that thought that 20 900 barrels would cover all
in the city including the stock in first hands variousy
estimated at so 900 barrels and the supplies held on
speculation with stocks in the hands of the Hing and
retail trade II must be borne in mind however that to
arrive at exact estimate of the total of stock
is attended with much difficulty and the above statement
may amount to something the mark or fall little
short of it. De this as il may, it is agreed upon all
hands, that the stock very low compared with that Of
last year att the same period, and should the river
remain closed till late in the season. this fact would
ofise be sufficient to stisn prices The stock in Phil

reghts it from those ports to New York cost about
SO cents per barrel from the latter Until the
