A Little Misquotation.

In an interview with Mr.. VIM. Leighton
in Monday mornings REGISTER, that gen.
tlemsn WAS inadvertently quoted as say
ing that the cost of fuel gas in the Wheel
ing factories had heretofore been nearly as
much per annum as the profits realized.
Mr.. Lsighton's statement was that the av-
erage aggregate pro fits of the factories in
this valley on standard ware were not a
great deal mere than the cost of their fuel
gas. This statement, of course, did not
include special or fancy wares, on
which the profits have always
been large, and as the factories
here have a wide spread reputation for
this line, great amount is mahufac-
tured, the demand for which has always
been equal to the supply. The manufac-
ture OF standard ware only represents a
part Of the glass table ware industry in
this vicinity, and the fancy wares made
here cannot be excelled in quality, finish
and cheapness by any factories in the
country. The firm of Hobbs, Brockunier
& Co, who manufactured fancy ware ex-
tensively, will be succeeded by the new
Hobbs glass company in the same line,
and there is no doubt that the new firm
will secure as large trade in this line, rs
well SIS all others made by them, as their
predecessors enjoyed.

RICHMOND, VA, June Z
The leading feature In our to-day
market was the good buying OF good to
fine bright wrappers. The demand
seemed better with several order buyers
and one or more spectators or shippers
on the market. The range of prices was
from 90 to Az cents. In other grades
the market was more quiet than yester-
dag on Change. We learn that about
800 hogsheads of fine Austrian leaf has
been sold here and in Petersburg, all on
private terms; but it is safe TO say that
prices range from l2to AZ cents for these
fine shipping grades. Ii will take about
these figures 10 make winter purchases

nothing OF boom in our market, but a
steady, good, and active market is far
