C/TV MARKETS. 

 New York. — New-crop comb honey is arriving free- 

 ly, our receipts for the week amounting to nearly 5000 

 crates Quality is fine, and better than last season. 

 Demand is good at following prices : Fancy white, 14; 

 No. 1, 12; amber, 11, and dark and buckwheat, 9@,10. 

 Some strictly fancy white, glassed sections, would 

 probably sell at 15c lb. Extracted in good demand. 

 Market rather bare, and we solicit shipments of any 

 kind extracted. We quote white clover and basswood 

 at (i(a(i'i; amber, 5'2; Southern, in barrels, 52(a'(i0 per
