General Trade.

The value ofleading commodities is
in the main weak and in favor Ofbuy-
ers, and trade is sluggish and draggy.
A material falling off has for some
time past prevailed in all classes Of
business, from one end Of the country
to the other, and until the AL trade
begins no increase Of activity need be
expected. We are enjoying a fair
traffic in corn. Meats move in mod
crate quantities, but all other com
modities are in light demand, and
dealers lay in sparingly, hoping for
lower prices. Planters continue to

Physique Of LouIsinninns.
New Orleans Times. Naval

New Orleans Times, May6
1t has been generally assumed that
met who pass their lives In a semi
tropical climate are invariably want
ing IN energy and endurance; but the
most casual examination of the re-
cords of the civil war will show the
fallacy of that assumption. Louisiana
had regiments in every confederate
army; they were noted for their cour-
age on the battlefield, their endur.
ance on the march, their good health
and good humOr in camp. The rcgi-
ments which were raised in this city
possessed in the highest degree every
sOldierlyquality. ebelievet the rising
generation Of the youth Of this city Is,
with regard to its physique, an i'm
provement on any Of its predecessors
The reasons for this improvement are
easy to find. Within the last ten
years exercise in the open air has at.
tanned its due prominence in u So
cial life. Numerous rowing clubs
have been formed, a yacht club has
made sailing on the lake both con-
v%enient and pleasant, the various mil
itary organizations have exerted a
favorable influence on personal bear
ing. One may now see every day on
our streets as fine specimens Of
physique as any city can show, and
there is every reason to expect unin-
terrupted improvement in this regard.
The foolish idea that exercise is i'm
possible IN this climate belongs to the
past; the growing love for manly
sports will henceforth produce a con.
slant Improvement in the physique Of
Louisiana.
