EXPORTS.
Coffee—European advices, via France, were adverse,
and these were confirmed after the arrival of the Teviot
steamer. Meanwhile full prices continue to be required
by the dealers, who ask 3,700 reis to 3,900 reis, for
United States assortments, and hence have the sales
been limited to about 30,000 bags. Of the three car-
goes for Sweden, two Antwerp, one Channel, one Ca-
lifornia, and 5,000 bags for Hamburgh, &C.
It is the general impression that no business of any
magnitude will be transacted unless at a decline of fully
150 to 200 reis upon present prices.
Sugar—Arrived 165 cases Campos, 70 Mamie, and,
from various ports 1,900 barrels and bags.

BAHIA, FEB. 18, FOUR P.N.
Sugar—The continuance of rainy weather, which at
this season is most unusual, keeps back the supplies of
this article, and we now have no doubt that the crop
will prove much below an average one. Tne receipts
up to the present are 20,000 oases less than at the same
period last year ; the stock consists of 7,165 cases, 220
boxes, 953 barrels, 6,236 B bags. We quote :
Whites, regular 28000 per arr. or $3.70
picked, 28100 $3.88

Browns, Is6oo to Is7oo $3.00 t 03.15
Per 100 lb. free on board, ex freight, and commission at
exchange 27d.. and 4.80 dolls. per pound sterling.
Coffee—The same causes which have retarded the
arrivals of sugar have affected this article also, and the
supply is small. sales are made at • 35400 for Bahias,
or 6.60 dolls. per 100 lb, free on board, ex freight and
commission. Caravellas readily bring 3sBoo to 4sooo,
or 7.40 dolls. to 7.75 dolls. per 100 lb.
Hides—The stock is light, but they should now be ar-
riving freely during this and the next months. Dry-
salted are worth 108 mil per lb., of 6d. 55.00; dry, 140
reis per lb., or Sid. per lb., free on board ex freight and
commissions.
Rosewood has been in demand; we quote it 85 dollars
to 120 dolls. per dozen, according to quality.
Exchange on London closes for the English packet at
27d., with money over.
Freights are very low, the supply of shipping being
much too heavy for the limited business doing in pro-
duce; the rates are nominally 255. to 303. for the Channel
for orders per ton, and 40 reis per bag to the United
States.

SUSPECTED MURDER IN ISLINGTON.-OLI Saturday
night an inquest of several hours' duration was held by Mr.
Wle' M.P., at the Red Lion, Lower-road, Islington, upon
SaamkuefWilkinson, carpenter, aged 45, who was found in the
cellar of his house with his head nearly severed from his
body.. The inquiry excited the deepest interest. Evidence
was given to show that the deceased and his wife lived un-
happily together, but there was nothing beyond that to im-
plicate her. The coroner, however, said
that some iny
tery hung over the melanchol case, he would adjourn the
inquiry to have the stomach analysed, and accordingly the
Learned Coroner adjournedbin the inquest,
• ding the jury and
as s-
witneues to appear, under the 1i al penalty, on a future day.
