winch I notified you of Mr. Greer's death.
The report that the wounds he had receive! in the
??timgecus and inhuman attack upon him by Gov.
Mendez and bis minions, at Yir?in Bay, had proved
Mortal, came to me so well authenticated, that, be
Bevmg it myself, I had no hesitation in communis
?tog it to you. I am most happy, however, in being
?We to correct it. Mr. Greer srill liven to reap, I
?ope. a fust vengeance against hw persecutors, and
?o demand justice for this outrage against the rights
of oar citizens.

?rdJD latum and dj -oord appear to be as irradicab'e as

Qui maintains a high price. The number or sVarasrs
Bow employed from this port, with the high rates of

as tbe present rates for some Hon* to come.
Coki>a<;*. ? Our stock at present is ample for the mole
rat* dematd.
Con vf ?The stock Is Terr light ; our consumption ia rery
large; iinpoitatlens at present wauld pay well.
CLOTULtu.? Shop cloning ia plenty, ai d sties clow. We
would Lot recommend shipments except of bent quality
and fash lot able style.
Cakiuagw ? American it coming into ure, tnd are rery
much preferred over English at Colonial. One and two
leat buggys biirg a goc.l prodt ? we hive no doubt 'l.ey
will soon supersede all others. (ir*at care should be
taken in the psclitg, the wimi of package* should luve
tarred cloth pisted oyer them. (,ar#e shipment! should
not be made, as our market, will not bsar it.
Corn Mr. u, is tot known in this market, ami is therefore
un??Uab'e.
Fun r is firfa at quotations. American is received with
favor; a large proportion of that reoeived h*s soured on
the patssge. Haiall and Gallifgo will brirg 10s aivance
on other brands. Oar stock is sufficient lor about three
mouths? the consum ption being about 1,OCO bbls. per
day. The tendency of prices is decidedly upward, and
sweet is now held at 00*. We can bat thiik that
t?e sbirsncnts received witlin the next Ave months
will realize a handsome profit.' Colonial will come
into the market in Januarv. Adelaide can only spare
16,000 to 17,000 barrels. ' Van Pieman's 1-and adn
the Sjdney dis'riet will require all that they will raise, so
that we shall have to depend mainly on Chili and the
I'nited States. Our present stock is held principally by
speculator*, one house holding c early half in the market.
I"nouTtTtB.? Our importations have been Urge during
ths month of August; moit of the lots that have arrived
in good older have been disposed of *t 00 to 80 per cent
advance on invoice cost. Lhair* the same. American
furniture is fait ccining into use and the demand ev.ny
day increasing. More oare should be used in packing, to
preterve it frcm the effects of dampness of the vassel.
Regular shipments, in modulate quantities, will we think,
realize a remuterative profit.
Babdwark.? American sttel poiatei, short handled, of
good msnnfacture, is the oily kind that will pay, they
are in good demand.
Naval Smsw ? Tir i* ia fair request at our quotations.
R< tin and pitch dn!l of rale.
Provisions. ? I,ard is totally unsaleable. Pork, hiras,
(ides, nod ><acon are ia moderate demand at quotations.
On the optrlng of the rofuis, atd as warm weather ap
pros.?hes, an advance can be saftly anticipated. Stocks
are Veld for a rise. Gre.\t cue should ce taken in the se
lection and picking of hams; but few loU keep that ar
live from tbe States. The mual mode of Flagging and
whitewashing d .es not seem to answtr in t'ais siiiuate, an
it c es rot keep them from the fly. Wo have heard of
one or two lotr that was coTertd with charcoal baf ire
bagging, came out in line erv.er and s id at a high price.
Bee i is un?aleable at present. Batter is slow of sals at
quota ions; it is held lit an advance.
Sf<iABf\ ? The stock of inferior American is very large,
and of alow s?l? ; a really good article of Havana wool 1
n?t n good profit to the shipper.
Spikitr? (Stocks on hind >n this and other co.'o&ial
ports are very heavy; and although the onsimption is i
iniin*n?e, without a temporary cassation ia receipts, an |
advance cinnot be looked for. Toe Collector at Adelaide
has given notice that no mo;e can be received ia bond, I
in ccnseqnence of the impossibility of obtaining sa'e i

ToiU' W ?Stocks are very large; the bulk, however, is

As Christmas and New Year's Jay this year come on

This ia a very extraordinary exhibit for the season. At
this time in the year, when the Importations for the spring
trade generally are large, and grqatly in excess of the ex
porta. The shipments of merohandiee fiom thia port
compose only about two-thirds of the aggregate value,
the other thiid being In specie. Thia haa preserved a
better balanca of trade, and served to keep exehange at
pretty low pointa. The supply of billa on the market h\a
not, however, checked materially the exportation of the
precioua metals, la consequence of the necessity existing
on the other side of the Atlantio, for remittaaces of ooia
and bullion from thii aide. It ia not money that ia ao
much wanted Ihroughout Europe. There 1a plenty of
eredit aid full confidence la the future, but apecie muat
be forthcoming to liquidate balances, and it muat be had
at any racrifice. The current of coin continuea to aet
strongly from London to the Continent, and the only
touree of aupply to fill the vacuum, ia the United States.
Fortunately we have it and ean>p?re it, for, in aiding and
protecting the beat customer and conaumer of our great
Btajle product*, we make the beat use of oar metallic

company:?
Simultaneously with th* Atlantic an! Pacific Railroad
Conpany's successful initiation in Ntw Vcrk, by the tak
ing r.f nearly half the entire capital stock in that city, we
hear of a powerful co-operative dcmomtration in behalf
of the came project on the part of several of the large
capital!' ts or the Pacific emporium. Our tnterpri inj
fellow citisen, Mr. Samuel Bianaan, has arranged for him ?
atU and ttbeis to seoure two millions of ttie itarao s'oik;
and there is r.o doubt but that other men of wealth ia
San Francisco will take large interests in the read. This
ia the very time and plac.i for such a demonstration.
We are glad to mention, in thia connection, another
movement recently ma^e by several energetio members of
the business community of 8*n Feanclsco towards orga
nizii g a company for tfce purpose of building steamers to
run between this port and China. The plan is indeed al
ready matured, and as we aru informed, a Urge portioe

conbtruct six .steamer*, of not leas than three thousand
Una burthen esoh, w ith Urge freight accommodatioa, to
make monthly tiepartures from San Franoisco and .Shang

closed for the geaton, at far as the sea board is concern -.1.
From this region the railroad will aontlnue to snpply the
line, Pniladelphia at. 1 neighborhood, during ths winter
searon The canal will be kept open as long ai the wea
ther will permit, but of courte that will not be long, as
i; was closed with ice yesterday morning, which the offl
eere of the oompany bad broken. All the boatmen re
elding In this county are tying ap their boats as they
return, and the few that are depattlag are on their way
home with their last carg ei for the season.

Showing an ice res ?e <f only 13,938 tone for the year,
from the three principal regions. The estimated increase
required for ihe yesr, it was supposed in the spring,
would be In the neighborhood of 400,000 tons. This was
considered a moderate estimate? but the high prices
whi h have prevailed for the last three months, both in
freight and ooal has cheeked the eonenmption very ma
terially, and dealer* purchase with extreme eaotioa. At
pretent the demand for eeal is very moderate, and the Eas
iness of the railroad baa decreased from fifteen or sixteen to
nine trains a day? and by the canal but little Is doing
A large portion of the operators are cartelling their bad
ness for winter, and a number will ceare mining entirely,
after tbis week, snd commence preparing their oolienee
for next year's mining.'
The coal trade from Kova Pool ia has beea affected In a
similar manrer to ours? freights ran np nearly doable
frr m Pic toe to Boston? and It was impossible to ralfll torn
trscts for coal.
The eoal market will not be supplied if tte w later ie
severe? and even if mild, all the eoal will be consumed,
leaving a hare market for the commencement of the
spring business. This will easnia an early demand for
eoal, which will also increase the production equal to the
vantsol tie market the ensuing tear. We tare the
ability to Increase the supply from this region very mate
rially, provided wo hav* an early demand at fair rates?
and in order to eeeara fair rates, the bast policy ia for the

The following atactics of the Iron trade in Great
Britain, which we take from the London Mining Journal ,
of November 19, will be interesting to most of oaf
readers
In an article uader the ahave title, which wa insert*'! ia
our journal of the 22d October, it was stated that the ex
ports of iron for the firft cljht months of the present yeafi
were at the rato of l,t70,000 tons por annum, which, 'loiuoted
from the estimated annual production of M>,U00 ton*,
would leave only 739,000 to^s for home oonmimplion, tho re
quirements for which we estimated at 1,400,000 tone. _W e
now ?uhj' in the particulars of the oxporta of iron tor the first
nine months of this year, wliioh are at the rate of 1,000,000
tons per ann.im, 1cm lug only 700,000 tone for home coasuuip*
tion. It lias been ropr?*ciited that our estimate of the hem#
cursumpti-n is below the aotnal quantity roqulrcd. In ad?
(lit ion to this, tho preat probability of an important moditioa
tlon in the French duitea on iron, leads us to expect a large
demand for tho enpply ot a nurket from whioh Britlak iron
has long been excluded Noroan we loaa ti&ht of the fact,
that the export of iroa has been progressively increasing;
enormously, in IVil it ex'*eoded 1H60 by IKKl/100 tons; ia
18.12 it exceeded )R5l bv 160,000 tons ; and in IK/3 it will ex
ceed lts52 by 4/0,000 tons. It home consumers and home
dealers do not look to these tacts, and aeenre their anpp!ic i,
It is pretty certain that speculators will reap the advantage
?f their remissness.

The company, of whloh Joseph Belinap, Esq., of tha
I'to Dtx 1'oundry, ia president, termed for too tnanuraj
tuxe of ccrrugated ir^n, for b.rt'er pla ea aad for all othec
purposes, ou the patent gra> ted to Riohar 1 Montgomery
La May, haa been fully organised and will soon be in aoti ? o
operation. The adTanugta derived from the e npliyoif at
of corrugated iron lnthw manufacture of bulltrs for ataata
purpotea are as folio irs: ? 1. Incn aae of and Improvement
in the beating surftee, and oorsequent economy of fnel,
or otherwise tbe obtalniag of the same effect from entail
er, cheaper, and lighter boilers. 2. Diminishes cost ia
consequence of abaence of stays, and facility of repiix
due to tbe same c .ute. 3. Foe'om from scale, in oen?
sequence of tbe bellows- like working of the eomgttions,
when exposed to oha&ges of temperature or of p*esaore.
4. Durability due to the absence of scale, and of tho
rrany s'ays aid the like lodging plieea for the same. 6.
Increased' stiffness or strength; aud 0. Detection of any
defecta ia the iron, wh'ch is sure to become apparent in
the manufacture. The great point of failure in our pre
sent forma of boiler ia in tbe collapalng of Oues. The
thickness o' metal cannot well be increased, aa in sucjI
case it scales and burns Of ell the accidents to steam
boats, which are so numerous on ear Auerican river?,
from fifty to seventy Ave per cent are due directly to tho
collapsing of flues. This source of danger may be eu
t rely obtiated by the corrugate! iron, while tbe metal
will at 'he same time be tbinaer and lighter.
The following test, applied in tbe government works at
Washington, is conclusive as regards strength, which U
the mot important item:?
'?Too cylinders, one plain the o'-her corrugated, each
20 inches lorg, VI itchr.' in 'Hamoter, and cce lighth oj
an inch thick. A frame work was prepared, which cov
ered the entire lecg.h of the cylinders and one third of
their diameter. Tti'a f'tme work was placed on top of
the cylinders, and loaded with pig iron. Tbe plain iroa
e>licd*r collapsed untfer a ? eight of 1,100 lbs. Tae cor
rugated fine was weighed with 17, COO lbn,, and rematned
several days under that preiaure withou' any deflection."
Corrugated iron, aud itj application to a variety of pur*
potes, can be seen at tbe office of the company, 35 WaU
street. It ia one of the moat important ana practical in
vention i of the age.
