Extract of a letter from New Orleans, Doc. 26 :—The
Sugar market has improved, owing to the late heavy frosts
that have entirely destroyed a large quantity of canes. It is
now positively ascertained that at least 30,000 hogsheads will
be lost, which will leave the crop about 70,000 hogsheads, and
ajgreat deal of the last is bad Sugar.
