MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

( From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)
SUGAR.—To-day there was some improvement in the
demand for British plantation sugar, both for grocery and
refining purposes, whilst the prices obtained are fully equal
to those of Friday. At auction 250 hhds Barbadoes went
at the full value ; fine yellow at 38s to 38s Gd,. and low to
good 34s to 37s 6d ; 108 hhds, 30 tierces, and 60 brls Ja-
maica, mid to fine brown 33s 6d to 34s 6d ; ord yellow 35s
to 36s 6d ; and 30 hhds Demerara at 32s Gd to 33s 6d for
mid to good brown.
REFINED.—To-clap there was a reluctance to operate in
refined sugar for home trade purposes, and rather lower
rates were accepted ; brown lumps selling at 45s 6d to 465,
low to fine grocery 46s to 48s Gd.
EAST INDIA.—The prices obtained to-day were for good
grainy white 425, good to fine yellow ditto 39s to 40s 6d,
ord 36s to 375, brown ditto 32s to 32s 6d, Benares 36s to

31s per cwt.

red 34s to 365, good to fine 36s 6d to 40s, and Grenada 29s
to 365. Foreign is wanted and supply does not increase,
the currency is firm, Gusyquill at 34s to 3Gs, Bahia 26s 6d
to 275, and Para 29s to 29s 6d per cwt. Stock is 1,000
bags under this date last year.

lent request, and the previous improvement in prices well
sustained for all sorts. At auction 200 casks and 100 bags

to 58s, other sorts 51s to 565, triage 44s 6cl to 535, and pea

common quality, whilst the sound of 1865 bags Rio was
taken in at 43s to 45s for export sort, damaged selling at
35s 6d to 40s, these are very full prices.
TEA.—Although demand has improved for good to fine
Congou, yet at previous terms merchants are inclined to
sell, and a fair quantity is now on offer. There is yet a
reluctance to do business in inferior, and supply being on
the increase prices are going down. The currency is now
for low to-good common 100 to 11d, rather blackish leaf
to blackish leaf 11 id to is lAd, strong Pekoe sorts
is ld to is Bd, and choice is 9d to 2s id. per lb.
Dealers only purchase sufficient for present consumption.
To-day operations in tea were on a larger scale, and holders
are unable to obtain any advance for black or green.

wards at 2s 2d to 2s 3d, East India 2s I:,d to 2s 2d, strong
Demerara 3s to 3s 4d, and Jamaica from 3s 9d to 5s as to

vourable respecting the crop, still there is a firm market
with a fair home and export
last
; the rates obtained
rather
exceed those of the las., quarterly sales.

Saltpetre, and at auction 497 bags Calcutta were taken in
at 28s 6d to 29s for 1 to VI per cent., being the full value.
OILS.—A more ready sale prevails for Seal, and there is
a firm market ; pale realised 341 to 351, and other sorts 321
to 331105. Cod is not much required, and can be obtained
at 331105. Of Southern, supply is yet small ; there are
several buyers, and 35/. to 381. Os. paid for common. For
