SIGNS OF COMMERCIAL TRouBLE.-The receipts
from the customs at this port during the month
of August amounted to S5,22l 600, an increase
of S4s7 500 over last year. In other words,
we imported something like three millions more
last August, with every prospect Of disaster
before us, than we did the August before, when
the horizon was bright ind promising. Some
large share of these goods have been sent out
on foreign account; but whether <hey were
owned in Europe or in this country, they must
be paid for all the came by US.
