SHANGHAI, 8th October (from Messrs. Wheelock & Co.'s report.)-Since our last issue no change ha- occurred in the matter of freights, and rates remain steady both for London and New York; for the former port cargo is still going forward in very moderate quantities, whereas for the latter a fairly large business has been done both by steam and sail, the low rate of thirty shillings, no doubt, has been an inducement to shippers. Sail rates for New York are now the lowest we have seen for some time and it will be extraordinary if the only vessel open for cargo does not receive good support. Coasting.— Although there has been very little improvement, the demand for tonnage is perhaps a little better, especially from the Yangtsze ports to the South, and altogether this trade has a brighter tendency. Now as we are nearing the closing season for the northern porta, we cannot but anticipate more enquiry for tonnage at enchanced rates. Rates of freight are:---- London, by Conference Lines, general cargo 3ūs.; -waste silk 408.; tea 40s.; Northern Continental ports,

by Conference Lines, general cargo 35s.; waste silk 40s; tem 40%.; New York, by Conference Lines, general cargo 30s.; tea 30s.; New York vid London, by Conference Lines, general cargo 40s; tea. 458. ¦ Boston vid New York, by Conference Lines, general cargo. 40s.; tea 40s.; Philadelphia, by Conference Lines, general cargo 40s.; tea 40s. Above rates are subject to a deferred return, as per Conference circu- lar. London, by German mail, Shell, and Rickmers' Lines, general cargo 81s. 6d. net; Hamburg, by German mail, Shell, and Rickmers' Lines, general cargo: 318. 6d. net; New York, by German mail, Shell, and Rickmers Lines, general cargo 40s. leas 10 per cent.; Havre direct, general cargo 82s. 6d. net; Genon, tallow 32s. 6d.; general cargo 32s. 6d. net; Marseilles, tallow 32s. 6d.; general cargo 32s. 6d. net. 428. 6d. per ton of 20 cwt, for above three ports.
