It seems evident that such a state of things cannot last,

the result. This week the cotton trade has assumed a firmer appear¬ wheat, which was very dear during the latter part of 1867 and in the
early part of 1868, that the cultivation of barley was to a certain de¬

As soon as the seed was placed in the ground, there
prices has been upward. The trade demand is represented to have

The only marvel is that so good a crop has
the spinners to work upon short time for about six weeks. From

The produce is rather steely, in consequence of the protracted hot

but the margin between the price of cotton and of yarn or cloth is tco weather ; but the dry period for harvesting enabled the farmer to have
the crop in excellent condition, and consequently the produce possesses
great to admit of transactions in the latter proving remunerative.
But although there is a tendency tor goods to improve in value, it is by that peculiar paleness so much desired by the malster. High quota¬
tions seem to have brought Ihe crop rapidly forward, for our markets
means clear that an advance sufficient to make production remuner¬
ative is likely to take place.
The advices received from the East this have not been so very scantily supplied ; but it is believed that by far

Friday Night, Jan. 15.

Trade is

progressing at-a fair average for the season; in
fact, there has been, since Wednesday, some revival of specu¬

coining to market are of light weight, tending to
theory that with fewer hogs packed there will be
no increase in the
average weight.
But the obstinacy with
which English
buyers hold off, and the high rates of discount
in
procuring money to carry the product, are serious obstacles
to a further rise.
Beef has been
fairly active and cheese

barely steady on the poorer qualities.
We take the
statement in regard to pork
following
packing
at
Chicago from II. Mil ward’s Circular of the 7th :
The receipts of
hogs for the week sum up as follows, viz:

supply this year, even if it all goes to market freely, is only
very litt’o in excess of last year.
With, then, a supply in no event
excessive. and with the present short stocks and the disposition to hold
back the 3taple developed not only in this ountry but in India, there
can be no immediate prospect of a decline except there be a decided
falling off in the consumption. In the United States there certainly is
no
proepect of short time among manufacturers : the only limit to their
sales at present is their capacity to manufacture and their willingness
to se’l.
And no one here will now believe in short time in Europe
until it is seen in its results.
The time was when a dispatch from
Manchester of dull trade meant something, and had its influence on our
market; but it will require something more substantial now to affect
prices here.

still it must be observed, in favor of the

market,

large and exports are larger than at
this time last year, with prices much lower.
Wheat lias declined about two cents per bushel for Spring,
and 5c for Winter growths.
The large quantities of Califor¬
nia Wheat now at riving, and the liberal receipts of Flour and
Wheat at the Western markets, with some decline abroad,
and acceptances maturing, which are not easy to be renewed,
have caused holders t<> meet a very fair demand quite freely,
and the business of the week has been liberal.
1 he receipts
of Wheat at Chicago and Milwaukee to-day were, in round
numbers, 90,000 bushels, and those markets quite weak. At
to-day’s markets shippeis took 54,000 bushels No. 2 Spring

Supply, while there has
been a fair demand for export and local consumption ; but the
demand for the East is exceptionally light, and prices on the

Friday, P. M., January 15, 18€9.

The market for Cotton

goods has still been active and ad¬

Under the . stimulus of the rise in prices, and the
prospect of still higher rates, buyers both in the city and in
the interior have purchased freely. The stock of goods on
hand is said to be small, and the disposition is now shown to
purchase for present wants as soon as possible. Agents
have in some cases refused to dispose of goods at all, pre¬
ferring to hold them rather than name any price which could
possibly fall within the views of buyers. The future of the
vancing.

depends very much upon the cotton market, and
is therefore extremely uncertain, but the advance in the latter
has been so rapid, and according to the views of many of our
best informed cotton merchants, so unwarranted, that there
seems to be reasonable doubt as to the continuance of the
market
