dons are in consequence nominal.
RUAL IMAM/ V, and HOLLANDS.--The purchases of
Runt are chiefly by the Rectifiers, who purchase Leeward proofs at
2s. 4d. for money ; in other descriptions the only sales worth rum tioning are Jamaica, 30 to 31 over, landed in !WI, which are rather
cheaper in proportion than the new imports. Geneva is scarce,

good sold at Bid. to 9fid.
FRUIT.-138 butts and 29 caroteeli Currants were offered at
public sale on Wednesday, yet such is the state of the grocery
trade at present,' that though the conditions of the gale where
altered, the prompt being extended to two months, but very few
lots were sold ; the attempt to press sales is useless, and the best
resource the merchants have is to hold their goods until CCM&
deuce and the demand is revived.

CORN EXCHANGE, FRIDAY, FED. 3.
There has been a fair supply of Grain in general this week, and
the trade on the whole continues very dull. Fine Wheat barely
supporta Monday's quotation, unless for superfine qualities ; sza
Barley, Beans, and Pease are the turn lower. We have a good sr.
rival or Oats, both from our owo coast and Ireland, but the demard
not being over brisk, the sales are scarcely on so good terms. 1-.
other articles no variation worth notice.
