MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of this day.)
SUGAR.— To-day West India Sugar was in excellent re-
quest, chiefly for grocery purposes, but there being a plen-
tiful supply importers were compelled to accept prices cur-
rent on this day week for all sorts. Refined sugar met with
a brisk demand for home consumption—brown lumps at
45s 6d to 465, and low to fine grocery 46s 6d to 48s 6d. per
cwt. Them arket i s inactive for crushed sugar at former rates.
Of Mauritius sugar the supply was more plentiful, and the
parcels offered at auction amounted to 7,400 bags. The
whole sold. Grocery sorts realised stiffer rates ; and re-
fining went at full terms ; low to mid realised 33s 6d to
355, good to fine 35s 6d to 33s 6d, grey from 32s to 35s 6d,
fine 36s to 375, low to mid brown 27s to 30s, and better
sorts 31s to 33s per cwt. Bengal sugar was in excellent
demand, and at auction 2,600 bags were sold at full rates.
Benares at 36s 6d to 39s 6d, and Mauritius sorts 32s to
34s 6d per cwt.

MOLASSES.—There is still a reluctance to do business :
supply continues to get larger, and prices to decline. Small
sales of West India made at 15s to 17s, Surinam 15s 6d to
16s, Cuba and Porto Rico 16s to 17s, Bengal and Mauri-
tius 14s 6d to 15s.

COCOA.—Foreign remains in good demand, and prices
are firm : Para at 28s to 295, Bahia 26s to 275, and Guaya-
quil 35s to 36s per cwt. Stock is much less than it was at
this time last year.

Ceylon Coffee. In auction 230 casks and 13 brls only in
part sold, still lower rates were not taken, good qualities
went at 59s to 62s 6d—other sorts 51s to 58s. Native was
not much required, and at public sale 500 bags were taken
in at 46s for ord quality, but of Costa Rica 560 bags sold
at full terms, from 57s to 64s for mid to good, fine fine ord
to low mid 51s 6d to 655.

scale, and only for immediate consumption, although rather
lower terms are accepted—low to good ord selling at lld to
11. id, rather blackish leaf to blackish leaf at llid to is ld,

Canton is id to is 6d, Hyson kind is 8d to 2s 4d, Hyson
skin 10d to is 2d.

RICE.—To-day India rice was more in demand, but an
advance of 3d per cwt. being required operated against
business. Of 2046 bags Bengal at public sale a small part
only sold at 11s 6d to 12s for good to fine white, and
broken lOs 6d to lls per cwt. Of sago 273 boxes went at
