TEA.—Business has been rather dull, but prices in most
instances are well sustained.

SUGAR.—The market has been without change of im-
portance. Superior qualities of West India fully maintain
previous rates, but other descriptions are without material
alteration.

COFFEE.—There has been a fair inquiry for both plants•
tion and native Ceylon, and prices generally are wel
maintained.

RICE.—A fair amount of business has been transacted in
East Indian descriptions, without, however, any great
variation in values.

TALLOW.—Business generally has been more active, and
prices for both present and forward delivery have shown
an upward tendency. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 40s 6d ;
March and April, 40s 3d ; and last three months, 42s to 42s
3d per cwt.
