BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.

For the time of year largo supplies of old potatoes are
on sale. Good and Prime qualities are in fair demand, and
prices rule firm, but inferior samples are a dull inquiry.
The quotations range from 60s. to 120 s. per ton. Now po-
tatoes aro in moderate supply, and the demand for them
rules steady. Jersey descriptions are selling at 6s to 10s,
and foreign at 6s to 8s per cwt. Last week's imports were
210 baskets from Boulogne, 457 boxes from Marseilles,
117 baskets from Dunkirk, 45 baskets from Caen, 3,280
from Rotterdam, 123 boxes from Lisbon, and 49 tons from
Jersey.

tralia, 13,701 New Zealand, 2,439 Swan River, and 21,985
from the Cape of Good Hope. At the opening sales, prices
—owing to the large quantity of produce in the market—
declined from id to lid per lb ; but the reductions in the
Bank rate of discount, and the Cape operations of French
and Belgian buyers, caused more firmness subsequently to
prevail, whilst an almost general improvement took place
in the quotations. During the last ten days of the sales,
all good and fine wools sold at the full prices current at
the close of sales, and faulty wools, as compared with
the same period, at a reduction in value of id to ld per lb.
The transactions of Continental buyers were large, nearly
one-half of the quantity of wool offered having been taken
by French and Belgian houses. The following prices were
realised during the progress of the sales :—Australia—

Signor Andreoli has long been one of our be°

pianists, and Signor Pezze possesses marvell°
skill in dealing with the somewhat unwieldly ,„
loncello, so that the announcement of their j°ills
concert, given at the Marchioness of Downshirev
house in Belgrave-square, was sufficient to dril'e
together a very select and brilliant audience. la,
performances, which were not too long, were 3'
mirably given, the chief success being, perbaP°'by
