B. I'. Suo.t —Tbe market has been dull thmtighosit the
week, hut good strong Sugars worth 80s. to s4s. still bring,
from their comparative scarcity, the full prices lately quoted ;
on the other hand, low brown descriptions may he bought a
little cheaper that; last week. 'Die stuck is steady equalised
with that of last year at this date, by the considerable deli-
veries since Christinaa. The surplus is only 66 casks, and
prices about the same. 'Foreign Sugars of the finer qualities
have been in better demand, and obtained higher prices.
The stock of Havannali Sugars in import warehouses at this
port is 3,387 chests.
There is no alteration in the prices of W. I. Co► Bet this
week, nor have we hail any public salts of that article. The
demand by private contract has been moderate for all de-
seri pitons, and holders do not whew way anxiety to sell, unless
at an advance. The stock is 1,027 toots less than at this
time last year, and the present prices of ordiumy Jamaica
about 20s. more. _

A public sale of B. P. Sugar on Monday last brought an
advance of ls. per cwt ; but the market has sitter been flat,
mid prices have declined 2e., which occasions a reduction in
our quotations of this day sennight of Is. per cwt. For
Foreign descriptions we have some inquiry, though 110 pur-
chases have been made. The demand for Coffee, particularly
from the grocers, has been more animated during the last
few days, and ap advance of 3s. a 5.. has been realized ; or-
dinary Jamaica has brought 91s. a 945., fine ordinary 955. a
965., middling 995.; ordinary to fine ordinary dark Dutch
95s to 99a , middling to good middling Ms. a 1055.; 5410
bags Domingo, ordinary to good with colour, 955. a AN. ;
and at these prices the owners continue tiros for what is offer-
ing in the market. 200 tierces of good to fine new Carolina
Rice were offered at public auction yesterday, when 70
tierces were taken by the grocers at 411 s. 100 puncheons
Jamaica Rams have been sold at 3.. sd. per gallon 16 0. P.,

and Is. a 2s. advance has been paid; Montreal Pots have
brought 595., New York 605., and Boston 625.; Pearls are
held at 635. a as.
There has been a fair demand this week for Tobacco from
the manufacturers, as well as for shipment, and from 80 to

. .
100 hhd.. of low and ordina►y Kentucky. and Georgia. have
been sold at 51d. to std. per lb.; and there are now very few
of this description to be met witb. A parcel of 200 hbd..
American sowing Flaxseed has been disposed of at 105.. per
bbd. on speculation ; the holders generally, however, are
not inclined to sell at present, in the expectation of obtain-
ing mach higher prices when the sowing season commences.
The arrivals of Turpentine have been larger this week than
for some time past, being 4,200 brim. ; yet the stock was pre-
viously so small, that they have hail little affect in prices,
and 1,400 brio. have been sold at from 17s. ILL to IN.. per
cwt. according to quality. Tar continues in fair demand,
and last week's prices are ste:idily maintained, 200 brls. Ca-
rolina having been disposed of at Ns. per brl. The sales in
Quereitron Bark are very limited, but the holders .hew no
disposition to give way a small parcel of fair Philadelphia
realised 22.. per cart.

drawn al 225. per cwt.; 40 tons Brimstone brought forward
at the same tinie, were sold at 261. per ton, besides which
nothing of importance has hero ehnie in this article. Tallow
was in much request early in the week, and SO.. per cwt.
was paid for Yellow Candle, but is now dull again. Palm
Oil is going off rather store freely at 58/. per tun, and the
holder. are now asking hilt. per tan.
