MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

•
LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)

SUGAR.—The demand for Muscovades has been steady
and considerable, notwithstanding the general disappoint-
ment as to the reduction of duty, and the large parcels of
Mauritius Sugars thrown upon'the market for sale. The
estimated purchases last week were 2,100 hhds. and trs.
The stock of Miascovades is now 5,656 hhds. and trs. more
than last year ; the supply of Mauritius 62,708 bags more.
The deliveries of West India Sugars last week 2,850 hhds.
and trs., being nearly the same as in the corresponding
week of 1829. The deliveries of Mauritius are 6,987 bags
more. At the close of this day the estimated sales of Mus-
covades, including the Barbadoes at public sale, were 700
hhds. and trs. ; the prices are unvaried. The parcels of
low goods pressed upon'the market have occasioned a small'
decline on lumps, &c., about 70s. ; all other descriptions
fully support late prices, and the low single loaves and
Prussian lumps have been all cleared off the market. The
purchases of Crashed for the Mediterranean have been on
a limited scale.

FOREIGN Suasa.—The sales of Foreign Sugar have
been confined to small parcels ; good yellow Havannah
265. 6d. ; good white Pernams, 335. a 345.
Easx INDIA SUGAR.—The sales of Mauritius Sugar
last week were estimated at 15,000 bags; they went off
with great briskness, at full prices, brown 455. a 485.,
yellow low to mid. 465. a 535., good and fine 535. a 575, ;
1,586 bags Siam, low to good white 255. a 295., yellow
fine 225. 6d. a 235. 6d ; 1,716 bags Manilla withdrawn.
By public sale this forenoon 5,174 bags Mauritius Sugar ;
the whole was an inferior parcel, and went off heavily at
a reduction of 6d. to Is. per cwt. Average prices of
Sugar last week 235. lid.
COFFEE. —There was little alteration in the Coffee
Market last week ; the parcels of East India sold freely ;
good ord. mixed Batavia 325. 6d. and 335. ; the few lots
yellow Cheribon sold at very high rates. The British
Plantation Coffee went off rather freely, but without any
variation in prices. There were no public sales of Coffee
this day, and up to a late hour no purchases by private
contract were reported.
Ruin, BRANDY, AND HoLLawns.—Towards the close
of last week the request for Rum became animated ; about
1,500 puns., nearly all Leewards, were disposed of, proofs
at is. 10d. ; but no parcels now offer at that price ;
Brandy is very firm.—The latest price for Geneva is 28.6 d.
There has been a wild rumour circulated in the Market
about the local duty on Spirits in Scotland and Ireland
being raised to 3s. 6d., and that the duty on West India
Rum would be raised Is. ; we believe those measures have
been suggested to Government by a deputation from the
City, which is the only foundation for the report.
HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The Tallow Market
has been very dull, the prices are lower. In Hemp or Flax
there is no alteration.
CorroN.—The demand for Cotton last week was brisk
and extensive, but the Market is to-day more quiet.—
The purchases for the week ending last night- inc.lusive
consist of 11,000 Surat Sid. a ;80 Bengal 31d. a
4d. ; 30 Bowed 6d. ; 400 Barbadoes 6d. a 6id.
