MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London Nero Price Current, Aug. 27.)
Stasa.—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 aro
1,537 hhds, including at auction 50 hhds, 20 trcs, and
200 brls Barbadoes, which sold at 29e to 30s for brown,
at 31s to 34s for low to mid yellow, and good mid 343
6d to 35s per cwt. Operations for the week are 4,482 hlids.
REFINED.—To-day refined Sugar was in excellent de-
mand for home consumption, and rates closed with firm-
ness; brown lumps at 43s to 433 6d, and low to fine
grocery 44s to 45s 6d. Crushed Sugar attracts little
attention for shipping, and prices incline downwards.
MAURITIUS.--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 30s 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 offered at
auction. Of Madras 2,000 bags were sold at 25s to 26s
for soft brown, at 26s 6d to 31a for yellow, and at 31s
6d for low to mid grocery, these are very full rates.
Penang, 1,000 bags realized 28s 6d to 33s for low to fine
soft yellow, but 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 15s, St. Kitts and Lucia
12s to 13s 6d per cwt. The prices required for Bengal
and Mauritius are 12s to 12s 6d, Porto Rico and Cuba
13s 6(1 to 15s, yet purchases have been trifling, and
several parcels on offer. Tamarinds are in better re-
quest, West India at 23s to 406, and East India 7s to 12s.
For Honey orders are larger, and prices for Jamaica rule
at 353 to 54a, Cuba 32s to 403, and Narbonne 503 to 603
per cwt.

Cocoas-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 365, grey 293 to
333, Grenada 283 to 345, and superior 35e to 35a per cwt.
Foreign finds a more ready sale, and holders have con-
fidence; Bahia and Para realm') 25i to 265., and Guay-
quill 33s to 34s 6d per cwt. Only 266 bags Trinidad
have been submitted to pnblic sale this week.
COFFEE-This afternoon previous terms wore well
sustained for Plantation Ceylon, the demand being brisk,
chiefly for home-trade purposes. At auction 170 casks
and 200 barrels and bags were sold; mid to good at 57s
to 655, fine ord to low mid 503 to 565, sad triage 44s to
48s. There is rather more doing in Native Ceylon, and
holders are firm at former terms. At auction 300 begs
sold at 433 6d for good ord. Of Tellicherry 630 cases
were in part disposed of at 49s to 53s for good to fine
ord, being the full worth. Of Mocha 133 half bales
realised 76s to 80a 6cl for mid to good, showing no varia-
tion in value.
Rim-To-day previous rates were barely supported
for Bengal Rice, still 7,919 bags 1,000 pkts at auotion
were chiefly sold, good to fine white 103 to lOs 6d, low
to mid 93 to 9s 6d. Of Sago 626 chts realised 17s 6d to
18s 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 pkgs offered 4,990
found buyers, tied good sound common Congou realised
8k per lb.
SPICES.-Pimento is less wanted. Of 700 bgs at auc-
tion not above one half found buyers-good quality at
54d to 50, low mid and mid sid to sd, and common
51c1 per lb. There is no further decline for Pepper; but
privately operations have been small for all pur.
poses-Allepy at 31d to sd, Batavia 3-1 d to 3i. Mala-
bar aid to 4/fd, Sumatra and Penang 30 to 3id
per lb. Of 300 bags Malabar at auction a part only
sold at 40 for heavy. White is wanted, at present few
parcels are on offer, and the rates paid privately are from
Sid to 9d for common to fine. A fair business has been
concluded in Cayenne at 6d to 10d, and fine is to Is 3d.
Pod Pepper is not pressed for sale; at present little is do-
ing,
