MARKET IN TELLIGENCE.

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

Corrom Woot.—Scarcely any business done in this
article, and prices nominally the same.

Stnaans.-:-There has been a better show of B. P. Mus-
covadoes this week, several parcels of new Sugars having
appeared in the market ; but owing to very extensive sales
of Mauritius (all of superior quality), the business in Mus 7
covadoes was rather limited, not above 3 000 casks sup-
posed to have been sold. Some new good coloury Jamaica,
grocery as high as 655. ; good new Demerara from 655. to
68s. Refiners have bougl.t pretty freely of strong pan
sugars at 518. to 535. Our stock has again decreased,
only 1,600 casks having been landed, and 2,230 delivered;
however, several vessels are now unloading, and the diffe-
rence may be made up in the next and the following week.
MAURITIUS.—The public sales have been again very
large indeed, not less than 21,730 bags, all good dry new
sugars. A small parcel which was put up on Tuesday
went off heavily, but on Wednesday and yesterday, al-
though the quantity was large, prices were fully main-
tained ; rather better for first-rate sugars, and without
alteration for good strong brown ; hardly any low brown
in the different sales; the biddings were very lively and
apparently very few taken in by the proprietors. The
nearest prices may be quoted, fine yellow strong grained
58s. to 625., fine and good yellow 50s. to 575., fine brown
48s. to 495., good and middling brown 455. to 475. The
5,220 bags Mauritius sugars which were brought forward
by auction this morning, were not of that dry good coloury
description as we have had of late; however, prices went
rather lower—washed low brown to good yellow, 41s. 6d.
to 461. ; sound dry brown, rather foxy, 445. 6d. to 455.;
low brown, 455. 6d. to 465. ; middling yellow, 465. to
475. ; no fine yellow in the parcel.
REFINED.-It is strongly asserted that the foreign
markets are heavy and lower ; yet, there were daily buyers
for shipping, and our stock of ready goods is kept low ; the
lowest brown lumps fetch 705., good strong melting
lumps 715., 725., and '72s. 6d., small lumps 725. 6d. to
745., and Prussian 745. to 765. ; common single and
Hamburg loaves very few on hand, and very little in-
quired after; fine Ilamburg and powder loaves find still
buyers, but not so readily as last week, they have been
sold at 835., 855., and 88s., or 385., 405., and 435. on
board. Grocers are strong buyers, the crushers rather
slack.

MOLASSES in demand, and have been sold again at 18s.
EAST INDIA SUGARS...--,A public sale of 7,070 bags
Bengal being declared by the Company for the 12th of
May, has prevented business being done by private con-
tract.

FOREIGN.—On Wednesday large sales of Havannah
and Brazil—of the former 3,130 chests, of Brazil 468
chests, including a few half chests and 100 barrels ; such
a quantity was, in the present state of the market, ex-
pected to have effected prices, but it was not the case ;
amongst the Havannah were about 1,100 chests from
Mantanzas, of good colour, but as usual not of first-rate
with regard to strength. The best white of this parcel
went at 41s. 6d. to 435. 6d., middling 395. to 415., and
inferior white 365. to 38s. 6d. ; the remainder being from
Havannah and Trinidad :la Cuba were not all of an equally
good strong quality. The best mark went also at 425. to
435. 6d., middling 404. to 415., inferior but strong white
365. 6d. to 395., some ordinary soft white as low as 325.
to 355., a few lots yellow 21s. to 235. 6d. ; those lots
which were taken in at the sale are supposed to have been
nearly all sold soon after. No further sales of Havannah
advertised, and very few whites left in first bands. Of
Brazil about 170_ chests were white remains, and were
taken in, good dry white 31s. to 334., inferior 265. to
80s. ; 300 chests yellow and brown Bahia and Rio sold
at from 19s. to 235. 6d. for yellow, and 15s. to 18s.
6d. for brown : the quality of the whole was soft and
indifferent.

COFFEE.-The transactions in this article during the
week have been very few ; by public sale there were only
300 casks put up, mostly Berbice, which were withdrawn
at from 60s. to 735. ; 2,500 bags of St. Domingo which
were to have been sold by the hammer on Tuesday last,
have not been brought forward. By private contract
business has also been limited ; grocers as well as shippers
waiting for the new coffee just arrived to come to market.
Two hundred and thirty-two casks Bilkish plantation
coffee, newly imported, were sold by public sale this day,
mostly Jamaica; middling good coloured and sold from
555. to 625. 6d. ; common middling 525. to 545. ; fine
flue ordinary 51s. to 525. ; tine ordinary 48s.
COCOA.—Two thousand three hundred and forty bags of
Brazil were attempted to sell by public auction on Tues-
day last, but although the quality was fair, only a part of
it was sold at 15s. 6(1., rest withdrawn at this price.
TOBACCO.—Nothing doing in this article at present.
TEA.—For Bohea tea there continues a good d !nand,
and large chests may be considered at a profit of from lid.
to 3d. per lb. ; quarter and half chests continue also to
command a profit of Id. to I id.

raw silk Lad been in demand, and the
prices of fine quality are a shade higher. Thrown remains
steady ; a few sales of Piedmont have been effected. In
Brutians no alteration. Some sales of Bengal raw have
been made at five guineas premium per lb. on last sale's
prices. China silks are from Is. to Is. 6d. per lb. higher.
Irrnico.—The E tat India Company's sale, consisting of
5,036 chests, principally Bengal, klenares, Madras, and
Oude (of which 274 were withdrawn), went off ugir
fornily at an advance, compared with the previous bale, of
3d. to 6d. per lb. on good Bengali suitable for shipping;
the inferior and middling consuming qualities, including
the Madras, went horn former sale price to 6d. per lb.
decline. The Guile's generally of ordinary qualities were
mostly taken in at from 3d. to 6d. above the market
prices; the few that found buyers were at about former
sale's price. The whole of the Company's Indigo, '765
chests, were actually disposed of, but between 100 and
900 of the privilege were taken in. As we have cor-
rected our quotations agreably to the prices of this sale, it
is unnecessary here to repeat them, but have only to refer
to the inserted currency. The several public sales of In-
digo brought forward went off steadily at about the same
prices as were paid at the Company's sale.
SALTPETRE rather more in request; 365. 6d. has hem
paid for rough.
Orr..—Favourable accounts were received yesterday
from Newfoundland of the seal fisher', which has caused
the demand for seal oil to be dull. In other respects the
oil market generally continues steady; linseed, Greenland
whale, and cod oil are quoted rather higher, whilst South
whale and brown rape are rather lower than last week;

been made for new, the price asked on board kir next
month is Ns. per cwt. The late arrivals of Dutch have
been sold at 108.1. per cwt. for best quality. No ether
alteration, excepting that English butter is quoted lower.
Hors.—There has been a good deal of business trans-
acted in yearling pockets, both Kent and Sussex, and an
advance of 10s. per cwt. has been paid. The London
