WEEKLY SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE

MARKET.

MINCING-LANE, SATURDAY MORNING.

The heaviness in the Colonial markets which we have
noticed for the put two or three weeks continues, and there
is scarcely any article of produce offering which has not
more or less been influenced unfavourably. The importers
of Sugar have shown rather mere disposition to realise,
and have submitted to a decline of 6,1 per cwt. There have
been:same inquiries for plantation Ceylon Coffee,tand several
parcels have changed hands, but without Improvement in
prices ; the native sorts were sold at the close of last week
at 635., and rose at the commencement of this week to
635. AL to 64r., but have since receded, and the quotation is
now 625. to 62r. 6d. per cwt. Tn. quarterly Cinnamon
sales were held on the 4th instant, when of 3,300 bales
offered, about 2,600 bal^e found buyers, the prices
obtained being much more satisfactory thin was
generally expected, first qualities sold at last week's rates
to ad. advance ; but the second and third sorts. of which
there was a large proportion, went at a decline of 2 I. to 3d.
per lb. A sale of 4,000 chests Cassia is advertised for the
14th inst. There has not been any public sales of Rice,
Saltpetre, or Pepper, and we are without transactions to
notice. The quarterly Indigo sales, for which upwards of
14,300 chests are declared, will commence on Thursday
next. In the Tea market a fair bu.iness has been done at
former rates, principally in the medium coogou of the late
imports, also in Canton young hysons and gunpowders.
Common congous are heavy of sale.
