(Prom the London New Price Current of this day.)

SUGAR.—There is no decided reduction for colonial,
supplies keeping moderate and consumption to exceed that
of last year, still the home trade demand has been smaller
than previoupl. Foreign is less wanted by exporters and
home dealers, but in prices there is scarcely any change,
although daty paid parcels have been more freely cam ed
for sale. For auction on Thursday, 4,000 chests yellow
Havannah, chiefly of fine quality ; 370 cases Bahia ; 3,200
bags Pernambuco, and for Friday, 5,000 bags of Bengal
are declared. To-day there was decidedly a better demand
for West India sugar for home trade purposes, and pre-
vious rates are well sustained for both grocery and refining
qualities, there being no increase of supply. Operations
amounted to. 950 hhds, &c., including auction 300 hhds
Barbadoes which went freely at full prices, low to mid-
dling yellow at 35s 6d to 37s 6d, good 38s to 38s 6cl, and

463 to 41s 6d for low to fine grocery lumps. Several
parcels of Crushed Sugar were taken by exporters at
former terms.
MAURITIUS. —The demand has been less active for
grocery sorts, and there is a decline of 6d per cwt., but a
free sale exists for refining, and previous terms are sup-
ported. This afternoon several parcels of Mauritius. were
sold privately, and, at prices fully equal to Friday. Only
271 bags were offered at auction, and went at 33s 6(.1 to

dearer.

at the rates previously established. Proprietors have

better demand exists at 331 to M. A good business

to 87/, the market having a firm aspect. Sales in cocoa nut
are on a more extended scale—Cochin at 38s 6d to 395, and
other sorts 36s 6d to 38s. Several transactions have taken
place in palm, and 32s to 33s paid for good to fine. Prices
keep higher for olive, in consequence of a scanty supply—
Gallipoli realising 681. to 701., and other sorts 651. 671. per
