GENERAL TRADE,

/ had 400 sacks OF corn, SEQ barrels of corn
/ meal and 1850 barrels of -four for this place.
| Potatoes were very quiet, our shippers doing
! little yesterday and grocers holding off for
better price. They were subjected to compe-
| tition, however, Tor a carload came in by
railroad Tuesday 5 papers OF Chicago quote
rev potatoes $2d2 p for Memphis stock
and 81 75d2 for Illinois; those OF Louisville
81 10dl . in bulk for home grown, and for
southern in barrels; those of st. Louis, small
at 15c; in poor condition, 81 20; rose, 81 25;

There was large supply of oats; northern
mixed in active demand, but poor dull and
weak; corumeal was hrIner, with light Je-
mand at 50 l5@2 % for city meal delivered !;
bran was very dull, with no eastern demand
and light inquiry from southern buyers; sales
on track a. 4S@49c; choice timothy hay
scarce and firm and in demand; lower grades
dead drag.
Corn in our market was without any i'm
portant movement, no arrivals and no amount
of stock in first hands, last sales were at 5Qc
oats were offering, but the demand was
slight and we heard of no round lots selling.
Bran is dropping and prices command no
confidence; so sacks sold at $l2 $50 more
Offering at the same rate. Hay remains avy
at SOFA Potatoes were again inactive,
small lot was taken at SOC, but the growers
generally will not accept such figures; one
Cdr load of russets in bulk arrived and sold
at Coo a barrel measure. A rumor that prices
we're holding up in Chicago rather better
than expected slightly revived confidence,
several shipper, however, will not touch
barrel that COS, over SOC the barrel measure.

tity. apples were In smaller receipt and
