must be expected for mane months ; the sales since
our last have been extremely limited, the latter chang-
ing hands at Rs. 712 in a late sale of inferior quality,
and the former going at from Rs. 6-4 to Rs. 9-4; the
shipments to Great Britain in July were 3,775 mds.,
and a few chests were taken for Bombay and the
American trade.

RICE still continues to be shipped to Great Britain,
notwithstanding the threatening appearance of the
market there, from the certain effect that must be
produced by the new tariff; 38,928 rnds. have gone
to the Mauritius, some vessels having made that trip
rather than remain idle in this port, waiting for
cargo; 13,194 mds. have gone to Bombay, and some
17,810 maunds to China; in all 98,600 mds. of all
descriptions have left this port, at rates ranging
from Rs. 1-4 tot-6 for Moonghy rice, and from Rs. 2
to 2-8 for fine table kinds. The market is just now
very dull.
COTTON.—Some little excitement was expected
from the public sales of some of the cotton grown at
Bundlekund under the American growers, and sent
down as a sample. Them were altogether 64 bales,
two of which were native cotton, submitted to the
process of giving, which sold at from Rs. 11-12 to
12-4, the rest going off at from Rs. 13-8 to 14-4.
Our market otherwise is free, though prices are rather
looking down. The exports to China, in July, were
bales 7,290, amounting to 26,481 mds.
RUM is in no demand.

HIDES have been taken freely on the low rates of
freights, and the fair promise of the latest reports from
home.

HORNS AND TIPS are in request at present prices.
HEMP AND JUTE continue at the same price as noted
in our last, but an? in good demand at market rates.
LINSEED has lately been in request, but chiefly for
the American trade, which has taken from 13,000 to
14,000 maunds last month, and still seeks more at
favourable dates from Rs. 3-4 to Rs. 3-8 per maund
for clean seed.
Our trade, since last, has been favourable in its ex-
tent, and prices have been generally improved since
last year; nevertheless, it is clear to every one, that
the delay in the tariff has had. its effect here, and that
there is an evident holding off until the result of this
question, so important to the mercantile interest, is
decisively known.
INDIGO PROSPECTS (LATEST NEWS).—The latest
accounts we have received from the factories make us
doubt if even 90,000 maunds of the dye will be ob-
tained this season. Many factories that were relied
Upon for a supply of indigo, in consequence of their
exerting themselves to get the plant into the vats as
fast as possible, have had their labours frustrated by
,the sudden rise and pouring in of the river, and others
have so very little plant left as not to think it worth
their while to work it up into dye.

FLANDERS and HAMBUKGH MAIL.
VIENNA SEPT. 24.—The Duke and Duchess of
Leuchtenberg arrived here the day before yesterday
from St. Petersburgh. The Duke went yesterday
,to Schonbrunn to pay his respects to their Imperial
alajesties, and to the Princes now there. His august

that she is confined to her room.

niece, arrived here a few days ago from Kirchberg,
and proceeded on the 21st to Goritz, the winter abode
of the. Bourbon family. The Duke of Bordeaux is
expected at that place very shortly.
ST. PETERSIIIIRGH, OCT. I.—Accounts have been
received from Pernau, dated 10th Sept. (probably

Felsand, which was built this year, had fallen down
a few days before, on which account there will be, as
formerly, only one light in the second lighthouse.
POLISH FRONTIER, SEPT. 30.—We learn from
Warsaw that official information has been received

CORONER'S INQUEST.—THE LATE FIRE IN BROW-
TON-SQUARE.—Wednesday evening an inquest was
held before Mr. Higgs, at St. George's Hospital, on
the body of Jesse Montague, aged two years, who
Was unfortunately burned to death on Sunday morn-
last, under the circumstances detailed below :
'‘ilementina Campbell deposed that she resided at No.
13rompton-square. Deceased was her niece, and
'With her mother had been on a visit at her grand-
raother's since Friday last. On the evening of Satur-
. day witness retired to rest between nine and ten
,a'clock. The deceased had been put to bed by her
Itother about six o'clock, and about ten o'clock wit-
ness heard her sister cry out, " 0 God, 0 God, my
child will be burnt to death." Witness ran out of her
4.Gc`rn, and saw that the upper part of the house was in
'tames. The alarm was given, and two policemen
'eame into the house and went up stairs, but were un-
'willing to enter the room and rescue the child. The
grandmother of the child rushed in and brought it
tut. It was taken to a surgeon's, and afterwards
rought to the hospital. Deceased's mother made a
statement to witness to the effect, that having heard
the_. Child cry
t , she went up stairs and opened the cur-
, uans, but had not held the candle near. She was a
most affectionate mother, and was heart-broken at the
occurrence. Mr. Davis, house-surgeon, deposed to
the deceased having been brought to the hospital about
Past eleven on Saturday night. She was in
ftlit k'Yitig state, and lived only two hours. Several other
/4 litcesses were examined, but nothing material as to
