SuaAu The total consumption of
sugar in this country last year was 527,'
600 tons, Of which only 45,Oo0 tons

the deficiency cannot be supplied at
home, it is assumed that prices will be
largely advanced.

from Havana on the l4th, by the ex-

General of Cuba. If the poor old

his fortunes in Mexico, he will be
very apt to lose his head.
A FUNERAL INcIDENT.-It is rela-

hotel to let the mourners take drink,
and during the detention, the horse
took fright and run away with the
hearso and tumbled the corpse into
ditch.
