informed me fully. I have4been a mer
chant the greater part of my life, and

broadened out into a? firet-clasa mer
chant. Wheat is a first-class cbrnmodi

wheat which he-has parcfc&sfed.is of" ttife
highest, and I am sure will be indeman'd
at a higher price than be paid for it.
I am well pleased wlVhtb!e,BUualioBi''''-J.
