for Great Britain. Linseed, however, continues in extensive demand
for America, and the French have also been large purchasers
during the month, some late enactment having induced them to
supply themselves from this market direct.
Safflower.—Transactions since our last have been very limited, in
consequence of the large quantity of inferior quality offering, whilst
of really good, for which there is a moderate inquiry, none is t• be
had—for the former prices must be quoted lower; but we still think
a few parcels of fine Patterghatta would (if procurable) be saleable
at 40 rupees per maund.
Hides—The demand continued moderate until the receipt of the
intelligence per Bentinck, since which we believe there has been
scarcely anything doing for the English market, and our quotations
are almost nominal.

For America a few purchases have been made at about former
rates. In horns and tips we have no change to notice.

Exports from the Ist instant up to date were as follows, via.:--
Hides, 41,418; buck horns, 5,000; horn tips, 100, to Great
Britain.

Jute—Shipments have of late been less extensive, and holders
would be disposed to accept lower rates were it possible to effect
sales, but this the home accounts have rendered far from easy.
Exports from the let instant up to date are as follows, via.:—to
Great Britain, 2,005.
Munjeet, Ginger, Turmeric, Cowries, Tingal, and Cutch—ln
munjeet we believe nothing has been done. Ginger is in very mo-
derate inquiry, but although we have not heard of any sates, we
notice a few small shipments of dry to Great Britain. Turmeric
has heen neglected for England, and even for France the demand
is far from brisk. In cowries, we have not heard of any
transactions.
Tincal has been taken to a moderate extent for the .English
market at about 12 rupees to 12 rupees 8 annas, No sales of
cutch have been reported lately.
Shell Lac and Lac Dye—Shell lac has been neglected for
Great Britain, and some of fine quality has sold at a decline ;
lately, however, there has been some inquiry for France, and
several parcels have been disposed of.
In lac dye but little has been done, all the fine marks continuing
scarce and held at high figure, and the stock of middling qualities
being also very light.
Opium—The price of this drug has been daily fluctuating
since our last, it having at one time fallen to 1,330 rupees for
Patna, and 1,300 rupees for Benares, then risen to 1,420 and
1,325 rupees, and now again fallen to 1,385 and 1,300 rupees,
which were the last quotations we heard of.
Deliveries have been progressing freely, and amount to about
4,000 chests within the month, the stock now remaining in the
Company's godown, consisting of only 3,420 chests of Patna, and

1,033 chests of Benares.
Cotton—We quote prices of this staple as last month, but these
must be looked upon almost as nominal, the business for China
having, for some time past, been completely at a standstill. Ex.
ports in all July were 989 bales, or 3,207 maunds, against, in July
1844, 19,688 bales, or 70,539 maunds, and, from the let inst.,
up to date, not a single bale has gone forward.
MONEY MARKET.

We last month noticed the Bank of Bengal having declared a
half.yearly dividend, at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, which
was shortly fol:owed by the Union Bank at 7 per cent. These
being the respective rates declared for the subsequent two or three
half-years, caused no material alteration in the value of the shares,
and although we are not aware of many transactions haring been
since effected, our quotations are much the same as previously.
Government securities have been rather more wanted, and,
although we do not quote any advance, they are firm at present
rates

TIIE STORY OF A
FAVOURITE.
By Mrs. GORE.
The design of this work is evidently a series of portraits, and re-

Mrs. Gore in the point which she lends to the one, and the wit and
playful justice with which she unsparingly lashes the other."—New
Monthly.
