LEAF TOBACCO.

Our market is quiet but active under very
heavy receipts and offerings, nearly all Of which
is very inferior in quality. Our Oldest buyers
assure us they have never seen a crop SO poor in
quality as that portion Of the crop which has
reached this market. 1t is generally believed
here that our planters are holding back all their
best grades for spring order and pricing, and
only sending forward now their lowest grades.
When the quality of the tobacco now being
offered is conside. ed, we do not think there is
any cause for c. m laint as to the prices paid on
the part Of the planters.
We renew our quotations Of last week, which
was fully sustained by the prices paid to-day:
