General Trade.

Meats are unsettled and lower,
while dealers are in doubt as to the
future, merely buying stocks for i'm
mediate requirements, under tho be-
lief that prices viii continue to i%uclino
downward. Sugar is lower, with a
weak feeling Coffee is dull, but
prices have not declined. GAS are
lower and slow to sell, owing to
liberal offerings and receipts, All
other articles Of a consumptive
character are steady or firm. The re-
cent effort on the part Of cotton iron
tie dealers and manufacturers in the
East to establish a regular figure for
stock in all the markets, making it
50 % per bundle, but allowing a com
mission to the seller, isnot likely to be
maintained, as the probable shortness
of the crop wilteause many dealers "a
tell, fearing to have too large a supply
left over when the cotton season
closes. Then, too, there has been but
little confidence felt in the value o.
ron holding up to its present figures

MEMPHIS. Tenn, Oct0Oor b, l55O'l
The ruling rate for mercantile dis
counts is 8 per cent at all Of Che banks,
though an occasional transaction is
heard of at a little less. The demand
for money is not heavy, merchants in
a majority Of cases having good bal
suces on deposit, and the 6nancial
situation is termed easy. A scarcity
of paper currency under twenty dol
lars, is a source Of considerable re-
mark in banking circles, and our
banks have already offered 80 cents
per thousand premium in the east, to
be supplied, without getting their
orders filled, and gold coin came in
lieu of paper. 1t is expected that
gold and silver will be the principal
circulating medium in the south be-
fore the midwinter holidays, Silver
dollars can be obtained free of freight
charges from the mint at New Orleans,
but the cost of carrying gold and other
coin from point 70 point is consider
able. From New York to this city
it is So to $3.50 per thousand.
Exchange has offered in liberal
volume during the past week, and
banks are buying frequently as much
as $50, 900 or more per day. Eastern
drafts are also in large mercantile de-
mand. Rates are steady, cotton bills
on the east being taken by the banks
at $3.50 to $3.50 per thousand, with
and without grace, while New York
checks sell at par, New Orleans
rates are unchanged at par selling,
and lc off buying.
