Baltimore Interested.

BALTIMORE, Md, Nov. 16.-Baltimore
business interests are considerably interested
in the news of the revolution in Brazil, as a
large and remunerative commerce has been
built up between that country and this city.
The news OF the revolution had its effect
upon the coffee market here this morning,
and prices went.up one-fJurth of cent per
pound in consequence. The telegraph wires
were busy all the morning pouring in orders
for coffee, and the demand from all parts of
the country was strong. There was, in fact,
a rush on the part of dealers and jobbers to
secure supplies, in order to be protected
should the trouble develop serious proper
tions. There is little alarm felt that
disastrous results will ensue. The annual
coffee importation to Baltimore reaches
100000 bags, and this trade has developed a
large export trade in flour, etc.
