TEA.—The demand for freo trade Tea for actual con-
sumption continues on the increase, several of the principal
dealers being anxious to get into stock at existing rates,
and the merchants on the other hand ace less desirous to
realize, and bring only small cpiantities to public sale;
by private contract since last Tuesday there has been a
large demand for Congou for cash, and an advance of Icl
per lb. has been given on the rates of the last public
sales; common quality selling freely at 23 Old to
23 141, Green Tea was in good request, and
prices improved id to Id; common Twankay for money
realizing 2s to 2s 041, and ordinary Hyson 2s 41 to 2s
4id per Ib, and at these rates there were few sellers at the
close of the market on Saturday. In the speculative mar-
ket there was more activity towards the close of the past
week, and Company's Congou on Saturday advanced to
2s !id cash. The Laura has sailed from Singapore with
a cargo of Tea.
Yesterday there was an increased desire shown on the
part of the trade to purchase Tea at the monthly sale, and
at which they mustered in large numbers; the demand for all
sorts of Black was brisk throughout the day, and nearly all
offered was disposed of for actual consumption, the prices
paid were 2,1 to 24d above those of the sales which finished on •
Tuesday last ; 0-leen Tea sold well, fine descriptions at a
considerable advance on previous rates, common sorts went
Id and 14d higher than last week. The quantity oared
amounted to 7.662 packages, or 575,3941b5, principally
Congou, 5,800 packages of which were actually disposed
of with much spirit, and chiefly to the large dealers.
For Company's Congou the speculative demand has
much increased, and prices have advanced to 2s 2Ad to
23 31 cash, at which large contracts have been made, not-
withstanding the reduced stock of this kind of Tea in the
warehouses. Fur public sale to-morrow 4,200 packages
are declared.
To-day there was a good deal of business transacted in
Free Trade Tea for cash, and prices hare still an upward
tendency : Common Congou has been disposed of to some
extent at 23 2,41 to 23 Si, and ordinary Twankay at 23 lid
to 23 21. per lb. In the speculative market there was less
stir; buyers would not give more than 23 2d for Company's
Congou for cash, whilst sellers wonted 2s 2ii to 2s 3d.
On Change the price was 2s 2id money, but few buyers
thereat.
