'K. Webb, who returned last night ,
from Metter, (Ja., where he conduct
an auction warehouse fir the sale ,
of leaf tobacco for nine weeks, re-1
ports that the Georgia crop of the
! weed was ilecitletlly inf 'rior; that 1 ,
; while prices were seemingly low,
I the quality of the leaf sold was

jail that it was worth. IJauantities t«f j

| The same is true regarding prices |
and the weed in eastern North l aro

; Webb staled that judging from re- 1
Doits coining from well posted to-!
i baeco men, this year's i ron was about
it lie worst that has been grown iti
I the South in many years. The

to be very poor.
