Nrw York, July 10. U. fi. Dun A weekly review of. trade will say The conservative feeling which prevails in all sections and branches of businesa impresses many is a most disheartening symptom, but it uitv with at least usual reason be interpreted as the very best ground for confldence in a healthy anil solid improvement when the new and larps crops come forward more ireeiy.

,1 lie absence sim ulative exer-lion and indisposition to buy in haste are having a iiist holesome iulluence. The priivs of material and products are thus kfpt in such relation that a liire and fairly profitable business is possible.but: will it be based, when it comes, upou the actual demands of rconsumers, not upon inflated This conservative attitude is more necessary this year because, while money is now aliuudant here and cheap on call, the possibility of disturbance abroad or of dllliculty in ol. taming neetlel supplies for. crops at the west is not all removed. Tbe.

crop n-Hrts have never lieen more full than they are this year, and they grow more clearly satisfactory. As to spring wheat it is every improving, aUo as to other grain and cotton. Wheat declined 2 cnts during the past wevk.rjot-withstaiidiiig the exjMirU were fully as large as a year ago. but the imtneliate demand for corn has caused a rise of 1 cents, and oats are quoted higher.

At Chicago wheat receipts are three times larger than last year's, and there is an increase in Hour and corn, and trade in dry goods, clothing aud shoes exceeds last year's with good collections.

Keceipts of other train, cured meats, dressed beef and lard fall behind last vear. and i ron reoorts are verv lav oralile, all indications pointing to i iarge trade in tlie future. At St. lxttiis trailo in grain produce anil live stock is good nut itimier ami buil'ling trades are dull. The otitbsik for the fall trade is very encouraging.
