The intelligence from China, brought by the overland
express., has had but little effect on the English Market.
Consols, which were in the early part of the morning at
91i for the Account. receded to 911 /.
No specu;ation of any consequence has taken place
during the morning. Money is rather more easy in the
hou4e, and little demand for it.
The cilief feature in the Chinese intelligence is the
total stoppage of the trace. and tie Americans leaving
Canton (further particulars will be found in another part
of our Paper).
