THE POliK TRADK. 



The hoB market has grown i-uddei.ly inanirante and dull 

 at Loui->ville- All offers at $4fi hundred gross have beet.' 

 withdrawn, and buyers are to miike no more contracts 

 at that figure. Sellers, howevet, have offered none at Iowa 

 er rates. 



In Cincinnati there is also little disposition to invest at 

 present prices iu odvaiiro of the season. A sale cf 21 Iliad, 

 howe er, was made at $5 50 for delivery on the 15th of No- 

 vember. The Commercial ea.vs of th» provisiouK: 



There is probably a little better tone In the provision 

 market, and holders are less willing to sell at the last quo- 

 fed figures tor bacoq, though buyers say that plenty may 

 be had There were reporud sales of 'MO bbis mes.f pork 

 last evening at $13 50. and .'lOObbls at $13 7ft; lOOOhhds b%- 

 cou sides at 9»/^- Wc leard also of a sales of 200 hhds bacon

The ludianapolis Jovrral < f Thursday says: 



Contracts for bogs have been made in J.onsiville at $3 

 grOPS. Th» sanie prices prevail at Lafayette and Tincennes. 



There i.i but little dispcsition on the part of holders 

 to sell ut these figures, as the indications ehow a not very 

 large surplus of pork in the county. The only hog rals 

 ing S'ate showing an increase in ijumbers is Kentucky, 

 while the crop in Illinois, 'ndiana and Ohio will not be to 

 large as it was in 1858 The season for pack ng will open 

 about the middle of November. The rates offered in this 

 cit for hogs are about the same as the figures we have 

 given for otiier paces.
