COLONIAL.
SUGAR.—There has not been much doing in British
plantation, and prices have ruled ranch heavier, principally
for the inferior sorts. Barbadoes fine yellow went at 38s
to 395, good mid to good at 35s Gd to 37s 6d and brown at
30s to 32s Gd. Refined has been neglected

to 39s Gd, and Benares at 31s to 37s ; good grainy yellow
38s to 38s 6d, and brown 31s Gd. to 32s for low. Madras
was rather better supported, and only a small portion of
the quantity offered found buyers, brown at 29s to 30s Gd,
and low to mid yellow at 31s to 335. Mauritius brought
32s to 33s for low yellow, 33s Gd to 37s Gd for mid to fine,

for fine white, at 33s 6d to 37s for mid to good, and at 38s
to 42s for fine and extra fine yellow.
COFFEE.—There has not been much doing, but holders,
by keeping back supplies, have endeavoured to support the
previous rates. Plantation Ceylon, by auction, has been

of Arms, which took place suddenly on Wednesday
morning at his residence near Blackrock.—Dublin Even-
ing Mail.

STRANGE STORY.—A son of George Linley, the com-
poser, has had a narrow escape. He had fixed on the
Dalhousie to take his passage for Sydney, but his mother
having taken a prejudice to that ship, she urged him so
fervently to give up his desire of going in her, that at the
last moment only he consented. She visited the Dal-
housie three times with her son, hoping to overcome her
superstitious feelings. On the occasion of her last visit
a gentleman signing papers in the cabin, seeing her hesi-
tation, said, "Madam, this is a first-rate ship ; I have
40,0001. on board, and rest assured I must think well of
the Dalhousie before I would trust so much in her.
Much more he argued to persuade her ; but Mrs. Lin-
ley left, and immediately went to the Samarang, and
there secured a berth for her son.
