CARDS Spirits Turpcntinc, dealers nave come 10 inc
determination that in their sales now and hereafter
they will charge for the barrels, in other markets,

time.

hcarcd of any transactions below highest quota
ton
PLASTER PARIS.-A small parcel has sold from

PROVISIONS.-The market is without any
ration in regard to prices for good merchantable
descriptions of either picked smoked, but it is
generally conceded that there is better enquiry for
Bacon, and in larger parcels have been
more readily disposed of.
Beef.-Thcrc is a very limited export demand cX-
ccpt for small lots, packed TO order, in small pack
ages, suited for the West Iudia market. The sales
generally for ships sorcs and made at our quot
cd rates
Mess terms not public; but generally the article
dull of sale, and be had think at our lowest
figures.
Bacon.-The qualities are very diversified, but our
remarks and quotations embrace the sound merchant
able only, except when otherwise expressed. 1t Is
thought there has been improved demand during
the week, as larger parcels than usual nave been
sold, although in instances the quality was in
fcror w conine remarks solely to Western,
and note the sales of some 50 to 60 casks Shoulders,
in lots at 7a7 cts per h., and loose parcels OF 1000
to 5000 lbs. at the attcr some 5Oa6O, 900 lbs loose

SPIRITS.-N. f. Rum, with moderate demand,
is steady at 30a3l cts, the principal transactions at
the former. Whiskcy has advanced, and with
good demand commands 26a27 cts. per gallon, in hhds
and brls.
SUGARS.-The private transactions have been
moderate; but, shown below, a better feeling is
manifest and prices remain about for some time
past. BY auction on Tuesday, two cargocs dis
posed OF, of which comprised 2O5 hhds. Porto Rico,
which went off at 6.lOa I, and l52 brs. at 5000
5000; and the other, 2i0 hhds Cuba Muscovado, at
ga Cos, and u tres. at 6.lOa$615 per 100 lbs,
mos.
TOBACCO.-This market has undergone change
since our last publication except that for the inferior
qualities of both Maryland and Ohio it is considered
TO be somewat heavier. The accounts by the last
steamers, from the German and Dutch markets, hold
out encouragement to shippers on this side and re-
mark that not the slightest Improvement in prices
have taken place, while in England there is better
demand noted for Kentucky Leaf, and rather better
prices have been obtained. We would remark that
in regard to this market Ohio rcd continues in fair
request and all the parcels of good common to fine sell
readily at TO s per 100 lbs. but for spanglcd and
colory the demand quite limited and previous rates
are not so easily obtained. We would again remark
as we did last week, that the coming crops Of Mary
land and Ohio will be small. The receipts Of Ohio
have been comparatively large this week, are
shown by the inspections which ioow-comprlsing
of Maryland 1925 hhds. Ohio l046, and Kentucky .
