The wholesale trade continues moder-
ately active, and in volume is in excess of
that Of last year. The hardware business
has been s,tive during the week and
groceries brisk. There IS a better and
more hopeful feeling in business circles
owing to the expectations Of the dam pro-
iect, which has already ben Gifted AUSTIN
commercially, to say nothing o. tie I'M
precedented activity in real estate.
The spot markets, although closing
steady and firm except New York, fiuc<
tuated somewhat, Baltimore, Philadelphia
aud Memphis closing firm &c higher,

latter dull. In consequence of this fuctu-
atng tendency in the spot markets all

New Orleans futures opened steady
