GENERAL Trade.

GENERAL TRADE.
There was some Improvement apparent in
business on Front street yesterday, but moi
sufficient TO characterize it as brisk. Some
movements were reported in feedstuffs, In
which prices were a shade advanced. Flour
is higher and the market steady; cornmeal is
still looking up; butter is higher, but cheese
lower; hog products are steady at previous
quotations; apples are unchanged, but sup
plies of better grades, which have been
scarce, are looked for, which may tone down
present fancy prices. The price of coal oil
has been reduced to a low value, as will be
found in the quotations below.
