We have already made mention of the seizure.
at Baltimore Of two cargoes OF Demarara
sugars suspected of having been artiflcially col
ored to evade the revenue laws. The adludica-
ton of these cases will involve an immense
amount OF red tapeism. and consume much
time before q decision is arrived at. The Balti-
more papers state that the first step In the In
vestigation will be the appointment Of commits
sions to take testimony. The commissions will
visit Demarara and probably other places. and
the taking of evidence will be necessarily very
much protracted Pending the final adjudica-
ton. however. it is learned that the importers
can release the sugars by giving the usual bond
required In such cases. which bond will. OF
course be subject to the decision when it shall
be reached. Distinguished counsel have been
employed by William II. Perot. and Tate. Null
Ter & Co., the owners of the cargoes seized. and
the cases will be ably defended.
1t strikes us that 1t would be much more
simple and expeditions method to have a chem
ical analysis of,these sugars made at Baltimore.
which would inevitably bring out the true
character of the sugars; and that 1t is palpably
unnecessary to adopt the roundabout course of
sending to Demarara to obtain a solution. We.
in Louisiana, are most particularly interested
In this subject for the Demarara sugars are as
we have said before. about the only ones inn
ported into this country, which, from their
grade and quality, can come in competition
with the fine sugars OF Louisiana.

NEW OuLLhNho DA1nAoS !
Tuesday Evening. Dec. Is. 1877. }
GENERAL REMARKS.-The market gene
rally yesterday was dull though there was
good business done In our leading staple.
The reports from New York and Liverpool
were unfavorable, as we noticed In our evening
edition; but. Notwithstanding this. there was
good business done and sales summed up 900
bales, showing decline Of &c on lower grades.
The returns from all the cotton ports show
large receipts and heavy gain.
In sugar the market closed steady and hrmer.
with receipts amounting to 1477 hhds; sales.
1867 hhds. Molasses was active and slightly
steadier. Receipts. 5455 bbls; sales, 1881 bbls.
The sales Of -four footed up 1000 barrels, OF
which 14oo were taken by two buyers, something
unusual In these dull times in this article OF
trade. The market is quiet and easy. and the
demand is only for local trade.
The supply of pork continues moderate: our
receivers are awaiting further developments in
the West, some thinking that the porcine pro-
duct has not yet touched bottom prices. The
demand here is light. the usual consumers Of
pork having evidently transferred their affec-
tions to poultry. game and other articles.
CoTTON-The arrivals at this port to-day
| fall behind expectations, and the falling OF IL

new York Trade Returns for November

The trade returns OF New YORK ior
November show n moderate sum over
the figures of November. 1875. The total
entries OF specie and merchandise
were s24.sbss2o. This is not far behind the
highest November imports ever made those OF
1870. when the total was s2s, ,237. The imports
Mt New York for eleven months In 1877 were
s3os sl2 s72 in 1876 $273 IT'S: In 1875 1919 1885,
245; In 1879. sio5, oos1s1. The customs returns
show that merchandise paying the higher rates
had not come in as freely Us formerly. and that
the ratio ia constantly decreasing. The receipts

of 1875. s2ss. os1, 800. As New York IMPORTS are
about two-thirds Of all the goods landed in the
country, and sends out about forty-five per cent
of all the exports, 1t follows from the above
