Vircinia Tobacco in london.

The Jure tobacco report of Edward
Samuelson e Co., of London. says:
1--WE report a quiet market for North
American tobacco during the month OF
June. although the many enquiries Tor
various grades Of Western and Virginia
strips. not to be found, might lead 10
the Impression that considerable business
was being transacted. A slow market
at this season comes in the usual course
and there is no special reason why there
should be any exception now. At the
same time IL is worth pointing out as
strange that, with the stock at the large
figure OF 1856 hogsheads. many desirable
grades Of both Western and virginia
strips are entirely absent, and II does
seem incongrous TO speak Of dearth or
any kind Of tobacco at time OF seeming
plenty 1t is too early, OF course, 10 say
ANYTHING about crops at time when
only planting Is being done, but there rs
no doubt that prices ia the eastern and
western markets during the past season
offer every inducement % farmers TO
grow as much tobacco as possible. Az
the same time welearn that In the bright
districts there has not been the large
planting talked OF owing 10 want OF
plants, war scare, &c.
'The large deliveries and small imports
during the month bring down the stocks
to lower figure than at any during the
past eleven months

The cook went into close detail in tell

ing three days the schooner stopped
for water at place where there was
a red lighthouse and also some red
men called Siwashes. The cook told
of repainting the schooner at sea.
Marshal Brown is not up on Indian
