PRODUCE.

MINCING LANE', Half-past Two. —The Refined
Market has opened heavily, but without alteration in prices.
Rice has been in fair demand, and holders ask rather higher
prime. Tallow remains firm. Oils continue steady at our
quotations.
ANTWERP MARKETS : Weekly SRLOWISSy.—An nn-
tumid and well sustained activity reigned in the Antwerp
market, during the week ending wt. Saturday last, in the
major part o, the principal articles. The last public sale of
Coffee in Holland had a favourable influence, and
some operations in Java, say about 2,500 boles resulted,
with an improvement upon previous current rates ;
Java golden, quoted 42 to 47. The transactions in St.
Domingo and Brazilian were but on a limited scale on
meonuot of the feebleness of stocks. In first bands no Bra-
zilian was left.

For Hides there was a good and regular demand, although
no particular variations can be noticed in the quotations.
The Pales amounted to nearly 11.000 hides, the greater part
from Buenos Ayr(' and Monte Video ; the remainder from
Valparaiso, California, Rio Grande, and Pernambuco.
Bu•iness was more animated in Cotton, owing to the
favourable advice' from foreign markets, among others
from Liverpool, from whence a further ripe of Id. was
announced. These circumstances had excited the attention o
buyers, and for the last two days we have to notice the sale
of 1203 bales.of United States Cotton. East India Caton
was also inquired Pm, but without any transaction of conse-
quence taking place.
Rice commanded a good current sale, with a tendency of
prices always upwards; the quotations of to-day (the sth)
show a materi:ii improvement upon those of last week. 300
tierces of Cardina, and 2,600 Wes of various kinds, changed
hands. . .

The transactions in raw Sugar were limited, considering
the small quantity offered; about 1,500 boxes of Havana
white only were done at the current rates ; in refused 70,000
kilogrammes, lumps and loaves, for exportation.
Ehony Woods have been greatly seught after; many
Nrcels of Acajon, Polizzandn, and Gazac found buyers.
Por Campeche woods there was an equal demand ; 100,000
kilo, were disposed of out of stock, and 200,000 kits. more of St.
Domingo fur delivery ; the prices, however, were not affected
by these various transactions.
Woale Oil is rather better held ; 200 hectolitres from the
South were sold out of stock, and 2:10 more for delivery.
In oils for manufacturing purposes, the rale of 100 hectolitres
of Gallipoli may be reported, at former currency.
Potash and dye stuffs remain quiet ; in Tobaccos:nothing
to be noticed.

In Grains huffiness has been very animated; the quantity
of wheat on place, which ha changed hands within the last
tied days, is equal to the cnornmous number of 30,000 bee-
t ni-res. Oats also have been the object of important affairs,
hut the total quantity could not be so well ascertained, as the
dealine were so much more divided. Barley entered for
little in this commercial movement.
