| ANNUAL COFFEE STATENKNr.-In our last we
published full report OF the coffee trade of this
city and of the United States for the year ending
June 80. 1868, as prepared by Messrs. Small & Co..
and 10 day we have received the annual coffee re-
| port Of Mr. h. I. Ionsdsle. The two statements
so nearly agree IN all essential particulars. how
ever, thstwe deem unnecessary to publish the lat.
ier' AT the same time, as those who are especially
interested IN such matters may wish 10 learn the
views OF both parties with regard to the pros
poets of an enlarged business in the future, we
append the remarks accompanying their respec
tive circulars, as follows, viz:
INV ORLEANS, July LIST, 1868.
" The imports at this port for the year Just end
ing are 3202s bags more than for previous year.
and the sales are 20.896 bags more than for the
yesr ending June 30th, 1867. In addition to direct
importations we have to note receipts of some
S0UOObsgs coastwise. OF the direct importations
about 600 we're taken for Western account
proving that we have but to increase our reeeiOts
and keep on hand a full and assorted stock TO be
able TO supply that section to q considerable
extent.
The agricultural prospects Of the South, and
in fact throughout the Union at present are ex-
ceeoingly tattering and should Providence con.
tlnue TO favor US, an abundant harvest will be
gathered, which must result in speedy return to
our former prosperity. Assuming that the yield
in Southern staples will be in proportion to the
present prospect, we feel justified in advising i'm.
ports Of 200 goo to 100000 bags Coffee to this port
for the ensuing year.
Total imports of Rio and Santos to the United
States for year ending 30th June, l,244 243,
against SIC, 900 in 1867 giving increase of 1884,,
243 bags.
Total sales for the year ,124 994 bags against
9SS 460 bags in 1867. Increase of sales, 1885, 34
bags in ls6S, or average increase per month H.
377. SMALL a CO."
"NEw ORLEANS July LIST, 1868
The sales for the year closing LIST of July
1865, for consumption were liza 994 bags in the
United States leaving stock now on hand of
2l6 7S9; average monthly sales during the year
95,749 bags. Market closes nominal at: Prime
II TO l73, gold duty paid fair to good, l6 to l6I
gold outy paid common, IL to lag, gold duJy
paid. Stock in first hands, ii, 80 bags second
hands, about 5000.
IAN accounts from the Southern and Western
States represent crops in fair condition. aud il no
disaster occur, we may expect good demand for
cOfees and with our increased sugar crop, will
induce Western buyers to visit our market TO pur-
chase their supplies OF coffee, sugar AID moasses
We can certainly enable them to buy on more ad
yant9geOus terms than else where.
