FREIGHTS!
SHANGHAI,- From Messrs. Wheelock & Co.'s Report, dated June 18th:-Our Homeward Freight market is gradually improving as the tea season advances and we hope to see this continue although outside of tea there is not very much general
cargo to go forward. Coastwise:-Things are not
very brilliant on the coast and although there is not much loose tonnage in the North seeking em ployment we hear the Southern markets are in deplorable condition and any number of steamers are laying-up, a state of affairs which is bound to re-act on the North,
