RATES OF FREIGHT, &c.

To AUSTRALIA.—During the past month freights
generally have ruled firm, and the bulk of the large ships
on the berth having sailed, leaves shippers less choice•
The accounts just received from the colony by the Over-
land Mail being much more satisfactory for nearly all
kinds of staple imports, and the withkawal of two of the
largest packet ships by the Government for the convey
ance of troops to the East, tend to stiffen rates, which we
fully expect will be higher the present month. Oar
present quotations are—to Melbourne Wharf by the
packets of sth and 20th, 503 ; by other vessels, 40s ;
weight, 35s to 37s 6d ; to Sydney, for fine goods, 40s ;
weight, hardware, and earthenware, 355; to Adelaide,
403 per ton weight and measurement.
UNITED STATES.—We hake little or no change to notice ;
freights are steady at our quotationQ, viz. :
To New York. BJat'n. Philadelphia. New Orleans.
