in the value of Sugar and Cotton, and a declitm, of lOu'
lbd. on yesterday's prices had been established; a farth,

was, however, expected before any business of moment for
export could be effected. The Exchange on London was 'ln'
altered. From Pernambuco we have also accounts to the
bth
of August, which report the Cotton market very firm'
and prices rating high in comparison to the latest ~
tations from Europe ; the crop is said to have 11)3111"
suffered by the cold and ungenial weather in the interior.

was quoted 2,000 to 2,600 rees, and brown 1,900 to I,svd
