The Illinois has arrived from Aspinwal, with
California dates to the 9Th March. This is an unu-

The Shipping List (San Francisco says:
"Athough we have movement OF particular con-
sequence or at best but two 10 record in any
line Of merchandise since our issue for January 90 the
fortnight Just passed has not been by any means
inactive one in business circles IN San Francisco.
good healthy business has been done and at generally
satisfactory rates. The arrival of number of vessels
from Eastern domestic European and other ports, has
furnished abundance of fresh invoices generally
suited TO the wants Of the trade, while the improved
demand from the interior, by furnishing an available
outlet for goods, has afforded an opportunity to the
iobbers TO take advantage of The market.
"The advices received by the mail steamer John l..
Stephens port the evening of the lst inst, from
the Atlantic States and Europe have been generally
dgested and considered OF decidedly satisfactory
character, except by those interested in Grain and
Flour.

circles worthy of extended notice Money Is or rather
bly, now be quite easy il not for the long cOntinu
auce Of the dry weather which seriously ntereres with
the operations of the miners and shortens materially
the supply Of dust not merely here but throughout the
whole State. Rates for loans, however, remain with
out change and the demand for money the pant of
the merchants has perceptibly declined.
The remttances of treasure by the last two or
three steamers show decided falling off from the
shipments of the months Of December and January.
We think 1t likely that within short time they will
again be the increase and probably for two three
months keep up to the old standard
"Dust, which month ago was coming in very
freely is now somewhat scarce, the long spell of tine
weather having dried up the smaller water all
over the country. There still, however, must be
very large amount now being taken out, and we
aware that the funds going to the Eas private hands
are larger than ordinarily Is the case"
