"The tidin2s from Europe by the steamer, to the
9th instant, Of the most Interesting character
Tho rise in cotton was expected, bnt the advance
breadstuffs was altogether unlocked for. The
demand for American productions was never as
great as by the last accounts and there is no doubt
supplies will be wanted for full six eight months
to come. The news had most wonderful effect
here and at other points; Flour, Corn and Wheat,
have run up at a most extraordinary rate Cotton
has improved cent; Freights have advanced, and
vessels are in the greatest demand The arrival OF
specie has been larger than was supposed. The
advance in Cotton will add to the item of our ex-
ports, so as 10 swell the amound beyond any thing
that We have known for years. Our farmers,
planters and shipowners, will realize a rich har-
vest for sometime to come. These great in
teress, and, when successful, will have command
ing influence on the prosperity of the country.
The crop of Cotton will 60 forward this season at
near one hundred per cent. advance from what
1t was two years ago. Merchants now expect
very brisk and fourishing Spring Trade, and
there is every reassn to believe they will not be
disappointed"
