and ended on the 11 th . The sale opened with the Com-
pany's goods, 3,060 chests, consisting chiefly of broken
and limy indigo, which sold from last sale's prices to 2d.
per lb. lower, while those of a finer quality and more per-
fect description fetched fully last sale's prices. The pri-
vate trade followed, which being well supported by the
proprietors, sold readily at lastode's prices ; and for mid.
shipping qualities in good shape, and low consumers, full
3d. per lb. higher than in the last July sale. Madras, of
which the quantity was extremely limited, there being
only 137 chests in the sale, sold from last sale's prices to
3d. per lb. above. The quantity bought in is very trifling.

fine shipping Bengal, last sale's prices to 2d. higher ; good

prices to 3d. higher ; good and fine consumers, last sale's
prices to 2d. lower ; mid. and ord. ditto, last sale's prices
to 3d. higher ; Madras, last sale's pi ices to 3d. higher.

the manner in which the sale has been appropriated, viz :
About 3,700 chests for export, of which about 2,500 for
Germany, and 500 for the French market ; 600 for home
consumption ; 250 for speculative account ; 250 retained
by the proprietors.
