There has been but little change in the general
business Of the city during the week, though tho
continuous rains have to some extent interfered
with trade. The receipts Of Wheat continue fair,
& good deal of which comes via the lower river
The low freighls have helped the business rela-
ton; between this city and the lower river coun-
ties and Alexandria is now supplying that section
Of country with provisions, dry goods groceries,
lumber &c. Although the cry of hard times" is
rcpcstcdty heard, there appears to be ample
money in circulation for all business purposes and
the banks are supplying all demands at the usual
rate of interest. Money was easy in New York
yesterday At 1a2 per cent call and closed offer

was active and buoyant and there was a general
and sharp alvance in prices The business on the
Baltimore Stock Exchange yesterday WAS more
active than for some days and prices were firmer.
