MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

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

SUGARS.—The Sugar Market on Tuesday was thrown
into a state of great agitation and confusion by the unex-
pected announcement of a complete change in the duties.
In the mean time all business is suspended. About 200 to
300 hhds. of fine Sugars have only been sold, and these
descriptions cannot be affected by the change of duty. The
practical effect on the Market will be to raise the price of
low Sugar, and reduce the price of the fine. The holders
of low brown have withdrawn their Sugars from Market.
The estimated sales this week 400 hhds. ; the holders
state the Market to be nominally Is. a 2s. higher for the
brown and mid. qualities. In Refined Goods there has
been considerable business, but with little alteration in
pricee. The Refiners have been occupied by the change
in the duty on raw Sugars, and the fears entertained that
the bounties on export will be reduced. There is also a
rumour that Refiners will work Sugars in bond, pay no
duty, and receive no bounty. This afternoon there are still
a great many inquiries for goods for shipping, and parcels
continue to be taken off as they are brought forward, and
a fortnight before they are readl, at full as high prices as
last week. In low Lumps there has been the most busi-
ness done at 70s. 6(3. a 725. for packing, but the better
descriptions have been taken off for crushing, sales of
which continue to be made at the quotations, and many
orders still remain unexecuted; fine Loaves for the Double
Refined Bounty at about 38s. to 395. are in demand, but
rather scarce at present. The supply of fine Grocery goods
still continues small.

FOREIGN SUGAR.—There are few sales since the agita-
tion of the new Sugar duty. This day at public sales 471
packs Brazil, and 80 chests Havannah Sugar. The sound
Brazil was nearly all taken in ; and a lot of two only sold
18s. for brown, 235. fid. for good yellow. The Havanna},
gooel white sold at 425., yellow at 245.
EAST INDIA SUGAR.-The public sales of Mauritius
Sugars advertised, about 10,000 bags, have been all with.
drawn, on account of the agitated state of the trade rela-
tive to the Sugar Duty. This afternoon 670 bags East
India Sugar were brought forward at public sale ; the
whole were Bengals, and sold a shade lower.
COFFEE.-The public sales have been considerable this
week. The British plantation has sold rather heavily, but
large parcels have been disposed of chiefly for home con-
sumption, and, though some lots have sold at cheap rates,
yet we can make no general reduction in the prices, Foreign
has sold rather higher; 588 bags fine, and fine ord. Ha-
vanna], 425. 6,1. a 465. 6d., and 1,618 bags fine ord. 355.
a 41s. ; 3,920 bags good Cheribon, 345. Gd. a 375., ord.
325. ; 4,350 hags fair quality Brazil were all taken in at
31s. By public sale this forenoon, 356 casks British
plantation, 1,084 bags Foreign and Mocha Coffee ; the
Jamaica sold heavily, but without reduction in the prices ;
the Mocha, about GOO bags, sold 3s. a As. higher; St.
Domingo all taken in at 325. ; mid. and fine Coffee, 2s. a
3s. lower. There is a general demand for Coffee, both
for export and home consumption.
Rom, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.-The duty on Rum
may now he stated settled, in place of being put on a more
favourable situation with British home Spirit ; there
is 6,1. per gallon addition to be placed on all Spirits, and
the bonus to the West India Planters is the reduction of
the duty on Sugar. In Rum the only purchase is a parcel
of Jamaica 28 to 33 to over, at 2s. 10d. a 3s. In Brandy
or Geneva there is no business reported.
SALTPETRE.—The Market is at a complete stand-still;
since the declaration of 1,000 tons for sale there has been
no business. This day, at public sale, 1,749 bags Salt-
petre, all taken in at 355. Gd. a 365., fair quality, refrac-
tion to be allowed.

HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLow.—The Tallow Market
continues steady, but without briskness : the purchases
reported are inconsiderable. Flax is still in demand. Hemp
dull.

TEA.-I3olicas in large chests cost Is. 60.3 d. per lb. profit; the quarter and half chests bear id.
to Id, per lb. premium. There is some demand for the
low Twankays, at a little advance on their cost.
