bA:i, et firth priet's.—Radway Shan-s were dull.
The prrspaq upon the re-opening of the Colonial
markets t..5-morrow seems to be that there will be a very
active trade and a spirited resumption of dealings.
Coffee is in decided favour with speculators. Sugar
seems firmer, mud in Tea a good business has been done
privately. Cotton is in more request. Tallow has
drooped a little.

In the letters received from New York yesterday
afternoon, it is stated that the aggregate value of fo-
reign dry goods entered at that port for consumption,
for the year ending Decembcr 1, 1841, was 44,974,329
dollars, of which 11,566,082 dollars were in woollen
manuractures ; 9.634,467 dollars in cotton M9llllrFC-
tures ; 15,090,811 dollars in silk manufactures; 4,88!.551
dollars in manufactures of flax, and 3.
794,418 dollars
miscellaneous.

It will otaiiously become the imperative duty of the
Home Government to relax every restriction upon the
trade of Cutuola, which otherwise bids fair to become
diverted into new channels, and especially across the
Arnericin frontier. The Oswego Times says :
"meter shipments of Canadisn produce through this port
under the warehousing law, has largely increased during
the season now close d. Among the articles now shipped
through in bond for export to foreign ports, the present
season, there have been 200,000 bbls. of flour, including
some 2,000 or 3,000 barrels to go forward by railroad.
Over and above this amount, some few hundred barrels
of Canadian flour have been sold at this port, and paid
duties here—probably not over 500 barrels. There have
also been imported into this port 623,909 bushels of Ca-
nadian wheat, of which 379,912 bushels have passed
through in bond for the sea- board, and 243,997 bushels
have been sold, and have paid duties here.
" The Canadian wheat crop of this year was uncom-
monly abundant, and of excellent quality, nearly or
quite equal to the hest samples of Genesee. By the
purchase and mixing of the last-named quantity of
Canadian wheat, our millers have been enabled to ma-
nufacture into superfine flour over a million of bushels
of low quality of upper lake wheat, which would not
make flour required by New York inspection for super-
fine,. The process of mixirg has tended to make a good
market, and to enhance the value of both kinds at this
point."

To show how rapidly the commercial and agricultural
interests of Canada are becoming identified with this
Country, it is only necessary to state that last year about
50,000 barrels of Canadian flour and meal reached New
York, while this year more than 200,000 barrels have
bt ea put in bond at the Atlantic Dock stores at Brook-
lyn. There are at this moment. over 75,000 barrels
Ganada flour sod 90,000 bushels Canada wheat, in store,
waiting shipment to England and elsewhere, every barrel
of which, of course, passed through the Oswego and
Erie canals. But what will most surprise those who
have not kept pace with the Canadian trade, is the fact
th,t there are vessels at this moment at the Atlantic
Docks, taking in Canadian flour and meal for New
Brunswick, Nova Scotia. and Newfoundland.

Accounts from St. Domingo inform us that all kinds
of business was dull. The monopoly law was still in
force. Coffee scarce. The Emperor Solouque was to
embark at Jeremie, on the 24th, for a tour to the eastern
part of St. Domingo. A part of his troops, who were to
accompany him, had already embarked,
There had been a large fire in Port•auTrince on the
15,h, when from 75 to 80 houses were destroyed. It
originated in the central part of the city, near the lower
market.

Accounts from Holland state ttat the high tide had
done much damage there. The exterior dyke of Hoek
van Holland had broken through, and the Niewland was
Entirely inundated. Two-thirds of the town of
Rotterdam had also been laid under water. At Amster-
dam, on Sunday, there were a few bargains in Spanish
Three per Cents., but nothing was done in other secu-
rities.

A meeting of London Dock proprietors has been
held this morning, at which the usual halt-yearly state-
ment was made of the business done, &c. It appears
that 780 ships entered, and that the receipts for the half
year were 247,3881. A dividend of 21 10i. for the
half-year was proposed to be paid, free of income-tax,
after which, and the appropriation of 15,0001. to new
works, the balance would be 33,9391.

The Stick Market is looking decidedly better this
morning, [llO the cessalion of the money sales has given
an impulse to prices, Consols having been 96a -a, and
now 961 a. Ezell( quer-bills are not quite so good, the
quotation being 585., and India Bonds have realised 88s.
The New Three and-a•Quttrter per Cents. have been
mai ked 97i to 98, and the Three per Cents. 96j to
Bank Svek is up to 204.

In Foreign Securities the transactions have been very
blexira❑ Stock has been 281 to 29. Peruvian

Cents. have been marked 18i. Dutch Two and•a-Half

Railway Shares have been all better. Caledonian

North-Western have risen 11 to Midland about 1!.,
and York and North Midland 1. South-Eastern con-
tinue much the same, and South-Western are a shade
better.
