BRAZILS.

The Angle-Brazilian Bulk wis the object of great
attention on the part of the Imperial Government.
Several proposals had been made by other parties. The
Aoglo-Brazilian Bank was started by Mr. G. S. Brandon,
supported by influential persons in Landon, wbo have
guaranteed the capital to the Government, and it is said
that the charter will be obtained this month—capital one
million, with power to increase, to issue their own notes.
The money-market had been very tight, discounts at 12 per
cent., and no gold in the market. This bank proposed to
-'nay the deficiency.

From the BAHIA Price Current, of the 18th of Jute,
we learn that in import articles no transactions of irtn•
portance had taken place.- Of Codfish there were no
arrivals, and stocks were rapidly diminishing, amounting
only to about 300 brls. Jn export articles great dulness pre-
vailed in the beginning of the week, owing to the expected
arrival of the Petrepolis steamer ; with the exception of a
sale of Leaf Tobacco, which was said to have been effected
at 5500 per arroba for c'osed leaf seconds, and 6.500 for
firsts, no transactions of importance were effected. After
the steamer's arrival, the Sugar market again partly
regained its former activity, and considerab!e lists of
whites changed hands at 4 600 per arroba. Cotton and
Coffee continued neglected ; and prices of Hides and Ram
remained unaltered. Ie other articles no alteration. In
Freights, a vessel was chartered for the Channel at 45s
per ton. Exchange trenele.iona have been effected at 28
90 days' sight, and 271 d 60 days' sight.
From Rio there is nothing new in politics. The new
tariff would came into operalion on the Ist of July. The
government, it was understood, were disposed to make
s ma modifications in it, but no one knew what they would
he. The toff-e market reopened on the 9,h ult., at a
decline of 103 reis to 200 reis as compared with rates
quoted on the 13th of May. About 101,000 bags had
subsequently been sold ; in all 145,000 bags since the last
steamer, of which 69,000 were for the United Sates.
71,000 for the Channel and North of Europe, and 5,000
for the Mediterranean. Sugar, white, was quoted at 4,800
to 5 400; and brown, 3.600 to 4 000, Hides were wanting ;
only 360 very ordinary ones in stock. Exchange on London
ruled at 2714 to 281, the bulk of the business having been
done at the former rate; Hamburg, 650 ; Paris, 343 to
345. Discount continued without alteration. Freights
remained dui', end the few charters effected were at 35s
far the Elbe, 35s to 45s for the Channel, and 50c to 70c for
the United States.
