The price is not yet fixed, but we Expect it will be low as the Crop is large. The Number of Privateers we have now from this place gives us great reason to Expect Prise goods of all sorts will be sold very reasonably here.

G&C Exchange to London, 85 per Cent Logwood, at £12 per Ton Martinico Sugar, from 2d to 7d Ditto Coffee, from 7d to 73/4 d Ditto Cotton, from 15d to 16d Ditto Cocoa, from 8d to 9d Prise ships are sold reasonable per the Packet, Capt.
