THE TRADE OF BOSTON.

The Boston Trdveller says that in commercial
affairs this is generally dull season, except for
the coasting trade but this year. 1t says proves an
exception to the rule. More than one hundred
ships, barques and briggs are in port, and some
sixty or seventy large vessels are now on the way
to that port with full cargoes. Among them are
twelve East India ships with full supplies of Cal
cutta goods. The arrivals from the Provinces have
been much in excess of last year. The Cuban
trade has been very extensive this season, and the
arrivals of sugar and molssses very large, as also
the receipts from all South American ports With
New Orleans the trade has been large the present
season, and the receipts Of -four, cotton and hides
are quite extensive. The supplies sent from there
to that city have been very large, but would have
been doubled had Boston possessed line Of
steamers.

THE COTTON TRADE.

The following Is from the Boston Post:
prospectus has been issued at Havre, France,
for the establishment of company with O capt.
tel Of eight millions of francs for the transports
ton of cotton from the United States. Eight Iron
steamships are to be furnished at first, and IT is
estimated that the profits for dividends will be
fifteen per cent, and leave surplus which will
enable the company TO double the number OF its
ships within few years. This business should
be in the hands of our own merchants. Foreign
ers already control nearly all the steamship lines
on the Atlantic, butt freightng business should
not be Ronopolized by foreign companies. We
should not lose sight of the prodigious part that
steam navigation is now performing in the car
rying trade of the world, and II commercial men
do not pay attention to It, our material interests
will be much injured. The plan Of the French
Company is TO run their boats to Galveston, New
Orleans, Mobile, Charleston, Savannah, and pos.
sibly 10 Wilmington.

cular says
The surplus stock Of fine Western Buffers that
had accumulated under the influence Of high
rates In this market, has been absorbed, at the
decline noted In our last report by the demand
for the California and English markets. The re.
ceipts Of Western Of all grades having been light
during the past week, with q better local demsnd
prices have again adys need for the best qualities.
Good TO fine State and Pennsylvania Buffers
have continued in very limited supply which has
hardly sufliced for the demand, and we note
material advance in fresh pail Buffers, and an
active dem nd, with increased hrmness, for fine
State firkins and tubs. The short supply Of But
ter is owing 70 the great risk OF shipping duriog
the hot weather, and to the fact that farmers and
dairymen are engaged in harvesting and haying,
and not 10 any speculation or forestalling, which
few are willing to attempt, after the severe expe-
rience of last season. The market closes fTm
and active, with upward tendency
Owing to the decline in the several English
markets, the market for Cheese has lost Its tone
and buoyancy, with slight decline in rates.
The receipts have been full during the past week,
but not heavy. Shippers generally are awaiting
further Developments before buying heavily Tor
export. The market closes dull and heavy ct our
