MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

_.-------
(From the London New Price Current, Aug. 27.)
SIIGAR.—To-day there was less desire on the part of
importers of West India Sugar to realize, and a fair
home trade demand was experienced. Operations are
1,537 hhds, including at auction 50 hhds, 20 tres, and
200 brls Barbadoes, which sold at 29s to 303 for brown,
at 31s to 34s for low to mid yellow, and good mid 343
6d to 35sper cwt. Operations for the week are 4,482 hhds.
REFINED.—To-day refined Sugar was in excellent de-
mand for home consumption, and rates closed with firm-
ness; brown lumps at 43a to 43s 6d, and low to fine
grocery 44s to 45s 6d. Crushed Sugar attracts little
attention for shipping, and prices incline downwards.
MAIIRITIIIS,—This afternoon a fair business was con-
cluded in Mauritius at full rates, and holders are less
inclined to press sales. At auction 2,565 bags were sold
at 303 6d to 33s for low to mid yellow, and .mid to fine
brown 27s 6d to 30s.

EAST INDIA.—This afternoon there was a better de-
mand for Bengal privately, and at former rates some
parties are not inclined to sell. None was off,red at
auction. Of Madras 2,000 bags were sold at 25s to 26s
for soft brown, at 26s 6d to 31s for yellow, and at 31s
63 for low to mid grocery, these are very fall rates.
Penang, 1,000 bags realized 28s 6d to 33s for low to fine
soft yellow, bat since lots are taken in.
FOREIGN.—To-day floating cargoes or duty paid par-
cels of Foreign Sugar attracted little attention for the
home or foreign markets, and there are sellers upon
rather lower terms. None on offer at public sale.
MOLASSES.—There is a reluctance to operate in West
India, and supply is on the increase, Barbadoes and An-
tigua can be obtained at 14s to 150, St. Kitts and Lucia
123 to 13s 6d per cwt. The prices required for Bengal
and Mauritius are 12s to 12s 63, Porto Rico and Cuba
13s 6d to 15s, yet purchases have been trifling, and
several parcels on offer. Tamarinds are in better re-
quest, West India as 233 to 40s, and East India 7s to 12q.
For Honey orders are larger, and prices for Jamaica rolo
at 353 to 545, Cuba 32s to 40s, and Narbonne 503 to 603
per cwt. . _

C0e0,5..-The dem-nd is on the increase for West
India. Sales privately of Trinidad, good to fine red
made at 37s to 445, low to mid 33s to 363, grey 293 to
335, Grenada 28 t to 345, and superior 35s to 363 per cwt.
Foreign finds a more ready sale, and holders have con-
fidence; Bahia and Para realize 253 to 263., and G uay-
quill 33s to 343 6d per cwt. Only 26G bags Trinidad
have been submitted to public sale this week.
COPIPEE*-This afternoon previous terms ware well
sustained for Plantation Ceylon, the demand being brisk,
chiefly for home-trade purposes. At auction 170 casks
and 200 barrels and begs were sold; mid to good at 57s
to 653, fine ord to low mid 50s to 563, end triage 44s to
48s. There is rather more doing in Native Ceylon, and
holders are firm at former terms. At auction 300 bags
sold at 43s 6rl for good ord. Of Tellteherry 630 cases
were in part disposed of at 493 to 533 for good to fine
ord, being the full worth. Of Mocha 133 half bales
realised 763 to 803 6cl for mid to good, showing no varia-
tion in value.
RICE.-To-day previous rates were barely supported
for Bengal Rice, still 7,919 bags 1,000 pkts at auction
were chiefly sold, good to fine white 103 to lOs 6d, low
to mid 9s to 9s 6d. Of Sago 626 chts realised 17a 6d to
183 6d for medium grain.
TEA.-To-day there was a fair spirit in the biddings
at the public sales of Tea, and full rates were obtained
for both black and green. Of 13,000 pkg 3 offered 4,990
found buyers, mad good sound common Congou realised
81 per lb.
SPICES.-Pimento is less wanted. Of 700 bgs at auc-
tion not above one half found buyers-good quality at
sid to sid, low mid and mid sid to sid, and common
sid per lb. There is no further decline for Pepper; but
at 3:ld to sd, Batavia 3.1 d to 3. Male-
all
privately operations have been small for par-
posee-Allepy
bar 3id to 44d, Sumatra and Penang aid to 3irl

sold at 4id for heavy. White is wanted, at present few
parcels are on offer, and the rates paid privately are from
61,d to 9d for common to fine. A fair business has been
concluded in Cayenne at Gd to 10d, and fine is to is 3d.
Pod Pepper is not pressed for sale; at present little is do-
ing, and prices rule at 48s to 58s for low to mid, good to fine
60s to 703 per cwt. Of Nutmegs supply is not adequate
for the demand, and prices aro still improving-low to
mid brown selling privately at 2s 3d to 24 9d, good 2s 10d
