MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(Frern the London New Price Currest of y.ettrday.)

Sutaaea-There were considerable supplies of new Mus-
covades last week, and as the first arrivals are generally
good Sugars, they sold freely at very full market prices ;
the estimated purchases were 2,800 hhds. and trs., which
with 21,000 bags Mauritius reported sold, forms an exten-
sive business for one week ; the prices are without varia-
tion. The stock of Sugar here is 13,409 hhds. and trs.,
being 755 more than last year; the stock of Mauritius is
95,973 bags, being 32,702 more than in 1829. The de-
liveries of Sugar continue large ; last week 3,090 hhds. and
tra., being 107 more than last year ; the delivery of Mauri-
tius 9,984 bags, being 7,544 more than in 1829. This
morning the inquiries after good new Sugars continued
general, and as the landings are now considerable, there
was a better supply than for same weeks past ; at the dos
of the day the estimated sales were 1,000 hhds. and trs. a
full prices. The Refined Market last week was very ins
dequately supplied with goods, either for export or home
consumption, otherwise the purchases would have been ex-
tensive; there is little alteration in the prices, the buyers
waiting the event of the expected supplies in a week or two,
as the refiners are at full scot k ; the goods most in demand
on account of their scarcity, are goods for tip Double Refined
Bounty and Lumps, 745. a 775. ; crushed are in some request.
Molasses higher. This afternoon there is no ilteration.
Folmar: SUGARS.-A considerable proportion of the
Havannah taken in, was purchased at full sale prices, in-
ferior
soft white 325. a 365., fine 41s. a 435. 6d., and by
private contract 450 boxes brown Havannah sold at 249.,
good and fine white Pernams 30s. a 335., low to middling
soft Rio 245. a 28s. 6d. This day at the Brazil Sugar
sale all the sound was taken in, no offers near the market
prices ; the quality was very good.
EAST INDIA SUGAR.--This week 21,000 bags Mauri-
tius were offered at public sale, and disposed of at full
market prices till Friday, when a reduction of Is. per cwt.
took place. This day 3,405 bags Mauritius Sugar by
public sale. The fine sold at very high prices, fine s9+.
a 595. 6d. ; the descriptions under 50s. sold heavily at a
reduction of s. per cwt.
COFFEE.-There were few public sales of Coffee last
week on account of the short supplies at Market, and the
determination of the buyers not to purchase to any extent
till the arrivals are more general; one cargo of Jamaica
new Coffee has been brought forward, chiefly middling de-
scriptions ; it went cff much about the prices at which the
cargo had been estimated. Generally the Coffee Market
is steady. This day, by public sale, 2,605 bags Brazil,
1,403 bags East India, 140 casks 6 bags British Planta-
tion ; the Brazil nearly all disposed of at or after the sale
at full Market prices, good ordinary 325. 6d. a 335., up
to 365. and 375. fcr very fine ordinary ; Sumatra and
Batavia sold Is. lower, 265. 6d. and 325. ; the British
Plantation was all Demerara and Berbice, and was sold at
a reduction of 5s per cwt., middling 545. a 575.
COCOA.-After the public sale of Cocoa last week about
400 bags were placed, good 15s. a 17s. ; a parcel of new
Trinidad, good quality, has been sold at 425. This day
16S barrels Trinidad red Cocoas, fine quality, sold at 455.
Run, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.-The purchases of
Rum have been confined to a few favourite marks of Ja-
maica at 35., and a few very strong 3s. a 3s. 4d. ; a
small parcel of Leewards four and five over at Is. 11d.-
Brandy and Geneva are without alteration. This mot n-
ing there are some inquiries for Rum for export, but the
buyers appear inclined to wait further supplies. The de-
liveries of Rum last week were 1,220 puns. and hhds., of
which 891 were for home consumption.
NEW SPIRIT DUTY.-The West India planters have
requested that a deputation of distillers and planters should
state their claims before the Chancellor of the Exchequer
and the other Ministers, and if this should be declined,
they will beg a Committee of the House of Commons for
the purpose of investigating the question between the
West India planters and distillers should be granted. We
hare read the different statements of the parties with great
attention, and the question becomes a very simple one, as
both declare they wish for no favour,-only to be pl iced
on a footing of competition. The English distillers place
the high price cf corn, the prohibition of cheap Foreign
Batley, and the Excise regulations, against all the calcula-
tions of the different expenses incurred by the West India
distillers : these calculations are of the simplest kind, and
the matters of fact to be proved lie within a very narrow
compass.

HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The Tallow Market is
much more firm on account of the high price at Peters-
burgh, and the alteration in the Exchange. In Hemp or
Flax there is no material alteration. The letters from St.
Petersburgh are dated the 13th ult. Exchange 10 7-16.
Tallow 92 a 93.

SPICES.—This day at public sale 733 bags Black
Pepper, the whole sold 3d. a 3id., at a reduction.

WooL.—There is little alteration in Wool ; the Market
is dull, the trade being in some measure affected by the
general uncertainty as to the health of the King, and the
change it may produce in the manufactures of the country
for the next six months ; the stocks of the manufacturers
of Wool are, however, so reduced, that a revival of the
demand is expected, particularly as there is little accumu-
lation of stock from recent arrivals.

Ricr.—ln Rice there is little alteration ; Carolina a
shade higher. By public sale 349 bags Batavia Rice taken
in at Ss. 6(1.

SALT? ET R E.—The last sales are at the inserted quotations.
Corros.—The Cotton Market has become exceedingly
dull, and the prices are again a shade lower. The sales
are only about 100 bags.
IN nico.—Since the conclusion of the India House sale,
there has been a better demand for Indigo, and the market
looks more firm.

COCWINEAL.—By public sales 98 serous Cochineal,
nearly all sold about 3d. per lb. lower ; Black 10s. a
I Is. 4d. ; Silver 9s. a 9s. 9d. ; Foxey Bs. 10d. a 9s.
CASSIA LIGNEA.—By public sale '755 chests Cassia
Lignea, mid. quality, sold 645. a 665.
FRUIT.-Fruit is held with more firmness. Currants
and lied Fruit have been sold at Is. advance.
Ous.—Common Oils are in good demand, and rather

higher.
TEA.-There is nothing new in the market since our
last, but the operations of the last few days have been
more limited.

IRISH PROVISIONS.-Beef and Pork are very dull.
Bacon is without variation. Butters are dull and rather
lower, on account of the new being offered at a small re-
duction fur arrival ; for new Cork 104 is asked.

again advanced Is. per quarter. Oats fully maintain
former prices. Beans are Is. to 2s. per quarter dearer.
Pease are scarce, hut no advance is obtained. Flour is
dull sale at present, hut as the stocks are getting very low,
