SHANGHAI, 11th October (from Messrs. Wheelock & Co.'s report.)-Our market presents quite a lively aspect compared with that of the previous fortnight, a strong enquiry for tonnage for New York having set in. For that port a steady service of steamers has been supplied and each vessel procured more than she required, but the latter part of the period under review rates advanced 5s. for tea, which has to a small extent curtailed shipments. There has also been a fair business done for London and the mails and other regular liners have fared wall. Rates of freight are:-From Shanghai to London, hy Confer- ence Lines, general cargo 40s.; waste silk 458.; tea 50s.; Northern Continental ports, general cargo 428. 6d.; waste silk 45s.; tea 50s.; New York, general cargo 40s.; tea 40s.; New York riú London, general cargo 50s.; tea 50s.; Boston, general cargo 52s. 6d.; Philadelphia, general cargo 60s. Above rates are subject to a deferred return, us per Conference circu- lar. London, by Shell Line, general carge 40s. less 10 per cent.; Hamburg, general cargo 35s. net; New York, general cargo 40s. less 10 per cent.; Havre direct, general cargo 37s. Gd. Let; Genoa, tallow 35s; general cargo 40s. net; Marseilles, tallow 358.; general cargo 37s. 6d. net. 458. per ton of 20 cwt. for above three ports. New York, by sail 25s; New York, by Pacific Lines, tea 1 cent gold. Coast rates are: Chinkiang to Canton, 15 candareens, nominal; Moji to Shanghai, $1.20 per ton coal nominal; Nagn- saki to Shanghai, $1.10 per ton coal nominal. No disengaged vessel in port.
