at 403 6d to 42s for fine.

COFFEE.—The market has not been so buoyant, but

Cocos..—Fully previous rates have been obtained.
RicE.—This article, though quiet, has been steady in
value.

Rum.—Very little has been doing, but prices remain
without alteration.

SALTPETRE.—The market has been firm, but the sales
have not been a importance.

SPICES.—The demand fur Pepper has been very
active. Penang has real:zud 3id,. and Malabar 4d, and
holders have withdrawn a good deal of the latter at 3if.
Pimento has ranged from 54d up to bd. Cochin
Ginger has been sold at 68s to 86s, according to quality.

los to 15s. per chest in advance of last year. Llarnburgh
Grapes being late, Lisbon were in fair demand, 600
packages of which have been sold by Keeling and Hunt
at public sale, and any of fine quality realized a higher
figure, Inferior 23 to 3s per box lower.
Tonacco. The market for all descriptions of
American Tobacco his assumed a very firm and decided
charact,r; in the early part of last month some buyers
having shown themselves, an advance of id to id per lb
was established, and a few purchases having been made,
holders were disinclined to effect sales, excepting at a
further advance of full Id per lb. A sale of 500 hhels
of Kentucky strips was then made at 11d, and the seller's
price was immediately advanced Id per lb, viz., ]2d, but
we are not aware of any sales having been effected, al-
though we understand that 11111 has been refused. It
has been one very peculiar feature in the market that
one or two of the principal holders have been
buyers within the last few days, and have not
shown any desire to make sales, except at
extreme rates, and to a limited extent. It is
an indisputable fact that a majority of the purchases
since last February have been made from parcels in
second hands, at full a l per lb under the prices of im•
porters, the letter contenting themselves by doing com-
paratively no busine.s, but holding firmly to their limits.
Subsequent circumstances, more especially the very
variable accounts of the growing crops, advancing prices
in America, and nearly the whole of the speculative
tiurchases being exhausted, have materially strengthened
their position, and have in a great measure placed the
command of the market entirely in their hands. Fine
Virginia It af beld at 93 end strips at is Id, with two-
thirds of the stock' withdrawn (tom the market entirelt.

Emigration to Natal appears to be going on ko exten
sivoly, that the following extracts from a new well( 1))
Mr. J. Chri,tophers, which is very interesting and highl
practical, deserve attention. The author, speaking of
his own experience, stutes—

"But he has also visited the adjacent enlonv of Natal
and he must confess that, however certain a steady man
may be of doing well in tate Cape Colony and stilt tout.,
in the Algoa Bay district, yet Natal is superior to both.
The climate is quite as healthy, the land is better, pro-
duces a good variety of articles, and in greater quanti-
ties. It is not so subject to drought; rains are frequent,
and streams and springs abundant. England wants em-
ployment for her capital, but still more fur her ileitis
trious poor. England also wants free-labour Gotten.
In Natal 1,000 cottagers may, upon the following pine,
grow 1,000 bales of Cotton the first year, worth 8,0001.;
the next year double ; and if emigration be properly
worked, and the interests of the emigrants cared for,
Natal, in ten years, may export 500,000 bales. Emigra-
tion to Natal should eon.ist, not of the rich, but, emphati-
cally, of the poor—almost of the poorest. Five pounds
in a man's pocket is quite enough, and if he has not got it,
he is none the worse. With industry such a man will
soon obtain a competency. The rich man can only
make money by labouring himself, by employing the
labour of others, or by lending money. It he wilt
really labour, superintending and giving an example to
his people, he will do well; but gentlemen of England,
who have lived at home at ease, are unsuited for emi
gration. They cannot rough the world; their education
has been faulty for the emigrant's life. It should base
been more practical. All emigrants are struck with the
practical common sense of colonists, and with the free-
dom and independence of their minds. As regards
capitalists only have I doubt. The experience I have had
in the Cape is this, that those who have had money have
lost it, and those who have had none at starting have
gathered it. They should be prudent and industri-
ous, and lay it out well, and live as though they
possessed not, and never intrude on their capital for
high living. On first mortgages they can make six per
cent., and employ any personal talent or leisure at the
same time. Six to eight per cent, is better than snore.
Countrymen are far better hands than people from Lon-
don or any other city, and smock-frocks preferable to
flue frilled shirts. Let such people employ their first
six months in the colony by investigating how business
is carried on—how farming is conducted—in discovering
the quality and value of the land, and in becoming ac-
quainted with the country generally. For six months
his money had better be idle rather than lose it altoge-
ther. Every emigrant must carry out tools necessary to
pursue his trade. Scotch and Ransome ploughs, har-
rows, &c., are the farmer's necessary tools. Seed, corn,
and vegetable seeds of all kinds, should be taken
by each emigrant; all will grow. Having seen
part of India, and visited China and Madeira,
having lived three years in the Cape colony,----I
bt-
litive, for an agricultural population, and for the culti-
vation of cotton and indigo, that no part of the world
exceeds Natal. Mineral wealth will probably be dis-
covered in due time. Coal and black lead Lave been
found on the surface extensively. Copper is also sup-
posed to be ne;r. Living is moderate. The tempera-
ture is not often too hot, usually cool in the mornine, and
evening. The country, generally, is not too hilly; at
the tops of the hills there is little stony and arid ground.
Roads may very generally be made. Rivers are nume-
rous, and with an increase of population, will soon be
bridged."

Tile Stock market continues dull, although with
scarcely any fluctuation in prices, and the paucity of
business is the chief cause of the healiness. The de-
cline of the Rentes at Paris has a slight influence,
because it presages the uncertainty to be anticipated
upon the re-opening of the Legislature. Consols have
been 96i 4 for Transfer, and 964 for the November
Account. Exchequer-bills were 635. to 665., and India
