MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current, Nov. 16.)
SUGAR.—To-day West India Sugar met with little
attention for home trade purposes, and in some cases the
rates acceded to were 6d per cwt under those current
previously. The purchases were only 420, making for
the week 1,470 hhds, &c. For all sorts of Sugar the
market closes with a quiet aspect.
REFINED.—To-day Refined Sugar was dealt in with
caution by home dealers, and a desire was evinced to
sell brown Lumps at 475, and fair grocery at 48s per cwt.
There is a fair supply of goods at market. Bonded
Crushed Sugar is held with firmness at late tems.
MAURITIUS.—To-day there was no public sale of
Mauritius, and the small parcels sold by private treaty
wore at barely former rates.
EAST INDLL—This afternoon the public sales of 3,617
ba gs Bengal Sugar went off quietly at barely former
rates, but nearly all sold; fine strong yellow at 42s 6d to
43s 6d, greyish ditto 44s to 44s 6d, fine soft yellow 37s
6(il, low to middling 31s to 335, and brown 29s to 30s 6d.

16,3, and brown 29s 6d to 30s 6d per cwt.
' FORBEGN.—To-day there was little disposition evinced
to operate in Foreign Sugar by treaty. Of 587 hhds, 4
trcs, 247 barrels offered at public sale, a part only found
b,ayers at barely former rates ; low to middling yellow '
went at 37s 6d to 38s 6d, good to fine 39s to 483.
MOLABSES.—OnIy limited purchases have been made
this week in West India, still holders are not disposed
t() press sales, and require 15s to 18s per cwt for low to
6ne quality, whilst lower rates are not expected to pre-
y ail. Large parcels of Bengal Treacle cannot be pur-
chased under 14s per cwt. For Honey prices have still
a downward tendency.
I Cocos.—The market continues to be plentifully sup-
plied with West India. The parcels offered at public
a ale have amounted to 646 bags, but a small portion only
found purchasers; Trinidad, red at from 40s to 455,
grey 37s to 425, and damaged 34s to 38s 6d per cwt.:
the chief portion of the supply consisted of the lower
kinds. Of Grenada 200 bags in part found buyers at
from 36s to 39s per cwt. By private treaty the business
concluded has been upon a larger scale at 26s to 27s
per cwt.
CollEn.—This afternoon the market for both ship-
ping and home trade kinds of Coffee :presented a quiet
aspect, whilst the rates accepted were generally rather
under those current previously. At public sale 20
casks Jamaica were sold; low middling at 53, fine
and fine fine ordinary 47s to 50s, and triage 38s 6d;

casks 123 bags were only in part sold, good 61s to 655,
middling 55s to 595, and other sorts 44s to 545. There
sire sellers of good ordinary Native at 45s 6d to 46s by
private treaty; still few buyers are to be met with.
Txi.—There has been a good business concluded in
Green this week, and rather higher rates have been paid
for low and mid sorts. The market for Black remains
in a quiet state, town and country dealers still operate
with caution, yet holders are firm, and will not sell but
at full rates. The value of low and good ord Congou is
Bid to 9d, medium kinds 9d to is Id, and superior is 2d
to Is 9d. There is still a brisk sale for Scented Caper
and Orange Pekoe, whilst former rates are, however,
well kept up.

treaty in East India. At public sale 494 bags were
only in part sold at barely former rates—Bengal, mid

however, rather rather lower rates.
SPIRIIIIB.—OnIy limited purchases have been made in
Jamaica Rum this week by shippers and home dealers,
yet holders are firm and will not sell but at fully late

to 4s. The rates asked for East India
are is 3d to is 3id proof, still only
limied parcels have been disposed of, but other parts of
imports there is firmness. Demerara has been dealt in
with caution at 2s to 2s Sd for 30 to 40 per cent over-
proof. For Leeward Island the rates asked
are is 4id to Is Sid proof, but few buyers are
to be met. The demand for_ _ Brandy has been

much better for all purposes, and higher rates have been
paid, on the part of holders there is also much business.
Geneva is offered at former rates, but met with littlo
attention. In the value of British made Spirits there is
no variation to make know, but the market has a more
active appearance.

sale at lower prices.

fully 6d per cwt. Of 1,850 bags Calcutta offered at
public sale a small part only sold at from 25s to 26s 63

brown 41s 6d to 425, and refined foreign 43s 6d to 43s
