The Foreign commerce Of New York.

The yOurHalof Commerce gives it's Isguisr month
Iy summary of the commerce Of New York for July,
from which we learn That the total imports for the
month we're S27. 1856 12O and for the last seven
months Sl56, 46O, 99a, being almost twice large
as the corresponding seven months of 1858. The
exports for July Were in specie Sl0,05l, 0l9, and
merchandise So, $751; 74 The exports for July last
were in specie $2,s0l, 496, snd merchandise S..
1884 The exports Of specie last month we're
greater than any pteEi, month in our history, with
the exception of last May. The exports fer the
last seven months were in specie $43, 24s s96, aud
in merchandise $37, 100, 637. The exports for the
corresponding seven months of last year were, in
specie SIS 16l, 455, aud MERCHANDISE $780, 76S, l22
Fer the last seven months there has been q large
falling off in both the receipts and exports of bread
stuffs bat gain in the receipts of beef and pork.
There is little probability Of large export move
ment in American produce except in prices cOnsid-
erably below the average of the past years; but
the surplus will undoubtedly be sold abroad at some
price, as the production is greater than is needed
for home consumption.

been arrested by the war The war caused such
an appreciation in the value of real money and
consequently such depreciation in the price of

which they bring with them to invest in the cheap
and fertile lands of the West The return of
peace will speedily restore this species of property
to its former value, and this fact combined with
the withdrawal of the extraordinary military re-
