London, England, 1839-02-09 00:00:00

come short, an advance on former rates of 2s has been obtained, bn.
for ordinary and unclean sorts the demand has again been limited.;
which is to be attributed to the low prices at which Brazil, imported:
from the Cape, Sumatra, and other common descriptions of Erns-
ndia are selling at; at auction 108 casks Jamaica have been brolight
orward, and being principally of superior quality, which is.ratlelt
anted, sold readily, fine mid at 1445, fair to good mid 110 s 6d to
122 s Gd, fine fine ordinary and low middling 1034 6d to 1045 gd•
The stock is now 550 tons larger than at this time last year ; ord/r
190 casks, &c. have arrived since our last. In East India no
change has occurred in prices. For Ceylon a better demand bas
been experienced from the grocers, who have paid 97s fur small par-
cels of good ord ; none has been offered at auction, and nothing
is declared ; the stock is small, and is nearly one-third less than in
1838: almost all is held by the dealers. Mocha has been taken
more freely for home use at former rates, In Sumatra, there has
been more business doing ; and 42s has been paid for 400 bags fair
ordinary. Some parcels of Brazil, imported from the Cape, and
admitted at the 9d duty, have been taken by the home trade at 50s
to 555. The deliveries of East and West India have greatly in'
creased since this day week. In the Foreign Market, the demand
has been confined to the better qualities of Brazil,
which have wet
with a good sale, and brought higher prices: at auction 810 bags
sold readily, fine ordinary colour at 47s to 48s, and superior 50s i
for ordinary sorts these are, however, very few buyers, but holders
are not inclined, at present, to submit to lower prices. In St. Do-
mingo we have no sales to report; fine descriptions are held for
45a to 46 per cwt.
Sprees.—Black Pepper is held firmly, and there are few sellers of
common Sumatra under 4d per lb, but the demand for home con-
sumption has been limited ; for export there are very few orders,
and capitalists are nct inclined to make investments at present'
The transactions privately in Pimento have been only to a limited
extent, but holders have refused to submit to lower prices. Cassia
of good quality is wanted for shipping, but holders are not incline"
to sell at present rates, and have again supplied the market %Par'
ingly, but the inferior qualities still sell slowly. For Cinnamon
there are very few orders, but lower prices have not been accePtalt
the stock of unsold being light. Mace, Nutmeg, Ginger and other
articles have undergone no change in prices, but the purchases hale
been only to a limited extent.
This afternoon 500 bags Barbadoes Ginger at public sale went gs
a 3s higher and brought 45s 64 a 46s for good old quality.
Otcs.—ln Linseed Oil the purchases have been limited, but under
27s 64 there are few sellers. Rape has sold slowly and lower prices
have been accepted. In Olive and East India Cocoa Nut the Put.:
chases have been limited, but previous rates have been maintained'
Sperm is scarce, and for small quantities buyers are compelled to 01
the prices quoted; the demand for all kinds of common Fish Oda
for home use has been limited ; for exportation there has been Ina
thing done, and in some instances lower prices have again been ne:n
cepted. At public sale this afternoon 200 tuna Southern and '"
tuns Palm were offered, the former sold at 2515 s a 271 106 Per tuit,
for mid to good, and the latter at 42s 3d a 42s 6d per cwt. for o°'
quality.
TALLOW.—The consumers still come forward cautiously, and
although holders have submitted to the reduced rates of 549 a
54s 3d for Pctersburgh Yellow Candle on the spot of first quald/'
yet it has occasioned no increase in the demand, for chandlers as
well as soap makers have taken only sufficient to supply their loupe'
diate wants, and the deliveries have fallen off considerably
March and April a few contracts have been made at 52. a 5211
for delivery in the last three months there are sellers at 40,
which several purchases have been made; at public sale 274 cas.;
South American brought 47s Gd a 50s for ord, and 50s 6d a 60f,
for mid to good quality. Town Tallow has met with a slots n,:ei
and prices have again given way. On 'Change this afternoon

price was 53s 9d a 54s for P. Y. Candle of first quality.
Prtovisross.—The demand for Irish Butter has been !Milled,
buyers still taking only sufficient to supply their immediate wan::
but no further reduction in prices can be quoted; a revival in te
demand is, however, shortly expected, the stocks held by the trail
being small. Foreign has been taken sparingly, and fine qualities
been sold at 1065 to 108 s : the arrivals have been small. The oil'
for Bacon has been very limited, and rather lower prices have gal:
been submitted to. Lard is Is cheaper, and the operations have
been limited. India and Mess Beef has maintained former rata'
but the demand has been for small quantities only. Pork 11°1 °f
