EVENING, SEPT. %. 1881.
Tobacco Market.

IOD1ccO MSFkeC.
There has been nothing peculiarly
striking in the tobacco market during the
past week. Most of the sampled crop of
1880 has been sold at high prices and the
holders of unsampled goods evince NO dis
position to part with their packings.
Nearly all the crop of 1881 has been cut,
and fully one half of it has been sold at
high prices. 1t is cming admirably, good
judges declaring that in color aud odor it
more nearly approaches HavaT ma tobacco
than any former crop. The extreme dry
and hot weather is said to be the cause Of
this improved condition of the leaf.
The following sales are reported.
Jacob Leanhart, of Conoy township, to
Rosenbaum, 81 acres at %, 10 and s.;
John Shank, OF Conoy township, to Frank
Waller, 4 acres at 25 round John Denter-

Our Drumore correspondent writes We
are still selling some tobacco, although
sales were not SO numerous last week as
they have been some weeks previous. Wo
expect somewhat of lull in buyers now
till we have our weed stripped. But VIC
have great deal of good tobacco yet un-
sold and it will strip very nicely and bring
nice prices or not be sold in a hurry.

from Fulton township and wish to regis
ter our thanks to a Fulton friend for his
