Weekly Review of the General Markets
—A Fair Business Done — Ragging
Higher—Corn'Scarce —Coffee Quiet-
Dry Goods Quiet—Drugs Steady—Hides
Lower—Oats Steady—Cotton, Etc.
News Office, July 5.—Business in the general
market during the past week has been fair and at
times active. Saturday and Monday were the ex-
ceptions, owing to the closing of the exchanges for
the holidays. Values of nearly all staples have
been steady. Bacoa is firm aad the tendency up-
ward. Bagging has advanced at Now York, and is
met by a corresponding advance in this market.
Butter is dull, but unchaaged. Canned goods are
steady and without material change. Cornmeal is
scarce and firm. Corn is scarce and has advanced
during the weak. There are bo round lots
offering and no sales from track have
been reported for several days. Coffee has been
quiet and dull, but a tittle more movement has
been observable to-day, and prices are firm at
quotations. Dry goods have been quiet, with some
movement io jeans and fall goods; prices are firm
but unchanged. In drugs a good business has been
done during the week at steady prices. Eggs are
dull for patent boxes, but steady for bay and city
at quotations. Flour is firm at quotations, and the
tendency is to higher prices, in smpatby with
Wsstern markets. Fruits are in fair demand at
quotatioas. Lemons are active with a fair supply
on hand. Hardware is firm, with a good busi-
ness doing for the season. Molasses is dull
and inactive. Oats are in fair supply for
State, and scarce for Western, and bring full quo-
tations. Oranges are dull, and there is little
movement. Oils are quiet but steady. Poultry is
dull at quotations, and the supply large. Potatoes
are scarce, and have advanced during the week.
Rice is quiet and easy. Salt is firm at the recent
advance. Sugars are quiet but steady. Hides are
dull, and prices were reduced J£@lc. to-day. Wool
is firm, with a fair movement. Sales during the
week have been large.
The general outlook m the cotton market has
been brighter to-day than for some time past, all
points showing considerable activity, with higher
prices at. Liverpool for both spot and futures.
There was an active demand for cotton iu this mar-
ket, and sales to the extent of 1«S2 bales are re-
ported. The market closed Arm at unchanged
quotations. The Liverpool market for
spot opened active and flrmer and afterward
advanced and closed l-16d. higher. Deliveries
opened ilrm and partially l-16d. higher, and after-
ward advanced, closing weaker but l-16d- higher
all round than yesterday. Silver at London has
advanced steadily the past few days, closing last
evening at 52d. for fine bar, and advancing J4<L to-
day to 58J4d. This, of course, has strengthened
cotton on both sides. The weekly dispatch from
Providence, dated the 4th, reported print cloths
Arm, but buyers and setters apart. Quotations are
unchanged. Fall River to-day reported a fairly
active business in print cloths, with the market
very steady at quotations. The sales were large,
amounting to 190,000 pieces. Manchester reported
yarns and fabrics firmer and slightly dearer.
General S. B. Maxey will address the members of
the Cotton Exchange to-morrow (Wednesday) at 12
m. Th« public are invited.

Pry Goods—Though the demand has beem less
active, th- past week, the business completed has
proved very satisfactory in volume. To the pau-
city of supplies of niany lines is due the seem-
ingly les- attention, as numerous buyers, finding
stocks closely sold up, are oompelled to alace
their orders with manufacturers for delivery later.
For this reason all descriptions of ootto* and
woolen fabrics are held with exceeding firmness,
holders feeling that with consumption now
abreast, if not in advance, o£ production,
there is no necessity for urging goods into
distributors' hands Manufacturers, as a rule, are
reluctant when considering future orders to name a
price, requiring in nearly all cases "value" at
time of shipment, as the raw material, wool in
particular, rests upon a pretty stable basis, prom-
ising an advance rather than a decline. The fol-
lowing changes in prices of canton flannels are re-

Operations in the interior are progressing without
interruption, and prices, continue to gradually ad-
vance. There is, however, a limit that buyers in
the country should very soon consider. There is
no scarcity of the raw material, but on the other
hand competent statisticians have proved beyond
much doubt that the visible supply to-day is suf-
ficient to carry our manufacturers for at least one
year, even should production rise to the point at-
tained during the season of 1S79-8G. For this reason
buyers should be careful to avoid forcing prices, by
active competition, to an extreme, as a lull in the
demand later would surely result in a break that
probably could not be checked until the other ex-
treme was reached. The sales include 115.000 lbs.

New York, July l—Opinions were conflicting

that they were not very serious, and, Indeed, one

Brenham Sentinel: Caldwell has had new
life infused into it by the railroad. The broad
avenue leading out to the court-house is well
dotted with neat, cosy-looking dwelling-
houses. The lumber business there is brisk
and improving. The three yards carried on
by Misses Compton, McAddison and T. M.
Hunt supply the demand. That point is the
best corn market we know. A merchant of
Caldwell informed us that he is prepared to
sell any amount at 30 cents per bushel-of last
year's. If not an ear is made in Burleson
county this year there is enough of the orop of
18S0 to supply it. Caldwell has shipped 6200
bales of cotton since September 4. The crops
in the Bohemian settlement above Caldwell
are the best we saw in that county.

about 3000. The corn trade has greatly dimin-
ished since the drouth commenced, most fann-
ers holding it back for another year in case
the dry weather continues. Wheat ranges in
price from 60 to SI cents; Nicaraugua wheat,
30 cents. Oats and corn sell at 85 cents. About
3000 bushels of oats came in one day this

Fairfield Recorder: To the great loss of our

crop of our county is serieusly injured and

serious damage to the cotton and corn Much
