MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

( From the London New Price Current of last Evening.
SUGAR.—Although the arrivals of British Plantation have
been heavy this week, amounting to 13,000 hhds and trs,
which constitute the bulk of the supply for the season, still the
market continues to present a healthy and improving appear-
ance; from the grocers there has been a good and general de-
mand, and the rates previously established have been fully
supported ; in some instances 6d advance has been obtained
for the better descriptions, of which there are still few at
market; the refiners have also purchased to a fair extent, not-
withstandinc, the near approach of the time when the present
bounty and drawback will cease, and the prices paid are in
several cases 6d higher; the private purchases daily have
averaged 700 hhds and trs, making the quantity disposed of
for the three days 2,100 hhds and trs, besides two public sales
of 247 hhds 13 trs 13 Ms Barbadoes, which went off with
spirit, the best qualities Is, and low to mid sorts 6d above
those of the last auction.
This afternoon the buyers came forward with increased
spirit ; the demand from both refiners and grocers was very
extensive, the purchases amounting to 1,300 hhds and trs at
higher prices, making the advance generally, since Friday, 6d
to Is ; 63s paid for fine Jamaica. The quantity sold during
the week, including the public sales of Barbadoes, reach 3,700
hhds and trs.
The grocers have purchased freely of all descriptions of
Refined goods, paying an advance of is for the former, and
6d for the latter; 74s paid for Lumps rather under, 75s to
75s 6d for those equal to the standard, and 69s to 13s for
brown Lumps. Export descriptions have maintained their pre-
' vious currency, and for double Crushed there has been a good
demand to supply immediate orders at 33s 6d ; 10Ibs.
Hamburg Loaves have been sought after, and sales have been
made at 37s ; the quantity of goods offering for sale is by
no means large, for although the refiners have been work-
ing freely for some time, yet it has been to make good their
contracts for the 10th of next month.
MACRITIUS.—There has been a fair demand from both
grocers and refiners; brown descriptions have brought 6d, and
yellow kinds Is advance ; at auction 880 bags went readily,
ord to mid brown at 415 fid to 48s, good to fine 498 6d to 51s
6d, ord almost black and washed sold for export at 39s 6d,
good yellow 58s 6d, good mid 54s 6d to 555, mid 533, ord
51s 6d.
This afternoon 3,603 bags at auction met a gond demand,
mid yellow descriptions went 6d and the better sorts is higher,
fine yellow sold at 593 61 to 60s, good 57s 61 to 58s, mid
54s 6d to 555, low mid 52s to 535, low heavy brown 403 to
435, fair 455, mid to fine 49s to 51$.
EAST INDlA.—Bengal has been sought after by the grocers,
but the supply continuing short has again restricted business,
and the parcels which have changed hands by private treaty
have been at rather higher prices for the coloury descriptions.
There is a good disposition manifested to do business in export
descriptions, but the supply having become short has checked
the demand; the private purchases are 1,000 bags Manilla at
21s. to 21s 6d for soft quality, and 2,000 bags Siam at 25s to
30s for low to gocd white, but principally at 265. On Tues•
day 5,000 bags of the former w ill be offered at auction.
This afternoon 1,058 bags Bengal at public sale sold readily
at prices is above those of the last sale, it was principally an
indifferent parcel, mid dingy white brought 61s 6d a 625, good
mid coloury 63s 6d a 645, damps 60s 61 a 64s 63, washed
58s 6d a 603 per cwt.
FOREIGN.—The market continues firm, and good descrip-
tions have sold to a fair extent, but for ord kinds there has
not been much demand. Two public sales of Brazil, 133
chests 373 brls 37 bags, the quality generally objectionable, have
been brought forward, the greater part was withdrawn; dingy
grey at 29s to 305, yellow 22s to 245; Pernambuco in brls sold
as follows, brown 21s, yellow 245, fine fine yellow to good
white 27s to 31s 6d, in chests very ordinary brown 14s to 19s,
middling brown 21s 6d. By private contract about 1,200
boxes good dry white Havannah have been disposed of at 395,
being rather dearer, and 150 chests yellow 26s 6d to 275.
MOLASSES. --For West India there has been a good de-
mand, 26s 6d paid for good mid Antiguas, 26s for Demerara,
and 24s for common St Vincent's.

ord Jamaica have been offered, which was principally taken in
at 100 s to 1053. East India-1,751 bags Ceylon at public

1018, fine ord with some colour (being the cheapest lots in
the sale) 101 s, bold yellow 101 s 61, fine ord coloury 104 s 6d
to 105 s.
This afternoon the British Plantation Market continued
very inactive ; 54 casks 9 brls at auction, nearly all unclean,
and forming little criterion of market prices,' went rather
under the valuations, low mid Jamaica sold at 106 s 6d, mid
110 s a 1118, clean good to fine 128 s 6d a 130 s 6d per cwt.

40s per cwt.

principally on speculation, and rather higher prices have been
obtained ; for White there are no orders, and 30 bags at auc-
tion were bought in at ls 2d. Pimento in improved request ;
at public sale, 326 bags 10 trs sold at higher prices, fair quality
rather stalky brought 3/d to Sad. Cassia Lignca is held firmly
at the quotations. In Mace, Nutmegs, and Cloves, there
has been no change. East and West India unaltered in value,
a part only of 280 pkgs Jamaica at auction found buyers at
82s 6d to 140 s for low quality.
RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS. -- For Rum there has
been a brisk and general demand; and an advance on pre.
vious rates of Id per gallon has been obtained for Jamaica.
