Since the date of our last, business has Leen somewhat
affected by disturbances in some of the country districts, '
arising from a now I.lw s7l »Pi+testi= which fair° Int°
force on the Ist inst., the existeiice of which has given great
annoyance to the labouring dame' in the interior, owing, in
• great measure, to misapprehension on their part of the
real meaning of the law ; meeting' of a character hostile to
tho government have taken place in different parts, but
have been suppressed by the president of this province sus-
, pending for a time the execution of the law, and it is con-
sidered that the outbreak is quelled by the measure. In
exchange nothing was done until the 3rd inst., when from
that day till the 7th about 11,9001. were transacted at 23d.;
the following day about 3,000(. were passed at 271 d.
cash in 30 clays, since when amounts from 30,000 to 3:4000
Lave changed hands at different rates from 271 d. to 28d.,

zilian steamer 8. Sebastiao arrived on the 12th inst. from
Rio de Janeiro, with dates to the 29th ult., advising a de-
cline there to 271 and 24, which has caused a depressing
tendency here. Exchange on Paris.—Bills have been ne-
gotiated at 340 rs. per franc and on }Limburg at 630 rs. and
611 to per mare baneo. We regret to state that some eases
of yellow fever have lately presented themselves both on
shore and among the shipping, proving in soma instances
fatal, but generally of • milder character then the former
epidemic.

We have to report but little alteration in our prodneei
market during the put week, the prevalence of an apa-1
thetio spirit towards general business still continuing its
most prominent feature, the only encouragement for a
very moderate demand of most leading staples having been
furnished Ly the low rates of freight, and a slight turn of
exchange in favour of drawers.
Our import market remains in the wee deplorable state
described in our late reports. The hefts= dams in cotton
piece goods has been on a more limited eeal. the even of
late at the same low prices. The deliveries of grey shirt-
ings, though comparatively small, are larger than they
were in the previous week. The demand for white shirting,
has been very moderate, and that for white figured Rhin-
eztremely small. Cambries and twills have been to-
tal) neglected. Only a few grey Nedepellime have been
sold.

Our money market has aims ao *as of isporvermat,

CHINA.

From the llong Kong paper.we learn thitt a
terrible fire took place on the night of the 28th, by
which nearly 600 houses were destroyed, in a part
of the Chinese town known as Sheong-Wan. The
China Nail says :—" From Bibb, Livingston, and
Co.'s wharf to the Circular Buildings, not a house
remains standing except the Police Station. We
have act hoard even an estimate of • the probable
anseent of property destroyed. There Is no doubt
that the Are was accidental. Had the military,
let more aposislly the police, taken the re.
?possiliWty of palling down and remoring
bnild-
mge at soma distaaos from the fire, the disas-
ter would set have been half so great se it is.
Among the Maus it is said that from 20 to 30
children are missing. And we have to report a me-
lancholy accident, by which Lunt-Colonel Tomkyns
and Last. Legg, both of the Royal Artillery, have
been killed, sad Lieut. Wilson, a bombardier, and a
private, dangerously wounded. Colonel Tomkyns
laid a train fur the purpose of blowing up the
Nemesis Tavern, and so prevent the flames from
communicating with the Taipingahan, and u it did
not explode within the time expected, he and the
others re-entered the house to examine the fusee,
sad the explosion took place before they could
soaps. Lieut. Lugg must have been killed on the
atizils he was to the bag of gunpowder.
Tomkyns, Lieut. Wilson, and the bomrdiers
wire takes up . alive and female ; bet the colonel
died daylight

The sanitary @fate of the settlement is greatly im-
proving; the deaths among the military in the month
of December were 6, against 17 lest yes:.
