cannot fail To be interesting. IN referring to 80
the receipts of Teas in this country for one m
year up to seth ultImO. II says they will he r..
tccO pounds short Of the imports of tine wear end
ing June 81, 1885, and that
r, The advance IN black teas. Oolorgs, since last
December, has been fifteen cents per pound: and
Young Hyson Teas, Of low and medium grades,
nave experienced an advance of one hundred per
cent. over last seasons closing prices.
- 1t Will thus be seen that the strong ard rapid
advance In the tea market has been the result Of
short supply and active demand; hut when II is CON
sdered that We may hear ut any moment of the en-
TIRE suspension of shipments at Shang hal, anu i'm
TACT, that, as soon as sufficient force from England
arrives at the seat of war. all FIVE ports of entry i'm
China, will probably lie placed under strict blockade
