With an unusually large quantity of unattractive Tea upon the market, quotations naturally 
2came depressed. 
New arrivals from India do not yet show much strength or flavor, and imports from Ceylon 
ill continue poor in cup. Telegraphic advices state that better quality is coming forward from 
eylon, and that an improvement is taking place in som.e of the Indian districts. 
NDIAN. A larger quantity has been brought forward, but there is not much alteration to 
cord as regards general quality. Competition for poor Teas was dull, and the market for these 
jpressed. Better liquoring Teas continue to be sought for. The following averages are worthy of
