MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current, March 27.)
Stroen.—To-clay importers of West India displayed
firmness, and refused to sell but at prices equal to those
of Friday; there was, however. little disposition evinced
by refiners or grocers to do business, and the private
purchases amounted to only 150 hhds and tierces. The
assortment at market was small, and chiefly of indifferent
quality. The public sales of Sugar declared for this week
are of little moment, which is to be attributed to stocks
in merchants hands being much reduced.
REFINED.—Today Refined Goods were dealt in with
caution for home consumption; brown Lumps at 40s to
49s 6d, and Standard 50s 6d per cwt. The market fer
Bonded Crnched Sugar is quiet, at former rates.
Metramus.--This afternoon Mauritius Sugar was
dealt in with more readiness, and at public sale 3,100
bags sold at full rates•, good and fine yellow fetched 39s
to 40s 6d, low to middling 37s to 383 6d, ordinary to fine
grey 37s to 39s 6d, fine brown 365 to 363 6d, and washed
355 to 38s.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal Sugar was dealt
in with more readiness, and 750 bags at auction sold at
full rates; middling and good white Benares realised
40s 6d to 41s 6d damp and washed 40s to 41s. Of Pe-
nang 123 bags were sold at the full value; middling strong
syrupy yellow went at 36s 6d to 37s 6d, ordinary 355.
105 casks Ceylon went at as to 34s 6d for ordinary
greyish yellow, and at 303 to 323 for brown.
FOREIGN.—This afternoon there was no public sale of
Foreign Sugar, and privately little business was con-
cluded; there are also sellers upon rather lower terms.
MOLASSES.—This afternoon the demand was not better
for East India Treacle, and 124 pkgs at auction were
taken in at 16s per cwt for good quality.
COFFEE.—For public competition on Thursday 400
bags 37 casks Plantation Ceylon Coffee are declared.
To-day there was a fair export demand for Coffee, and
the parcels sold privately ;,realized full rates. Home
dealers continue to operate with caution, and 33s to 34s
per cwt is the value of native Ceylon. There was no
public sale of any kind.
COCOA.—There is much firmness on the part of holders
of West India, and none has been offered at pubblic sale.
By private treaty much inquiry existed, and former
rates are well kept up. Trinidad red is worth 42s to
455, fine 46s to 475, and low to fine grey 40s to 435.
Foreign is wanted, and the parcels sold were at 27s to
28s 6d. None has been offered at public sale, and pri-
vately a less amount is on offer.
TEA.—Holders of black are not disposed to accept
lower rates. On the part of the trade little disposition
has been manifested to do business. The value of law
and good ord Congou is 71c1 to Sid per lb. Green has
been dealt in with caution, and there are sellers rather
under former rates; there is also an increased amount on
offer. For Scented and Pekoe Tea the market has a dull
aspect, and prices are on the decline. Public sales are
declared for Thursday, at present the quantity is 17,000
pkgs. For the sth of April 1,150 pkgs Assam.
RICE.—The public sales of Rice declared comprise
2,000 bags of Java, 2,000 pockets, 774 bgs Bengal, and
100 trcs of Carolina. To-day East India Rice was dealt
in with greater freedom by private treaty. Several
parcels were sold; mid white Bengal 93 6d, and pinky
Madras 7s 9d per cwt.
SAGO FLOUR.—The demand is good, and 420 bags at
auction sold at 16s 6d to 175 6d per cwt.; these aro
higher rates.
SALTPETRE.—There has been an active demand for
rough both for home consumption and exportation; the
rates obtained are also rather above those current pre-
viously. At auction 1,000 bags of Calcutta went briskly.
3f to 5i per cent. refraction realised 28s 6d to 295, and
17i per cent. 28s to 28s 6d. British Refined 31s 6d to
32s per cwt. For Nitrate of Soda prices are on the ad-
vance, and rule at 12s 6d to 13s per cwt.
INDIGO.—This afternoon a public sa!e of 88 serons of
Guatemala Indigo went at full rates. Sobres realized
3s 6d to 3s I ld, and Cortes 2s 10d to 33 5d per lb. The
quantity of Java Indigo declared for public sale by the
Dutch Trading Company is 5,400 pkgs.
Entine—There has been much demand for Valencia
Raisins, and on the part of holders there is firmncse.
The rates obtained are 38s to 395, and for prime 39s 6d
to 405 per cwt. Denia met with little attention, and the
rates taken are 29s to 30s. The stiff prices asked for
Ele me caused the sales to be of little moment. Cur-
rants met with little attention for. exportation, but home
dealers have been
holdersera to afifair extent at 35s to 40s
per cwt, at which
