In order to

like amount of eight per cent twenty-year bonds, pay¬
able, principal amd ieterest, at the National Park Bank

fault in the payment of interest, the property shall be

numerous
failures
continue to take
place.
They are not, however,
for
heavy amounts, which seems to nbow that the less wealthy firms are
against the heavy losses sustained during the last
few months, in consequence of the great disparity between cotton yarn
or
cotton goods and the raw material.
That disparity is still very
great, for while middling Upland cotton is Ifd. per lb. dearer than
was
at this"time last .'ear, the advanci es ablbhed in the price of
yarn is only £ !. per lb.
This would clearly in dir ate that the trade
still in a very unsatisfactory state, and surprise cannot therefore be felt
if numerous failures take place.
Possibly the disasters are com¬
mencing with ihe smaller firms, only to extend to tho3erwho are trans
acting business on a large4 scale, for it is quite evi lent that the losses of
late must have been very heavy. It is to be hoped that the difficulties
which prevail are no], so great ns to lead to a general collapse ; but
the same time there is no doubt that the cotton trade is in a mo^.t criti¬
cal state, an 1 will cause much anxiety for some time to come. The

there was no change in the quotations, there
being no maiket at Liverpool, but holders (with private
advices that the opening at Liverpool next day was likely to
be strong) were very firm, although the sales were very small.
Tuesday our market1 opened active, under advices that the
sales on the other side would reach 20,000 bales, and prices
here advanced fully £ cent, and at the advance offerings
were
very
liberal, but later in - the day there was
less doing, as shippers were unable to dispose of ex¬
change satisfactorily. Wednesday prices were a shade
lower, the Liverpool advices not being quite so favorable
sales there reaching only 12.000 bales and shipments from
Bombay 44,000 bales; offerings here were fair but not
pressed. Thursday business continued very moderate and
prices were irregular and about \ cent lower, middling
Uplands closing at 28fc: and to-day prices are a shade off,
tbe market .closing quiet and dull. The closeness of the
money market, the difficulty in negotiating exchange ai d the
less active reports from Liverpool are the unfavorable
influences affecting the market.
Sales for forward delivery
this week are small, reaching only 1,150 bales, all Low Mid¬
dling. On Saturday 200 bales were sold at 28|c for May ;
on Monday 250 bales at 28c for April; on Tuesday
there
were plenty of buyers but no sellers; on Wednesday 200
bales were sold—100 for April and 100 for June on private
terms; on Thursday 350 bales were sold—100 for May at
28c and 250 for June on private terms.
To-day the sales
were 150 bales for June, terras private.
The total sales for
immediate delivery this week foot up 14,055 bales (including
561 bales to arrive,) of which j,487 bales were taken by

mar¬
correspondent in London, writing under the date of March 20,
states]:
Liverpool, March 20.—The cotton trade has been rather quiet this

ton has fallen ^1 to
per lb. in the lower grades: but good and fin®
qualities are firm in price. East India cotton is rather drooping; but
Brazilian and Egyptian produce suppoits previous quotations.
The
total sales of the week amount to 53,7 sO bales, of which 5,020 bales are
on
speculation, 4,490 bales are declared for export, leaving 44,270 bales
to the trade.

Friday, April 2, 1869, P. M.
Considerable
irregularity has prevailed in the market for
past week, and the close is quite unsettled,
buyers and sellers apart. Flour has arrived more freely,

while the demand has been limited to the immediate wants of
the local and near-by trade. We have seldom had less
inquiry
from shippers, and their grades have
been, nearly unsaleable.
No. 2 and superfine flours are wanted for .the
South, and
bring steady prices; but extra State and other low extras are
wholly neglected, and show a decline from the highest point
of the week fully 25c. per bbl.,
closing with some export at
$6 20 for extra State. Medium and choice
extras, suitable
for bakers’ and family use, are not
plenty, and are about
steady at the late improvement. Thu stock of Flour in store
is estimated at about
250,000 bbls.
Wheat opened the week very
buoyant, on the advance in
Liverpool and reduced stocks in store. The greater advance
was in California and Western Winter
Wheats. The advance
in Liverpool was met, however,
by the fact that it only
enabled shippers to pay the
prices ruling before the advance-,
and their
operations were further crippled by the difficulties of
negotiating exchange. Consequently most of the advance

growths, has

FRUITS.
Foreign dried have met with scarcely any demand this week.
Dealers are apparently absorbed
by the rush of Sicily green fruits, and
market for dried of all kinds has been
entirely overlooked. The demand
for Prunes for use has been
good and prices fairly maintained. Domestic
dried have been quite active, and
prices have gradually strengthened.
In Mediterranean green fruit there has been a considerable
accumula*
tion of stcc’r, which holders have endeavored to
dispose of as rapidly as
possible. The sales at auction of this description have been at the rate
of two or three cargoes
per day, and under this pressure the prices
realised have generally ranged
toi low to affurd any criterion of market
values. Much of the fruit has suffered also from the unavoidable
delay
in getting it upon tne
market, and came to sale in bad order. West
Indian are in light
supply and prices are firm.

The week

was clear, no material

in the dry goods market.
The week, taken as a whole, has

job bers exhibit
some
depression in consequence. A few new styles of prints
were

Havana, March 24, 1869.—The Weekly Report says: The increase
of
shipments observable from t* is port to all parts from 1st
January
to

years, is
large. The cause of this increase we need not state as
easily trace it to the actual lamentable condition of the any one may
island, which
induces planters to hurry
up to market produce as fast as it can be
manufactured, and buyers excited by the high prices
paid abroad, to
send out or the island all
they can procure as fast as it can be shipped.
This explains the
heavy receipts from the interior this year, which in
quiet times would have led to the belief that an
unprecedented large
crop was beiDg produced. The
contrary, as i9 already known will
prove to be the caea, and the

This Company takes Marine and Inland Navigation
Risks on Merchandise, Freight and Hulls of Vessels.
On the payment ol Premiums a Rebate or Discount
on the current rates ii made in ca9H, as an equivalent
for the scrip Dividends of a Mutual Company. The
amount of such Rebate ueing fixed according to the
character ot the business, gives to dealers a more just
apportionment of prollts than by the mutual system ;
being maue in cash, on payment of the Pre¬
miums, is more th«n equivalent to the cash valve
of the average So ip Dividends ol Mutual Companies.
