GENERAL TRADE.

GENERAL TRADE.
There was again no arrival at the river from
the north, end as supplies of up-river produce
were already exhausted from first hands the
previous day, it may be imagined what was
the case yesterday. A Sabbath stiffness,
drays at rest, mules In repose, stores empty,
and wood IN request for whiting, comprise
the principal features of the day, which had
some returns of that heated term that has
had so good an effect upon the Iugersol men.
st. Louis papers again refer to reports of Sc
nous damage to the wheat crop. The Re-
publican reports a loss of II per cent. in WIS
consin and q per cent. IN Iowa and Mime
sofa, with a corner IN Milwaukee. The
Springfield, Illinois, bureau of agriculture, on
the contrary, represents the state of the crop
as highly encouraging. Corn, says the Re-
publican, promises very well, and spring
wheat Is far in advance of the growth at the
corresponding time last year. The reports
are brought down to date, and the condition
of the crops is SO sufficiently advanced as to
warrant expectation of an unusual heavy
yield of all cereals In our market, provisions
were firm at previous quotations, which we
repeat Clearsides are in Indifferent stock to
supply the demand. The st. Louis Globe re-
ports heavy and light hogs 20@25c lower
during the week.
Corn in our market was in demand, but
there was none offering, except some rejected,
for which Acc was asked. Oats were in de-
, mand, with none IL the market; dealers were
ordering their supplies from Cairo, where
oats can be had at Sic and Soc for new.
Bran and hay were without transactions.
