One of our leading tobacco dealers in
Eaton gives us a statement OF the total
purchases for last year by all the deal
ers, at $500 cases and about SO hogs
heads. At $50 per case and 800 per
h~ogshead, it would amount to the sum of
Si00, 600 for the crop of 1891 The crop
Of 1885 is estimated by our dealers to be
fully % per more than the crop of
1884, and the quality better. The de-
.and and prices are better than last
so that about $50, 900 will be paid
this year by our tobacco merchants.

srs. Plenty of good and competent men
have said they would accept tss, position
