A New York Sun excerpt explains how traders bend the rule against retail work by selling fractions of a dozen items. It recounts schemes like one quarter dozen cravats and one sixth of a dozen gloves to obtain wholesale prices, citing a hat purchase at 2.27 instead of 3.50. Also notes Siam fish fighting as a popular show.
