The New York ,Shipping List says:

The New York Shipping List says:
The depression OF ship property in Eng
land Is quite as marked as it Is in this coun-
try. Speculative building has ceased and
both sailing vessels and steamers are freely
offered at Is per cent below the prices current
five years ago, with feC buyers. All this is
logical enough. There are more ships than
business, and freights are SO low that even
with the strictest economy it Is difficult to
make them pay. The navigation of the Baltic
has remained open, and very large shipments
of grain have taken place from the Russian
ports and Kongsberg some of which have
found their way to MarselIes and other Medi-
terranean ports This, with the American
trade, has for some time past been the main
reliance OF English ship owners. The block
ade of the Black Sea was raised on the fourth
of March, and there has already been large
influx of steamers chartered at fair rates.
But, aside from this, business is very bad,
and the prospects. on the whole, discouraging.
