THE LUMBER TRADE. There has been a fairly active demand for all kinds of lumber, and on some kind.s tho movement has shown a considerable increase. Tlio prospects of the trade aro very encouraging, and a good fall trade is anticipated in all branches. The trade were soniewhat surprised iiy the announcement on Tuesday by the railroads of their intention herealterto make a libtiial charge on all lumber left in the cars on their tracks after two days. It Nvill either have lo be reforwarded taken from the cars.

Uealers liere think that days is too short an allowance, and are talking of appectling to the railroad commissioners on the matter. The Old Colony rail- mad allows live liays, and has not the other railroads in tiie move. This is thought lobeaniDle time, and meets the apTU'ovai dealers, with several cars in on a day it will readily bo seen how inconvenient and well-nigh it would bo to meet tiie desires of the railroads in this matter of two days. The demand lor Southern lumber continues fair, and prices remain firm and are sustxiined at the prices Quoted last week. The reports GENERAL A AUG.
