Aug. 21, 1991. \ General Remarks—Conditions have not changed very materially in the general market during the past week. The continuous heat and the rains were un '< yjrable to business, but jt was not interfered with to any great extent, jobbers report a very fair complement of or ders by mail from travelers and a fair trade was reached. There were also i nmmber of interior buyers on the spot looking over the market, but their operations are restricted as yet and confined to actual requirements. The movement in gen eral merchandise is slower than it was at this time last year, due of course to the extreme cautiousness mail Tested all around and the g!r.wness in the cotton movement. The outlook does not improve much as the season advances, while collections are still unsatisfactory. The money market still continues close. Exchauge in weak. The security market is stagnant. The freight market continues quiet, with plenty of tonnage to arrive offering, but with a glow movement of outward cargoes, and rates are easy except to spot vessels for naval gtores. There was a good demand in the wholesale grocery trade, with a more lil>eral movement. In dry goods the market was quiet, but the actual business was fair. The hardware trade was good, but ap parently is not as heavy as last season. The rest of the market shows but little life. Values os a rule were stronger in provisions and bread stuffs. which in other lines they were to sjme extent easier. The following resume of the weefc’s business will show the tone aud the latest closing quotations of the different markets to day. Naval Stores- The market for spirits tur pentine was rather active during the we*k, though somewhat irregular. Prices were for the most part firm and advanced, regulars touching 34%c. The market, however, toward the close became quieter, with buyers hnd sellers apart, at 34bid for regulars. The total sales for the week were about 5,400 casks. Rosin—The market was quite firm throughout the week, and the higher grades were advanced slightly. The de mand was quite steady, and a pretty fair busi ness was accomplished. The total sales for the week were about 10,000 barrels. In another column will be found a comparative table of receipts and exports for the week and for a like period last year, showing the stock on hand and on ship b >ard not cleared, together with the official closing quotations. Cotton— The receipts of now cotton were quit? fair during the week, although the move ment is not as heavy as last year. As yet, how ever, there are very few buyers stirring about, and but a slow business is doing. The market through the week has been comparatively easy and prices have sold off cin the better qualities and 116 cln the lower grades. The total sales were 565 bales for the week. The following are the official closing spot quota tions of the Cotton Exchange: Good middling 8 Middling 7% Low middling 7 Good ordinary 6 5-16 Ordinary 5 13-16 Sea Islands—The receipts, as reported by factors for the week up to 4 p. m.. were 17 bags, including 2 bags arriving to-day, the first of the new crop,which show up a good style of cotton, being of excellent staple, aud will grade fully fine. The market otherwise has been dull and entirely nominal, not a single buyer being in the market, and no transactions. In the ab sence of business to base quotations on they are omitted.

The demand continues steady for the good ?rades, but with a light offering stock, except or Louisiana, of which there is a liberal quan tity to be bad. Jobbers, however, are only taking in a moderate way or sufficient to cover passing wants. The local distribution is very light, and as fruit is vary plentiful, consumers are largely using it as a temporary substitute. The sales during the week were only nominal from first hands.

The stock market to-dav seemed to a groat extent iu a waiting or trau-r.ory state, and while the larger bulls are letting prices take care of themselves for the time, the boars are not inclined to increase their short lines to any marked extent. The amount of busiucss done to-day was materially less thau the average of lato, and fluctuation were as a rule cjuilapd to narrow limits, and no decided tendency, in prices was shown throughout the great*#* £or tion of the day. The Tise in Sugar continued, but as it is generally attributed to manipula tion, as all late moves in that stock have been, it attracted little attention, and late in the day prevailing dullness overtook it also. London houses were eager buyers this morning a thuy were sellers for some time ar.d while London prices were rati.or lower. t.he first prices here were made at small fractional ad vances over last nigtit'fe figures. The trad ng element was still wording for a reaction, but the general sentiment in the room was conser vatively bullish, and though the sales of traders were sufficient to make a recession of small fractions in tho early trading, the down ward movement then met witti a check, and went no further for Mr* remainder of thef day. One of the objects in gelling short stock wus to discount the possible i>oor bank strueinept t >- morrow, but no one \v*s wi.ling to go vry far on that line, aud the demand was sufficient to ke rt p prioes in the general iist within (jmall fractions of the opening figures rhrougiioitt the day. Late in tie day, after industrial*' had made material gains, the regular list showed some imp. ovemont, but the stimu.us was not v.<ry strong, and tiio market finally closed (lull and fairly steady at or about k i lo level of the first prices. Final changes are irregular, but advances show a majority, and twoug’i the most of the gains are insignificant, Sugar is up IV% per cent., and ijahd trust,National Cordage, Northern Pacific preferred and Tonne ‘see Coal each I*4 per cent., the last two being specially promineut for strength in the afternoon.

But there seems to bo no higher aim among our room traders than to get u ‘scalp as opportunity may offer. Consequently they sold freely at the opening prices, and de clino soon followed.
