THE

penetralia of the cabins and cabooses; and a few men-of-
war boats tugged slowly about from ship to ship of the
squadron, squashing through the swell, which at times
was tolerably unpleasant. As the men-of-war lay nicely in
line at nearly equal distances from each other, with yards
pointed to the wind'e eye, and all flags flying, the river,
in spite of the rain and storm, looked extremely pictu-
resque. Sailors were basily engaged aloft in laying out the
ropes for manning the yards, to the wonder of the Bel-
gians, who did seem to take a large view of the geaeral
utility or beauty of such a proceeding. Nor could they
understand manceavres on ship-board, which resulted
after the performance by the boatswain and his mates
of very shrill pieces on the whistle ; but on the.
whole they agreed the sight was " joli et fort beau,"
and only wanted more cannon in view and in fire
to be well contented for their pains. The yacht pre-
sented little appearance of life, except among the men en-
gaged in the ship's duty, nor could any of the illustrious
party on board be distinguished on deck. About half-past
eight o'clock the roll of the drums at the end of the line
of infantry, followed by a flourish of trumpets, announced
the arrival of the Ring, whose carriage, preceded by oue
outrider and followed by two equipages, drove rapidly up
to the end of the space cleared in front of the larding
place. The Ring, who was attended by a general officer,
on alighting was received by the Governor of the Pro-
vince. M. Jeicheetton, the Cemmandant of the district,
the oilleer commanding tiro troops, the Burg
o
Count de Moorkerke, Ste. Although it was rininmasta er

His barge, pulled by fourteen stout rowers, lay off the

swarmed with men, and in an instant they were lying

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current, Aug. 13.)
SUGAR.-15-day a good demand was experienced for
West India Sugar; yet grocers and refiners were enabled
to purchase at priees equal to those of Friday last. Ope-
rations are 803 hhds, &c., including at auction 55 hhds,
18 tee, and 143 brls Barbadoes, which went at fall rates;
brown at 30s to 31s. and low to mid yellow 31s 6d to
34s 6d; 25 brls St. Kitts, fair brown 31s to 31s 6d per
cwt.
REFINED.—To-day large parcels of Refined Sugar
were taken for home consumption, still there are sellers
of brown lumps at 44s to 445 6d, and low to fine grocery
at 44s 63 to 46s 6d per cwt. Crushed Sugar met with
little attention for shipping, and easier rates are acespted.
MAURITIUS.—This efterneon there was no public sale
of Mauritius Sugar, but privately several parcels were
disposed of at full rates. Public sales will take place
next week.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon several purchases were
made privately in Bengal and Madras Sugar, yet no ad-
vance was established. At auction 700 bags of the
former sold at 39s for fine grainy yellow.
FOREIGN.—To-day operations were unimportant in
Foreign Sugar, still duty paid parcels or floating cargoes
were not to be obtained under previous rates. At auction
90 hhds and 40 brls St. Croix were sold, fine yellow at
403 to 42a 6d, and ord to good 35s 6i to:3Bs 6d per Cwt.
MOLASSES.-01 West India only small parcels were
disposed of, and supply is on the increase. Prices for
Antigua and Barbadoes rule at 14s to 15s, St. Kilts and
Lucia 123 to 13s 6d. In Bengal and Mauritius pur-
chases have been trifling at 123 to 12s 6d, Porto Rica and
s.3uha 14s 6d to 15s 6d. Tamarinds less in request,
end more desire is evinced to sell West India at 24s to
40s, East India 7s to 12a, but supply is not more plenti-
ful. For Honey there is yet several buyers, Jamaica at
355 to 403, Cuba 32s to 40s, and Narbourne 50s to 60s

season.
COME.—This afternoon there was no improvement
in the demand for Native Ceylon by private treaty. At
