Aeu Orleans Zeal estate @arhet

Sunday, February IA. lSo9
The movements in real estate last week indi
Gated that buyers were solicisous for permanent
investments rather than speculation. 1t Is true
that, at private sale there were several unimproved
properties sold at good prices but improved
properties with good or desirable residences upon
them, brought, by far. better prices than have
been obtained since 1867, and at their sale much
greater interest was manifested. J
At the st. Charles Auction Exchange, yester.
day, the attendance was very large; and when the
auctions began the scene was one of the most ami
mated we ever beheld. The bidding for several
choice properties which were sold, was really
spirited, and would have been interesting even to
a casual observer. $3.50 !.
We have to report tho following transactions
for the week ending yesterday:
