fine dust; 53 Madras; 52 Kurpah ; 2O Prussian blue,
Previous to the opening, and during the progrisss of the
sales, 592 chests were withdrawn by the propriefrsrs. Although
prices at the July sales were considered 'very moderate, and
more than an average business was transacted between the
sales at fair price.s, chiefly far the the Russian market,
the late period fixed for tb.;.s sale, and the very largo quanitJ put
np, led to a general expectation that the July prices could
not he kept up. Under these unfavourable circumstances the
sal:: began ; but on the first day ord. and mid, qualities, chiefly
adapted for the home trade, sold briskly at last sale's prices,
whilst ;scrod and fine shipping sorts were rather heavy at a dis-
merit of Bd. to 4d. prr lb.; from the second day, however, the
hiddings for these sorts became more animated, and although
proprietors fah ly met the buyers, several marks of consuming
and shipping qualities averaged last sales's prices. The
sales proceeded briskly at those rates until its close. The
most important feature in this sale is the very large propor-
tian has been sold ; it is calculated that 3,500 chests
were taken for shipping, and the same quantity for home uss,
