quantitj' in baskets, were readily disposed of. lladislies liave come to hand 

 slowly, in consequence of tlic very cold weather. A few early turnips have 

 been protkiced ; so that tliu market has been supplied w ith them, in greater 

 or less quantity, throughout the \'ear ; as well as with carrots and other arti- 

 cles. Onions have been in demand, and still continue to realise good prices, 

 although the season for their consumption is past. Potatoes have been sup- 

 plied in considerable quantities ; but, in consequence of the general deficiency 

 of other vegetables, have been readily disposed of, at an imjjroved price. 

 Grajjcs are now sujjplied freely ; strawberries also plentifall}' ; some peaches 

 and nectarines, with a few cherries ; but they are not at present in request. 

 Pine-apples, although by no means plentiful, are not nuich enquired after. Of 

 ajiples, we have, as j'et, quite as many as are wanted ; the demand for them 

 being materially affected by the large supply of rhubarb, which, at tliis season, 

 generally supersedes the use of them. Oranges are now very plentiful, and 

 of excellent quality : the prices, throughout the season, have been good, and 

 realised to tlie importers a handsome remuneration. — C. G. j\L Mai/ 23.
