CHINA.
We have ndvices from China to July 29tb, from which we learn that four vessels had sailed for the colonies with teas prior to that date, and four were then loading. At Foochoo a large business bai been transacted in congous, principally of the second crop. Prices have ruled very irregularly, but on the whole show a decline. Shipments will probably be about equally divided between the United Kingdom and the colonies. Settlements in souchongs have taen continued at rates fully equal to the previous scale of prices. The stock is now reduced almost entirely to undesirable parcels, or those for which the teamen demand extravagant rater Sales durirj the fortnight were m r le at 7 to 9 taels for dust and broken leaf, 10 to 18 for ordinary to good common, and 19 to 29 for Jight flavoury to me^'um Kysow kinds.
