HAMBURGH MAIL.

HAMBURGH, JULY 15.—We learn, from good authority,
that among the measures voted on by the Congress of
the Customs' Union at Stutgard, is an augmentation of
the import duty on some articles, as the German manu-
facturers must absolutely have this protection. In ganeral
there is a great despondency, as a commercial crisis is
inevitable.

BERLIN, JULY 17.—The Archbishop of Posen and
Genesen has arrived here from Persia.
H!►NOVER, JULY 19.—To•da3 the Hanover Gazette
mentions, for the first time, the intended marriage of the
Crown Prince to the Princess Mary of Saxe A ltonburg.

very large of Foreign Wheat and Oats ; the fresh sup-

ported the prices of last Monday, but in Foreign so little
was done that previous terms could not be maintained.

ls. per quarter decline from last quotations. Flour un-
vaned in price' with a limited sale.

SMITH FIELD.
The supply of Beasts was moderately good, and the
trade was brisk, with some slight improvement in prices
for prime qualities. Of Sheep the supply was rather
short, and prime fully realised last week's prices. The
supply of Lambs was unusually large, and prices were
lower. The best quality of Veal was in demand at
about 2d, per stone advance. Pigs moved off slowly,
with little, if any, alteration. Beasts, 2,411 ; Sheep and
Lambs, 29,600 ; Pigs, 368 ; Calves, 176. Beef, 2s. Bd.
to 4s. Bd. ; Mutton, 3s. to 4s. 4d. ; Veal, 3s. to ss. 2d. ;
Pork, 2s. 4d. to 4s. 6d. ; Lamb, ss. to ss. 2d.
COLONIAL MARKET.
Not much business done, but firmness prevailed gene-
rally,:and no goods were pressing for immediate sale. In
the Refined Sugar market some parcels of grocery
goods were disposed of at last week's rates, and for
export rather more money was given for fine crushed,
265. 6d. being paid in many instances. The public sales
of Colonial Wool went off with much better spirit than
was exhibited on the opening, and prices have in most
instances recovered the fall of Id. to lid. per lb., which
was then established. The quarterly sale of East India
Indigo still progresses, and will occupy the greater
part of this week. Bengal sorts sold with spirit,
the good and fine qualities at 2d. to 4d. advance en the
last sale's prices, and the inferior at above par. Madras
and Kurpah arc in high request at last sale's prices, to
6d. per lb. advance. VI- )to this time about 9,800 chests
have passed the haminer, and nearly 8,000 chests have
been actually sold.
TEA MARKET.
There wereitmany inquiries after Congou and other
usitil sorts; and, as the quantity offered privately was
extreme prices were given. Company's Congou,
to is. Sid.; middling and good ditto, ls. 9d. to
2.5. 2d. per lb
