The Flour per Midas was sold at llIOoo per
Dbl. deliverable from on board at Montevideo,
where it is -believed now to be worth upwards
Of Sic. The Panama has also sailed for that
port without landing any thing here, and in
case of not meeting with good market, (Which
will no doubt decline on the appearance OF SO

Cape. Of the other parcels OF Flour there are
only about 5000 bbls. on hand, principally OF

the coast Of Africa. Brandies, oils, wines, cod
fish, soap and most other imports are In plenty.
Coffee will probably be something lower, the
last accounts from every part OF Europe beng
so extremely discouraging that few shipments
