COMMERCIAL.


SATURDAY EygNiNG, October $, lsol.
The wholesale trade of Dallas veritles one
great truth, that quick sales and small
profits leads TO fortune. There is not a city
in the whole Union to-day in which goods
are sold as low to country dea lers rs in lal-
las, and yet our merchants are all making
money, their sales are increasing ,
their credit is beyond cavil, and
they are gradually acquiring n competence,
This is all being accomplished by low prices
and fair dealing, and they
are reaping the reward which always
follow honesty, tegrity and worth.
Business in our city to-day has been, as is
usual on Saturday, brisk in the retail de-
partmcnts, and the sale rooms have been
crowded from early in the day until closing
hours. Our wholesale houses have not had
an idle hour. Orders by mail have been
heavier than usual and country dealers
have bought heavily in person.
We cali attention to our market quota
tons, which, as is usual every day, are re-
vised, and implicit confidence can he placed
in their correctness.
The Louisiana sugar crop Will be about
fifty per cent below an average the present
year. The sorghum crop Of more northern
states, owing to the drouth, will prove al
most n total failure. The high price of corn
will reduce the product of glucose sugar
and syrups The stock on hand at the loul
principal ports is 10000 tons less than n
This time last year, and the crop of Cuba il
estimated at 1900 TINS less than last year
From all these reports it is fair to infer tha
sugars and syrups must advance in price

In st. Louis the demand for SEATTLE ha'

that bottom prices have been reached, ant

The cotton crop of the nitcd States
promises better now than il did one month
ago, and while il will undoubtedly be short
of an average yield, tho acreage is h0
LARGER, and some Of the best informed per-
sons, and who have taken the most pains Ia
ascertain its true condition all over the
country, put the product at fully G,O0,0Oc
bales. This taken in connection with the
excellent crop abroad, will leave but small
margin, iiany, to make it ~ large as last
years crop.
those living in the south, have been disap-
pointed in prices paid for the staple. Toe
many are influenced by tho assertions of "a
short crop" on tho one hand, and sur
plus over all demands ON the other
by parties who really know nothing
about the true condition OF
affairs, and who get their information from
parties directly interested in hulling or
hearing the market, 1t is asserted, with
what truth we do not pretend to say, that
many ofthe commercial papers, upon which
cotton men rely are in the interest of specu-
lators and are paid for making reports to
influence certain results, BE thiSas it may,
ii seems that the shrcwdest and most far
seeing of our dealers have been nj fault
this season, While many are advising
planters to hold their crops for higher
prices, were we to give any advice, We would
say sell when you have prepared your crop
for market, ifyou receive fair rcmuneratNc
figures.
rho extreme southern cities are begin
ming ~ assume their proper positions rs
markets for cotton. Year by year
the receipts at these southern
cities are becoming greater, until now they
are from fifteen to twenty-five per cent in
their favor while few years ago the more
northern ports shipped about sixty
six per cent of all the cotton raised in the
country.
FUTURES.
During the week futures have declined
