PRICE OF SUGAR.

The average price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, com-
puted from the returns made in the week ending December
25, 1849, is 275. 61,0- per cwt.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current, Dec. 28.)
SUGAR.—There is a smaller stock of Colonial than
last year by 17,000 tons, but of Foreign the increase
amounts to 16,000, in the former there is a decrease in
imports of 5,000, but an increase in the latter of
8,000. The quantity of Colonial cleared for home
use is larger than in 1848 up to this time by
23,0(0, but of Foreign deliveries exhibit a falling off
of 11,000 tons. For exportation the quantity taken ex-
ceeds that of last season by about 3,000 tons. The Ga-
zette average price of Sugar is 33 6/d per cwt above this
time last year. Although the production of Sugar in
1850 is expected to be fully equal to this season, still
more remunerative prices are expected to prevail,
as consumption in this country, in Europe and
America, is likely to further increase. The
Sugar market has been closed since our last,
but business of ill be resumed on Wednesday, when a
good home trade demand for Sugar is likely to exist, as
dealers hold only limited stuck. The public sales of
Sugar at present declared for next week, comprise 150
hhds Barbadoes, and 7,800 bags Manilla, but other par-
cels are expected to be announced before that time, and
are likely to go off well.
REFINED.—There is much firmness in the market,
and at an early period a large home trade demand is
expected to prevail for lump Suga. Stocks are small
small and less than at this time in the former year.
For brown lumps the value is 50s to 50s 6d. Standard
Lumps 51s 6d ; Tittlers, low to fine 50s 6d
to 54s double 54s 6d to 555. Hamburgh
Loaves 51s to 548:6d, and double 55s to 565; there
are not free sellers for delivery at present rates. Sales
of Wet Lumps have been made at 48s to 49s for low to
fine. Bastards are not much wanted, at from 31s to
37a for low to fine, but the market is firm. Only small
