there is a very full line Of samples on

DANyIiLE, VA, November 1--WE /
have had this week The largest breaks OF 1
new tobacco of the season. There have 1
been a few scattering lots Of good old |
stock on the bresks Any really desirable
stock Of any character, whether old or
new. has been gobbled up as scon as 1t
made its appearance. Prices are firm on
all desirable tobaccos of good color,
Prices on the lower grades are probably
some little easier. There has been no
feature in the market this week OF special
interest. Orders with the leaf brokers
seem fairly good Our sales for the en-
tire next week will be suspended on ac'
count Of The Tobacco Exposition, except
for the tobsccos offered for premiums.
The sale OF these tobaccos comes OIL on
Friday, 23d, at 10 o'clock am. We hope
70 see many Of our tobacco people with
us on that occasion.
Colonel Thomas Mason OF The Western
Tobacco Journal Of Cincinnati, Ohio, IS
with us this week.
