ever left England in ballast, has sailed
within the last week, for the Delaware
breakwater and Hampton Roads, for

more profitable to send them without

Large purchases Of grain have been
made in this country by Italy, Austria,
France and Egypt, countries which rare-

been effected at this port to carry grain
