Tracfe continues dull, as may be expected at the latter portion of what is generally considered the dullest month of the year, and prices of all imported goods remain unchanged from our last quotations.

In teas there is little doing beyond ordinary trade requirements. Brandies are unaltered in value. Adelaide flour has been quitted at £l4 10s. to £14155. per ton; stocks, owing to the arrival of the Lady Franklin, being ample. Generally, there is little or no change to report.
