THE BUTTER MARKET.
(Per Press Association.) Auckland, September 18.

This will bo the first shipment of new season’s butter.

The first shipment last season totalled only 2583 boxes (1291 cwt). A regular supply of butter is now coming in fast, and with the amount held over after Friday’s shipment, a very large quantity will be available for the next exportation. This will bo sent by the Corinthic, which is to sail from Wellingtqn on October 3rd, and in order to connect with the steamer butter will be shipped coastwise at Auckland on September'2Bthc
