LIVERPOOL, JUNE 14.—The demand for British Plan-
tation Sugar this week has taken off about 1000 'Aids.
consisting chiefly of Grocery description; the prices have
however declined one per cent. There has baen a good
demand for Rum, upwards of 400 puns. ; Demerara and
Jamaica have been sold at full prices; we have also a good
enquiry for Coffee. Our Cotton market in the early part
of the week remained dull, but subsequently the demand
has improved, and the present sales have folly realized our
List quotations. There has been very little doing in Pine
Timber during the week, the country demand having been
very limited; two or three cargoes, lately arrived, have
been disposed of; no sales to report of Indigo.
A Brazil Mail has arrived this morning by the
Swallow, sailed on the 24th of April, but it is of an old
date, as we received letters by the Forte of April 25.
THE FUNDS.
The daily improvement of his Majesty's health has the
effect of keeping the market steady.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 921 for the Ac-
count, opened at the same price; since which they have
been done at 921- -a. As yet little business is doing,
as most of the speculators are- still waiting to hear the
result of the French Expedition, which, according to the
French official despatch was still at Palma on the 2tl of
June, waiting for a favourable wind to continue their ope-
rations.
In the Foreign Market, Greek, Brazilian, and Portu-
guese Stocks have rather improved.
We have not, as yet, any arrivals of consequence.

Owing to an Express from Paris, and it being reported
that the Rentes came higher, the Consol market improved
to 921 for the Account ; we are also informed that the
Bank advances money on all stocks, which are open
at 3 per cent. for six weeks, and three months likewise ;
we have another favourable Bulletin of the King's health
—all this has tended to improve the Market.
The private letters received by the express state, that
contrary winds have prevented the landing of the French
troops at Algiers.
In the Foreign Market all securities have improved

' TALES OF A TAR.—The public, we believe,
are already aware that the chief narrative in this forth •
coming volume, is connected with the mutiny at Spithead;
but it is not generally known that the information on
which the celebrated writer has founded his tale, is ac-
tually derived from the lips of one of the delegates of the
fleet, now living at Greenwich Hospital. Great curiosity
is naturally felt to see the book, as it is thought something,
hitherto unsuspected, will be developed.

A serious accident happened to the Lord
Melville steam packet as she was going down the river
this morning ; she left the Tower Stairs for Calais at eight
o'clock, and on arriving off Hanover Hole, a laden collier,
the Bridget, Captain Jonx ARKLE, of Sunderland, who
hadvery improperly swung his brig, nearly two hours be-
fore high water, came in contact with the Lord Mel-
vale, and carried away her mizen mast, by which accident
the second mate was so seriously injured that he died
on his Way to the hospital. The first mate was
knocked overboard, and taken up only slightly hurt.
The mast, in falling, struck a lady, who, with her hus-
band, went on shore, and it is hoped she is not seriously
injured. The pilot on board the Lord Melville imme-
diately stopped the engines, and set her astern, but it was
nit possible to avoid the brig, which bad so improperly
swung before high water. The Lord Melville was de-
tained about half an hour, and fresh hands having been
put on board, she proceeded on her voyage with about 60
passengers. .
