INntoo.—"l'he season of 1323.3 may now be considered as at an
end ; the crop does not appear to have come up to ihe average of
the four preceding years, and of this there is an unusual proportion
very inferior. The shipments to the L'ith instant amount to
72.408 maunda, short weight, and wasteage about 3,150 mattuds.
from a crop of 78.818 mattnds, leaves a balance in the market of
2.952 maunds, which almost entirely consists of ordinary and in-
ferior qualities. It is too early to venture an opinion on the crop
yet in rregress of manufacture, but it is probable that it may nearly
reach 9.;,631„ which is the average of the last four years.
For Europe piece pads the market continues flat, but no dif-
ference in pews is noticrd.
Iron in active demand at our last qnotations : Tutenague and
Spelter rather on the decline. Block Tin and Lead advancing.
