LOCAL TOBACCO MARKET.

LOUAL TOBACCO MARKET.
Large Quantities Deli7esed-H,sh Prices
The rain and snow aud fog that have
prevailed during the past week rendered
the tobacco moist and soft and exactly
fitted it for handling. Consequently there
was great deal Of it delivered ut the city
warehouses, just how much We cannot saw,
as the farmers do not know aud the dealers
say they do not know. From inquiries
among the bankers it appears that a great
payment for tobacco, but not so much As
was paid out the week preceding.
There was some dissatisfaction on the
part Of dealers with the condition in which
some Of their purchases were delivered,
of the farmers when they were docked for
failing to deliver their goods in &C
cordance with their contract, but OH the
whole both parties were pretty we'll salts
fled. In our interviews with number of
dealers We learn that the tobacco continues
to come in in good condition, the only
complaint being that in good many in
stances the wrappers are not rs long as
some of the crops are very fine, and the
farmers realized immense prices for them.
John J. Long, Of Drumore, delivered to
Dan Mayer ON Monday, the crop
cut from II acres of ground. The
weight was 3,O59 pounds, the price paid
per pound being 80 cents through, the
value of the crop being s91S.SS. Mr.. Long
has sold to Mr.. Mayer, but not yet deliv-

the figures being 20 cents for wrappers, .
for seconds and for filters The weight
of tho crop was $3.50 pounds and the
amount paid for it 1859. Mr.. Harnisi,
says the patch was only an acre aud L half

will send him relible surveyor, he will
