MARKET INT ELLIGENCE.

( From the London New Pi-ice Current of this day.)
Sue-An. —To-day the British Plantation market wr
plentifully supplied, but importers accepting prices rathe
under those of Friday, caused a large demand to preva
from gi ocers and refiners. Barbadoes sold, fine yellow, a
39s to 40s, and at 33s 6d to 38s 6d for low to good ; 26 3
hhds, 41 trcs, 145 brls St. Lucia, low to fine brown 32s 6.1
to 31s, refining 33s to 375, 28 hhds, 21 brls St, Kitts 34
Gd to 365, and 27 hhds Demerara crystalised 37s to 40s fa
for mid to fine yellow.
REFINED.—To-day Refined Sugar was in active demmui
for home trade purposes—brown lumps realised 468 6d ,
low to fine grocery 47s to 51s per cwt. The export deman, I
is not better for crushed sugar.
EAST INDlA.—Bengal sugar was in good demand pri e
vately, and realised full rates.
MOLASSES.—Demand gets larger, and prices are firmor .
MAURlTlUS.—Mauritiui sugar was in extensive upply
Fine and good yellow went at 35s 6(1 to 38s, lows to mu 1
34s to 355, ord to fine brown 30s to 33s 6d, very good 28i I
6(1 to 29s Gil, low to fine refining 32s to 36s 6d, and grains
36s to 42s per cwt.
COCOA.—The market for cocoa to-day presented a firm aspect, and 122 bags Grenada in auction sold at 29s
32s 6d. tc
COFFEE.— To-day rather lower rates were accepted for
Plantation Ceylon coffee; buyers were in consequence in -
duced to operate freely ; all fine went at 67s 6d, mid t(
good mid 58s to 598 6(1, low mid 56s to 57s Gd, other [aorta
53s to 565, triage 46s to 525, and peaberry 60s to 545, butt
chiefly at 53s 6d to 565. Prices are still on the decline fox
native. Madras went at 46s to 46s 6d for ord quality.
TEA.—The market presents a dull aspect for Congou—
supply is plentiful, and prices have rather given way. Saks
of low to good commen made at 101 d to 114 d, rather-
blackish to blackish leaf 11'd to 1s 4d, and strong to Pe-
koe sorts is 4;d to 2s sd. There is a reluctance to do busi
ness in green tea, and supply being greater prices have fal-
len id to lid for gunpowder, imperial, and young hysoo,
whilst previous ter ms are barely sustained for other sorts:.
RICE.—To-day East India rice met with little attention
privately, but lower rates were generally not taken. At
auction 999 pockets Bengal were taken in at 10s 6d to lla
for cargo.

accepted are 37s 3d for present, and 38s to 40s for future

taken place; cocoa nut purchases have been important pro
(lacing an advance ; Cochin realising 50s to 50s 6d, anil
other sorts 48s Gd to 49s 6d. Lard Oil sells more freely;
Palm, at 44s to 475; Gall,poli sells at 581. to 591., and other
sorts 551. to 571. Seal is held firmly, and in good demand;
pale at 411. to 431. and other sorts 361. to 401.
TALLOW.—Operations have been on a limited scale in
Russian ; by the trade and speculators an impression in-
creases that large indirect snpplies will be received ; whilst
stock is 12,000 casks more than last year, and deliveries
10,0 less. A desire in consequence has been evinced to
realize, and prices have declined to 60s 9d to 61s
on the spot for first sort P. Y. candle, and 62s 6d to 63s
for August delivery. Of home melted supply exceeds
demand, and 58s 6d to 59s are the terms accepted cash.
Other sorts of tallow have been dealt in with reluctance,,
and rates are depressed ; Australian, beef selling at 55s t(
57s 6d, mutton 538 to 60s 6d, and South American 56s to
61s. These prices are 17s to 19s per cwt. above the previ-
ous year. On Fri,lay 800 pkgs tallow will, however, be
offered at auction. To-day the tallow market was brisker,
and prices advanced, PYC on he spot is 61s 6d.
