Atlanta, April 22, 1801.
Yesterday's work wss of the most promising
character. A buoyancy iu Produce is manifest,
which is quite satisfactory to our dealers, and
large and remunerative sales were made.
Corn is in very active demand again, and
prices are firm at from 81($83 for Yellow; 87
(ip91 for Whits; 80@85 for Inferior White.
Bacon is freoly bought at 10, 12 and 13, for
Shoulders, Hams sod Sides. Some large trans-
actions have been made at a shade less.
Flour is moving readily, and the demand ex
hibits a marked improvement. Eveiy quality
can be obtained at trom $8@$9— a fair article
can be bought for $7 25.
Lard is steady at 124(g) 13c.
Groceries aud Provisions generally are in fair
demand, and the market is favorable to buy
ers.
In Dry Goods and other branches, trade seema
to be prospering, and the prospect of a fair orop
year is already being felt agreeably by our
merchants.
The rash of freight from the West is slack
ing off, and goods come through now without
extra oharges at Nashville. The odds and ends
of lots are arriving, which is a sure indication
that the warehouses are cleared. No rumors
of detained freight any where but Cincinnati.
St. Louis stands firm, and a large number of
the river boats have offered to transport 100
troops, asch, to New Orleans Jree, which speaks
well for the Missourians. This is the principal
point at which our supplies were bought, and,
with Louisville, can furnish all that may here
after be needed.
The Cincinnati papers say the detained goods
were to preserve them from destruction by the
mob, 4c.—others say they are charged with
treason if they ship South, and don't know
what to do. To these we only reply that we
consider it a disgrace to buy in Cincinnati from
our opponents, and we will not subject you to
accusation by your community.
Receipts per Western 4 Atlantic Railroad
for Atlanta yesterday were as follows:
Corn.. 2,784 sacks.
Flour 218 barrels.
Bacon 185 hogshead* and 27 boxes.
Lard 340 packages.
