potatoes. No corn,
oais or meal. The latter was offering to
arrive this forenoon a 81 50 and 81 30 per
barrel, but the news Of the freeze-up will
likely tstifen holders views. About 7OC

40 cents per bushel.

Our bankers, like cotton dealers, are in
the midst of their most active season. Ex-
change is especially brisk, the heavy trade.
in cotton causing buyers thereof to offer it
in heavy sums. Ifthe demand for checks
on the East ran even, or equal in value
to the offerings, our local banks would do
a thrifty and exceedingly profitable BUSH
ness. Limited capital, however, renders
it necessary for our banks to keep a sup
ply of needful currency, by drawing on
New York, at an expense Of $3.50 per
$1,000 expressage for conveying it here.
This expense eats largely into the trade in
domestic exchange. Bankers at present
are buying Eastern exchange chiefly from
cotton brokers at q discount, or 1915 per
$1,000 for bills not carrying grace on New
York and other points also at 4 discount
or So $1,000 for sight or grace-carrying
bills on Boston and elsewhere. Checks
on New York can be purchased from
bankers at par. On New Orleans bills are
bought by the banks at $3.50 per. $1,000
discount, while selling rates are par. Re
cent liberal dealings in sugar and molas-
Eases caused a fair demand for New Or
leans checks, and the market is firm al
quotations. Local bonds and securities
are in light movement. County scrip is
in request at IS, selling at so. Memphis
compromise bonds weak at SO.
Gold opened in New York this forenoon
at 1908, showing no change from Satur
DAVIS closing rates.

Mysterious silver.

Cincinnati Enquirer,l
A few few days ago the express
company brought to this city a large
quantity of silver coin, supposed to be
about $4,000. 1t was consigned to
the Fourth National Bank, corner Of
Third and Walnut streets, There
would have been nothing strange
about this INCIDENT if it had not been
known that the coin was Of an extraor-
binary kind, and was enveloped in a
mysterious history. 1t was Of the
half-dollar denomination, and every
piece bore the date of the American
mint, showing that it was coined prior
to 1884. The strangest feature Of all
eemains, hOReYer, to be recited. Not
one of the coin has ever been In clrcu-
lation, and are as bright and rough as
when they dropped from the mint
nearly half a century ago, Where has
this money been all these many years.
1t is we'll kneEn that the 500 600 re-
ceiyed in Cincinnati is only part of
the whole amount Of $4,000 OF this
coin which has been shipped from
Pittsburg to various points of the
country. One theory is that it is a
thief's "plant" just discovered, and
dug up by some lucky fellow. An
other theory puts the matter in a
speculatory light. 1t is known that
shortly after the date of this moneys
coinage under General Japkson's ad.
ministration, silver was debased
Might it not be, then, that some one
invested largely in the debased coin
and boarded it away on speculation
Whatever the history of the strang,
money may be, it is a curious one. Il
becomes almost Of national importanc,
TO know that S76, 900 of this ancien.
silver is being poured into the curren.
