PRODUCE.—MINCING-LANE, Half-part Two.—
The public sales of Sugar wousisted of 200 hhda. Barbed,* ,s
4,000 bags Mauritius, and 2,600 bags Bengal. The whole
has gone off heavily, at rather lower prices ; and the Re-
fined market has given way ad. to Is. Lumps, 625. to
Gds.—The Coffee sales show a continued indisposition in the
trade to purchase ; and it requires great firmness on the part
of importer* to sustain the market. The rate of sliscount on
this article is settled to-day at 8 per cent., but the deliveries
of both articles continue good.—Rice A very large portion of
the public sales was bong ht in, as buyers did not appear within
6d. to Is. of last week's prices; good Bengal cargo sold at
19s. to 19.. 6d.—Cinnamon: The quarterly sale has Me off
with more spirit than in several preceding sales. 1,300 bake
offered, and about half [trued buyers ; first sorts stild at
2s. 111. to 44.9 d, showing a decline of 3d. ; second quality,
2s. 11. to 3s. 3d. ; and thirds, 6d. to 2s. 7d., both descrip-
tions showing a slight advance.—lndigo steady. The quan-
tity advertised for sale on May 11 amounts to 14,200 chests.
lu other articles ne material alteration ; but the rate of dis-
count, and the general state of the money market, increase
I the anxiety both of the seller, and buyers.

in consequence of large parcels of English Tallow being
offered for sale. Petersburg Y. C. on the spot, 48s. All
the 3 ear delivery, 465. 6d. to 46e. 9d.

SOAP TRADE.—LoNDos, APRIL 26.—The prices
quoted front the country this weak, as wall u those current
in Lmdon, oblige the quotation of 60.. as the price of best
yellow Soap. Town lanais is very abundant at 475. to
475. Od. ; and the market for foreign Tallow is inactive,
with a steady terideney to lower prices. Price of Y.

vance of 3s. per qr. The supply of Barley was small, with •
good many buyers, at 3s. per qr. desrer. Oats and Beans

YARMOUTH, APRIL 24.-Oar supplies of corn continue
very moderate. Our prices for Wheat are about the same

week. The demand for France drew away our supplies, as
a large quantity is shipping this week for French ports,
which keeps the trade in an excited state. A few paresis of
Barley still appear, which sold on rather higher terms. In
other grain no alteration. Wheat, white, 81. s. to 86e. ; red,

nand for local consumption, either in this county or Perth•
shire. The few parcels brought fonvard obtained 2s. per qr
more money. Here to-day we had moderate supplies of all
kinds of grain, with a numerous attendance of buyers. The
demand was animated and prices rose 3s. per qr. on Wheat;
IL to 2. per qr. en Barley ; and la. to Is. 64. per qr. on

CATTLE, &c.—BaDFoBD FM IL—Of fat Beasts
there was rather more than an average quantity, which
fetched from 6d. to 60. per lb. There was • large supply of
store Sheep. Trade dull, but many sold at a small abate.
meat In the demands of the sellers. In fat Sheep, towards
the close of the day, there we, much business done, prices
varying front 60. to 7d. out of the wool. A short supply of
good Horses, at high price., but few sold ; those of a middling
description were of but little value.
Boner, Aram 241.—The fat Bouts were good in qua-
Sty; the beet realised les. 6d. I 6 Its, per score; middle g,

which sold at from 9s. 61. to 101. per score. The pens of
fat Sheep were about the usual quantity ; the best 2 and
4-tooth 014,0:were made be. 4d. to be. Be. per at. of 81bs. ; good
Tegs and Wetkers, not quite so fine in quality, Is. to 6s. 4d. ;

by one o'clock. A fine lot of superior Lambs sold at about
9.1. per lb., or 30s. each ; some others, not so large, made
to 265. Fat bacon Hogs are getting very scarce; 12a.
per score is the prkv now asked ; small Porkers, 11.. 6d.
Lean Beast, Cows, and Calves, sold slowly, aa did store Hogs.
Ewes and Lambs, for stock, were in better demand, at a
trifling advance.
LINCOLN FAlR—There we. only s very small show of
Horses, and, as usual, first-rate animals obtained high
priors. Capital Cart Horses fetched high prices. The great
buyers now scour the country prior to the fair, and buy up
all the meat valuable Horses before the fair commences.

A very large number of Sheep was penned; the quantity
being variously estimated at from 3.5,100 to 50,000, and pro-
bably the latter number is nearer the truth. The supply of
fat stock was but small, and was bought up readily at very
high rates. The sellers asked large prices at the commence-
ment, but as the buyers held off, the prices were brought
down. The ver7 best description of Hop made about 50s.
per head; for fur aorta the prices ranged from 425. to 475.
