GENERAL TRADE.

There was no river arrival from the north
Yesterday, and the weather was too warm for
activity in the demand and little fell to the
reporters share. The st. Louis Republican,
of Tuesday, reported the arrival OF the first
car load of new oats; the quality was good,
and they sold at 2612c on change; also, that
wheat was lower for cash, and corn higher
for the same, but without activity except for
rejected, which sold freely for 33c; oats were
at rather better prices. The Cincinnati Ga
zette says: at is encouraging to go among
business men now, and hear them talk about
the future. The opinion is universal that the
worst has passed and the turn fairly made.
Croakers have disappeared, or rather they
have changed sides. This is in striking con-
trast with the talk while ago. Then it was
gloomy indeed. Well, when everybody talks
favorably, much is gained, because confidence
has everything to do with business. Now we
nave returning confidence based upon splen-
did crops; low prices; a hard-pan foundation;
plenty of money; coin about equal; no re-
foe our surplus products. Capitalists, toe,
ave showing their faith by their works.
Movements are being male here in the line
of manufactures that will employ much
capital and many men. Projects that
would not be looked at six months
ago are eagerly sought after now"
