THE BRAZILS.

LIVERPOOL, 11'EDNESDAY.—By the arrival of the
William Ilassell at this port, from Pernambuco, we
have received advices to the 11th ult.

There was little doing in cotton, in consequence of
the high price demanded ; the last sale was made at
7 7.161. to 70. per pound free en board. Exporta-
tion since Nov. 1, 1849, to August 31, 1850, 30,946
bags, and for the same period last year 36,964 bags.
No sugar on the market. The coming crop, from
all appearances, promisee to be an average one. The
exportation since November, 1849, to the end of
August amounted to 1,566 cases, 302 boxes, 46,384
barrels, and 405,545 bags, in all about 42,000 tons,
showing a decrease, as compared with last crop, of
about 10,000 tons.
Hides were scarce, at 105 to 110 rein per pound.
Freights dull, at id. and 5 per cent. per pound for
cotton to Liverpool.
Exchange bad adv.,nced from 27id. to 28d. and
takers hold out for u higher rate. Money was very
scarce.

Exchznge at Rio Janeiro very firm, at ad. to 281 d.
and at Bahia 25d.

EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATION THIS MORNING).—
This morning, between the hours of one and two, a tire of
a very alarming character, and attended with a considerable
destruction of valuable property, broke out in the immense
range of premises belonging to blessrs. Beach, the leather
manufacturers, situate in Wright's-road, Bermondsey.
Owing to the highly inflammab..: nature of the stock-in-
trade, ignitable character of the

seen, at the lowest calculation, upwards of one hundred feet
of the three floors of the manufactory presented a regular
blaze, and it was nearly three o'clock before the fire was
tshryed". By that pc-nod a considerable portion of the
was levclied with the ground, and the houses
emoxnatnitnulteaucoi opposite side of the road much burned; fortunately,
the other part of Messrs. Beach's premises have escaped
comparatively uninjured. The cause of the fire is at present
unknown.

ExcURSION TRAINS ON THE GREAT WESTERN
RAILWAY.—This company's excursion train, from Frome
and Westbury, on Sunday, took about 2,000 persons to Bris-
tol and Bath, while the trains to London from the two latter
places on Monday conveyed between 800 and 900. The
company have projected some express" excursion trains,
the speed of which will be considerably greater than those
hitherto started.
ARTICLES OF UTILITY FROM HOME-GROWN PRO.
DI:CH.—We pay to the foreigner about half a million an-
nually for silk plush employed in the manufacture of very
" shiny" and stiff hats, whilst our own flax fields. would
afford us a much more agreeable and cool material, and one
more closely resembling beaver. The flax, for this purpese,
should be prepared without steeping; retaining, by this
omission, all the natural gloss and silkiness of the fibre, and
rendering it capable of receiving a permanent jet dye without
at all injuring this appearance. In the other essentials—
economy, lexibility, and lightness—no other material, ani-
mal or vegetable, can excel plush made from tine flax ; and,
if upon a similar foundation, the hat may be folded into any
shape without breaking it.—(From a Correspondent.)
DINNER AT THE MANSION-HOUSE.—The Right Hon.
the Lord Mayor gave last evening, in the Egyptian-hall,
Mansion-house, a sumptuous banquet to the principal
bankers and merchants of the city of London, and the mas-
ters and wardens of many of the City companies.
TRADE or DUNDEE.—We have still little doing in
our flax market. The late large arrivals have encouraged
spinners to hold back, expecting lower prices than holders
are willing to accept. Prices are, therefore, quite nominal.
In a short time we shall be able to ascertain the whole
i amount of reports into Great Britain, the shipment at the
i Baltic ports being now nearly closed.—Dundee Advertiser.
AMERICAN FLoun.—The ve3.el Washington, just
' arrived from New Yolk, has brought 10,962 barrels of flour
as part of her cargo, which is probably the largest impor-
tation of flour which has ever taken place from the United
States of America.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were
estimated at 5,000 hales, ofjwhich 500 American wore
taken for export. The market was heavy and prices
were rather in favour of buyers. The sales comprised
600 remain and Maranham at 74d. to Bid.. 150 Bahia
at 81d., 400 Egyptian at 84d. to Ild., and 500 Surat at
sd. to GI per lb.-llailway Shares wore in good demand
and generally at higher prices.
The Amsterdam Stock Market on the 15th instant
was more animated. Dutch Two and-a-Half per Cents.
have hem 56i to 9-16.
A merchant writing from Bolivar for the information
of American capitalists, states certain facts that
may bo useful likewise here. lie mentions that.
" A commercial house of one of the English
Antilles has asked here for a sample of the gold
which is found in the river Yurnaro, with a view to send

it to England, and by this means eucowatge an exploring
expedition in the interior of Opata, and then to found
an establishment on a largo scale. The sending out of
the above-mentioned sample,' however, hae been delayed
for some time past, in order that the United States
might have the start in this undertaking, for the
clutches of John Bull are objects cf no small fear
here, as it is by no means uncertain that
he would not, before "long, seek to become master of
both rivers and country. It would, moreover, be a
matter ef considerable inconvenience to the North Ame-
ricans, masters as they already are of the navigation of
the Oronoco, to have ouch unpleasant fellow-workmen
as the English, whoze earnest desire has long since been
to get possession of the Oronoco; its colonies in the
Antilles having, for a long time hack yielded them
nothing. They see, too, the immense tract of country of
which they would become masters in South America,
were they only in possession of this river, which by
means of its branches holds immediate communication
with two of the greatest and moat industrious re-
publics, viz., Venezuela and New Granada. They
would have, moreover, a water communication
which would enable them to invade even Brazil,
by the union of the Casiquaire with the Oronoco and the
Amazon, by means of the Rio Negro.
Through G—, who has arrived at Granada, I have
been apprised that Mr. Bealer and others are about
seeking to obtain from the Government of Casanaire the
privilege of navigating the river Meta, and that
they will even lay this petition before tho Con-
gress of New Granada. If this privilege of navi-
gating the Meta he granted to persons uncon-
nected with Coe company of the Oronoco steamers, the
interests of the latter company will suffer greatly; for it
is a fact important to be known that the provinces of New
Granada that will patronize the Meta enterprise are almost
as important as Venezuela itself; while many of the
traders with the products they have for sale, who are
now unavoidably obliged to make:use: of the Magdalena,
will employ in preference: the: navigation cf the Meta.
By means of this they will convey their products and
fruits to Oronoco with less risk, in less time, and at a
lesser cost than by tho Magdalena to Carthagena and
Santa Martha, the old route to the greater Antilles and
to Europe.
" Were we to take into account solely the mules that
would be sent down the Meta, we would find that the

sums paid for these would amount to no less than four
thousand dollars annually—say 800 at 5 dollars each.
Besides these, there is the leather, the cotton, the wool,
the wood, in fine, numberless articles, which at present

go either through the Magdalena or Lake Maracaibo;
cattle, too, would, beyond a doubt, soon be convey, d
by this route, a result the more important from the
fact that from the Oroncco to New Grenada, these

are an ohject of universal speculation. The over-
land route, which is now pursued, is one
of extreme difficulty and loss, from the great number of
rivers and mountains that have to be crossed. If, in-
stead of pursuing a course so manifestly disadvanta-
ge us, those engaged in this traffic could send their
cattle to the plaias of San Martin by means of the
Meta steamers, they would do it with joy. Remit-
tances would be lees uncertain and more expe-
ditious, the expenses of conveyance would be
less, and the whole trade wculd be bene-
ficially influenced. What is beyond a doubt, how-
ever, is, that the trade of the Magdalena would be
transferred, by means of the Meta, to the Oronoco, a
thing which, as is well known, was done some ninety
years ago by the former inhabitants of New Granada.
The foundation of Catthagena being of a more remote
,origin, and its inhabitants more numerous, the commu-
nication with Guiana, by means of the Meta and the
Oronoco, was prohibited by the Spanish Gov,. rnment."
The English Stock Market has been very firm again
this morning, but there is rather less business doing.
Consols have been quoted On for Transfer and 97

have been 99 to 1. Bank Stock has realized 209} to 210 k,

premium. The attendance at the Bank of England for
the receipt of dividends is comparatively large, and
t•lcre is the more inclination to call thus early for them,
in consequence of the greater opening that exists for
the emplayaient of the proceeds in railway and other in-
vestments.
In the Foreign " House" Peruvian Bonds take the
lead, and they have borne very high prices, the Four-
and-a-half per Cents, being 81 to 824, and the Deferred
371 to 38k. Mexican Bonds have been at 311. Spanish
Three per Cents. have realised 38,1 The advises from
Lisbon are considered to he more favourable, but this
has not stimulated speculation in Portuguese Securities.
Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. have bcen 97 to 97i.
The Railway Share Market has been very brisk again,
and prices range higher for several of the principal
lines. The reduction of the stamp duties has already
been found to operate most benefidally, and the number
of real purchases made in consequence has greatly
increased.
