General Trade.

The general feeling in all consump-
tive articles is weak, though the de-
cline in values during the past few
days has been light. Flour is lOc to
zoe per Dbl cheaper, while wheat in
the West is &c to &c per bu higher.
The latter is 45c per bu and -four
81 IS per bbl above prices at this date
last year. Meats are droopy and sc to
ic lower on cut grades not sugar
cured. The number of hogs packed
in the West for the week ending last
Thursday were 100000, against $4,000
the week before, and $4,000 same
week last year. Prices of green hogs
are now 81 60 to 81 so per cwt higher
than a year ago, while cured meats are
&c to Sc per lb higher than this date
last season, and mess pork is 81 per
Dbl higher. The total hogs packed
since March LIST at leading Western
points sum up 4,345,O 600, and are
$50, 900 less than last year for the same
period. Drenching rains throughout
the Northwest during the past week
prevented hogs being driven to mar
ket, and this is assigned as the cause
of the decrease in the number slaugh-
tered. Lard has declined to per ID
during the week, but now rules BIC
per ID higher than a year ago. The
tone of feed and breadstuffs is droopy
without much change in prices during
the week. Dealers are, however, shy
of round lots and buy sparingly.
Butter is unchanged in price. Coffee
is ic to &c lower than d week ago and
Be below prices of year ago. In this
connection it may be interesting to
note that as compared with values at
this date last year hides are &c cheaper
now than then. Cranberries are 81
per Dbl cheaper, and cheese 10 cheaper.
Eggs and chickens are the same as a
year ago. Whiskyis 33c per gallon
dearer; rice, tic dearer; sugar, 1c to
Sc per ID higher; lemons, So per box
higher; cabbage, 81 so per 100 head
higher; beans, 81 so per Blu higher;
onions, SOC per Dbl up; dried fruit, 3Ic
to 4Ic per lb up; butter, 20 to &c
higher; potatoes, both sweet and Irish,
are 81 so per Dbl higher; apples, 81 30
to 80 higher; hay, 81 per ton higher,
except prairie, which is about the
same as a year ago; bran is Sc 30 per
ton higher; oats, lie per bu higher;
corn 26c per Blu do; cornmeal, 81 30
per Dbl do, and -four 81 so to 81 10
per Dbl do. The receipts in this
market during the past week, include
$25OO bbls -four, 300 bbls meal, 600
SKIS corn, 1900 SKIS oats, $50 SKIS bran,
1850 bales hay, $50 bbls potatoes, and
$50 bbls apples. The leading item Of
interest during the week has been a
light frost on the morning Of the
10th, extending 100 miles south. II

The money market has ruled steady
throughout the week, discounts re-
naming unchanged at 6 to 8 per cent,
and capital in ample supply for all
legitimate demands. The tone of the
money markets East is considerably
easier than heretofore. Arrivals Of
$1,1OO,OOO gold was reported at New
York, on Saturday, swelling the
total of the past weeks re-
ceipts from Europe to upwards
of $4,000, 900. The failures through
out the country during the past week,
as reported by telegraph, are consider
ably more numerous than previously
especially in the Middle States, where
80 went down during the week. In
