Business in imports is nearly suspended. The deliveries
of grey shirting. have lately been rather large, an outlet
having been found at Ching-koug, previously thought to be
impracticable; however, the highest quotation for 3j to Si
lbs. goods, the only description at all wanted, is 1 dol. 20c.
to 1 dol. 2. c, per piece.
TZA.—The extreme rate of exchange, and the impos-
sibility of selling goods against produce except at ruinous
rates, kept our tea market quiet at'.. r the departure of the
last mail until the list few days, wheo the arrival of acme
chartered vessels with a short number of ley days, obliged
the charterers to snake some arrangements fur loadiug
th• la, and the Cabins were induced to accept Eaglish
bails at 7s. 2d. to 7s. 4d. in payment for their teas, in winch
way a good many purchases have been made.
SlLlC.—Since our lut advices !arge quantities of silk have
been brougt.t down, and the silkmen have been anxious
sellers at reduced rates; operations have been very extensive,
say fully 6,000 bides.
Excites:mi.—Credit bills on England 6 months' eight
7s. 9,1. East India Company's b.lts ou Bengal accepted
3,10 rs. per 100 dole.—Malwa, 310 d stock 2,4001b5. ;
Patna, 324 duls. to 330 duls., stuck 60;,P,5.

The import market has been exceedingly dull during the
hut fortnight, since the departure of the Siamese tralers,
and, local wants being on a very limited scale, there is no
immediate prospect of impr ,venicut. From the causes no-
:iced in our Ikuit, holders of co'. on manufactures are offering
to sell at a further reducti in in price, particularly of twist,
but buyers are very shy in adding to their stocks.
EXCHANGE.—On England.—The Oriental Bank offers to
dr kw at ss. Id., 6 months' izht. Private bills :ire selling
at ss. 2d., six months' sight ;but, from the continued tight-
ness of the money market, which is causing great inconve-
niency, an advance may he ex acted by the chase of the
month.

*ARRIVAL OF THE ARABIA.
LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY.

The Royal Mail stcam-ship Arabia, Capt. Judkine,
was off Holyht ad this morning, inward bound to this
port, with the usual mails from the United States
and British North America.

The Arabia was to leave New York for Liverpool
on the 19th inst.; she has, therefore, in another ex-
traordinary run across the Atlantic, again given proof
of her great speed.
Owing to the state of the tide it may be 2 or 3
p.m. before she can arrive in the river; and her
mails will not be deliverable in London until Mon-
day morning.
