COLONIAL.

TEA.—The market is steady, but with a limited de-
mand.

SUGAR —Fall rates have generally been obtained, but
the public sales now in progress will better decide the
State of the market. There have been several purchases of
colonial on former terms, and refined, though quiet, has
ruled firm. There were landed last week at the several
docks and wharves and in London 2,913 hhds, 184 trs,
493 brls of West India, and there were taken for home
consumption 2,847 Wads, 310 trs, and 676 brie. The
stock is 23,502 hhds, 1,748 trs, and 5,856 brie.
COFFEE. - Holders of native Ceylon are firm, and the
supply is limited. More business has been done in plan-
tation at last week's rates. Mocha is in good demand.
.RlCE.—This article is firm, but dull.
Rum.—lmporters ask higher rates, and the market tends
upwards.
SALTPETRE.—There is scarcely any alteration in the
absence of sales.
TALLOW.—There has been an advance in the tallow
market. The demand has been strong, and following
upon the large deliveries of last week, and the evidence
we quoted in our statement of last Friday as to the pro-
bable supply and demand, it has produced a further ad-
vance to-day. The market was quiet on Saturday, and
but little business was done, prices being a little lower
than on Friday. To-day we opened firm, and since
'Change higher prices have been paid, and we close spot
new Y.C., 63s ; 1854, 62s fid ; all the year, 62st 6d ; De-
