The General Produce Markets remain much the

tially suspended, owing to the anticipated change in
the Duty, and the sales are confined to 140 hhds.

at 295. per cwt. We have no sales to notice in:
Molasses, Rum, or Coffee. The Rice market also
remains quiet, and there are no transactions to report.
Of Jute, 250 bales have been disposed of at 171. per
ton. We have also to report 1460 bags Bombay
Rapeseed at 425. 6d., and 3,000 bags Bombay Linseed
at 495. per quarter. In London to-day Tallow was
quiet, and in the few auctions of Sugar prices were
steady. A fair business was done in Coffee at pre-
vious prices. The demand for Tea was quiet ; sound
common Congou not selling under ls. 22c1. per lb.

At the London Corn Market to-day there was .a
moderate supply of English wheat, for which there
was a fair demand, at an advance of is. to 2s. per
quarter on last Monday's prices. Flour was fully as
dear as on Friday, and Barley firm, although there
was not much business doing.

Our Monte Video correspondent,

writing under date of May 30
" Business in manufactures during the past month has
been very brisk, and stocks in first hands very limited.
Large sales have been made, principally in grey and white
goods, and we do not apprehend any decline in prices, on
account of very few shipments coming forward. Imports of
general cargoes during the month consist of the Sea Nymph,
from Glasgow, and the Florist, from Liverpool. Produce :
Total sales of Salted Hides during the month consist of

46,950; most of these sales were affected after the receip

By the Africa we have New York advises to the
22nd June. Money continued easy at 6 to 51 per
cent. for loan calls; 6 per cent. f9r short first-class
acceptances—three to six months' paper, 7 per cent.
There was_rather more doing in long paper. The
demand for sterling exchange, as well as the supply,
was very limited. The proposals for the new issue
of 5,000,000 Treasury notes had been opened by the
Secretary of the Treasury, at Washington. The
total bids amounted to 13,000,0001, while the actual
awards were as follows :—52,700,000, at 54,-to 51 per

cent.; 31,000,000, at o
cent. The unfortunate advices from Liverpool had
created a decided re-action in the Cotton Market,
bringing it to a complete stand still. The Shipping
List says :—" Our quotations, which were adjusted
on Friday last in accordance with the advance then
quoted, are now entirely nominal. We do not,
however, reduce them, as there has been nothing
done to justify any change in prices-; and
