OYSTERS PLENTIFUL NOW.
Supply Augmented by the Arriva
of Five Loaded Vessels.

The supply of oysters at the 18th
street wharf market, which was very
short the latter part of last week,
was augmented yesterday by the ar
rival of five oyster-laden vessels with
cargoes amounting to more than 1000
bushels. Two of the vessels sailed in
and the other three were towed here
from the mouth of the river.
The master of the tug that towed
the vessels here says they were the
only loaded boats he could find in an
extended cruise into oysterboat har-
bors, and the prospect of their being
any other arrivals within the next day
or two is very slim.
The demand for the bivalves is good
and this morning they were selling at
from so to 80 cents a bushel. With
every prospect of heavy ice making
is probable that oysters will be higher
in price in the latter part of this week
than they are now. Runboat masters
