Our merchants report their order
trade exceedingly active, and a heavy
volume of supplies and merchandise
is forwarded to the interior by every
train, and to the river valleys by every
departing steamer. The imports
are also large but totally inadequate to
the demand. Railways and steamers
all arrive full to their capacity, yet
freights do not come fast enough to
satisfy dealers. In the general pro-
duce line the market has been almost
bare of round lots for the past
Two days, but free arrivals are
expected by steamers as loon as
the wator in the lower Ohio
deepens onough'to permit the packets
to resume active operations. The cold
weather, which set in last night, is
rather against much increase Of water
in navigable rivers, and we may have
to wait until the next rain before
there will be much of a swell. The
condition Of the local market here is
to a great extent unchanged. Flour
is strong, but not higher, with a good
demand for jobbing trade; meal is
weak and lower; corn exhibits nc
strength, and only a home OF
local request. Hay is rather
firm with a fair trade. Apples
meet fair sale at steady prices, Onion;
are scarce. Potatoes are a drag and
slow to sell. Meats are unsettled
