There has been very little change in prices since last week; a slight fall in flour is noticed, and a rise in resin. It is remarkable that the lowest and highest priced resins come from the same stock. Some new discovery, whereby the dark-colored resin could be converted into white resin, would be of incalculable importance, and would be a vast fortune to the inventor.
The quality of Bengal indigo lately introduced into market is said to be very superior; it was difficult to obtain the best qualities a few years ago. Most of the indigo which comes to our country arrives at Boston; the stock on hand at present is sufficient to maintain stationary prices for some time.
