CLARKsvILLE, Tenn, May Our
market has been more active this week,
being stronger for all grades. Lugs
were &c. higher, and leaf irregularly / to
sc. higher. The sales for the week end
inc to-day were Oh hogsheads. The
quality Of the breaks was much higher
than for the past few weeks, and the
order shows general improvement,
though a full percentage Of soft and
damaged tobaccos still appear. Large
breaks, in accordance with full re-
ceipts, would probably give ease
in prices, if the weather
goes favorable for the planting, the time
for which is near at hand, bat latterly
the weather has been cool and dry,
which is not favorable for the plant-beds,
which creates a disposition TO hold back
from selling. and encourages also some
local speculation. The crop will press
forward fully on the market in June.
