WEEKLY SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE

MARKETS:

MINCINO-LAIII, SATURDAY MORNING.
The colonial markets this week have shown very little
signs of improvement Sugar has been steady until to day,
wLen rather more dieptsition wu evinced by the buyers to
operate, and nearly the whole of the quantity offered was
disposed of at full rates. With regard to Coffee, however,
we Rays still to advise a considerable fall, the news of the rt.
salt of the Amsterdam sale, at which nearly all the Collett
was bught in, caused the market to become very flat, and a
gradual decline in rice has occurred; Native Ceylon is now
worth only 475. to 485., and sales of plantation have also
been made at similarly reduced quotations; a public sale of
the latter sort was held to-day, at which a small quantity of
the " new crop " was sold at fully 15s. per cwt. decline from
the highest point t f the market, though the rates obtained
were quite r quest to the prices which had been ruling pri-
vately. In Ittee there is not any alteration, and for Salt-
petre the demand is not quite so brisk. The Tea market
has been very quiet, and transsctione in both black and
green have been small. It is probable that, now the mail
has arrived, there will be more inquiry.
