COMM ERCIAL.
OFFICE NEW ORLEANS DEMOCRAT.
Thnrsday Evening Jan. 81 1878.

GENERAL REMARKS-To-day has been a
clear, cool day. Business generally was dull.
and Notwithstanding the large stock OF Cotton
the sales OF our great staple amounted to only
$500 bales. generally at yesterdays quotations.
Foreign advices concerning the condition OF
the trade were not promising. but those from
New York indicated an improvement. Though
prices are irregular and easier. our cotton
friends seem to have gotten over their fears OF
any great changes in values in the near future.
In flour there WAS moderate local trade,
though we heard OF demand for export The
market, however. shows somewhat steadier
feeling, and the stock Is estimated to have fallen
to Sc, 600 bbls.
Provisions continue dull. and mess pork can
be quoted easy and nominal at s12 y bbl on
spot goods. Supply on SALE $500 bbls. The job
bling demand is fair at sl2 25s12 so y Dbl.
We are glad to saylthati there is firm market
and good demand for our Louisiana product
sugar Receipts to-day 9f hhds. with sales Of
$50 hhds.
The receipts of molasses continue to be quite
large, amounting to day to 1859 bbls. with sales
of 22os bbls, tho demand being active and the
feeling strong.
OOTTON-The market still labors heavily
under adverse Influences but, although prices
| are irregular and easier. there Is no appear
| ance Of much disquietude, such as would indl-
cate the existence OF strong fears OF any further
| a moderate Inquiry. which was freely supplied
! Hayre reported holders pressing sales: but a!
New York spots were quiet and steady. and
| the market was dull throughout. but especially
during the early part of the day. and the sales
| amounted to only 54oo bales. made chiefly on
| the basis Of yesterday quotations

Last year England received from Germany
ses, 600, 900 silver. which was nearly two-thirds
OF its total import. This was more than two
and half times the import from Germany In
Is7s. The English export Of silver to India and
China amounted to as1 900 900 In round numbers.
and the exports to the same quarter from San
francisco Marseilles and other points
raised the aggregate above sloo.ooo,ooo. This
elearly proves that no further weight need be
given to the attitude Of Germany. as another
single year OF such exports to the East. from
whence silver never returns will remove its
entire surplus. This movement. also, proves
that the nations Of Christendom are losing
more silver than their total production.
