Friday Evening. April II, 1878.
GENERAL REMARKS-To-d day has been
bright and clear. The course of general bust
ness manifests no promise of an early i'm
provement.
During the week ending this evening the
condition of the Cotton market has presented
some encouraging features; though the sales
have not been large. amounting to only 1900
bales, against 81. $50 last week. The general tone
of the market, however. has improved and
prices have advanced 1sc on all grades over
quotations last Friday. To-day the assortment
in the offerings was poor and though the de-
mand was fair, the sales were confined to 1900
bales, the market closing steady and I'M
changed.
The receipts Of Flour during the past week
have been small, though quite equal to the de-
mand. Throughout the week the demand has
been very limited. and prices. as compared with
those of last week. have declined fully 25@371ac
D barrel. The demand for this article is con-
fined to the iobbing and retail trade. the mar
ket closing dull and weak.
While other articles in the line OF Provisions
have. during the past week, been weak. Pork
has held its own. and has generally commanded
full prices as compared with those of the West
ern markets. This was owing to the paucity OF
the offerings; but Notwithstanding the poor
supply the prices during the week have de-
clined 25@5oc y Dbl. the market closing dull and
