TOBACCO NOTES.
Slight Break ID Lugs-several Visitors Ii
Town.

Common smoked Jugs took somewhat
In several of the Richmond warehouses.
This break, It Is thought, is only tempo
rary, and the price will doubtless shortly
regain it's advanced position. Suncured
Tugs are still selling al big prices.
The cause of the drop in smoked luss
is an overstocked market. Only a GER
tain amount OF this quality of tobacco is
used here and when more than is needed
comes in the price falls. This has been
the case for the past week. It is prob
able that by next week the surplus will
be exhausted.
Great efforts are bein,; made by the TO-
bacco wareiouseme of Richmond &c
have moro of the weed planted right
around the city and 10 improve the quail
ity of such as is already grown in tina,
section. The movement, If the farmers
respond, will have the effect Of increas.
ing the receipts here and Of establishing
q finer quality of tobacco in the neigh
boring.
