to recollect that our supply of coffee will sensibly

For the Express packet nearly 20.0001. haws been negotiated

The biasinees transacted la March was to an av: rage ex-
tent. Impvrts were, with few exc rufous, mcdtrate, and the
sales of mints were large, both for consumption end re-
export to the River Plate and California. For the laucr,
several vemele are being laden ; but amuse the intelligence
recently received, there a less of feverish excitement than
formerly prevailed. Several publics sees of dry goods, hard-
ware, eiewitled. ••eildeb were imeetelly bat
attended, and elthough some large parcels of geode W 2
disposed of, the trade were extremely mations, the result
probably of the restrictive credit agreement which it bee
been determined ghat continue in force until the end of

the year.
Favourable European adviors imparted some animation to
produce, but as the supplies of coffee were very moderate,
prices advanced, and hence many orders could Lot be
isueuttd. Hides were likewise on the advance, and the
market was newly cleared.
In the money-market we have to notice an advance in the
foreign exchanges and extensive transactions, whilst stock,
whten was improving, re-acted, after an announcement by
the treasury for the funding of part of the fleeting debt.
The coneequett depression smote ted to 2 per cent., and we
assume that the operation will, for the present, be abandoned.
Corsa& The market, which was firm at the close o
February, continued animated, Bout the European advice,
befell named, until the departure of the Penguin packet,
although prises were in advance of those warranted by the
various European markets. Towards the dose tithe moath
a slight reaction occurred and, throughout, less than usual
wee done for Ise Uaited States. Oar export statement
shows an increase to Sweden and the Channel, bat a diminu-
tion to the Baltic. the whole of the other northern ports of
Europe, and the United States. Exported to 11th April,
46,919 bags. Price*: For wathsd, 375. 34.; superior,
28s. 160.; gut goods, Ms. 10.1. per mitt. The report of April
12 states t " Supplies of coffee having become limited, sad a
brisk inquiry having prevailed within the last day or two,
prices have become firmer than they were earlier in the
month."
Suoan.—Campos ruled at 2r. d. 400 re. to 2 r. d. 600 rs.;
Capitania,2 r. d. 2.50 rt.. to Ir. d. 600 fa. ; Peenams, 3 r. d.
to 3 r. d. 400 re. par strobe.
HIDICL—The value has improved ; sales extensive, and
the market nearly cleared.
At Bahia the demand for manufactures had cautinued to
be exc edingly limited, the salts having been eatirelv con-
fined to a few staple articles by the late arrivals. Nothing
whatever was doing towards diminishing the old stinks.
The subscribers to the sgretment entered into in
June lut, not to sell British manufactured goods except
against bills, have agreed to extend the trim for its duration
for lit months long, r, bettirfully satitacd with the working
of the system adopted. In saliva, or dry pods no mamma
tions bad recently occurred of any consequence, owing to the
continuance of heavy rains. Smears Arm, at 16s. Id. to
20a. 6d., at the rate of exchange, 261 d. • in some inflames
hither rates have bun paid. The articles of salt had risen
cuaiderably in price. As to freights, a Swedish barque has
been taken at 3.ia. per tot for the Channel or Gibraltar for
orders. Some vessels have arrived in ballast from Rio.
Exchange at Permunbaco, 26d. to 261 d. Freights fur Li-
verpool, 11 ; the Channel, for order,, 11.17 r. 6d.
