LOCAL COMMERCIAL.
FRIDAY. OCTOBER %, 1870
This has been a somewhat lively week in the way Of arrivals
and departures, the Bonga BOHgG having arrived iron sydhes
and Auckland on Sunday, also the BysGHtiHHH, from victoria
with salmon. lime AMI 4 general cargo, and the jane d. FAX
u-- - --s.h Hmbar ID the 9th the BRUSH
bark Anna came in from the FIs. and the American sehoonel
Urania from Tahiti On the Goth the American bark hetsA
~. AIny arrived from Portland On the 18th the American
shfp RsTuara arrived from san Francisco. and the Hawaiian
schooner Amir from Butaritari and today the F0TesthHH9
arrived from Puget sound We have also the Hawaiian
schooner Nm n. Allen, from q cruise, and the first two
whaIeshfpa from the Arctic, the reports BY which VIII De"uno
below
The Moses Taylor, for san Francisco, and the H0HgG
Yoaga. for Auckland and Sydney, sailed on Tuesday afternoon
with fun eargoes and passenger lists The former brought a
large cargo. some disappointment was caused by the H0Hya
Honga refusing bag sugars, as the sweating causes the bags 70
be stained, and claims are made On the vessel, As damage by
coal dust. The allowing quotation, however. from a Mel
bourne letter dated 26Ih September, shows hat the bags VIII
look sbhek" after going through the Tropics, when no coal
dust is near:
aTbe uaraaret Croekard arrived at this port on the 2d
inst the sugars were offered at auction and all sold ON the 10th
current. The sale attracted a large attendance Of the trade,
buyers being very spirited in their Buildings tor some oil te
Inns and notably for the nue yellow sorts Contrary 70 eN-
peetation. the trade showed more preference for the cask paek-
ages IAA AI nc r44AH kA ~
ingiy higher price for the Omer, and estimated al from El !"
So. per tom The bags We may remark do not show 10 aiVah-
tage, az sweating Ia the hold gives them a dark and IN some
instances almost a black appearance In Mauritius they put
q rush mat on the canvas bag"
Ia Il evident We want some Improvement in cheap packages
Why not use boxes a. in Hayaua7 Lumber is cheap enough,
and We have here some powerful Woodworking machinery.
Boxes stow better than kegs, and perhaps as well as bags, and
the freight should be less on them.
We note a large lot Of salmon shipped and t~ranshiPPed by
the Honqa HOHgg, which should help TO relieve the present
Oyerstocked state Of this market for this article. This is a ne"
line Of business opened up by these Australian steamers
Our market keeps overstocked with most dry goods, but the
good whaling reports and a prospect of a little monument in
merchant shipping should help Us this season. The Anna is
advertised for Levuka, FUis, Sydney and Melbourne, the X. ".
Wood for Auckland, Wellington and Sydney: The UraniG
goes TO Tahiti. The Comet sails on Tuesday for San Fran
cisco. The VIetOT sailed yesterday for Victoria, b. c. with
n little sugar and mOIasses- The ByzGnfium may be laid on
for that port
