Hints  TO  SHiPPRns.-Piick  produce  as  firmly  as 
Its  nature  allows;  otherwise  many  Items  suITer  In 
appearance,  If  nut  in  i]ualliy,  tlirouKh  the  Jostling 
Incident  to  transportation.  Bo  not  mark  packagi^s 
with  any  luaterlal  that  will  smudge.  A  good  paint 
for  marking  purposes  can  be  made  of  blcnroiuiiio  of 
potash  and  uxtraet  of  logwood.  Nailed  cards  are 
very  Insecure.  For  long  linea  of  goods  a  marking 
plate  or  brand  Is  preferable  toordinury  Intlnring.  At 
the  time  of  alilpiueni  put  a  crtmplete  list  of  tho  lot 
Into  one  of  the  puckiiges  if  it  can  be  done:  but  be 
sure  to  mall  to  consignee  a  full  list,  naming  date, 
style  of  packages  und  ooiiteuts.  Aim  to  Imvu  uuuh 
parcel  of  uniform  quality  as  far  aa  possible  ;  mixing 
always  injures  sale.  Roll  buttivr  should  be  wriippea 
In  cinan  white  muslin.  Dresseil  poultry  should  be 
packed  in  well  shaken  dry  straw.  When  poultry 
sweats  In  boxes  straw,du«t  gives  a  mean  look,  liri'iik 
off-nall  points  from  the  inside  of  old  barrets  when 
they  are  used  in  order  to  oravent  properly  from  tear¬ 
ing.  Short  cut  dry  straw  Is  better  for  packing  eggs 
than  anyihlng  else.  Try  and  avoid  the  arrival  here 
of  suniiner  Items  on  Balurdar. 
BeanH  and  PKAb.—Rxports  beans  past  week,  1,27:1 
bbis.i  slnoo  Jau.  1.52,560  do.;  same  time  Inst  year,

Medtnms  remain  strong  and  the  fancy  markets  of 
new  are  higher.  Strong  prices  have  turned  some 
attention  to  old  stock,  s<>mo  pmtiy  good  of  which 
are  Included  In  the  receipts.  Marrows  have  ll  better 
export  demand  and  prices  are  somewhat  favoilng 
sellers.  Other  varieties  of  beans.  Iiicliiiliiig  pea,  are

BurrEU.— Stiiu;  butter  hiia  not  moved  as  readily 
as  the  second  fall  month  shouM  show,  and  without 
a  real  decline  prices  have  a  weak  tone.  Ituslimss  for 
all  gradim  of  State  Is  mainly  iit  Gio  Inrpio  range. 
For  the  One  grades  of  Btiite.  dealers  think  Unit  a 
short  period  Of  smidy  business  will  allow  the  marltut 
to  regain  forun-r  extremes.  The  under  are  uut 
spoken  of  so  confidently.  TlieaeLniniulutlon  In  stirre 
and  abuiidunco  yet  to  come,  point  to  easy  (|iiii|.ulloiia

Large  (]iiHULiiles  of  bultcr  In  dairy  lots  uru  here  in 
the  hands  of  owners.  The  delay  which  occurs  to 
sale  when  butter  is  so  offered,  also  tends  to  tem- 
porarlty  depress  the  market.  B(,‘.vr,  Western  has  as 
before  met  with  a  ready  siilc,  connnun  half  tuba  and 
rolls  are  dull.  ISxportcrs  have  added  something  to
