bridge. Lord. I beseech thee to save State
street, Cornhill. and Long wharf from fire,
and tia county of Middlesex from earth
quakes: and, as have mortgage in Essex,
! beg of thee TO have compassion on that
county; and. Lord, for the rest OF the streets,

Review of the Markets in Baltimore for the
past zUesk, July 2 10 Jaly 9th, inclusiue.
SUGAR.
The import continues trihing-we only
notice SO hhds. ard 25 tierces from the w.
Indies and so cases and PAS bbls. from Per.
nambuCa. With respect to sales, none could
be effected at auction aparcel of miding
Muscavadoes from Matauzas were with
drawn a: Z dollars 60 cents--hardly any bu.
siness has been done at private sale we do
not make any change from our former quo
tatisns, though the depression becomes daily
more perceptible.
INDIGO
No alteration and inconsiderable import of
Ii seroons from ST. Thomas, aud no sales
that have come under our knowledge, in all
we have to notice respecting this article.
COTTON.
We continue almost without any new sup
plies, having only an import Of % bales from
Savannah-our market is nearly destitute of
this important article the only considera-
bleparcel We had, which was lately brought
in from New Orleans has been sent round
TO New York in expectation of obtaining
better prices-good Uplands would bring 90
cents and New Orleans, 60 a 90 cents per
ID. bot we have none OF the latter at market.
COFFEE,
We still! continue 20 receive fresh sup
plies, as we had anticipaied--th import
during the week amounts to nearly Hoo bags,
again almost entirely from St. Domingo
torgood green, 25 cents are asked; ordina-
rY and middIing, "a 243, but without find
ing purchasers, except for inconsiderable
parcels ); our market is bare of prime green
HAVANA, which is quoted at &c 26a cents.
We are advised by the late arrivals from Eu-
rope that The rise which had taken place,
has not been maintained, and prices have
receded to their former level.
FLOUR.
Has been in good demand. and large sales
have been effected at q So 4 rs per Dbl.
our anticipations respecting an improvement
10 the price OF this staple, are likely TO be
realized soooer than we expected, the stock
is moderate. but may not experience much
greater reduction, as the milers are gene
rally beginning to manufacture, and have a
! tolerabIe supply of old wheat, which will
very soon be augmented by arrivals Of the
new crop still, however. their operations
may be very inconsiderable, unless we have
plentiful showers of rain, which cannot be
calculated upon at the present season.
WHEAT.
Continues without alleration--the III. !.
proyement in the demand and price of -four,
will extend itself TO this article, and the far
mer may expect 10 receive the benefit which
an animated enquiry for foreign markets,
never fails to produce.
RICE.
We have only one or two small Imports,
consisting Of about loo casks this week.
which are offered at dollars per owt no bu-
siness Of any consequence is done as our
market is almost destitute of the article.
TOBACCO.
