| hand.to-mouth policy in view Of the ample sup

| for choice, while buyers offer only 1GSc. The
general condition of this seasons crop is said Il
! be inferior to last, owing to over-ripeness anG
| imperfect handling in curing. The want of la.

| stances are reported of picking being abandoned
| in some yards from this cause.

FRUlT-Oranges are less plentiful, but still re-
ceipts are enough to meet all wants. The low
rates tina have ruled for some time have given
opportunity for enlarged custom, which has been
generally awaited of, and the consumptivc de-
mand is less pressing at the moment Some few
boxes OF RaspberrieS have made their appear

Wo0I-No trade in spring wool yet. Some
new stock reaches market daily, but so far none
has been placed. Shesring throughout the State
is not general, as wool men fear that it may
commence raining soon. IT, however, there is
no heavy downpour soon, the shearipg will go
ahead rapidly. A large quantity of wool may
be looked for by the middle of next mouth. The
outlook for prices in the opinion of prominent
dealers, is anything but satisfactory, and it is
not believed that last springs rates will be
maintained, even ii reached.
