z round so fne. that even the II. York bakers find
it absolutely necessary TO mix southern -four with il,
and told indeed, give tho southern n
preference it being stronger, vcliar and ia every
respect except to whitencss, OF better quality
On account Of this difference of color, the NJ York
ers thrk their Flour ought 20 rank above ours, and
the attempt has been mad, by the law alluded to- to
force it up, by reducing Southern Flour that is not
so fair. But the Merchants Gnl Bakers are too
knowing to be led astray from their true interest in
this way. They Jnig, Flour by oil its own intrinsic
qualities, and the brands they have confidence in
The n York Inspectors stamp gives it no addition
al value with them Indeed, we vii. venture u wa
ger, that both the York merchants and those to
whom they send It abroad would give more for Rich
mond Flour. without being inspected in N. York,
than they would with the ~ Y. Inspectors brand on
t-ior 1t is we'll known that nearly all best Flour
shipped directly 10 foreign ports from James River
while that that is unsuitable for S America, &c. is
sent OF coas wise mostly to n. York. The N. Y
brand on Southern -four, is in consequences of the
knowledge of this fact abroad considered evidence
OF its infarorty. and Injuries its sale accordingly.
We hope the n. York Editors generally will draw
the attention of their Legislature this subject and
by convincing them Of the fact, that the law in its
practical operation is an injury to their own State
and the wheat growing States to the South, and has
failed accomplish the object hoped 10 be realized
by it's passage, induce its repeal.
