Stock on hand in West India Docks, (on 18th June,
1827) 11,502 Casks, '77,166 Bags, &c.
FRUIT—The only descriptions in which there is
any thing doing is Red Smyrna and Valentin Rai-
sins, the stock of which is being reduced very fast :
in prices there is no alteration.

SPlCES.—Pepper may be quoted a shade higher ;
Cinnamon is firm.

Two parcels of new Carolina RICK, consisting of
290 casks, have been publicly sold at from 33.. to
345., which is rather lower.

HON.—The accounts to-day from the plantations
are in general much more favourable, and the esti-
mated amount of duty remains at 150,600/. The
Hop market is stationary.
In SALTPETRE there is little or nothing doing for
home consumption, and some large expo tations to
Continental markets have recently taken place, in
the hope of finding a better sale there. The present
price is from 225. 6d. to 235. Refined is steady at
30s. per cwt.
THE SILK TRADE.—In an unreported discussion
in the House of Commons on Tuesday morning, we
understood the Chancellor of the Exchequer moved
the continuance of the present law for one year
longer, regulating the duties relative to the Silk
Trade. This branch of our manufactures still re-
mains without animation, excepting for light goods.
Turkey Raw Silk retains the late advance, being
quoted at 14s. 6d. to lbs. per lb. East India Raw
Silks bear the last sale prices.
. THE WOOL TRADE.—There is a pretty regular
demand for Wools, but prices do not improve. The
manufacturers are busy, the low rate at which they
can obtain the raw material inducing them to en-
large their stocks. Nothing has occurred to induce
the belief that the evidence taken before the Lords
Committee will occasion any alteration is the duty
on the import of Foreign Wools.
IRON.—The Iron trade is heavy at present,
British bar not fetching more than from 71. 10s. to
8!. per ton. At the commencement of the year,
from 91. 10s. to 101. per ton were realized. Sales
are reported even so low as 71. per ton.
RUSSIAN PRODUCE.—The commercial letters from
St. Petersburgh to-day, state that very little was
doing in produce. Tallow was on the decline, being
quoted at 99 rubles on the spot, contract 97.
Here the price is 365. 6d. to 365. 9d. per cwt. In
Bristles there is a good deal at present, but prices
are not improved.

COTTON.—This market has been deprived in
some degree of the energy lately displayed, and sales
are reported on rather lower terms. The public sale
of Surats on Tuesday, went off from 314. to 4/d. in
bond. Surats run from 3id. to 5d.; Dengals
to 41d.; Egyptian 64d. to lid.
'(From the Calcutta Price Current, Jan. 14.)
ENGLISH GOODS.—Woollens are dull of sale.
Cotton goods are in demand. Muslins are improv-
ing in value.

INDIGO.—The demand for Indigo is exceedingly
brisk. The Americans, French, Armenians, and
Arabs buying freely; about 80,000 maunds have
passed the market.
OPIUM.—The market has been cleared of this
article.

SUGAR meets a ready sale.
Freights to London from 41. to 61. per ton. Cat
goes very scarce.

LOCAL STORM.—When Mr. SCORESBY,
sen., commanded the ship Henrietta, he, on one occasion,
experienced on the Greenland sea a tedious gale, accom-
to a a e,
}rallied by snowy weather. As the wind began b t
a ship came up under all sails. The Master hailed the
Henrietta, and enquired why she was under close-reefed
top-sails in such moderate weather. On being told that a
storm had just subsided, he declared that he knew nothing
of it, though he bad observed a swell and a black cloud
a-head of his ship, that seemed to advance before him,
until he was overshadowed by it, a little while before he
had come op with thy Henrietta. He had had fine weather
and light wind, the whole day.
