the general markets, and business gen

cepting in a jobbing way. The dentand
for everything,, excepting Sugars, Moles
., ses and Syrups, is restricted mainly to
,:. tsupplying immediate wants, aa there is
an entire absence of anything like a
speculative feeling, and prices are with
. • out Important change. Strong hopes,
however, are still entertained`of a good
Spring trade, and it is probable that it
will soon begin to show itself, as the
time of year is near at hand.

OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
.FR/DA.Y, Feb. 26, 1869,
The market was panicky, and, to use
• a common expression, a little sick to
day, and, compared with yesterday, pri
ces are lower. There are various causes
assigned for the present reaction, the
most prominent of which is the fact that
according to the latest circulars from
Philadelphia, there are but three ves
sels loading in that port, showing that
demand for export is very light, and, in
addition, tue supply is accumulating. It
is said that exporters cannot and will
not pay the present prices, as 57 frantis
at Antwerp is equal to abont 33 eta. in
Philadelphia, and the demarid for spec
tilatorascems to have subsided •for the
present—it i 7 a rare thing to see sPeen
lators buy on a decilning,market. There
are those, however,. who contend that
this whole thing is the result of a strong
and vigerous bear, movement—brought
about by parties who are largely short,
and whose interest, of course, is to break
'the market as baldly: as possible.
CRUDE—A a already, intimated, the
ick
market was decidedly-weak, and pall
y to.day, with a stronger pressure to
sell, and compared
