SAVANNAH, Feb. Is, 1885,
GENERAL REMARKS. The general market dur
80 the mast week presented its usual appear
a,oa for this time of the year. Buyers have
1,ot h-en in the market in any great numbers.
- the volume of business was not to say, very
ia Orders, however, by mail and wire and
~, travellers were of more than fair proper
MS and the amount of goods moving is said
-, most iobbers to be fully up to the average at
tbis time There are, however, many com
,,Ioints of dullness in most branches of trade,
70, there are satisfactory evidences that
foirlv good business is in progress and the feel
tnc developed in the general trade is better.
I-5r groceries a good steady business was had,
40 shipping movement being quite
large This was also the case with
,,rsyisions Values were firm all around except
for bacon and lard, which declined slightly. In
dry goods the trading was fairly active and
fail movement is now going on in spring fabrics.
In hardware there is some improvement in the
trade and orders are increasing, while
steedv tone prevails. In all other de-
,,ortrnents the business is principally made
70 ~ small transactions, with very few price
changes. except the decline in grain. The
Iaonev market continues very easy. The
acnrjtv market is quiet, but there is a strong
Tndertone to the whole list and a notable
snorritv of all good bonds. The exchange
snarket was weak. Collections were moderate,
+bough fully up to expectations. The following
ras19e of the weeks business will show the
Tone sind latest closing quotations of the differ
ent markets today:
CIV Wa SToREs-The receipts of spirits tur-
,oontine exhibited some increase. The market,
However was quite strong throughout the week
and nrices show full advance of 1c There

offerings and light business doing. The

900fasks Rosin, the market for strained to
GOOD strained was irregular and unsettled, and
6ricps at the close were 216 cents lower. The
extreme sale goods were also easy and lower.
The demand was steady and about 10000
barrels changed hands during the week. Else
where will be found a weekly COM
narrative table of receipts and exports from
hpril to date, and for the same time last year,
showing the stock on hand and on shipboard
not cleared, together with the official closing
spot quotations.
CoTroN-The undertone to the market was
fairly firm and holders manifested a considerable
degree of confidence, but at the same time
there is some feeling of uncertainty among ex-
for the week at the ports, and the
advances last week in New York and
Liverpool is looked upon with
some distrust by local operators There was
no great inquiry and the volume of sales was
quite limited. Notwithstanding, however, the
slow business factors were not disposed to force
sales and the stock was very light, which helped
TO slls ain prices steadily The total sales for
the week were only 2400 bales The following
