SHANGHAI, 9th May (from Messrs. Wheelock & Co.'s report. Our homeward freight market has again esumed an appearance of activity after the recent dull months of winter trade. For London a satis.actory advance is noticeable, while the demand for space in
rk steamers, riû Suez, has been, if anything, in excessf what they have been able to book. Still a very much reater improvement must be forthcoming, as an enormous quantity of cargo wil be required to enable the many June loaders, as per list below, to give a similar report. Rates are changed except för trans-Pacific carriers. Coastwise.-There is little of interest to report. In the absence of outside ve sels seeking employment business is practically confined to the local companies, who consuently control rates. From Hanków for London. The Glaucus passed Woosung on the 25th inst bound for Foochow, where she will in all
p10- bability complete her loading. In addition to a large engagement of brick tea she procured some 2,000 tons new teas. This, Lowever, does not seem to have affected the prospects of the Danfa, which from Intest accounts is likely to engage her full re- quirements in Hankow. For New York rit Cape No fresh charter has been effected for want o
a suit- able vessel; cargo is scarce and procurable in small lots only.
