Observations. — The supply of vegetables has hitherto been very regular, 

 and very little fluctuation in price has taken place. Our supply of English 

 fruit has been unprecedentedly small, but from the very great importation of 

 foreign fruits, the prices have remained steady and moderate. But few Ame- 

 rican apples have come to hand, and those in bad condition, consequently 

 the prices may be considered nominal. Oranges, nuts, and chestnuts in 

 their usual abundance. — G. C. Jan. 17. 1829.
