There is not a single arrival from the Colonies to-day.
The following statement relative to the trade between
the United States and Spain is not without interest at
the present moment, especially as a strong rivalry exists
for commercial precedence on the Continent. It is a
quotation from the New York Herald--
" The trade between the United States and Spain has,
within the past year, fallen off, but the decrease in the
imports into Cuba from the United States are greater
than the decrease in the exports from Cuba to the
United States. The heaviest decline has been in the
trade between Cuba and Great Britain. In 18.12
the importations into Cuba, from England, were va-
lued at 1,558,703 dolls. more than in 1843, while
the exports from Cuba to England in the same
year, were valued 2,406,443 dolls. less. This decrease
in the trade is more favourable to Great Britain than to
Cuba, while the decrease in the trade between this
country and Cuba is more in favour of Cuba. The ag-
gregate decrease in the value of the exportation of the
island in 1843, compared with 1842, reaches 1,654,909
dolls., while the decrease in the imports is 1,215,430
dolls.—a difference of 439,479 dolls. against the
trade of the island. It would not be just to infer
1 from this table that the trade of Cuba was perma•
nently declining, as we do not think that is the case.
Some changes hare recently been made in the valuation
of goods exported from Cuba, particularly the cost of
copper ore, which reduces the total amount, and makes
it appear that the quantity of merchandise exported was
diminishing faster than is actually the case. The trade
of the island is in a very healthy state, notwithstanding
the diminished movement. The exports exceed in value
the imports several millions."
The market for the public securities has not been very
firm today. Consols for Money and the Account have
been done at 100 the opening price for the latter
i
being 1008. Bank Stock is up to 2131, a higher value
than it has realised since 1837. The Three per Cents.
Reduced have fluctuated from 100; to 100 i. The New
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. from 10.1/ to 1041.
Exchequer-bills have been sold at 575. to 595., and India
Stock at 286.
In the Foreign Market there has been a fall of about
per Cent., the present price being 391 for the Account,
and 27 eeil for the Five per Cents. Portuguese
Converted are at The Dutch Funds are pretty
steady. Mexican are at 34:1 8.
A vast amount of business has been trans-
acted in the Railway Shares to-day, and at
improved prices in most instances. The pro-
spectus of a loan for the Republic of St. Domingo has
been circulated to-day. The instalments are to extend
over a period of seven months. The Republic is stated
to be free from debt, and the chief part of the funds to be
raised here are to be appropriated to the full develop-
ment of the resources, egricultural us well as mineral, of
