The New York Trade Journal of the 16th titys: : , vVe noticed last week the reduction in the National Bank of Commerce. The action of the state In the taxation of bank capital ha brought about a very serious reduction, as will be shown by the lollowing figure. As the money market now stands, this reduction will have no apparent eff.'Ct . but when money 1 once more in demand the trade of New York will be very mu-h inconvenienced.

But this has been at a material cut in values, lard having declined to 8c, and mess pork to $13 90aH. before the movement could be stimulated. From these lowest points there has been a partial recovery at the close to $9 10 bid and 114 15 respectively, with an attendant active and excited speculative market both on the decline, at the lowest point and at the recovery. Indeed the temper of the trade at the -close seemed to be changed iu a great measure from bear to bull tendencies, snd 4 here were some pretty free purchases of futures made both by shippers and speculators on the belief that the bottom had at last Keen fetched and that we were on the point of a reaction In bo.h staples named, ir not la the whole line of hog product. Yet there was not confidence enough In this belief, nor was It umciently general to give strength to the recovery, and the market closed up feaverish And unsettled except on spot lock which ' was quite strong and on a food refining demand, and no excess of efTerngs of new lard either city or western.' in--deed, when the position of the market is noted in connection with the summer packing U is not strange that operators act hesitatingly before entering upon a tettled bull campaign. "The packing from March 1 to June 6 shows about 26 per cent, increase In numbers thU season over last, or over 1.000,000 hogs against Ws than HuO.uoo to the same date last year. In addition to this the average weight to May 1 was materially greater with the prospect of Its continuing so, although there is the usual decrease in welghu as hot weather approaches. On the other hsnd the exports this season to Ute are ao-ut 12ö,000,uu0 lbs ahe d of last year as me date, the largest gain being in bacon, the next in laid and the last in pork. Out of a to tal winter and summer packing to date of about the sme number of hog as latyr, he winter product being about as much leOB Aomber as the summer Is greater than 1 t yrftr. This comparison, however, mut be cnaJifled in this Important respect: the Increased aYeras1? weight of the winter packed

hofi was about equal to the excess in numbers tit tha preceding yetr, making the winter lacking about tho fame, nJ leaving the excess in both nutubr rs and weight of the utm-nv-r p icking to offset the Increased exports, ll-jw mr this i already offM.'t maybe, keen bycomputing the excess of weight on the 1,000,J0 packed and on the 2,ooO head excess pneked, estimating the weights since May 1. In round numbers this would make about one ha f the excoia of exports of l25,UiU.0ou lbs this year over last, leaving the balance of this excess to be overcome by the further excess of this summer's packing over last. In order to ue these figures to Judge of the possible future course of the market, we must consider that the prices of this season are materially below thoHri of last, and should stimulate cnsumption upon the theory of the lower the price the greater thedem-md, which should ct-rtainly hold good this year with wheat at tiie recent and even pre-ent high prices. Lard Is in the neighborhood of iy3c per lb lower than the average of last year and pork 2 per bbl.and prices were even considerably higher than present ones when the bulk of thisexcess of exports was made. Present lower prices should therefore still further stimulate consumption, and the export activity of last week at this decline seems to anticipate this result. On the other band, to offset this, disbelievers in a better market for the future claim that the exces of exports over last year do not represent foreigu consumption, as a greater part of it, if not all or more than all. Is still held on the other side Instead of he. and is still as much a part of our supply as if it were here. Between these conti let lug opinions speculators divide, and the tendency of the market is dilhcult to dlicover until it becomes more settled than now. GRAIN AND FLOCR. We note some improvement in corn to-day at a slight advance on quotations than has prevailed for the past week. Wheat is lower, and oats remain dull and nominal. The following shows the receipts of corn at

Arc ta April.. aVI ftj . -1,774,000 The New York Dally Bulletin of Wednesday says: The situation of the chief staples has not been materially changed, wltn the exception of corn, which has exKTi"nced a sharp reaction under suddenly curtalleu receipts, instead of the heavy ones of the two preceding weeks and the attendant depression. This staple ha actually become scarce in the face of a large and continued shipping demand, notwithstanding the heavy shipments since the first large arrivals by canal came on the market. Tlii export outlet has leen kept open notwithstanding there has been no advance as vet in the British markets to compensate for the advance here. This has been due to a decline In steum freights from 6d to Id to Liverpool, which has offset the advance, or at least most of it, heie. But there seems to be great confidence in corn among shippers at these current admitted low rates, and only the fear of hot com keeps the market from a still further advance. The British markets hive so far remained steady in th face of the late very heavy exports, and this naturally imparts new confidence to the future of values and creaUs an increased demand for futures, whleh hs caused an advance on options nearly as large as on spot corn (except steamer, at the cloe, wuich was extremely scarce, and Jumped up 4'c per bushel from the lowest point,) which has advanced sharply on light receipts here and small shipments on the canals and lakes, with prospects of light receipts in this month and next such as to influence the upward tendency. At the close this tendency was more marked than during the week, and the market was more excited, both by demand from shorts to cover and from ehjppers to (ill their order, while there were few sellers of either spots or futures, the bears or sellers of last week now being buyers. Wheat has moved for export and milling slowly, yet. the movement has been about sufficient to steady the market under light stocks and rec-ipts, and the closing prices are not very materially lower than the opening, yet the aggregate business has oeen small ca 1 the position of the market appears to be unchanged from that of the former week. Flour of all grades above No. 2 and supers has been steadier, and the higher grades, both of shipping and trade brands, have been stronger than last week, and although rot much advance has bten established except on city mills, yet old outside prices are now more general, whereas a week ago the inside ones were. Citv mllis. however, are 15(i4'20c higher both on West India and English brands,which former especially have been active at the advance at the close, while buyers and sellers are 2 c apart on regular state and western extras, 5 Tj being bid for standard brands and 87 a-ked. Supers and No. 2 have been In good ilemad at old prices for the provinces. Minnesotas for baker' use, as well as patentvwero aciveat the close and firm, but no higher, while winters of all Kinds were steady, but quiet. ' GROCERIES. We have no special change to note in groceries. Stocks are ample ana prices strong. The New York market Is recorded as follows by the Daily Bulletin of Wednesday: Probably the most noteworthy feature during last week was the giving way of hohteis on the market for sweets, both Ruzar and raoInsses, and - their product Belling at a decline. 1 lie snauing on raw sugars was vc per 10, bringing cost dwn to a basis of luiilu'ie for fair to good refining, at which mere lias since been a show of steadiness, but no infusion of positive strength, or much. II any, increase of demand. Direct lmortation, pretty free receipts on purcluwes to ar.ive and a slow distribution of their product left refiners in a somewhat lndependeut position, and this, coupled with, less favorable reports from Cuba, induci importers to offer from la ding parcels, etc., at he reduction sbove named, especially on museovaJoes, the centrifugal grades not shading more than 1-löc. Accumulations in store, however, were held off the market, and In the majority of cases could scarcely be reached except at the lull rates previously ruling. Molas-es nns been very dull and weak, finally closing with sellers reducing their views to 50, and the bids, as a rule, standing at 4Sc for 50 lest. As with sugar, the supplies going in boilers' hands have been pretty full of late and the demand was much reduced, while the natural tendency was to shade bids, toward which there has been a response of about 2c per gallon. Domestic has been dull and much is good enough to satisfy buyers at a cost exceeding 60c. Hyrapsof all kinds were dull and nominally unchanged, but could be bought lower. Hugarhouse without demand. Coffees ruled firm. Brazils have had the stimulus of continued favorable telegrams from Rio Janeiro, and this induced Importer to hold to their stocks with streng h and confidence, but they have failed to receive the encouragement of much demand. A delay in th receipts of telegraphic advices may have had something to do with this, but the main cause was undoubtedly a slow Interior distribution which induced Jobbers to hold bacK for the tint". A steamer at hand at the close of tue week brought a very good assortment of samples, and it is hoped these will attract atten t ton . West I nd la grades have been d till, as a rule, but held their own on price, and have been sparingly offered. On Java there has been a liberal movement, and a generally better market. In view of the position of the stock here, the sales were from necessity from second hands, but these covered about 10,000 mats, and there was also something bought to arrive (probably 2,0u0 to 8,000 piculs) from the first cargoes due, about September next, with no rates named, but as high as 23c gold bid and refused. In dry goods trade is op to the expectations of merchants, and all things considered, has been fair during the past season. . The New York market is reported as follows in the Dally Bulletin of the 13th Inst: .. , The trade movement has been comparatively alow with the oot ton goods commlwion houses to day, bat the business of the week now closed has been large and satisfactory for the time of year. Fall good of certain descriptions could probably have been distributed in even larger amounts than was the case if holders had evinced a wi.llngnes to date bills larther ahead, but this they prudently declined to do, and so checked a tendency toward speculation In some makes of good which are unquestionably cheap at current quotations. The usual Saturday quiet has prevailed in the Jobbing trude, and transactions were mainly lestricted to filling orders received by mall and telegraph from ainereni pans oi ineountton Goods. The market has been less ao-

tlvn than during the early days of the week, but prices are very steadily maintained by agents on all the most staple fabric. Four yard and fine brown sheetings, as well as low grade bleached shirtings, are in very light supply in first hands, but leading Jobbers hold ample stocks for the ruru.nce of current tiwie. Denims and dyed ducks are alto well sold up and firm at ruling rates, and the most fopular makes of eorset Jeans and satteens are n strictly moderate supply. Low priced grain bags continue in steady demand, but the better qualities are moving slowly. Cotton batts are more inquired for, and are held at an advance upon prices current at this time last year. Prints. There has been a limited demand for medium and light fancy prints from agents' hands, and considerable quantities of low priced fancies were distribute)' in paeksge and piece lots by the leading Jobbers. There was a continued inquiry for dark lancy staple firints, but transactions were checked by the ight supply oHeriug at prices which buyers re disposed to pay. Wide prints were in strictly moderate request at first hands, but are Jobbing fairly. Ginghams were in stendy demand In dress styles and staples, and continue very firm at current quotations. Dress Joods. There was little animation in fancy dress fabrics, but leading mskes of black alpacas were reported a little more active, and buntings continued In fair request. Worsted Serges. There was a steady movement in lining serges and agents are still in arrears with their deliveries of the best ma i es which are steadily held. Many of the new styles of these fabrics manufactured by the Farr alpaca company are largely sold to arrive, i WOOLKN GOODS. The market for woolens has exhibited no new features of Importance to-day. The current sales were moderate in the aggregate amount, but the deliveries on account of previous engagements and in closing np the week's business footed up a liberal total. The traffic of the week among mannfacturera' agents ban been more spirited in a few descriptions of standard fabrics, and there was an important increase In the volume of trade in this connection, with Indications of a further improvement In the woolen goods business during the remaining portion of the current year. Overcoatings, heavy fancy easslmeros and suitings, Kentucky Jeans and doeskins, plain and twilled flannels, have received more attention from buyers, and sales of each were made by agents to a considerable aggregate. We have no changes to note in the wool market. Receipts are fair and prices slow. The New York market was reported as follows by the Dally Bulletin of the 16th : The situation of the market In a general way does not greatly change. A scarcity of attractive supplies continues to keep business in rather dull shape, and for many grades leaves values to a certain extent nominal; but on the whole the current undertone Is a pretty strong one, and dealers Incline to the belief that when they get some'htng to work wllh a very good business can be done for a short time at least, and at reasonably full rates. Manufacturers are known to be quite short, and must handle some material to keep machinery in motion, to supply which it is calculated many of the early receipts will find ready sale. Choice clips of fine wools and offerings averaging full on combing are talked of with most confidence, though there Is a steady fear that interior valuations will run so high as to curtail supplies when they are required, hold them until consumers are driven off, and then, on the attempt to seek a market, come in with such a rush as to break down the rate to an unreasona bly low figure. We learn that a great many buyers are now at the west, but not submitting to the extreme views of farmers, which range as hlih as 40 aitöc for Ohio, with Inside figures probably as high as has been paid. A lew samples of new Ohio are here, but not enough as yet to make a market value. For fu esent wants buyers are still dependent largey upon the stock of California. The transac tlons during the week embrace 6,0110 lbs Ohio fleeces. 3,0)4) lbs do, both old ; 3,000 lbs medium unwashed, ItiOO lbs low flews, 5.000 lbs Virginia fleeces, 21 bags No 2 pulled, 2H bags No 1 do, 61 bags extra do,.2.r0 bags super and lambs do, 1.50 bags super do, 5 bags lambs do on private terms; 1,000 lbs fall California lörtt20c; 37,000 lbs do WZTfUw; 30,000 lbs do 16'c; ;2,ujo lbs spring do 2ic2Sc : 5,000 lbs Georgia at 30c ; a small lot coarse do 30c; 1,000 lbs do, 30,"0 lbs Eastern Texas onprivate terms; 5.000 lbs improved Western Texas at 21c; 60,000 lbs do 23 r2fc; 30,ocO lbs coarse do I.V4I8C ; 15,000 lbs eastern do 2427c : 4.000 lbs do 2!te ; 80,000 lls Utah. 47.0IX) lbs Australian on private terms. The produce markets have been fairly active during the week, with a good demand for eggs and poultry at our quotations. The New York market was reviewed as follows by the Dally Bulletin of Monday, 18th instant: F.zgs. Receipts to-day 2,436 bbls. Moderate orders only are received, and generally buyers are in a careful mood, which prevents the handling of stock beyond the immediate wauts of the day. Holders, however, have the advantage of small accumulations and reports from the interior Indicating continued light shipments, and full rates are quite generally insist'd upon. Some of the arrivals from extreme points have rtin poorly In quality of ate. To-day holders' Ideas are up to iSc for choice western, and the close pretty firm all around.

The New York Dally Bulletin of Wednesday comments as follows: As the season progresses and the marketing of the new clip assumes more decided form, there is naturally an Increase ol interest all around, and at present there is also apparent an undertone of a somewhat feverish character. The general statistical position Is a strong one, as admitted by both buyers and sellers, and the ruling range of values comparatively low; two important features which, on the one hand, tend to Induce an Inclination toward buovancy, and reasonably free purchases of desirable supplies as they may come upon sale. On the other band, however, the condition of the goods trade can not be overlooked, and Is considereda strong neutralizing Influence against extravagant ideas 011 price of wools. There is -'money in woolens," of course, and a great many manufacturers have done very fairly during the past year, notwithstanding complaints to the contrary; but the margin was small, and every attempt made to secure a wider line of profit had a tendency to drive off buyers, and frequently lose their orders altogether. Indeed, consumers, to a large extent, are the controlling power, and the prices obtained for fabrics have to be duly anu closely considered in determining the cost of material, instead of the value placed upon material being permitted to form a base for the rates on its product. Indications already point to very wxal'ed Ideas among growers In many sections, and especially in fine fleeces, of which the old stocks are exhausted, and a great many manufacturers must have a few as soon as they can get them Imperative wants satisfied, however, demand is likely to cease, and the market relapse into that peculiarly unsatisfactory position of a stanC off between buyers and sellers, the one seeking to force concessions and the other to maintain tha ad vantage gained. The supplies now on the seaboard are composed In the main of California and Texas growth, mainly the first named. Really good selections of these ell fairly, and command a pretty fair prlc", which holders on the whole are inclined to accept. Common grades are dull and uncertain, and inferior stock generally quite neglected, even at comparatively low figures. Foreign grades are reported quiet, but former rates asked, with clothing slock steady I and carpet styles quite firm. j ON 'CHANGE.
