Outward freights to India and China are firmer,
and an improving demand for tonnage is giving
the rates an upward tendency, particularly for
salt to Calcutta,. 43s 6d having been paid for two
ships with consignment., Homewards the busi-
ness is quite nominal,, and our quotations cannot
be exceeded. West Indian and Brazilian freights-
are exhausted, and vessels can now only be placed
at very low rates. Mediterranean. and
trades are unaltered and inactive. Freights to
U. S. ports are without quotable change from last

circumstances. Consols are, moreover, permanently
restrained froni any improvement of•importance by the
completion of the new Indian loan and other securities
