From New York Tobacco Leaf

Y1go.m Leaf-A factor said to us
" We have sold a few hogsheads Of
bright cutters this week. There is very
little demand for dark Virginia leaf
Our Virginia friends are perfectly
familiar with what our market requires
in bright lines, and if they would send
only such goods as are wanted here they
could be readily sold There are good
stocks here 10 select from"
Another factor observed Not as
much doing as during last week in Nir-
ginia tobacco Some few cutters and
smokers were sold. but at low prices. Some
very good dark wrappers are coming in
now at prices running from II 10 ii
cents. They are more unifor than the
same grade of Western leaf at the same
price, and certainly make better look
ing plug
Domestic Cigey Ley-The market this
week has been very quiet, and very little
tobacco was sold. II is entirely different
in the tobacco-raising sections, where
great activity is being displayed In
Pennsylvania the most is being done,
and the seed-leaf tobacco is almost en-
lirely bought and in the hands OF pack
ers. What remains is held at higher
figures. The Havana seed is held at
such figures that nothing is being done
in that variety. Wisconsin has been
purchased to a great extent. In fact all
the sections have sold some goods.
HaeanG-The market has shown a lit
tie more life this week. Sales about $50
bales al &c. to Sf.io.
.Sumatrd-Business very quiet The
weeks sales Will no; exceed 200 bales, al
Sl25 to $3.50.
Plug-We hear no complaints OF any
one being hurried in filing orders for
plug tobacco. Business has been very
moderate, and altogether there has been
an advance by some manufacturers on
low grades Of navy of from TO cents
per pound, ii has not caused any excite
ment For one or two brands OF special
~ fine goods there has been a good de
mand. The exports for the week were
202 ,ll5 pounds.
ismoking-Demand steady and fully mp
TO the usual weekly volume.
Ctgars-No change in the situation re-
ported, which is equivalent to saying that
trade is fairly busy.
