COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MINCING LANE.—THIS DAY.
SW/AlL—The public sale of 2,500 bags of Bengal went
off steadily to-day. The result of the week shows a slight
advance upon prices, and a fair amount of business done,
particularly in West India; but importers have not brought
forward public sales of any extent in Mauritius or
Bengal. A very large amount of business has been done
by private contract in foreign. Several cargoes of Has
vannah sold afloat, deliverable in Continental ports, and also
parcels landed for our refiners' use. Refined quoted at
last week's prices, rather dull of sale. Grocery lumps, fair
to fine, 475. to -lbs. Gd.
COPPEC—The quantity offered in public sale during tho
week has not been large, and prices have been supported.

at 375. to 385., the present quotations. Reporters continue
on the market for coloury plantation Ceylon.
TEl.—Since the arrival of the China mail importers
have withdrawn large parcels which were previously on the

MARK-LANE.--THIS DAY.
The few parcels of English Wheat at market this morn-
ing were sold at the extreme quotations of Monday last.
The arrivals of foreign Wheat have been large, 22,240 qrs.
have come to hand during the week, and the weather
having become warm and forcing, there was not so much
life in the trade as there was at the beginning of the week;
holders, however, were firm, and the advance noted on
Monday was fully supported.
In consequence of a general advance in the value of Flour
throughout France, there was a more free sale for the ar-
ticle today, and, in many instances, Is. more money was
obtained for good qualities.
Barley, Beans, and Peas were firm, at former rates.
Choice qualities of Oats maintained the late advance, but
ill-conditioned cargoes were Gd. to Is. cheaper.
