THE BRAZILS.

By way of Havre we have received advices from
Pernambuco to the 24th of June, and from Bahia
to the 21st of June, which are nearly a week later
than those last received by the mail steamer
arrived at Southampton. The English brigantine
of war Spy had arrived at Pernambuco. There
had been no arrivals of vessels from Liverpool or
London at either of the ports. At Pernambuco
nothing had been done in freights during the
week, in consequence of the few vessels open to
charter demanding higher rates than shippers
were disposed to give. The business done in
sugars was small, and the shipments for the week
are reported at 1,498 'tons. There was a small
business doing in exchange on London, at 27d per
mil reis. We subjoin details of the commercial
news from both ports :
PERNANIBUCO.—.IMPORTS.—The business of the week
has been very limited, owing to the non arrival of vessels from
foreign ports.—Butter : No arrivals, and no sales to advise.--
Codfish : Owing to having no jerked beef in the port, the
demand for fish has been increasing : and as no fresh supplies
have come to hand, stocks have been reduced to about 3,200
di urns. The last cargo from Newfoundland, per the Chanticleer,
was sold at about 131.000 instead of 14$000 per drum. _Flour :
The cargo from Boston, per Helen, has proceeded on to Bahia,
which, together witliche consumption, has reduced our stocks
to about 10000 barrels. 400 barrels from Genoa, per Daino,
are retailed by the importers; and of Lisbon, sales by public
auction have been effected at 20$0A0 to 225000 per barrel.
Manufactured Goods: The demand is improving.
EXPORTS.—Sugar : The stir in the market this week has
been of a trifling nature only, and the purchases have been
next to nothing from the stores ; the prices in the hands of
=autos have ruled at 24450 to 25500 for channel kinds,
2000 to 25750 for superior lots of 'AI uscovadoes, and 3sloo
to 45200 per arroba for whites, low to fine qualities, which
latter are denominated thirds and seconds. The shipments
have been 1,498 tons, making a total since the com-
mencement of the crop to date of 48,801 tons, consist-
ing of 20,803 tons whites, and 27,998 tons browns,
against 51,357 tons within corresponding period of last crop,
comprising 28,077 tons whites and 23,280 tons browns ;
during same time of 1853 to 1854, the shipments amounted
to 44.709 tons, of 18:52 to 1853 to 57,958 tons, and of 1851
to 1852 to 41,029 tons.—Cotton : The entries of
the week have exceeded those of the previous one by
69 bags, all of which have been purchased on arrival at
65200, 0300 and 65350 per arroba. Since Ist July last the
entries amount to 21,357 bags, and the shipments to 20,729
bags, against within same dates of last crop, former 26,820
bags and latter 22,135 bags; stock for sale and shipment to.
day 2,924 bags, against 6,028 bags at like date of last year.
Maceio and Paraiba cottons : Sales to the amount of 2,500
bags of formers have taken place at 65400 and upwards, part
in payment; of latter no sales have been made, sellers are
asking from 7sooo per arroba upwards —Hides : There has
been nothing stirring during the week, and we consider the
rate for purchasing to be 200 rs per lb. The total exports
since Ist November last to date, exceed those of corresponding
period of 1854 to 1855 by 342 ; of 1853 to 1854
by 22,490; of 1852 to 1853 by 23,910 ; and those
of 1851 to 1852 by 32,884, dry salted.—/:um : Entries
and stocks continue to be limited, which, together with a
good demand still prevailing, have caused prices again to advance,
and 86$000 to 88$000 per pipe are the rates asked to-day
Spirit, nominal 140$000 to 1455000 per pipe. 307 pipes
have been shipped since our last number, making the total
shipment since Ist November last 5,051 pipes and being an
excess of 315 pipes over those of same time 1854 to 1855,
and 399 pipes over the exports within same dates of 1853 to
1854 —Freights: Nothing has been done during the past
week ; for the few vessels open for charter high rates are being
asked, which shippers do not feel inclined to pay.—Exchange:
A small amount has been transacted at 27d mil reis.—
Discount : Bank rate 7 per cent per annum, money is
plentiful out of doors but apparently with little demand.
BAHIA.—ExPoaTs.--Sugar : Both whites and browns
are in demand, but purchasers refuse to grant former prices,
and transactions have consequently bee❑ on a very limited
scale; superior qualities are scarce, and in request for the
southern markets. Quotations remain unaltered. Cotton :
Without alteration, arrivals being readily disposed of at former
rates of 55750 pr arr for Maceios and 0000 for Bahias ; a list
of the latter has been sold at a higher price which has not trans-
pired, but supposed to he 6sloo or 65200 per arr:, at which,
Fxchange 27 122, it costs 6d to 6.11 d per lb. tree on hoard,
exclusive of freight. Coffee: We have had no supplies, and
quotations are entirely nominal. Hides: Unfavourable weather
has prevented shipments, and prices consequently remain
unaltered. Freights and Exchange: No transactions have
transpired since the departure of the Southampton steamer,
and quotations are nominal.
