FLOUR. To the Editor of the Evening- Star.
Sib, —The Auckland tradesmen seem to have a happy knack of making war, or anything else handy, a reason to raise the price of the goods they sell. Now, how on earth can the war between France and Prussia affect the flour market, here, so that the price of flour should be raised immediately after the publishing of the late European telegrams. Do our breadsluffs come from Europe or America ? Do please solve this enigma, and you will ever oblige—Yours, &0., Sam Slick.
