Review of Burlington Market.
~ L.. 4. a.

Our review OF transactions in all kinds of Mer-
camille and Produce business must necessarily
be short as we have but few transactions to note.
Business among our retailers has been fair in all
branches of trade. The stocks of Dry Goods
that were broken by early sales are replcnished
and dealers are ready for the summer trade
The same may be said of Groceries, Boots, Shoes
and Leather. In Hardware more activity is APP
parent than other branches on account of their
first summer sales of Farming Implements
Crockery always finds ready sales and at figures
that suit both purchaser and seller.
Our city is very healthy for the season. There
fore, drugs find dull sale, except at wholesale.
Our dealers in this line, have had steadily in
-creasing trade since the opening ofnavigation,
which has not fallen in the least since our last re
view. The Produce market has been a little
more active. particularly in Provisions. We
hear of sales daily, to Eastern buyers at re-
munerative figures. Grain of all kinds dull, blu
few buyers and as few sellers. Farmers are busy
planting, at present prices will not leave their
work to bring their articles to market.
We had expected to be able to give
quotations of Wool, but none has been
broush. forward this season. Probably be-
fore our next enough viii have been sold to fix
the price. Prospects for an abundant harvest
arr good Throughout the country. Therefore pri-
ees of graf must necessarily rule low during the
balance of the season.
