Oil—The last sales of cod were at 2a. 3d. per gallon,
but an improved rate is likely soon to be obtained, in
consequence of the greatly diminished stock on hand.
Of lard oil 40 casks have been moved at 4s. 3d. per gallon,
Lard—The receipts since our last were confined to
200 kegs, which were all placed at 9d. per lb. The article
is scarce, and in demand.

phalia may be quoted at 9d. to 10d.
Soap—We have no improvement whatever to notice in
the market for this article. The depressing influences
alluded to in our last exist to an undiminished extent,
in addition to which we find that the home-made article
interferes in a considerable degree with the sale of the
imported descriptions.
