Bpttku.—R eceipts for the week, 15,050 plcgs. The. 
mmhot for state good to fancy grades, is 11 rm i hut, 
trade is not quick and smooth, as holders seem aim- 
ini: to force strong figures. Thin they are warranted 
in doing, as some of tlie best lines now coming for¬ 
ward have been bought high. Perhaps It. would he 
better if even a slight concession were made to Job¬ 
bers, ns distributors want stock, but rather bang 
hack when an upward tone is given to late prices. 
Holders, however, contend Lhata good many pel in¬ 
voices now arriving cannot ho replaced later on. and 
tln-y will take thn clianeos of their views becoming 
established. The general volume of local trade is 
better, being more wlutor-like, and a fair Eastern 
demand helps to enliven the market tutd reduce 
stock. Shippers have taken a tew parcels of State; 
but what little Is doing tor export may soon be at¬ 
tracted to Western,as (lie latter quality Is Improving
