for sugar and our merchants expect that il will
continue during the remainder OF the month";;
prices unchanged but firm. The refiners' output
Is very readily sold fast made and is more
actively in demand thar a week ago. The Gu
Dan markets are reported hrmer but, occasion
any, sales OF nOating cargoes are made at preVi-
GUS prices. Cuban letters state that, owing to
drought, the coming crop promises to be a little
larger than year ago. The crop of the Phillip

as also the Brazil crop. The Louisiana crop re-

the crop OF from $50, 900 hhds. a year ago TO

produce markets are active Receipts of poul-
try are large; prices settling. There has been a
Iufther advance In eggs, and well-lnformed
dealers predict still higher prices within the
next day or TWO at nearly all the leading points
or distribution; both east and west the tendency
mas been upward for some days, and our market
mas commenced to sympat hze. Fine cheese
continues active and prices firm. Butter is
moving freely, but increased receipts have
checked any further advance; the poorer grades
are neglected. Sweet potatoes, owing to in
creased arrivals, weak at Csc to soc per barrel

peaches and other fruits. Onions moro
sought after, but prices are no better. Hog pro-
ducts are moving slow with the exception OF
sugar-cured hams. The wool market presents no
new features. East sales are increasing, but
prices are no better, consequently no important
changes need be expected in western markets.
