By the Charles Grant, Indisman, which arrived yesterday
morning, and which left China on the 29th March and St. Helena on
the 10th July, accounts have been received from Chins, Singapore, vice.
The letter from the latter port are dated on the 98th March, and state
that there was much activity prevailing there in trade, the usual sup-
plies of Chinese produce having arrived. For British goods, however,
there was but a slack demand, and it was expected that but little goods
of English manufacture would be takes this year by the Chinese, al.
though it was understood that the consumption was rather increas-
ing in the interior of China, especially cotton yarn. The Chi.
nem, on an average, disposed of goods at Singapore to the ex.
test of from 110,000 to 300,091-dollms annually, but it was not ex.
