If prices keep up in London, and April butter is sent Home, it would appear, that local prices must be affected. As things stand, London prices are keeping fairly high, and as far as can bo judged at present prices are going to remain firm, (specially if South Africa comes on the market, as there is a prospect of. Sydney and Melbourne prices have both advanced, and it. is probable that this may drive African business here.
