No feature of any special note ¢an be mentioned with reference to the markets this week. At the ductions a better feeling has been evident in regard to piece goods, but any ineredse in business which say have taken place is small.

Yarn has been in greater favour daring the period under review, and the sales have been generally better than in recent weeks. Mills, however, show no tendency yet to resume purchases of raw cotton on any large scale.

The second work of the tea sea-shows only a small acti the market, but there hi better position in local though the Easton variety is dull. Little interest has been evinced in produce.
