RABBITSKIN MARKET REPORT.

Messrs Remshahdt, M'Donald, and Co, manufacturers' agents, Bond street, report as follows : —

A large business is being transacted. Our shipments per s.s. Tainui and Kuapehu have been 193 bales, all of which have left our Btores during the last fortnight. In reply to several inquiries we take this opportunity of informing rabbiters generally that the prqper wa.y io stretoh skins is to have the tail on the wire, as by this means the fur is protected from any grease that may be on the pelt. It {is much better to send skins in loose, we would therefore suggest not to tie in bundles, but place the skins straight in the bales or bags, the utmost care should be paid to proper fatting, for a well got up article will always command a good price, no matter where you send it. We notice amongst several of our consignments that damaged skins are mixed throughout good winters, it is a pity that they are not kept separate, as it materially affects the value of the lot. our transactions during the past fortnight have been:— OTEMATATA. 15 bales, 20id; 1 do, 1 > I ; WCD, 1 bale, aid ; WHD, 10 bags, 21d ; N, 19 bago, ljijd ; GB, 1 bag, 21d ; JYD, 2 bags, 21£ d ; O, 2 bags, 18d ; VI, 4 bags, 15d ; LN, 1 bag, 16a ; AF, 2 bags, 17d ; 1 do, lod ; 1 do, lOd ; JW, 2 bags, 18d ; 1 do, 12d ; 1 do, lOd ; RR, 4 bags, i9d ; HR (conjoined), 2 bags, 19d ; 1 do, 12d ; 2 do, 7d ; JB, 2 bags, 18d ; WO over M, 1 bag, 19d j 1 do, lOd; Triangle, 1 bag, 18d; CO, 2 bags. 18d ; 1 do, 13d ; McKT, 1 bag, 21 d; 4 do, 17d; 2 do, 9d ; 1 do, lOd ; JLD, 2 bags, 20d ; 1 do, 12d ; HH, 4 bags, 20d j AC, 1 bag, 20d ; 1 do, 16d ; ET, 1 bag, 18d ; 1 do, 10d{ AX, 1 bag, 15d ; SSW, 1 bag, 18d ; TR. 1 bag, 184 : TO, 4 bags, lSdj WHM, 1 bag, 19d ; HW.
