COMMERCIAL. Argus Office, Tuesday afternoon. Business during the week has maintained a fair average—a good demand existing for general Produce. —The price of oats has varied during the week from 4s Gd to 7s. A load from Wakatip was disposed of at 6s per bushel; and we believe several hundred bushels of new oats changed hands at 4s Gd. The retail price may be quoted at 6s 6d for new oats, and 7s for old. These prices will, however, be greatly reduced in a week or two, when it is expected a full supply will be forwarded from the Wakatip and our own immediate neighborhood.
