sI 1t is stated on good authority
that all offer will be made at the next
session of Congress, by company of

the lining so that your heel cannot
proceed nor yecede, just sit down cool

your ANGLE, then place the boot over
a slow fire, SO as to melt the foot ont

i Messss Editors Since my last advices per De
Soto Of I'd inst, the Sugar market has been in a
state of complete torpor, caused partially by the

by the extremely unfavorable state Of the weather
for outdoor business. Holders are nevertheless
very firm, and after the arrival of the Isabel from
Charleston, onthe Sth inst, advanced their preten.
sions a full half rial per arrobe beyond my last
quotations. Shippers do not appear inclined to
operate at these rates, especially as they have to
obtain good strong dry sugars, also to purchase
larger quantities than they require of lower
grade, the former descriptions being very difficult
to meet with. The stock here and at Matanzas is
computed at about $4,000 boxes against about
50, 900 at this period last year In Muscovado su-
gars have nothing to add to my last advices.
