and for which higher prices have again been realised; all other de-
scriptions are firm, at the quotations of butt week. The Refired

scarcity of goods; the late advance is firmly maintained. Mo.
lasses are 214. fkl. The inquiries after Foreign Sugar continue;

vanced rapidly: St. Domingo. of fair quality, sold at 675. fid.,
