lEYLON. There is no appreciable change to record in the tone of this market, buyers showing 
tie inclination to increase their stocks with the undesirable kinds on offer. For the few Teas 
)ssessing quality and flavour bidding was keen, and good prices were realized. The following 
'erages may be quoted : — " Mooloya," i/ii ; " Bogawantalawa," i/o^. Average for week gd. 
)RRECTioN. — In our last circular the average price obtained for the ''■ Frotoft Teas was incorrectly stated — it should 
have read 1/2-^ per lb., which was the highest record oi the week.
