Sreee.-There continues to be a good and general demand
for West India Raw Sugar from the grocers and refiners, the
sales last week amounting to 2,600 hhds. and trs., at an ad-
vance on previous rates of 6d.: St. Vincents, good grey for
the pan sold at 655. ; Grenada, Tobago ant Demerara, good
)ellow for the scale 65e. a 675. ; Jamaica brown 635. 6d. a
645., fine grocery yellow 695. Owing to there having been
only one arrival from the West Indies since this day week, and
the deliveries from the docks continuing large, the stock is now
less than it was last week ; not above 1,500 hhds, remain in
first hands unsold, although 9,200 With., &c. more have been
received during th,eigast four months this year than the last.
The stock of West 'Tndia Sugars is now 10,146 bhds. and trs.,
being 1,218 more than last year. The stock of Mauritius is
now 93,468 bags, which is 18,424 less than last year, including
the East India Dock. The delivery of West India last week
was 2.191 hhds. and trs., which is 212 less than last year. The
delivery of Mauritius was 7,902 bags, being 1,974 less than
the corresponding week of last year (including the East India
Dock.) The stock of British Plantation, it will perceived, is
this day 1;209 hhds. and trs. more than in 1835. On Tues.
day next there will, however, be a considerable decrease,
owing to being without arrivals frdm the West Indies, and the
large quantity landed this week last year, being nearly 6,500
hhds., &c. The quantity on show this morning was again
small, not exceeding 1,000 hbds. There has baen .but little
doing in British Plantation Sugar to-day, owing to the holders
demanding higher prices. than on Friday, and which they suc-
ceeded in obtaining in some instances, but higher rates being
required, has much checked the Market ; the sales this after-
noon are only 200 hhds. and trs. The demand for Refined
goods by the grocers all throughout last week was extensive
at an advance on the previous rates of the Market of Is. ; the
shipping descriptions also rose to the same extent, and had
there been a supply at Market sufficient for the wants of
buyers a great deal of business would have been done, the in-
quiries being considerable; sales of fine Crushed. at 455. Gd.,
and large parcels of Lumps to pass the standard, to be deli-
vered in six weeks at 85i. a 665. 6J ; few Sugar houses have
now goods of any description left to offer; sales of Dutch
Crushed Sugar made at 425. Gd., but no farther sellers, at
that price. This afternoon there is less disposition shown
on the part of the shippers to buy, and prices are a shade
lower, sellers at 86s. long price for lumps to pass the
standard, which is 455. on board; grocery goods continue in
good request at former rates.
I\IADRITILIS.-ID addition to the quantity offered at public
sale, a good deal has been disposed of by private contract;
at auction on Friday 5,606 bags went at fully previous
rates for the brown and good yellow descriptions, but a few
lots of fine coloury went about Gd. cheaper; breves good
yellows sold at 61s. a 675. 61., fine white 68s, 'a
