COLONIAL.

TEA.—The daalings have been to an average extent, and
prices generally are well supported for good and medium
qualities, _ _ _

SUGAR.—The market has remained dull, and the few
dealings recorded have been at slightly reduced prices.
Refined deecriptions, however, have been in moderate
favour at steady rates.
COFFEE.—Operations in colonial descriptions have been
moderately active, and good and fine qualities of plantation
Ceylon realise fully late quotations.
RlCE.—There has been a very limited amount of business
recorded, and to effect sales holders have been compelled to
slightly reduce prices. _ _

BA-tirrEntE.-:-Business has been dull, and quotations
rem iin nominally unaltered,
TALLOW.—T'ne market has continued dull, and the ope-
rations for both present and forward delivery have been
on the most limited scale. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted
56s to 56s 3d ; March delivery, 46s ; and last 3 months,
47 6d to 48s per cwt.
