WEEKLY SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE

MARKETS.

MINCING-LANZ, SATVIIDAT MORNING.
In the colonial markets this week theca has been a detains
in the prices of nearly all descriptions of produc+, and only a
limited arnsunt of business has been transacted. The sales
of sugar at the commencement were rather large, and
although importers generally submitted to a further reduc-
tion of 61. per cwt., they ekes unable to dispose of the total
quantity offered ; and the market has since continued dull.
b 1 specula ive pastels of plantation Ceylon Ceffits
have been realised both at auction ►nd pivately, at pricee
which show a fall about 2s. upan those current this
day week, and the na•ive descriptions which we
limo last quoted at 51s. to 52.., now rule at 46e.
to 465. 6d. per cwt., at which ewes about 400 bags,
recently imported, met with purchasen this day at auction.
Several percels of foreign have been brought forward, for
which there did not appear to be any buyers, and they were
baught in. In Spice the only alteration to notice has oc-
curred in Cassia, which has receded in value to the extent
of Ss. per cwt. Some sales of Saltpetre have been made at a
reduction of 61. to 9d. per cwt. The Tea market has been
better supplied this week, and consequently more businces
hu beau done. The chief sales have been of Congou, at
9jd. to 101., and scented Teas at former prices, and Canton
