ties found buyers at full valuation and in some instances a 

 small advance was paid, whereas a large number of parcels, of 

 which the quality was not satisfactory, could only be sold by 

 making concessions on the price. On the whole the decline on 

 valuations, which in several cases is about 5 per cent., averages 

 at 2 per cent. 



The next large sale by inscription, in which 460 tons will be 

 offered, takes place on August 12. Since the inscription of the 

 8th instant, 91 tons have been sold, among which about 50 tons 

 Haut Congo Lopori, which had been withdrawn at the sale of 

 the 8th. The stock comprises now about 530 tons, including 

 300 tons arrived per steamer Philipptville on July 5.
