SIR
For SOME days previous to the 10Th m
slant, the Irish Channel swarmed with A.
merican vessels; and from the i Ith, 10 this
day, no less than 90 have arrived at this
port: 1t was a mos, pleasing sight, after. so
4.
| Great Britain and America, and we congra
tulate our friends most sincerely the re
lncwal of an intercourse, which will be SO
much for the interest of both countries.
We have, OH the other side, given YOU pri-
ces OF the different articles, but they must
be considered nearly nominal, as, after this
large importation of all kinds of American
produce, you may suppose the market is We
ny mech over stocked, and that prices, for
some time. To come, will be very unsteady
We. besides, still expecta great many YES
sells from all parts of the United States, and
until the arrivals begin to slacken. we shall
neither see business on any regular footing
nor an amendment in prices. -
New Upland Cotton is from sd. a I'D
per lib. and should much more arrive soon,
it may go still a little lower; Sea Islands,
in proportion, at about 22d. per ID.
Our stock of Tobacco IS very light, tlIere
not DeinS more than 400 hhdS in the Ware
house; but $50 hhtls. are now ready 10 be
landed, and we see little prospect of prices
mending for some time to come
Naval Stores have experienced wondet.-
mi depression ; previous to the Embargo be
ing removed, we sold a cargoof Turpentine
at 89s per Cwt. and now 1Ss. cannot easily
be obtained. Tar extremely dull, at 26S.
per cwt.
Ashes-Pots are down as low as 4Os and
Pearls ass per cwt. but we are of opinion,
these prices will be obtained throughout the
season. All sorts of Lumber is very unsafe
able, and when our imports from British A
merica take place, it will be still more so
4 few cargoes of Timber, just arrived, have
been sold at 3s. per foot, but we see no pros
pect OF this price being supported
Flour and wheat are more in demand than
any other kind of produce, the former is
from ass n SOS per barrel, and the latter i SIS
13s Cd per bGshel, and notwithstanding
there are about 10000 barrels of Flour al.
ready arrived, and a considerable quantity
OF Wheat as per the annexed statement. we
do not see prospect of a reduction in price
particularly for that which is perfectly sound
We hope our next will contain more plea
sing accounts of the markets and with an
assurance that we shall be at all times han
by to hear from you,
We are. respectfully,
4 Sir,
YOU. most obedent servants,
