Twisr.—About the beginning of the past month, on receipt
of the advice, of the great advance M the home ioarket, a specula-
tive denuind sprang on and hug•' quantities changed bands
at an advance of 2 to 4 pie per marsh. This, however,
did not book arid dealers not being disposed to operate cm the same
terms, and holders being Item, the exported mica allow a corre•pand-
.ng falling off with that of pine goods.
!drawee—The native holydays of the 2d, 3rd, and 4th, com-
bined with the tightness in the money market, have kept
dealers not of the market. Holder., however, show no ayeaptonas of
submitting to any reduction in their demands; in fa 4, iron is ha nein
instances held for an adva.te, but for the perseatpricas of all are in a
measure nemionl.

MONNT lklAitliZT.-We have very little change to notice in the post.
tkrn of our money mark, t Mum the 18th ult., but, it anything, the
tightnem then noticed has increased. Cov.rament sceurituv have
fluctuated in value very considerabiv. In Bank ~tack but few trans-
actions have transpired, there being at preterit but little disposition
manifested to invest.
Farrow es-For • few dors previons to the receipt of the mail on
the 23rd nit., the basin. :on in produce having slackened, there
was leas inquiry for tonnage, and some panties anxious to

a decided .dvance took place, the tote kr Rice rapidly ad-
vancing from 6/. 15s. to 71. 10s. to 71. lie, at IDLiCti it

gree of conddeace. In the rates for Mauritius we have not howl

tained at 2r. 2.1. per ; but C.lll scarcely think it possitge this

CANTON Yen. 15.-There have been two failures among the llama
announced this new year; the norgugs they owe to the teamen ore
said to bevery hire. The hind. Is hoe onlyjust terminated, and the
market has hardly yet opened; tranactionsreporta, therefore, have

loas—The anxiety of the foreign merchants to close eccounts with
the native merchants prior to the China new year caused much nett-
dty in the market, and corsiderable quantities of tea were settled
at rates above what otherwise RIAU have biro given bad cub pay-
ments been made. This has been the ease more particularly with (bis-
tro, a large proportion of which has been bought of the teamen by the
native merchants or brokers at 2 to 3 tarts above market rates, sod
who have *hipped it under advances that have been merely nominal,
the amount agree:. for not beteg paid in cash, but being put to the
credit of the Chinese brokers' amount with the foreign merchant.
One of the results of this course Ms been a very heavy toes to the tea-
men, and which ',rabidity may prevent a surplu quantity of Corigmi
being brought to market next reason. Of this kind about GO chop;
have been settled since the deportut r of the lad mail, leaving about
100 still to the market; marts the whole of these being of the
third and fourth crops, for V.i:t!ch 12 tact. are wanted for
common and ordinary, and 1.1 tails for good ordinary. Of Stai-
d:long about 1,000 chests have been settled, leaving about 7,4)03 in the
market, at 12 to 15 tarts for common, 16 Wets fur fair, and 20 to 26
tads for middling to good; of fine none. The frock of Pekoe is
dill large, but the quality of it is Orly inferior, and obtainable at low
prim. Of Scented Orange Pekte )lwahrung) about 3,000 half chests
have born settled at 22 to 98 tact. for fair to middltng. Stock about
1,500 40:4000 holt cheats. Of Main Granite Pekoe 4,009 half chests have
been settled at 10 to 14 tins, lowing still some 8,000 in stock. The
transactions in Scented Caper have been mall, and at loot montlie
rates, say 17 to 20 tads for fair quality; in plain sorts nothing done.
About 3,090 half chests of :Sing Yona Ivsv: Men taken at 15 to 13 taela
for fair to good ; the stock is about 9,1.00 to 4,000, and present ratosl4

been done; 10 feels aced for e ,mmon. but no bayere.
GREEN TEA.—Tbe stock of superior cleat:ties of young Hylton is ex-
tremely moderate, and finer ore getting ewerv. We quote
miring at 22 to 23 tails ; moyune, of cargo quality, 25 to 26 Saris, and
good cargo, 28 to 32 tacl-, superior 31 to 38 tees. 0114 Hoe 4U to 46
