qote low ordinary at Ga lie: ordinary at
llls a 1874; good ordinary at l5a l5lsc: low
| middling ut lo4 l63lc; middling at la
EAc, and strict middling at LIZ l7a4c.
1t was stated that low middling could be
bought ut l6c. but no sales were reported at

| l634c; this, however, we regard as an ex-
| IRENE rate. and perhaps the market would

A strong style of middling sold at 17Ac
The impracticability of passing francs, I'M
less at figures very much below the parity
of gold, and the difficulty of negotiating
even AL sterling, together with the decline
in gold, was calculated to still further
weaken prices, and in some cases. no doubt.
had that effect. Under these circumstances.

tent as nominal.
