MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of last Evening.)
SUGAR.-In the early part of the week the transactions in
the British Plantation market were principally confined to
the good and fine yellow descriptions taken by the grocers,
which owing to the supply continuing short brought rather
higher prices, whilst brown and low yellow sorts were sold
on rather easier terms, but since then buyers have come forward
more freely ; there has been a good and general demand arid
the depression which the latter kinds suffered has recovered
itself; the refiners have also evinced a better disposition to do
business during the last two days, and a pretty good demand
has prevailed at the rates of Friday last, the private purchases
yesterday reached 1,500 hhds and trs. At public sale 200
hhds Barbadocs sold with avidity, good and fine yellow de-
scriptions at 6d a Is advance, whilst low and mid sorts main-
tained their former currency, fine went at 65s a 665, mid to
good 59s 6d a 645, ord 56s a 575. The importation this year
up to the 31st October, has exceeded that of last by
18,200 hhds, and 5,660 trs acd brls, the stock at that time was
16,846 hh(ls, 3,692 trs, &c., larger, but when compared to
the year 1836, the difference is not so considerable, particu-
larly in the stock.

This afternoon there was much activity in the market,
grocers as well as refiners purchased very freely of both brown
and yellow descriptions ; the quantity sold reached 1,000 hhds
and trs at prices fully equal to those of yesterday ; the sales
for the week amount to 3.800 hhds and trs; for auction on
Tuesday, 120 hhds Barbacloes are declared.
REFINED.—From the grocers there has been a good demand
for both common and the better descriptions, and rather
higher prices have been obtained for the former ; sales of good
strong lumps have been made at 745, fair 725, brown 70s a
71s. For export there have been several inquiries, and 35s
offered for double crushed in the docks, at which there are no
sellers, 35s 6d being now required.
MAURITIUS.—There has been rather more business doing in
this article, and prices have improved 6d a Is for good and fine
yellow descriptions ; brown and low yellow sorts have
maintained their former currency ; at public sales 947 bags
sold readily, fine yellow at 63s a 63s 6d, good 59s 6d, mid
545, very ordinary 525. The import this year is 56,000 bags
greater than in 1837, and the stock is 15,000 bags more than
the last year at this period, 5,600 bags have arrived since our
last, supplies of the new crop may be looked for about the
middle of January next. No auction is yet declared but one
may be expected shortly.
EAST INDlA.—Bengal has been in good request for home
consumption, and prices have improved Is for coloury descrip-
tions. 2,198 bags at public sale sold with spirit; fine white at
66s 6d a 67s ; mid. to good, 63s a 66s ; the quantity offering
for sale is still small. In export the operations privately have
been trivial, and 700 bags Manilla at public sale were
bought in above their value, low yellow 235, no offers being
made within is of the last sale. The arrivals this year of all
descriptions under this head have been upwards of 109 NO
bags greater than in 1837. The stocks of Manilla and iam
are much larger than at this time last year, but of Bengal it
is rather less.

NloLassEs.—West India have been in good request at
former rates ; s des of Demerara have been made at 255, St.
Vincent's 265, and Antiguas 28s per cwt.

have been offered, a part only of which was sold at prices
Is 6d a 2s under -those of last Friday, for ord to fine ord de-
