The first impression produced by tho declaration of this
enormous quantity was decidedly unfavourable; when, how-
ever, it was known that within a few days of the sale. Oc-
tober prices had been offered and refused for several
pareels,the feeling gained ground that if proprietors were firm
a fair proportion would find buyers at about the currency of
October. From the beginning of the sale it was quite evident
that the orders for the home trade and for export were un-
usually small, and although the first masks in the catalogue
were kept up by the proprietors at full prices, and chiefly
bought in, a decline of 2d to Gd per lb was subsequently
submitted to, whenever a desire of realizing was shown ;
this instead of inducing the buyers to conic forward,
appeared to increase their reluctance to bid, and the result
was, that on earls day very extensive withdrawals took
place, large quantities were bought in, leaving only
a small
pro portion (2800 chests) sold, evidently for immediate wants.
