Salmon.


The London Grocer, Of late date,
says:
Preserved salmon is being dealt in
to fair extent, rather more reason.
able terms have been acceded to foI
Columbia river fish, and PAS Cd TO Dos
I'd per case are now the nearest
prices. Fraser river salmon, which is
more liked because il is of better
quality than usual and comparatively
cheap, sells steadily at DDS Cd to 23s,
and it will not be until the value oi
the two different sorts more nearly
assimilate that Columbia river salmon
will meet with the increased attention
that it deserves. The Bodrkydddn,
which arrived from Victoria as noticed
in our last report, and MAS believed to
be the last of the 1882 pack, waI
quickly followed by the arrival Of
the Grace Gibson on June 10Th, with
further importation of 22,314 cases
from the same place, and unless other
consignments are on the way, oi
which no intimation has been given,
this vessel, which did not leave
British Columbia till a month aftel
the Bodrkyddan, must be the very lsst
cargo OF the season now drawing to I
close.
The Grocer's Liverpool correspondent
writes:
At present a dead calm seems Il
pervade the market, and salmon ap
pears to be no exception to the rule
There are neither anxious buyers mol
sellers IN the market. Prices are suf
ficiently low to tempt anyone who Il
in a position to buy, yet not low
enough to induce spectators to steI
in. The demand in the country i
fair, but not by any means brisk
should, however, the demand usually
experienced at this time of the yeal
spring up, We may look for stife
prices, especially for good brands o
Columbia river, of which there is N
excessive quantity 10 draw upon
From another source we learn that tn
demand for salmon is moderated,
good, but at prices slightly below las
weeks rates, and it is evident tha
some holders desire to realize no'
rather than wait for any prospectiv
improvement. The result of holding
stock for many months back is not b,
any means satisfactory, as the accum
ulated charges for interest and rem
have added to first cost without an
! advance resulting in prices. w
