The Talmages as Rice Spectators

a game of battledore and shuttlecock is
lust now being played with the name of
Talmage. 1t is claimed that they are try
ing to bull" the domestic rice by ''slow
purchases" SO as to market large stock of
Japan rice which has been lying on hand
since midsummer. On the other hand,
letters from the south note that planters
and factors are sore because Talmage is
playing out commission Japan in such q
way as to superinduce a downfall of do
nestle, and when such is achieved they will
secure their fill OF latter and up will go the
market" Having heard two sides, tue

means We are largely on the commission
line, yet when we find that plant
ers ard factors, through ignorance
or necessity, are parting with
their goods at very much less than they
are worth, we step TO the fore as buyers.

The fact that the market has advanced a

some effect against the market. The Vermont
