MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current, Sept. 25.)
&GAR -To day the market was much better supplied
with free-labour sugar, and as merchants were desirous
to realise, prices gave "way for most descriptions. In
consequence of a reduction on former levee of 6d per
cwt having been submieted to for West India
a good business was concluded in both grocery and
refiriing sorts. The purchases amounted to 950 hhcle
and tree, including at public sale 160 hhds Barbadoes,
e. which went at 39, 6i to 41c 6cl for fine and superior

per cwt; low and middling yellow went at 37s 6d to 38s

l% and former rates are well supported. The sales have
N been 500 puns, St. Kites, St. Vincent's and Trinidad at
15s 64 to 163 64, and fine Antigua 183 to 18s 6d per cwt;
36 inch ed some parties will not sell at these rates. Bengal
• Treacle has been dealt in with greater freedom at 15s
's
to 15s 61 per cwt., and on the part of holders there is
firmness ; the quantity on offer is also less than is the
former week.

e% presented a quiet aspect. At public sale 133 casks
200 1895. bags were offered; Plantation went Is toles cheaper,

casks of Jamaica sold rath'•r cheaper, fine fine ord 48e
to 49s 6d, fine ord 43s to 45s 6d, and good ord 39s to 40s
6d per cwt.
'1E41.-With all sorts of Green the market is much
better supplied, and there are sellers at rather lower
prices, still few buyers are to be met with, and the
trade has a dull aspect. For ordinary and middling
sorts of Congou there is still a brisk demand, and
former rates are well supported ,• the business con-
cluded in good and fine has been limited, and
easier rates are acceded to. In scented and black leaf
Pekoe few sales have been made, and there are sellers
upon rather lower terms. At auction last week 35,000
pltgs were offered, and 10,600 found buyers, the chief
part consisted of ord Congou.

made by private treaty in rough, and at auction 300 bags

refraction; these are rather full rates.
INDicao.-A moderate business has been concluded in
Eaft India since this day week by shippers and home
dealers, but holders have been unable to obtain any ad-
vance on last sale's rates. For auction on the 9th of
October 16,691 chts aro declared. Spanish is held for
former terms, but there are not many buyers.
SPIRITS.-East India Rum is offered rather at lower
rates, still only small sales have been made at is 2i to
Is 3d proor. Leeward Island met with little attention,
and Is 4d to is 5d is the value of proof; prices
have a downward tendency. In Demerara only
,mall purchases have been made at Is 104 to 2s 24
,or 28 to 40 per cent. over proof. In consequence of
rather lower rates having been accepted for ord and good
qualities of Jamaica a large business has been eon-
% clod( d, and the purchases are 700 puns, &c ,at from
2: 3d to 3s for 26 to 36 per cent. over proof. Sales to
fair extent have been made in the better kinds at
,14 rrom 3s 2d to 3s 54 for 33 to 36 over,
I and favourite marks at 3s 4d to 4s per gallon. Further
adse_nced rates are freely paid for Brandy, end

- stocks in first hands are much reduced. For arrival
the demand continues active, and duty has again
Ice, been paid upon extensive parcels at this purt.
The value of Cognac best brands of the
vintage of 1848 is 4s 6d to 4s 8d per gallon, and higher
rates are likely to prevail. Oaly a moderate demand
exists for Geneva, export sort at Is 94 to is 10d, and fine
home trade kind 23 3d to 3s 34. There is still no yetis-
tion to record in the value of British-made Spirit, but
1% the demand is not brisk.

TALLow.—For Russian on the spot there is not a
brisker demand, and prices are still on the decline.
Only limited sales have been made, and the rites sc•
cepted for fine P.Y.C. aro 37s to 37s 3d per cwt.;
these moderate rates are expected to cause a
better gradual demand, as consumption is getting larger.
Home melted is quoted at 36s 6d to 37s nett cash.
Other sorts of Tallow are further depressed in valu.! by
reason of large supplies. The parcels offered at auction
were only in part disposed of, and amount, d to 220
casks of New South Wales, which went at 33s to 37s
for low to fine quality; 1,300 pkgs South American

HULL, SEPr. 25.
Messrs. Taylor and Bright's circular states,—We
have had a very moderate supply of wheat from abroad
during the past week, and the market has been very firm,
with is advance on best runs of tic sh red foreign. Of
other articles arrivals are to a fair extent, and of barley
large; for malting qualities the demand is exceedingly
languid, and even for the finer descriptions of Said h.ss
money has had to be taken, while, on the contrary, for
grinding the demand continues great, and at full prices.
There was only a moderate show of English wheat at
our this day's market, and, notwithstanding the dulness
yesterday in !Mark-lane, our farmers wore quite indis-
posed to make any concession upon the rates current last
week, and such were generally paid for best descriptions.
More samples of new wheat shown, and condition goad;
such was pretty free sale at 40s to 433 per quarter. The
weights run from 621 b to 641 b per bushel. Very little
foreign wheat offering, and of fine quality the st,,cks ate
now unimportant; we make no alteration in our cur-
rency, but the market is very firm. The remarks made
above as to barley are fully confimed by the operations
of to-day; malting qualities quite neglected; grinding
free sale at full prices, and the market g, tting well
cleared of late arrivals. A good consumptive demand for
oats, as well as good beans, at our quotations, but pens
are only saleable at low rates for feeding purposes. For
boilers we have no present sale. Indian corn is selling
at 283 4801 b, The linseed market is well supported
and cakes are not quite so good to buy. Our
quotations for rapeseed, are quite n: urinal, there
being no stocks. Rape cakes are scarce, both English
and foreign, and in good demand. With moderate
arrivals tho bone market is very firm.
