349 at Monthly Commerciat Report. [Oct = 
upwards of 5000 bags of New Orleans and Boweds were seld; the former at 20d. the latter 
vat rod. At London the prices run so high as 21d. and 24d. per pound. Tobacco, which 
chas long been in demand, is risen still further; leaf is quoted at 12d. stemmed at 134, 
Grain of every kind in considerable demand, the prices running unusually high. Timber ex- 
tremely scarce, in so much that the paucity of sales of the article disenables us from quoting 
any certain prices, The same may be said of naval stores in general, 
America, SoutTH.—Daily arrivals from-this part of the world; by one of the latest we 
learn, that trade was improving at Buenos Ayres and Monte Video. English ships were 
admitted, and government did not notice the intrusion. British goods were low in price. 
That this would be the case, we predicted in‘a former Report. It is even said that some 
-articles of English manufacture were sold on the shores of Rio de la Plata at a more re- 
duced rate than they could be purchased at home! So much for hand-over head speculators f 
The markee was, however, active ; and the ships were set at liberty for fresh speculations. 
There is plenty of Buenos Ayres tallow in the London and Liverpool markets. En the for- 
mer it fetches very fair prices. Brazil sugar sells well. On the 13th instant, Messrs. 
-Tyers and Co. disposed of 60 chests at 35s. to 40s. per cwt. Buenos Ayres hides fetch 
‘feom 6d. to 74. per 1b. those of Brazil, from 43d. to sd. Indigoes are tolerably steady. 
.Guatimalas fetch from 4s. 6d. to half-a-guinea per lb. Caraecas, from gs. 3d. to 10s. gds 
Those of the Brazils are low, fetching only from ts. 6d. to 3s. 
Spain.—The following notice has been issued by the Consul General of Spain: “ The 
Consul General of Spain in Great Britain, is desirous to inform the public, and more especially 
_the body of English merchants, who may be disposed to enter upon commercial speculations 
im grain, with Spain, that the Spanish government has, by a Royal mandate, published at 
Seville, June 16th, of the present year, declared that all grain, seed, and pulse, may be 
#inported into Spain, free from all duty, both royal and municipal, combining in this mea- 
sure the easiest mode of supplying the Peninsula with provisions, with the greatest profit to 
foreign merchants who may be disposed to avail themselves of this permission. x 
Joszr Aronzo EatTisa, 
No. 7, Salisbury-street. Consul-Gen. of Spain.” 
Vessels daily arrive at our Ports from Cadiz, &e, but they come hither rather to.be sup- 
plied, than tosupply. Wines are the chief articles brought by the Spanish vessels, and they 
are, generally speaking, of far better qualities than those lately imported from Portugal. . 
Sherry is sold at 92]. per butt, though, if. old, it will fetch a hundred guineas. Bucellas 
sells as high as gs]. per pipe. Barilla ashes are quoted at 31. 2s. per cwt. and are in de- 
mand. Lemons are scarce. Malaga raisins find a ready sale at prices from 46s. to $23. per 
ewt. and sun, from 3}. te 41. Cork-wood not very plenty. 
Por TucaL.—Fresh arrivals of indifferent ports from Oporto. So well convinced are the 
representatives of respectable Oporto houses, resident at London, of the utter impossibility 
of procuring old wine, or even tolerably good new wine, that they will not undertake to 
execute orders at fixed prices for their customers. There is a good demand for the stock- 
which these reputaule traders have on hands; but the greater part of the bonded wine is se 
green, that it is Gt for nothing but the making of vinegar. Portuguese shemac would sel! 
well if brought into the market at present; the article is scarce. ie 
Irary, Levant, and MepiTzRRANEAN.—Raw silk of Italy varies in price from 25. 
to 485. per lb. Thrown silk, sells-well at prices from 6os. to 75s. The half chest of Lucca 
eil brings from 4]. qs. te 41. 10s. The Barbary oil is quoted at prices from $11. to 82k. per _ 
ton, Gallipoli at 79]. Every kind of colonial produce is a mere drug at Malta, owing te 
numerous arrivals of American vessels, with West Indian and American cargoes. . 
Bautic.—We learn by private letters that the ports of Denmark and Sweden are now 
open to all neutral vessels. If this information be correct, and we have little reason to 
question iis authenticity, our manufacturers may congratulate themselves on the acquire- 
ment of a new field for the dissemination of their commodities. . Within the Jast month a 
large feet is arrived from the Baltic, well laden with the valuable articles produced by the 
‘tonntries seated upon that sea. They came to a good market, and will be eagerly bought 
up at advantageous prices. 
Hotranao.—The merchants have been informed by the Board of Trade. that, in re- 
lation to the commerce to be carried on between this country and the island of Walcheren / 
British ships only would be permitted to convey their cargoes to that island; from which 
the Commander ia Chief would have the power of granting licences to trade with the 
continent. 5 
Arzica.—-The English forces under the command or Major Maxwell have taken pos= 
session of Seneez!, the great mact of the gum-trade, and from which about 800 tons are 
exported annually. African produce, in general, bears good prices in our markets. On the 
zzth instant, Messrs Coles and Co. sold 4 casks and 56 serons of Barbary gum, at 59s. to 
1355: per cwt. and 25 casks and 60 serons bees-wax, yal. 5s. to 15 guineas per Cwt. Elee 
phants’ teeth fetch prices from 2ol..to 32lb. per cwt. Scrivelloes from 14]. to 201. — 
farwood is rathes scarce in the London and Liverpool markets, and sells at prices from g9!.
