WINSTON n G., February 2.-We now
report that during January past this mar.
ket did The largest volume of business
ever done in this market. Receipts Of
leaf on the warehouse floors were eX.
ceedingly heavy and prices held up re.
markably Well on all grades Offerings
consisted chiefly of dark mahogany fill
ers and wrappers, yet We occasionally
had n good sprinkling Of brights
and while we cannot brag very
much on the fine quality OF
the brights, we can safely say
that there never was marketed
better class of dark rich filters or wrap
pers than this crop affords, being smooth
in texture and fine flavor The crop is
certainly being very rapidly marketed.
Shipments of plug by our manufacturers
here were also much heavier than usual.
Sales OF stamps al revenue Office over
100000, showing amount of plug shipped
to be nearly l,l2j,OOO pounds for the
month past, EDMUNDs y GIIMER.

HEyDTRs0N,N C., February Wv ith
q very untavorable week for handling
tobacco our receipts have been good
every day, with an increase in medium
brights But still a limited amount of
fine wrappers and cutters, and 10 il rarely
ever we can find q navy wrapper After
Carolina and Virginia | am satisfied We
suffered less from the frost than any
other tobacco section. and for this reason
our common filters and smokers arc COM
handing better prices than on other
markets. Medium smokers are very ac-
tive, and better grades of dark filters are
selling We'll.
Major Ginter and Mr. Milton Cayce were
prominent visitors on our market this
week ". II. WALKER.

Tho present efficiency OF the best non

greater than az the rate of two and ;
half pounds II coal an hour hors,

about two pounds on coal an hour q

from James Watts engines Of fifty years

It's my opinion that with our present

can Zoe built that viii produce a horf
