SSaoks Herewith we send yoL hle of
osS which are not very interesting. In
commercial r affairs, there is nothing partl-
cularIy new; business is extremely dull.
American produce is low--but this is more
,bs lauit OF some commission merchants,
who hunting after consignnents, consi-
dar NOT so much their friends interest as
10 have their commission--and sacrifice
therefore. often, and most generally al
Usys, the goods. Besides, as it is not
their own, they choose not so many good
!, bad debtors. and look only to render
quick account of sales-and then come,
afterwards, with list of outstanding debts.
Business would certainly be much better,
ifsbipnents were made on joint account,
or that the merchants hsre had some IN
terst in them in order not to spoil the
market The same is with purchasing our
country produce, for which they pay al
ways sous higher than those who trans
sct business tor their own account. Cot
fee comes plenty to market. There will
