COMMERCIAL.
Wku.ingtox, Sept. 29. Messrs Laery and Campbell report that business this week has, so far, beon far from brisk. I’otatoes are almost without enquiry, but excepting for cargoes, sales have not beon forced ; onions are quite out of the market ; oats are in full stocks, with very little business doing ; cheese may still be quoted as nominally worth 4d to but is without enquiry ; bacon and hams are a drug at (5d to 7d ; fresh butter sold at 1/ to 1/1, the demand being certainly not so keen as last week ; eggs sold freely at 10d to IOId : turkeys, 4/(3 each ; fowls, 3/9 per pair. The attendance at yesterday’s sale was good, but wants were easily satislied. There has been for the past few Saturdays a good demand for useful sorts of horses at the Nag’s Head Yards, and the supply has not been up to the demand. Nearly all horses that have been entered during the past month found purchasers. [By Tei-kgrai’H.] Cuuistciiokcii, This Day. The grain market is not very active this week. Wheat—-4/4 to 4/(5; oats—--/l for milling, and 1/10 to 2/ for feed quality. Barley is up to 3/(5, but dairy produce of all kinds is dull.
