for good current quality. Seal oil is in steady demand
at our quotations' and coloured descriptions compara-
tively dear. Cod oil supports its late value. Southern
is held for 401 to 421 Forced sales of cocoa nut to some
extent have been made at 49s for Ceylon, and 50s, for
Cochin, but-the market has since somewhat recovered, and
fine Cochin in hogsheads is held for 5s ; pipes about is
under this price. Palm quiet here, but a good deal clone
at Liverpool. Olive has obtained a steady sale at our
quotations.
TALLOW.—The weather has been against con-
sumption, and restricted the demand, which with an
occasional parcel forcing on the market, as is usual
at the close of the mouth,• has caused a decline of is
per cwt, 56s having been accepted on the spot, 55s 9tl for
September, and 668 6d to 67s for the last three months.
Yesterday the market rallied, and half the fall was re-
covered, with a good deal done. Prospects are favourable
for the production of houie make, but the St. Petersburg
advices this week report that the extreme heat of the
weather was greatly increasing the difficulties of getting
the tallow overland.
