SHANGHAI, 1st March.-(From Messrs Wheelock & Co.'s report)-We have no improvement to report as regards export business homewards, and there seems to be but little inducement for steamers to take the berth for London, while for New York there is hardly anything offering beyond a few small ship. ments, which the regular supply of tonnage is more than sufficient for. There is likewise little offering for sailers from here, but after the trade with northern ports is resumed onos more, the first steamers being advertised to leave here on the 3rd inst. for Tientsin, business probably will improve, and exports present a more cheerful appearance. Rates of freight are:- Shanghai to London, P. & O. S. N. Co., O. S. S. Co., Ben Line, C. M. S. N. Co., Glen Line, Shire Line 40s. per ton general cargo; 158. waste silk; 50s. tea; Shanghai to Northern Continental ports 42s. 6d. per ton general cargo; 458. waste silk. Above rates are
