been chiefly confined to ope-ations in the fine to finest de-
scriptions of the new Kelso is of which chimes the supply
is most limited ; the medium kinds, comprising the bulk of
the prescnt arrivals, are very difficult of sale, and the few
transactio is reported show a decline on previous quota-
tions. The arrita's from Foo Chow have been large during
the last four days, and, with few exceptions, the samples
to hand confirm the previous opinions of the crop. New
Honing. have met with some tuquiii, their quality having
attracted attention ; but in the absence of any further
arrivals the business has necessarily been limited Scented
teas have been in fair demand, the be.ter classes of caper
meeting with ready buyers. In ()oolongs a moderate
business is reported, desirable parcels commanding full
prices. The public sales for the fortnight comprised 10,800
packages, of which 10,'..100 were sold " without reserve."

at about 60,500,000 lbs., against 81,100,000 lbs., and the
toantity afloat (including the arrivals not yet taken into
stock) at about 48,000,000 lbs., against 44,000,000 lbs. at
the corresponding period last year.
