The New York Tobacco Market.

The New York Tobacco Leaf of the
10th INST says:
Transactions fOreshadowed in our
last issue have TRANSFERRED, and we note
sales reported since the first of the
month of 1000 hogsheads low grade
tobacco for export.
The inquiry for specialties may be
reported as active, and it would be
more SO if the stocks afforded larger
lines of Tugs.
The present course of the Western
markets is as we predicted. They
show lower tendency on all grades,
except heavy Tugs. The great strain,
the supreme test, has yet to be realized.
IL is possible it will be followed by II
lower range of values all along the line.
The reported sales for the week
amount toabout 450 hogsneads, where
of 400 were for export; Spain buying
800 at one house, and perhaps as many
more at another, which latter are not
here counted, and shipping in one
vessel 600 previously bought.
The market is firm, but holders are
willing to do the best that can be done
to meet the views of buyers.
Inc pOcltlOn OI low BFdueS seSIlS
still strong, owing to the wants of the
Regies, which take them as well us the
higher grades.
The "missing link" in the chain of
trade, namely, the $4,000 hogsheads
called for by Spain for adjudication
about the 18th OF December last has
not, we can positively say, been found
yet Tradesmen, rumor says, would
like to know what has become of it.
So far as known, the contract therefor
to stop figures of speech-haS not
been awarded. If prices are satisfac-
tory, the name OF the successful bid
der will be published ON or about
June 18th ensuing.
In line six, under the head "West-
ern Leaf" our comments last week
should have read-"the immediate eff
feet of the non-award of the Italian
contract" etc., instead of "new award"
which latter made nonsense of what
was intended to be sensible.

An Illinois editor is reported as not
having tasted food or drink in eleven
days and he declares he win not until
he has tasted forty days as manifest
OF his obedience to the Lord. He is
not the first fasting editor we have
heard OF, nor the first pious one. Such
editors are common-that is to say
they are numerous, but usually it is
not religion that prompts them to fast.
They have a better reason, which is not
necessary to mention here. The i'm
probable part OF the story of the Illi-
nois editor is that despite all entreaties
he refuses to drink anything. That
part of the report is probably feeble
