THE BRAZILS.

FALMOUTH, JUNE 27.—Her Majesty's packet
Crane, Lieutenant Lewis, arrived this morning with
Brazil mails, baying left Rio Janeiro on the sth of
May, Bahia on the 14th, and Pernambuco on the
20th, bringing on freight 40,0001. and the following
Passengers :—Mr. Southam, Mr. Lott, Mr. Schmidt,
Miss Verran and Mr. Dalboussiere, from Rio ; Mr.
Winter, from Bahia ; and Mr. White, from Pernam-
buco. The Crane left at Rio Janeiro her Majesty's
Ships Curagoa and Comus, the latter having arrived
from the River Plate (bringing dates from Buenos
Ayres to the Bth of April, and Monte Video to the
16th) on the 29th of April.

This packet brings little news of any importance.
The Emperor had returned to Rio in good health,
and his speech at the opening of the Chambers had
given satisfaction.
Her Majesty's steamer Rattler, with Lord llowden
ton board, arrived at Rio on the night of the 9d of
May, and sailed again on the evening of the 4th for
the southward. His Lordship landed, but not in an
Official capacity. It was stated the steamer came in
for coals. An interview had taken place at Bahia
between Lord Howden and the French Envoy, which
latter had put in there for coals. Freights had again
advanced, and 70s. to 80s. had been obtained. Coffee
is in demand, but the arrival of the new crop is slow.
The prices are—superior, 38000 to 35200

There has been an improvement in stock of I to 1
Per cent. in general, and of 1 to 1* per cent. in pro-
vincial, both being firm at these quotations.
, Exchange on the Crane's departure 27f. Some
business done at 27k.

MONEY MARKET. - Advices from Hamburgh to
the 22d inst. again report money more easy, the rate
saving receded to 41 per cent. Owing
.to this circum-
.„tnee, and to the supply of paper being limited, ex-
...,'""inge had risen for three months bills to 13 6f. Ad.
Imes from Riga, dated June 17, quote a considerable
'decline in exchange (owing, it is to be presumed, to
furtherr, arrivals of silver,,the price being 39/d. to 39d.
Flax and hemp remained without change. In grain a
little, more had been doing, and oats were in demand.
The number of ships arrived was 1,535, of which 936
7:1 sailed. From St. Petersburgh the dates are to the
"a of June, but they bring no quotation of exchange.
`Corn was dull, with few transactions. The latest re-
Port from the Amsterdam Bourse notices a rather firmer
market for Dutch and Portuguese Securities, both of
'which had lately been more freely purchased. Spanish
was flat, owing to a cessation of active operations. The
rite of exchange upon England quoted in letters from
9ibraltar, dated the 12th inst., is 498. Spanish pillared
golfers were selling at 13 to 2 per cent. premium. The
rate of exchange at Malaga, on the same day, was 50.
~, MUTILATED BODY FOUND IN THE THAD/M.—
"11 Saturday morning, about ten o'clock, as a fisherman
was on the river near Westminster-bridge, he discovered
notnething floating with the tide, which induced him to
l'?"' to the spot, and he was surprised at finding part of
the body of a man in a dreadful state of decomposition,
il. 12c1 almost in a state of nudity. With assistance he got
. to the dead house in High-street, where it was found
to be the body of a man who had been in the water ap-
parently about eight or nine months. The left leg from
the_
and
was quite gone, while the ribs were also bare,
" the cheat could be seen through. Whatever cloth.
,nun g
the deceased might have had was gone, except a
pieceg of old shirt and a boot, the other having probably
body with- the leg. It is impossible to account for the
being in such a state of mutilation, for it is seldom
as to
i eYremai!l for such a length of time in the water as
this has evidently done, and there is
.not the slightest
due
whom the Fluty msy be.
