Augusta, Ga., May 4,18G6. j
REMARKS.
The week just closed has been an exceedingly
dull one in nearly all branches of business, and we
have very few changes to make in our quotations.
Bacon, which lros advanced in Baltimore, Cincin
nati, and other leading markets, shows a firmer
feeling in our local market, and we advance our
quotations for Shoulders and Sides about lc. per
lb. Cora, in consequence of the rather large supply
on the market, shows a decline of 3 to sc. per
bushel.
FINANCIAL
We have but little change to make in our quota
tions for Bank Notes and Securities. The inquiry
for most of the Securities now on the market is
dull, with a declining tendency in prices, though
sales have been made during the week of some of
the more desirable classes fully up to our quota
tions, viz.: Old State of Georgia Bonds, six per
cents, at 85 and 86c., and seven per cents 90c.; City
of Augusta Bonds at 86 and 87c.; Georgia Rail
Road Stock at 90c. Specie has fluctuated but little
during the week. Via quote Gold and Silver as
follows:
Gold, buying 120 a ..
Gold, selling 127}£a ..
Silver, buying 120 a
Silver, selling 125 a
SUNDRIES.
PROVISIONS.—In our last Circular we reported
a decline in Bacon. Within the last day or two,
owing to a recent advance in the leading markets
North and West, prices here have stiffened, and a
better feeling prevails. A portion of the decline
has been recovered, and we now quote Ribbed
Sides 16a19c. per lb., and Shoulders 15a16> a c.;
Clear Sides 20021 c.; Hams 24a26c., accoiding to
quality. Mess Beef and Mess Pork are not much in
demand. The 6tock of Lard in market is limited,
and prices have advanced. We quote Prime Leaf
23a25c. per lb.; Pressed 21a23c.
GRAIN. —Corn has arrived in considerable quan
tities during the week, and until the last few' days
was taken quite freely at our last week's quota
tions; but within the last day or two prices have
been less firm, and we now quote White $1 45al 50
per bush.; Yellow $1 42al 45, the inquiry being
principally for Yellow. Oats are in good demand,
aTOOc. per bush. Other kinds of Grain not in much
demand.
FLOUR.—There is no movement of Interest in
this article, and wc refer to our Prices Current for
quotations.
DOMESTICS.—We note a decline of about lc.
per yd. in Cotton Goods, and quote as follows: 7-8
Shirtings 17c.: 4-4 Sheetings 21c.; Drills 23c..;
Osuaburgs 26a27c.
BAGGING AND ROPE.—These articles are dull
and neglected, and w'e quote Gunny 28c. per yd.
Bale Rope 20a22c. per lb.
IRON.—Refined OalOc.; Swede* Iron, lOallc.;
Sheet Iron, 12>£c.; Nail Rod, 20c.
SUGAR.—There has been no change in the price
of Sugar during the w r eek, and no movement of
interest. We renew last week’s quotations, and
refer to our Price List.
COFFEE.—We quote Rio 28a30c. per lb.; Java
44a46c.
BUTTER.—There is very little good Butter on the
market, and prices are full. We quote Goshen, by
the keg, 60a65c. per lb.
RICE.—The supply on sale iB limited, and prices
Tange from 15 to 17c. per lb., according to quality.
SALT.—We quote Liverpool $1 75a2 00 per sack,
and very dull.
HAY.—Northern $200a2 25; Eastern $1 75a200.
HIDES.—Dry Hides find ready sale at 15a16c.,
and Green at 4c. per lb.
LlME.—Northern $1 00 per bbl.
TOBACCO.—The market continues dull, and
transactions limited. No change in prices. Com
*mon 25a30c. per lb.; Medium 40a50c.; Good 50a
60c.; Good Medium Sound 60a80c.; Fine 90a$l 00,
with a few Fancy Brands of superior quality, at
higher figures.

Charleston $2 50 per bale.
COTTON - .
COTTON.—Our last Weekly Report, Friday,
April 27th, found our market in a depressed
and declining condition, from tho tenor of
recent European advices. We then quoted,
nominally, Middling 28c.; Strict Middling 29c..
Good Middling 30c.
Throughout the week, since our last, tha
market has continued dull and inactive, with
declining prices, so irregular as to render quo
tations useless, if not impossible, gnd we hear
of but few sales during the week.
Since Wednesday, May 2d, however, the
feeling has improved, and is daily growing
stronger. A few sales have been made at an
improvement on the lowest point reached.
Our latest advices from the West represent
great damuge lo the lahdi* and crops from
high water, and such accounts as w© hav© seen
of th© steadiness and reliability of the freed
men, as voluntary laborers, give no reason to
oaloulate an inorease on the general estimates
of the coming crop. Holders are, therefore,
generally unwilling to sell at present prices
and refhse to accede to the offers of buyers,
Quotations are still somewhat unsteady; the
following will about cover the margin between
buyers and sellers :
Middling v-f. 25 a 26
Strict Middling 26 a 27
Good Middling 27 a 28
The stock on hand Msy Ist, was 15,093 bales.
The shipments to Savannah by Rail Road during
the month of April were 18,590 bales, and by River
1,943 bales.

The following we clip from the
Weekly Cotton Circular of William Bryce
& Cos., New York, of the 27th ult.:
Our last Circular was issued on tho 20th
inst., and since then we are in receipt of
Liverpool advices to the evening of the 14th
inst. Wc have to note a very serious decline
in the price of Cotton, amounting to three
pence to three pence half penny per pound.
Tho causes which have led to the decline
have been indicated in our previous circu
lars, viz: excessive receipts both in Liver
pool and at our own ports, uncertainty re
garding the amount yet to come forward,
and the belligerent attitude of two of the
great powers of Europe. Tho lest two
steamers which have sailed for Europe have
carried advicei favorable to higher prices,
and will \end to check the panic which
is raging in Liverpool.
Our market has been dull for the week,
and prices have tended steadily downward
where sales have been forced. The view of
holders have been uniformly above those of
buyers, hence business has been restricted,
ns holders found support and encourago
mont in tho advices from the South received
by mail and telegraph. Tho Mississippi has
broken through the levees in many places,
and flooded the newly-sown lands, and thus
seriously damaged the crop prospects in that
section. The news from Alabama, Georgia
and Carolina, continues of the same tenor
regarding the non-germination of tho seed,
and the migratory desires of the Freedmcn.
Since the unfortunate passage of the Civil
Rights Bill the Freedmen in many sections
are reported as still less to be depended
upon than before, their ignorance supposing
the Bill to be the one they have so earnestly
anticipated, conferring upon them the liberty
of laziness, and reducing the white citizens
to the negro level. The wilful misconstruc
tion by interested parties of a measure like
\ this, ill-advised as at best it is, will not only
• reduce tho crop below its even now probably
; low limits, but throws obstacles in the way
1 of reconstruction of a far more serious
i character.
• Its Committee have reported to the House
; of Representatives the Bill containing the
• proposed five cent tax on Cotton in such a
form that we regret to say there is but
little hope of its not passing.
The covetous grasp of the Radical hand
is mauifest in this new form of the Bill ; as
first proposed, the burden of the tax fell on
. the foreign anil domestic manufacturer ; as
amended, it falls on the producer. Not
only is the tax placed entirely on the pro
ducer, but the domestic manufacturer is re
lieved of any tax on its manufactures. Injus
tice stops not here, but the Bill provides that,
when the manufactured goods are exported,
the manufacturer may convert to his own
advantage the heavy tax paid by the pro
ducer. The Bill has not Jmt become a law,
and mast sincerely do we hope that the
Conservative vote will be so swelled by the
• votes of those whom a sense of justice can
move as to enable the Radical phalanx to
bo pierced> and defeat the Bill in its present
form, and thus not render the Internal
Revenue system of the United States an
example of the concentration of taxation,
but of its equitable distribution.
If this Bill becomes a law it will cause a
quick demand from exporters to get their
Cotton on the other side, and the advantage
of the prompt payment of the present tax
f need' not be mentioned.
