Albany. — Honey. — The demand has been more 

 brisk the past ten days; especially for extracted; 

 and we have closed out about all we had on hand. 

 We think the stock of comb honey is now nearly all 

 on the market, and do not anticipate any decline in 

 prices. We quote: White comb honey, 17(§'18; mix- 

 ed, 15@16; buckwheat, 13(a>14. Extracted, light, 

 9@10; dark, 7@8. Chas. McCulloch & Co.,

 16@18; fair to good, 1-lb. sections, 14@15; fancy white, 

 3-lb. sections, 15@16; fair to good, 3-lb. sections, 

 13@14; fancy buckwheat, 1-lb. sections, 13@13; fancy 

 buckwheat, 3-lb. sections, 13@13; extracted clover 

 and basswood, 9@10; e.vtracted buckwheat, 7@8. The 

 above are about the prices these goods are bringing 

 to-day. Of course, after the holidays, we expect a 

 lull in tlie honey market as usual, and expect no 

 great demand for it for two or thiee weeks after 

 New Years. The market is pretty well cleaned up in 

 1 and 3 lb. sections of fancy clover and 3-lb. sections 

 of buckwheat, as you will see by the prices these 

 goods are bringing. On the whole we think the 

 honey producers have got good iirlces this season.
