LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)
SUGAR.—The demand for Muscovades last week continued
:etieral and extensive; the advance was firmly maintained, and
the esti-a-later] sales exceeded 4,000 hhds. and tees. The stock of
West bah, Sugar is now :37,833 !flirts. and tees , which is 089 less
than last ye r The stock of Mauritius L:2,764 bags, being
15,042 more than last year. The delivery of West India Sugar
last week 3,633 hhds. and tees., being .53 less than last year. The
delivery of Mauritius 7,321 bags, being 6,(25 less than in the cor-
responding week of 1830. At the close of the Market the esti-
mated sales were 900 hhds. and tees., including the public sale of
260 hh,ls. St. Lucia and Dominica Sugars ; the whole went off
languidly 445. up to 475. 6d , at prices a shade lower, and there is
a great heaviness in the raw Market to-day. The request for low
Lumps was brisk last week, and parcels about 625. met an imme-
diate sale ; the fine goods were neglected, the stocks of the latter
are rapidly accumulating ; the fine suitable for the home trade
have been in good demand, and the sales are more extensive
than usual. This afternoon the Refined Market is again more
firm, and every al)paarance of a revival of trade.

sales of Foreign Sugars were reported; 900 boxes Havannah
yellow good 225. a 255., some low white 295. a 325., and good 34s ;

Sugars, the whole went off without the usual briskness, but still
the Market prices were supported, 435. 6(1. for dry brown, up to
525. for good yellow. Average price of Sugar 11.25. 103t1. per cwt.
COFFEE.—The British Plantation descriptions of Coffee
advanced 2s. a 3s. after Tuesday last week ; East India nearly in
the same proportion ; Foreign is also held for higher prices ; 'Or

fine ord. coloury Brazil sold by private contract at 445. Jamaica
Coffee continues in much demand at very high prices.
RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—There has been a
general inquiry after Ruin-for export, but the sales yet made are
to a limited extent, and at very low prices; Leewards under
proof, and proofs, Is. sd. There is also a good demand for Ja-
maica Rum for home consumption, and for fine 3s. 6d. and 3s. 8(1.
asked, the ordinary descriptions are entirely neglected. In Brandy
or Geneva there is no alteration, and very few purchases have
been reported.
HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The Tallow Market has
been very steady for the last week, and considerable transactions
are reported about 425. 6(1., both for time and for present delivery.
It is understood that the great speculators have disposed of a great
proportion of their stock. Hemp and Flax continue to be held for
an irregular advance of 2/. to 3/.

RICE.—The purchases of Rice last week were at prices a shade
lower. This day at public sales 1,407 bags East India Rice sold at
full Market prices, 14s. a 16s.

higher. This day 162 bags Black Pepper, 79 bags Pimento, 1,169
bags East India Ginger; Pepper, stalky, sold high, 270., Pimento

IRISH PROVISIONS.—In the past week the import of
Foreign Butter was 5,052 casks, 8,458 finks, of Irish, and of
Bacon 1,701 bales. An increase in the import of Foreign Butter
is looked for, and while the finest Dutch can be purchased at the
quay at 86s. a 88s., and other descriptions (in quality equal to
Waterford) at 745. a 785., an improvement in the price of Irish,
which is fast accumulating at the quays, cannot be expected;
Cork we quote 78s. on board, 80s. landed; Limerick, now
shipped, 80s. on hoard, 82s. landed; Waterford 78s. a 80s. on
board, 80s. a 82s. landed ; no speculative sales for forward ship-
ment making. Although the deliveries of Bacon from the
Wharf continue large' no improvement in price can be noted,
the trade anticipating that there are some thousands of bales yet
to come forward before the end of the season (Ist of October) ;
prime fresh-landed singed Waterford we quote 465. a 485.; stale
parcels 435. a 445. ; Belfast bale middles, as to weight and quality,
435. a 465. Fine Irish Hams 565. a 625. • Belfast Bladder Lard
Ms. a 565.; and Waterford 60s. a 625. landed. In Beef or Pork
little doing.

Madras, fair 44d. ; 120 Bengal, good fair 4%c1., fine sd. ; 200
Surat, mid. 41,0 , fair 4%d. ; 150 Bowed, ord. 5%d. good 6%d.
WOOL—By private contract very little is doing, but the new
Wools are now coming in both from Germany and New South
Wales ; the latter will he sold at the end of the month, by public
auction, which will bring, as usual, many buyers to town; after
which we may expect a better tone in the Market generally.
OILS.—In Oils there is still considerable business, particularly
in Linseed Oil ; the supplies of Seed are still on a limited scale.
COCHINEAL.—About 25 serons Cochineal at public sale, the
blacks were taken in Bs. 2d. to Ss. 4d. silvers 7s. 2d: to Is. 4d.; a
small proportion since sold at the withdrawing prices.

public sale this slay 241 bags Saltpetre, all sold 375. 64.1. ordinary
quality, refraction 6% per cent., which is rather lower.
TEA.—Boheas since the declaration have been in very active
demand, and as the trade are unwilling to sell at present they
have advanced t t d. to 2d. per lb. on the sale's cost ; in Congous
there is not much doing, although a small premium is required
when buyers appear.
TOBACCO.—The sales of Tobacco last week were confined to
parcels for Ireland, 4%c. a 5% (I. A parcel of Kentucky at 2 d.
