MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London ?'ew -Price Current, Sept. 7.)

SUGAR.—To-day there was more confidence on the
part of importers of West India Sugar, the demand was
brisk for home trade pnrposes, and the rates obtained
61 per cwt. above those of Friday. Operations are 900
hogsheadi, including at auction 184 hogsheads Barba-
does, which went at a similar improvement; fine yellow
selling at 37s to 38s, midding to good 32s 61 to 333 63,
low 305 6d to 325; 100 hhds 60 tres Jamaica, brown

and 97 brls Tobago common yellow 31s 61 to 325, and
middling to fine brown 303 to 31s per cwt. The market
for Colonial Sugar closes under favourable circumstances.
REFINED.—To-day there was a reluctance to operate
in Refined Sugar for home consumption, brown lumps
were offered at 43s to 43s 63, and common to fine
grocery at 44s to 45s 6d per cwt. Crushed continues to
attract little attention from exporters.

MALTRITIErI3.—This afternoon several parcels of Mau-
ritius Sugar were sold privately, and at auction 2,117
bags were disposed of at stiffer rates—fine yellow went
at 35s to 36s 63, good 34s to 343 6J, mid 32s 6d to 33s
6d, low 31s to 325, good to fine brown 28s 6d to 30s 61,
and refininz sorts from 30a to 353 per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon there was an increased
demand for Bengal Sugar, and prices advanced 6d to Is
per cwt. At public sale 2,250 bags were so'd—Benares,
good white at 36s 61 to 375 6d, low to middling 345 fid
to 365, fine like Mauritius 345 to 36s per cwt. Of
Madras several parcels found buyers privately at stiffer
rates. At auction 210 bags went at stiffer rates, viz.,
at 36s 6d for good grocery. Orders are on the increase
for Penang, and 2,042 bags at public sale sold at very
full rate, low to middling soft yellow at 275 to 295, and
fine brown at 26s to 265 6d.

FOREIGN.-To-day privately little was done in Foreign
Sugar, still holders declined to sell under previous rates.
None was offered at auction, but 2,250 bags brown Per-
nambuco, and 1,200 chests yellow Havannah are declared.
MOLASSES.-Previous prices are required for West
India, yet little has been done; sales are only 160 puns
Antigua at 14 6d to 15s, and a small parcel St. Lucia 12s
to 12e 61. The rates demanded for Bengal and Mauri-
tius aro 123 to 12s 61, and 13s 6d to 15e for Cuba and
Porto Rico; at present few buyers are to be met with,
and supply is more plentiful. Of Tamarinds several
parcels have been sold, East India at 7s to 12s, and
West India 243 to 425. A good demand exists for
Honey, Jamaica 35s to 543, Cuba 34s to 40s, and Nar-
bonne 50s to 60s per cwt, but there is a more plentiful
supply.
COFFEE.-This afternoon Plantation Ceylon Coffee
was in excellent demand, and stiffer rites were obtained.

pesed;of; good mid to good realized 60s to 635, low mid to
mid 54s to 595, other sorts 503 to 53s 6d, small 48s to 495,
triage 44s to 48s. Of Costa Rica 1,000 bags went at
very full prices, good to fine ord at 45s 6d to 533. Of
Teliicherry 70 cases realized 563 for fine ord; but 450
bags Singapore Java were taken at 461 6d to 47s for
good ord, being above the value. Native Ceylon met
with more attention, and the parcels sold privately were
at 43s 6d to 44s 6d for good to fine ord. Mocha is wanted,
and at former rates there are few sellers.
TEA.-There continues to be a large home trade de-
mand for low to good common Congou, with several ex-
port buyers; rates rule firm at 8d to 811 per lb. The
better sorts are held with firmness, but have been ope-
rated in with caution-rather blackish leaf to blackish
leaf at 91 to 100, strong and Pekoe sorts lld to is 6d:

clean Pouchong at 5d to 71d, and there is no increase of
supply. Opertrions in Green have been upon a small scale
during the last few days, still lower rates are rejected
for good and fins qualities, but common and medium can
be obtained at a small reduction, supply being on the in-
crease. Prices rule as follow:-low to mid are is Oid
