lSaur has
For Coffee an excellent demand at ls. to 2s. per cwt.
higher priees. Tea in steady request for ordinary
qualities, but fine more difficult of sale. In Rice no
alteration to notice, but a fair business done at steady
prices. Rum has brought full rates. In Palm Oil a
further advance. Tallow in limited request, without
change in prices ; P.Y.C., 595. to 60s. per cwt. To-
DAY, there has been a steady market for Sugar, and a
strong speculative inquiry has prevailed, resulting in
the sale of 900 mats and 200 tons Mauritius, to arrive,
the latter chiefly at 28s. 6d ; 3,500 bags Pernams on
the spot at 275. 9d. to 28s. 3d., with 2,600 bags, to
arrive, chiefly at 28s. for brown, and 295. 3d. per cwt.
for low white, all in bond. 200 tons Cuba Muscovado
Molasses, for arrival, have been purchased at 235. per
cwt., and 40 puncheons Porto Rico Rum, on the spot,
at s. 7d. per gallon. There continues a very good
inquiry for Coffee, nearly 800 bags Rio being reported
at 395. 6d. for low to 455. per cwt. The Tea market
is not active, owing to the shortness of supplies
available for the wants of the trade. There
has been an excited inquiry for Rice, and the
transactions are extensive, comprising 8800 bags
Bengal at 15s. 6d. to 16s. 4d., with 50 tons broken,
to arrive, at 145., 28,500 bags Arracan, chiefly old,
from 12s. to 12s. 9d., and 350 tons, to arrive, at 12s. 9d.
to 12s. 101 d. per cwt. At auction, GO tons Jamaica
Logwood brought £5 12s. 6d., a small lot of Jamaica
Fustic £5 ris. 6d., and 25 tons Nicaragua Wood £l3
per ton. 150 tons Calcutta Linseed, for arrival, are
reported at 735. per quarter, c. f. and i.

WooL.---There has been a fair business doing in
Levant and Mediterranean Wools, but the smallness
of stocks continues to be a great drawback to any
large operations. Several sales of Egyptian Wool
have been made, to arrive, at very firm prices, and the
market is barely supplied with this description, as well as
the finer classes of Turkey Wools, which are still much
wanted for the army orders now in progress. Donskoi
is also rather more inquired for ; but, although stocks
are very light, we cannot quote any improvement in
this description. The imports for the week are 1,562
bales Peruvian, 1,360 East India, 616 Mediterranean,
220 Portugal, 146 Iceland, 88 Buenos Ayres, 57 Aus-
tralian, 8 Jamaica, 18 Scotch, 17 Irish, and 10 Coast-
wise; total, 4,101 bales,
