The provisions of the new Brazilian treaty have been a
subject of much conversation and of deep regret. No ques-
tion exists but that the heretofore lucrative trade carried on
between this country and Rio de Janeiro will be all but anni-
hilated. In fact, the Government seems to be doing the best
they can in order to divert commerce, heretofore exclusively
enjoyed by this country, or nearly so, into other channels.
France, it appears, will, ere long, enjoy most of the privileges
which this country had, in carrying on a most lucrative trade,
which might have been not only preserved to the merchants
and manufacturers of this country, but have been extended
to an enormous extent, provided liberal measures had been
adopted with respect to imports received from the rapidly
improving country to which these remarks more especially
refer.

The letters read this morning from New York to the 22d
of June, state that business continued tolerably active, and
money easy. The fall trade is expected to be good. Cotton
was rather flat, owing to the accounts out from England.
In the English market the transactions to• day have been
to a fair extent, and at full rates. The Government broker
has purchased again, but took Consols this morning,
the amount being 20,0001., at 99k. The general
quotations have been 99 to 99k. Exchequer Bills
have been steady at the premiums of 765. to 785., and India
Bonds at 945. to 965. Bank Stock has been firm at 199 to
199 f. The Reduced Three-and-a-Half per Cents are 1021 1,
and the Three per Cents 991 to 100.
Spanish Bonds are flat again, the Five per Cents being
22a and the Three per Cents. 324 to 33. Portuguese Con-
verted, stock is worth 45* to 45i, being rather better, though
with very little doing. Mexican are steady at 354 to 36 for
the Five per Cents., and at 15• for the Deferred. Dutch
Two-and-a• Half per Cents. are worth 61i to 61i, and the Five
per Cents. 100• to 101.
The Railway Shares are quiet again, and prices exhibit
some want of buoyancy.
