SHANGHAI, 19th November (from Messrs. Whee lock & Co.'s report.)—Since writing on the 5th instant the only change in rates are those to New York, which have advanced to 27s. fl, and are likely to remain at that figure unless the London rate is greatly reduced which, from rumours afloåt, is highly probable; this latter move would be a very great pity as at the present moment any reduction cannot possibly benefit ship or shippers, but the native mer: chant will naturally score. We trust, however, be- fore the beginning of next week to hear that any dispute or misunderstanding which now prevails in the Conference has been settled amicably, because as we have already stated a fight of this sort will do nobody any good except to throw more profit into the natives' po ket. For New York vid Cape. —The Drumeltan clears to-day and leaves the berth vacant with' no prospect of filling it for sometime; shippers who prefer to send their cargo by this route will therefore. have to pay Hongkong rates, viz., about 19s.
