The intelligence from America by the Caledonia steam-
ship—Markets, both for bread stuffs and cotton, had
slightly given way in New York ; and there was more
activity in the shipments of the latter to this country by
parties anxious to have their flour, &c. here before the
Ist of March, when they will again be subject to duty.
The money market was somewhat tighter. Freights were
very. low, being only ls. 6d. per barrel for flour, and ex-
change was higher than ever, 1104 and 1114- being the
rates for first-class paper. The steamer brings about
£37,000 in specie ; and the shipments to this country
during the month of January were expected to reach
altogether about £220,000. After January they will, in
all, probability, cease. The estimates or the crop are
generally reduced by the Caledonia, and few now expect
a large one ; 2,000,000 to 2,250,000 are about the figures
generally believed in. The Hibernia's intelligence was
received in New Orleans, by telegraph, on the 3d instant,
and, being reported favourable, the cotton market at
once rose cent. per pound, " middling" reaching 7
cents, but on the delivery of the letters the following
day, the telegraphic report being found incorrect, the
advance was lost. Several vessels had arrived, and
freights,-consequently, ruled low, 7-16ths to 15-32ds of a
penny being the rates of cotton to Liverpool. Two ves-
sels had sailed for this port with entire cargoes of oak
timber, (no doubt white oak), which is a new article of
commerce between thcs, two ports. There are now about
36,000 bales of cotton on their way to this port from the
principal cotton ports of America.
The following are given as the movements of the pre-
sent and two preceding cotton crops, as made up in New
York, January 12th, being the seventeenth week of the
season:— 1848. 1847. 1846.
