OFFICE NEW ORLEANS DEMOCRAT.
Wednesday Evening, March n, 1878.

GENERAL REM ARKSTc day has been sui
try and rainy. and outdoor business was. In
consequence. greatly Interrupted.
Owing to the continued unfavorable fntelli-
gence from other prominent points. our own
Cotton market was weak and prices were some
what irregular. The quality of the Cottons Of
fered for sale was poor. and for this reason
the sales reached only $3.50 bales.
The position of our market In Flour is not al
together satisfactory to Western shippers. and
then our receipts OF that article are growing
small by degrees and beautifully less" In
spite of this fact prices are barely maintained'
aud the movement continues dull and sluggish.
The total sales to-day amounted to 1875 bbs.
OF Corn Meal there is good supply. and the
market Is quiet and unch anged. Western is
quoted on all grades at 1902 Is on round lots.
There is large stock Of Corn on hand, with
q moderate inquiry and easy prices. The rainy
weather to-day has precluded much movement
in this article. and we have heard OF only one
sale of 1000 sacks choice white at 4sc per bushel.
OfProyisions there Is a small supply. There
was good inquiry for Mess Pork and sellers
holding firm at $40 25. There were only mode
rate sales. The market closed steady and
strong as quoted.
The supply of Bacon Is small. with light
demand and easier prices.
The prices of Dry Salt Meats are auotably
unchanged. although holders are holding at
somewhat sitter prices. owing to the small
supply.
For Sugar there was a fair inquiry at firm
prices. Receipts, 1876 hhds sales. 1872 hhds.
The Molasses holders were firm in their
| prices for choice grades. Receipts. 1913 bbls
| sales, 95 bbls.
COTTON-The general features of the Cottor
market are unchanged .Advices from Liver
| pool Havre and New York continue unfavora
! BE, Havre declining slowly and Liverpool and
| New York being lower. Under these depress
| ing influences our local market was weak. anc
| the business of the day showed some irregular
| below the closing gu stations OF the Cotton Elk
change. As to quality the offerings we're poor
and that fact restricted the movement to $50
| bales.

It Is stated by DR.. Linderman. the superin-
tendent Of the United States coinage, in re-
cent letter to the Secretary Of the Treasury,
that the new silver dollar has one very i'm
portant advantage over the trade-dollar. as we'll
as the old silver dollar. and that is that the
border Is so arranged as to fully protect the
devices from coming together when piled one
upon another. In this way only can undue
abrasion be prevented. The doctor further
says:
This mint PHILADELPHIA is coming silver
dollars at the rate of Sa5 900 per working day.
The dies are not working satisfactorily. Some
of them sink and others crack. have been,
since my arrival here examining the matter and
trying to remedy the defect. 1t appears to be
mostly caused by inferior steel. new diverse
hub has been prepared and new reverse hub
is in course of preparation and will be- finished
by Wednesday. The, first two hubs prepared
from them wei not as perfect as they should
be-, have decided not to send any dies for the
dollar to the Western minis until they can be
prepared with the new hubs. The experience
OF the mint for many years has bean that much
dtmculty attends the striking of all large-siZed
coins from new devices, and that occasionally
defective steel is encountered, no matter how
much care is taken in the selection. l expect
all these difficulties to be fully overcome by
about the first proximo, after which the capaci-
ty OF this mint will be brought UP to Is 900 silver
dollars per working day.
