I General Remarks—The past week in the gen eral market was a very quiet one. with little to relieve the monotony of the usual summer dull ness prevailing at this time. The principal •Matures of the markets were the firmness in cotton and naval stores, and the slight reaction in all food products, which show a declining tendency. The money market, while not to say easy, is in somewhat better condition than it was, and the banks are managing to supply their regular customers. Collections are again g ow and failures are being reported in the in terior with more than the usual frequency. The demand from out of town buyers was iu pretty fair volume, and the movement of general merchandise is even better than the average for this time of the year. The most activity noticeable was in the wholesale grocery trade. Orders are arriving steadily and the shipping movement is quite fair. The provision trade is somewhat duller than heretofore. In dry goods there was very little doing and jobbers will be soon making preparations for their fall stocks. Hardware business as a whole is light and most houses are engaged in taking stocks. The lumber trade keeps up a very steady traffic, and shipments are quite heavy. The demand tor building materials is also very good. In other departments there is a fair amount of business in progress. Securities are quiet, though with a fair inquiry for a few of the leading securities and local stocks for investment. The following resume of the week's business will show the tone and thj latest closing quotations of the different mar kets to-day: Naval Stores. —'The market for spirits tur pentine was firm during tho past week, and prices advanced steadily, opening the week at 34}$c. for regulars; it sold up to 35tic., but closed to-day firm at 33c. There was a tair de mand, but the offerings were barely sufficient to meet the current inquiry. The total sales for the week were about 3,500 barrels. Rosin— the market ruled quite steady throughout the week, and the demand has continued fair. The receipts show a considerable increase over list year, but the stock is moving out liberally, which keeps the supply well in hand, and prices are fairly firm. The sales for the week were about 10,000 barrels. In another col umn will be found a weekly comparative table of receipts and exports from April 1 to date, and for a like period last year, showing the stock on hand and on shipboard not cleared, together with the official closing quotations. Cotton.— The spot market was quiet, but prices were strong and advanced steadily dur ing the week, closing to-day quiet and firm, with ciuotations fully %c higher in all grades. The demand was quite slow, while the offerings are very small and the stock well in band. The receipts at the ports, though small, were slightly heavier in comparison with last year’s, but the belief is that the very high price for spot cotton has forced the increased receipts, which will soon be exhausted. Controlling markets are quite strong yet, but there appears to be some dis trust among speculators, and fears of a reaction in the near future are entertained. The total sales this week were 200 bales, at the following official quotations of the cotton exchange: Good middling 12 Middling 11-34 Low middling 11 Vfj Good ordinary 10}$ Sea Islands— Factors report the receipts for the week at 7 bags and the sales 12 bags. Tne exports were 91 bags, all to Liverpool. There was nothing new to report in tne market during the week, and the business was only scattering, including all sorts There is hardly any stocs to speak of in first hands and prices were pretty well maintained. The above sales were on the basis of quotations: Good stapled seedy cotton 21}5®22% Good medium 21% Medium fine 22 Fine 23 Extra fine to choice 21 The receipts of cotton at this port from all sources the past week were 1,550 bales of up land and 7 bales sea island, against 321 bales of upland and 4 bales sea island last year. The particulars of the receipts have been as follows: Per Central railroad. 879 bales up land; per Savannah, Florida and Western rail way, 158 bales upland and 7 bales sea island; per Savannah river steamers 3 bal-s upland; per Charleston and Savannah railway. inS bal -s upland, per Darien and Altanmha steamers 4 bales upland. The exports for the week were 4.165 bales of upland and 91 bales of sea island, moving as follows: To New York. 2,695 bales upland and 91 bales sea island; to Boston. 467 bales upland; to Baltimore 1,003 bales upland. The stock on hand to-day was 7,868 bales upland and 191 bales sea island, against 1,758 bales upland and 926 bales sea island last year. Rice.—The market was very firm throughout the week, with quite an active inquiry, and all the available stock of clean on the market changed hands. The total sales for the week were fully 2,500 barrels. The receipts of rough this week were about 1,000 bushels, which, a-lded to the amounts in the mills, makes about 13,000 bushels in stock yet to be milled out, which will form the nucleus of supply for the balance of the season, although it is ru mored that there is a considerable amount of the foreign grain on the way here. The above sale3 were on the basis of quotations. Small job lots are held at }s@%c. higher.

The Nun cotton review says; “Futures opened at a pretty smart advance. Liverpool ca ne unexpecctedly strong. Tnen came the announcement of the closing of that market from to-day till next Wednesday for Whitsun tide holidays, and it wa* seen tltat the improve ment in futures there was probably due to a demand to cover contracts over these holidays. Hence there was with us a good deal of selling to realize, under which most of the early ad vance was lost. August was the only active month. Weather report* from the south con tinue very favorable, and next crop was neg lected, though show iug no decided weakness. Cotton on spot was dull and prices were barely maintained.’’ Weekly net receipts at New Y’ork 608 bales, grosa 10,811; exports, to Great Britain 7,611 bales, to France 603, to the continent 2,997; forwarded 1,21)6 halos; sales 1,813 bales, to spinners 1,813 bales.
