TALLOW.

(From the Circular of Meirr-;7(,`ni;erwell, Brooks, and Co.,
dated Friday evening.)
The operations in the tallow market daring the past week
have again been limited almost entirely to the very mode-
rate purchmas made by consumers, and thesupply of • sorts"
is stall more than adequate to these demands ; and as the
holders of these " sorts" continue to meet buyers on very
liberal terms. let sort St. Petersham Y.C. tallow, so long
regarded as the leading article io the market, is Dow vary
quietly moored by persons having real business to transact,

the monopolists, an event scarcely to be regarded as •
remote contingency ; hot cue, we venture toassert, which the
trade in general, and all wbo desire the re-establishment of
• legitimate business, would hail with more satisfaction
than mistrust, as seeing therein the prospect of an insportent
breath of industry being restored to a healthy coaditicia.
