GENERAL TRADE.

There was good business doing yesterday
In filling orders and obbIng but the feed and pro
ducs markets dull for want OF offerings. What
arrivals there were were for store, the small
amount of produce and feed sent here Tor sale max
lug necessary for dealers to send orders up the
river, so that much OF what Is arriving goes into
store. The st. Louis ReLstbtcd7i OF "wednesday,
reports: The great event Of the week was the
break OF prices on Friday. For some lime prices OF
wheat had been on an ascending scale Dul II Is gen
orally admitted that the was in 4 speculative

lhIs week the market Integrity mas been terribly de-
moralized. and the consequence has been collapse
| one day and some recovery the next or the same,
but without any stability accompanying the latter.
Corn has been subject to les violent fluctuations,

speculative affinity, has advanced or declined ana
thus the market for the two leading grains has been
feyeTish tiled, and consequently uncertain, yet
