LONDON MARKETS.

(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)
SUCAK.—The Market has been scantily supplied with
good Sugars, as a great proportion of the holders have
withdrawn ther Sugars from present sale, in the anticipa-
tion of much higher prices, in consequence of the rise of
the Corn market, and the probability that Sugars will be
wed by the distillers. At the close of the market this
day the estimated sales for the week were 3,300 hlids. and
trcs ; the prices are fully Is. higher than on Friday last.
In the Refined market the holders are daily getting more
confidence in higher prices ; the exporters have not, how-
ever, purchased to any extent on account of the season of
the year. Although this market has had a heavy appear-
ance aII the week, goods continue very scarce, and prices
6d. to 1 rt. higher are asked for the low and middling
descriptions for shipping ; for crashed the offers have not
been quite so numerous this week, and very little business
has been done. The melters continue their purchases of
single loaves and Prussian lumps at 695. to 71s. In the
fine descriptions for the double-refined bounty, there has
been less doing, but no alter ation has taken place in prices.
EASE INDIA SUGAR.—The late public esles have gone
off at former prices ; fine brown Mauritius 455. 6d. and
464. ; Bengal, fine yellow te mid white 235. a 275. 6d. ;
strong grey Manilla 2I s. a ; fine yellow Siam 245. 6d.
This day 2059 bags Manilla sold at the advance we have
mentioned, Is. higher than Friday last ; strong grey
21s. 6d. a 245. ; the 145 bags Siam also ratker higher.
FOREIGN SUG A R.—Thtre are no purchases to any extent,

Int the inquiries are increasing, and from ills mild season

an early Spring trade may be expected. The only pur-
chases repored by private contract is a parcel of low Per-
n ,ms, about 17s. and whites about 265. 6d. This day 126
chests Brazil, low to middling white 225. a 265. 6d., rather
higher.
COFFEE.-The Coffee Market has been very firm tkis
week, and the holders of large parcels do not press sales as
they anticipated much higher prices from the general im-
provement of trade. Yesterday some part of the public
sale of British Plantation was taken in, but the proportion
sold was at full prices. There has been a considerable
inquiry for East India Coffee this week ; the prices are
is per cwt. higher; good Sumatra 2Ss. and 2Ss. 6d.,
fair Mysore 40s. and 415., mixed Batavia 325. 6i. and 335.,
