AUCTION SALES YESTERDAY. Tendeucy to Fall inthe Price of G and cerlete Cautious—Prices ‘trong Dewaward Pressure and the Reasons tor It. The usual semi-weekly sales at auction were resumed yosterday, buyers baying been permitted to rest during the holidays and auctioneers having hushed their yolcos fora brief respite to be whiled away in quiet feasting, In dry goods and fancy goods, as well as ready made clothing and farpisbing goods, the market opens with the year dull as at any time in December, William Topping & Co, offered yesterday a largo stock of dress goods, Munem goods of all sorts, boots and shoos, and gonts’ furnishing goods ia goneral, being one of the Jargest consiguments of the season, Bidders were, howerer, few and eautious, and ouly small lots were taken at aa extremely reduced figura KR. 7, Hazell & Co. offered also a small consignment of hardware, cut. lery and faney goods, without, howerer, eliciting any serious competition—though the hardware trade has euffered less from the gonoral stagnation than any 1!) of business except the trade tn breadatuifs and groceries, Smail lots only wero taken, and these with ezceediag caution ow the part the bidder, The usual Ki @ of Hoyt & Wheelor comprised a heavy con- t of foreign and domestic dry goods, ladies’ and gent "es winter goods of all soriy aad a small con- wgoment of ready wade clothing, whieh was taken sparingly. Prices did not vary materially from the list already reported, though buyers were even less eager— alact exceediugly discouraging, since even at the De- cember list it was aimost iinpossibie to get rid of con- signments, Thorue & Decamp oifered a similar cata- logue which met with asimiiar reception, tho protita being hardly suffictemt to pay for the shouting—and these constututed'the principal offera of dry goods fur the Demand Saat in the way of groceries the domand was more enger, with a tendency, howe to force down the list of prices, This tendenoy, in' fact, is now being strongly felt by the holders of consignments, Both retailers and Jobbers buy cautiously and at the lowest possible figure, ‘Tue reasons are br etly these:—Owing to reduced mone- tary resources on the part of the great mass of buyers, the grocery trade is duller than it has been for many months, A large por centage of their usual customers haying been thrown out of employment, the aggregate retail trade in groceries bas fallen of (it 1@ estimated) lgaat ten per cent Still larger numbers of customers bave been reduced to the bareat necessaries of life, many of those latter be- ing customers who bave heretofore bought liberally in the way of provision for their Hiex =Smail deaters are also more cautious in permitting aceounts to be opened with tl owing to the fact thi aggregate losses bave been incurred den inability to pay of persons who hi in receipt of ole Incomes, A descent in the list of Ppriges through the pressure of the mass upon the re tailer and the reactionary pressure of the retail interest upon the jobber may therefore be anticipated, and is, in fact, Ouly a question of time. ‘thia descent com- passed, one step in the readjustment of the price of tabor to the present scale of comuercial values will have been taken, As it 18, jobbers and retailers buy cautiously and fp Yory stnall Jote to suit the immediate necessities of the H. Burdott & Oo, offered yesterday a con- of fivo bundrod boxes of Havana sugar, tly damaged. Cousiderable competition was she consequence, F. J. Parker, 107 Wali street, offered also a heavy consignment of the Or molasses, of whion four hundred barrela alist of prices ranging from 79% cents for prime to 874 cents for extra. Tho following echodule exhibis the prices commanded by the differeut brands:— Brand, Barrel Cen, Brand, Barrels Cents, Rowe Hill... 69 14 2 Evan Hill... 70 85 au 86 1934 834 8235 82 80 — i Total.....d11 7944 to 8734 was not particularly eagor, though tor waut of previous lists no comparison of prices can be made, Sates tots taken all were small and in quantities to suit re. 1, M. Hoffman, Son & Co,, sold also a portion of their consignment of New Orloans sugar (new crop), prices ranging too high for general gale, and the minimum of the ag od exeeeding the maximum of the cautious bigder, Four bidders only entered the hats, to whom the following lota were sold :. Brand, Hhds, a Brand, Hhdy ail consignment of thirty-flvo barrels were taken at prices rangi ty barrols of molasses, ing from eighty-three to eighty-nime conta, The following ls the hist:— : Brand, Bilt, Cents, Brand, Bvle Cents, ~ Me Feseeeeld 83 eee saseeseces 000085 83 to 89 Of this consignment not more than oue-fifth was soid, owing to the high price demanded—a lesson to pro- ducers not to set too high & value on their waros ia ‘these times of genoral stagnation, In fact the tendency to deflection 1s just now boing strongly felt among Anotioneers and jobbers in the grocery jine, and that this tendency cannot fail of somo effect in the course of 0 few weoks may be confidently predicted. ‘ A RAMBLE ALONG THE RIVER FRONTS, ‘There is very little tce 1a the North and East rivera, ‘The burnt district in Bridge street isagain occupied by massive warehouses, : Stoue street is almost impassable from the acouma- lation of dirt, rubbish, &c,—monuments to the indiffer- ence of our street commission. Unsightly heaps of dirt also tmpede the traffic of the lower portion of Broadway. The Battery, in its present condition, is a burning dis- grace to the city.

The firmness of the market is, however, independent of these temporary causes, and the fact that it has not declined since tho ‘Treasury commenced the payment ofthe January interest shows that the effvot of the lat- ter was fully anticipated. Nearly all the bonds of 1847 which have just matured are owned by persons residing In Europe, and the redemption of these is progressing slowly owing to thelr being rogistered and the powers of attorney authorizing parties here to collect the In- terest not being in all cases satisfactory with regard to the principal, ‘The bill proposed by General Butler ts genorally ap- proved by mercantile men, as they would rogard tho immediate revival of trade an one of the certain resully of sueh @ measure; but the more conservative portion of the community are opposed to it because they know that fresh inflation would only act asa palliative and not a3 a remody for the financial and eommercial evila of the situation, But the most Intelligent and far sighted even of these would rather witness the proposed inflation than a eoatinuance of dr. MoCul- loch’s polloy of contraction, for the ultimate result of tho latter would be a widespread commercia! panto, fol- lowed »y national bankruptcy. The Senate should therefore lose no time when it moots in passing thé anti-contraction bill, whieh passed the House by a large majority, The coutraotion of tho past year, by being largely in excess of what it shouid have been, has worked incalculable mischief throughout the couatry nd {ts evil effects aro still in process of developmont, Tho jo2se8 in business of nearly all kinds Lave under- mined previously strong houses and swept away the entire capita! of many, failures and private settle ments baving beea unusually numerous for more (han #ix months past, It is surprising, under all the circum- stances, that comparatively fow should have taken ad- vaniago of the Bankruptcy act; but ultimately there will be a grand rush to take the beneiit of its provisions on the part of many thousands who are now struggling against it, partly because of false pride and a fear that their credit will suffer in the future if they resort to this easy method of settling accounts with cheir credit- ors, At the expiration of a year from the date of the act going into operation no bankrupt can, as the law now siands, be relieved of his debts, un- less his assets amount to at least fifty por cent of his liabilities, which clause fa an absurdity which @ongross should repeal at once, A bankrupt law, to answer the purpose for which it 1s designed, should bo encumbered with no restriction of the kind, as only a few of those who present their poiltions in bankruptcy have assets of any such magnitude; for houses or indi- viduals able to pay fifiy per coat on the dollar would have ored# and skill enough, in nine cases out of ten, to keop their business going, or to make private sotue- ments with their creditors, On the Stock Exohange a cheerful feeling provatls, and as most of the principal stock houses and large operators are on the bull side of the market highor prices are expected, especially for railway shares, the large earnings of all the loading lines inspiring con- fidence tn the value of railway property. This afternoon there was a freak movement in Erie bogun, aud t! position to buy on speculation was im the ascendant, Oa such a highly cliqued market as this is thore 1s more Ganger of an excessive than a moderate riso, and the ultimate result of the former would be panic, and if there is to be @ wild speculation, as the bull lenders say, tbia ts what it will lead to, although in the mean- time fortunes may be made by the rise, ‘The money market was quiet and well supplied with fands, although the banks and private londers gone. rally asked seven per cent for loans on mixed collaterals, First class houses were, however, enabled to borrow, as ‘usual of late, all they required at six per cent, and this was the almost invariable rate on government se- curities, The national baaks have now practically made up their quarterly returus, for they stand this evening nearly as they will appear in the latter, dated on Mon- #0 that thore ts longer any ground for appre- bension from this source, The Wosvern exchanges are 1m favor of this city, and there is no important drain of currency southward.
