REPORT ON THE STATE OF THE BOMBAY MARKET, FROM

THE 2GTH TO THE 29TH OF JULY, 1853.
Our moneymarket continues to exhibit all the dull-
ness usual at this season of the year. There is little de-
mand for money, which is boa:ming more abundant in
native quarters, and few transactions are taking place
in Government securities or Bank shares, all of which
may be quoted at about the rates ruling at the date of
our last report.
Business has commenced. Dealers have come for-
ward to purchase ; but, as usual at this period of the
season, chiefly on speculation. Among several sales re-
ported, goods which were scarce, such as gray jaconets,
Madapollams and shirtings up to 71b. have, in most in-
stances, been sold at an improvement in value ; other
descriptions continue low, as at the end of the closing
season.

Exchange—Exchange on England advanced to 2s.
lid. per rupee at six months' sight, but, owing to the
low rate ruling in Calcutta, it has declined, and may
now be quoted at 2s. I,ld. per rupee for Baring's cre-
dits, and 2s. lid. for draughts secured by documents.
Freights—Little has been done in freights to Eng-
land, which are pretty firm at 2/. 15s. to Liverpool, and
3/. per ton to London.

Teas.—Previous to the arrival of the mail of May 24
from England prices for congous had given way a little,
but are again at about opening rates. Lowest quota-
tions are 19 to 191 teels. Musters of about 190 chops
have been received, and the quality of the teas is de-
clared inferior to that of last year. Plain Orange Pekoe
sales have been made at 22.1 to 231 taels. Ning-Yong
and Oolong musters have not yet been shown, but prices
are expected to be high. The export from China for the
present season is estimated at 5,000,0001 b., against
2,700,0001 b. last year.

to ss. 7d. ; Bank postbills, ss. 6d. ; on India, Company's

From Shanghae our dates are to the 10th inst. No
alteration for the better had taken place in the
market, and it was estimated that in foreign import
and Chinese hands there were about 800,000 pieces of
longcloths, besides 600,000 pieces afloat to arrive.
Raw Silk.—About 2,000 bales had been brought
down. The quality is considered inferior to last year's,
but the supply is said to be plentiful. Tsatlee, $3lO to
$315 for Nos. 1 and 2 ; $2BO to $290 No. 3 ; Tysaam,
finest, $2BO ; good, $240 to $265 ; fair, $230. Only
700 bales have been sent forward to England yet.

were on the market, but the difficulty of procuring
funds checked settlements. The prices asked are a lit-
tle above last year's rates.
Exchange on England.—Clean credits have been
bought at 6s. 6d. per dollar, the scarcity of money pre-
venting much being done even at that rate.

Exchange on India.—Company's accepted paper, 300
r. per 4100. _ _

Freights to England.—For clippers, 51. ss. for tea ;
