TEA MARKET.

The Tea Market exhibits a very healthy appearance,
though the demand was not active ; the prices wore sup-
p,,rted with great firmness, and it is presumed as the time
draws near for the arrival of the next despatches from
India, the Tea Market will become somewhat excited,
there being at the present time a disposition on the part
of speculators to operate.
TALLOW MARKET.

Prices were firm, but the trade evinced little desire to
purchase beyond their actual wants, in anticipation of a re-
duction ere long. The stock is very large, and the con-
sumption much smaller than in former years, which may
be attributed solely :to the extray.gant prices that hate
existed throughout the year. P. Y.C. on the spot was
reported for 525. 3.1.
WHITECHAPEL HAY MARKET.
The Fupply at market was but moderate, the demand
middling. Clover 4/. to 61. ; Meadow Hay 3/. to 5/ ;
Straw 1/. 133. to 1/. 16s.
