past, and the sales for the week are only 50 to 60 tons. In all
descriptions of Sumac the sales have been on the most limited
scale. Nothing has been done in Argols or brown Tartar, and of
Cream of Tartar, only a few casks sold, at previous rates. A few
small sales were made in good Persian Berries, but not worthy of
enumeration. Only trifling sales hwie been effected in Madders

importance have been made, and the Importers are storing the
recent arrivals of Cod Oil, rather than press sales in the present
dull state of the market. Pale Rape and Linseed Oils are pretty
steady, but by no means in brisk demand. Oil of Turpentine con-
