that, all sables to render it probable that the returns of
the whole twelve teseths will exhibit an inseam on the con.
gumption of last year.
" Although a gloom still pervades the commercial world
in consequence oldie late failures and the unsettled state
of the money market, there is, undoubtedly, much prosper-
dye national good in store, from the combined influence of
the low prices of bread-staffs, sad of all articles, both of
home, colonial, and foreign produce, which will develops
the power of consumption to an extent beyond all prece-
dent. Though the manufacturing chases ere at present in
a depressed state, yet the agricultural districts already show
an increase in their demands for article., and the million
sterling, now monthly in receipt for railway ware, will
continue to exercise a salutary effect upon all branches of
the trade of the country.
" RAISINS —The cutter William was again the first ship
with new Valentin, and reached the river 14th instant, four
days later than last year. They opened at 50•., which was
Be. above the opening price of last year. The Susan and
the Nautilus arrived on the 18th and 20th instant; but the
lame price was maintained till yesterday, when, on the arri
vsl of the Lid y Kinsale, it was reduced to 475. The price
was opened at Liverpool2oth instant at 455.
" New muscatels have opened at 70,. boxes of layers, 60s.
boxes of bunch. Several cargoes have arrived, but as yet
the sales have been on a small scale, the attention of the
trade being turned rather to old museatelg, which are com-
paratively cheaper, although commending higher rates than
a month ago, in consequence of bad amounts from Malaga.
Bunches are held at 42a., layers Me. The sales of Turkey
fruit have been on a limited scale, holders having again
raised their pretensions in consequence of the high price of
Spanish fruit, and the certainty of a short crop in Turkey.
New Sultanas opened at 75..,dealined to 60s. to 656., accord.
lug to quality, and are now held at 70s.
" Flos—The first new figs, per Tagus steamer, were on
delivery here on the 9th inst. They arrived much too early
and abundantly for the season, and the quality being mostly
indifferent, they opened only at 655. The next arrival may
be looked for in the second week in October, by which time
there will be • better demand.
ALMONDS.--Sweet Mogadores have advanced to .55a.,
being very harm. New Jordans have arrived freely, but the
general demand has not yet come on. There are no old
Jordans in the market."

PORTCOUESE CATTLE.—The vessel Falcao, of Por-
tugal, which has arrived at the Brunswick-wharf, Black-
well, from Lisbon and Oporto, hoe brought, in addition to a
cargo of fruits and other productions of a similar character,
130 oxen. With reference to this supply of live stock, we
believe we may state that no previous arrival of the kind has
taken place from Portugal at the port of London. The
extent of the supply in the present instance, equalling
nearly the largest of the arrivals of horned beasts from
Holland and Germany, renders it particularly remarkable.
Hope.—The conveyance of new hops per railway
has so increased within the week put., that extra lugeage-
trains, on the Hastings branch of the London and South
Coast line, have been put in requisition almost every evening,
to expedite their transit to London. The hops are chiefly
from the plantations in the eastern puts of Susesxnud West
Kent, and these extra trains from the Lewes station
_pro-
ceeded on the Keymtr branch to the junction with the Lon- I
don line at Hayward's Heath, instead of going round by
Brighton. A great number of cheep from Lew. s Fair was
also forwarded via the same branch on Thursday ; one
drover alone superintended the conveyance of 1,000, chiefly
consiating, we believe, of ewes and ewe lambs.—Susses
