MELBOURNE MARKETS.
The Melbourne Argus of September 17th reports :- Maiza is now selling at 55.; 600 bags have found buyers at our price. Sugars are moving for trade purposes only. A few hundred bags of greyish Mauritius crystals have been placed at £34 Fine teas are also finding their way into the hands of the trade in moderate lots. A parcel of half-chests and boxes has been placed at up to Is 9d. Currants still command attention, and we hear of the quittance (to arrive) of a shipment of 100 barrels at 5Jd. Tobaccos are moderately active. Sales of hops, Tagmanian, in brewers' parcels are reported at 2s. Kerosine oil is quiet, but the advices just to hand by cable are favorable to the market. Tele|rams have been received dated New York, 9th September, which state that shipments to Melbourne for the month of September will be very moderate, not exceeding 5000 cases.
