LONDON MARKETS.
(Frera the London New Price Cterrext of yesterday.)

SUGAR.-In consequence of the holydays there has been
little business transacted in our markets; there have been
only two days on which Sugars were on sale ; the buyers
still appeared anxious to purchase, but, after a few new
boards were cleared off, scarcely any samples of good
quality appeared; of course we cannot quote any advance
generally, but the few sales made were at very high prices.
The stock of West India Sugar in London is now 10,592
hhds. and tra., which is 4,748 less than last year. The
delivery of West India Sugar, last week, 2,188 hhds. and
trs., being 658 less than last year. Of Mauritius, the de-
livery is 5,960 bags, being 3,940 less than in the corres-
ponding week of 1830. This day the market remains
shut. The parcels of refined goods taken for shipment
have been confined to the very low Lumps and to fine
Lumps and Loaves, 755. and 765., the tnid. descriptions
have been completely neglected. Several sales of Crashed
are reported at 355. ; the market is firm, and the holders
ask high prices. The wholesale Grocers have been pur-
chasing goods for the home consumption very freely ; no
alteration can be stated in the currency.—The Refined
market this afternoon is steady; Molasses dull, 235. 6d.
a 245.

FOREIGN SUGARS.—The inquiries after Foreign Sugar
continue, but only about 100 chests Havanuah have been
sold at 245. 6d., good yellow.—Sales of Havannah Sugar
are reported to the extent of 400 chests; good white 345.
to 355.

EAST INDIA SUGARS.—The scarcity of West India
Muscovades has occasioned a good demand for Mauritius,
the holders are, in consequence, receiving a small advance
on the late public sales. In Bengal and other East India
Sugars few sales are reported. Average price of Sugar
265. 2d. per cwt.
COFFEE.—The East India Coffee continues in demand,
2,370 bags Cheribon at public sale went off Is. a Is. 6d.
higher, good 445. ord. mixed 38s 6.1. ; 482 bags St. Do-
amigo 40s. a 40a. 6d. ; considerable purchases by private
contract are reported at 405., and of Brazil at 395. a 40s.
In British Plantation descriptions there is no alteration.
The inquiries after Coffee are continued this afternoon, and
the market looks still more firm. It is calculated that the
late sales by private contract exceed 2,500 bags, they are
chiefly St. Domingo. The deliveries in London last week
are extensive, 260 casks and 3,340 bags and barrels ;
above 3,000 of the latter were for export.
Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDs.—In Rum there is
little variation is price ; the m irket continues very heavy,
some purchases of the lover qualities of Brandy are reported
at Sc. 7d. In Geneva there is no alteration. The only
purchase of Rum reported is a parcel of proofs free on
board below 2s. More sales of Geneva are reported
2s. 6d. a 2s. 7d. on the quay. Deliveries of Rum last
week 597 puns. and hhds., of which 342 were for home
consumption. _ . .

Hrwir, FLAX, AND TAl.Low.—The Tallow market has
fallen 3s. a 4s. per cwt. since Tuesday last, owing to the
sellers hiving paid the differences of their contracts; that
is, if they contracted to deliver Tallow about 401. they
paid the difference between that price and the price on the
spot, which was 50s. and 50s. 64. ; on these arrange-
ments being completed the quotation fell to 475. and
475. 6(1., which is now the market price on the spot, and
for September the contract price is now 40s. In Hemp
or Flax there is no material alteration.

Faturr.--At public sale damaged Cephalonia Currants
694. and 70s. for the caroteels, butts 675. and 68s.
Tai►.—The market is very steady ; Boheas may he had
a little under the sale's cost, Hysous command a small profit.
Cocoa.—Trinidad Cocoa, good quality 50s. a 555.

COTTON.—The export orders have been very consider-
able, but they appear completed for the present. The sales
are considerable, the prices unvaried.
hthico.—The market continues very firm, on account
of the approaching sale being limited to about 3,500 chests.
SALTPETRE.—There are more buyers of Srltpetre at 458. ,
but few sellers. The market assumed more firmness yes-
terday, on account of the march of the Aust,ian troops into
Bologna, and the fall of the French Funds. The market
previously had become very heavy.
Tonacco. —Further sales of ordinary quality, 200 hogs-
heads are reported at 2d. and 211.
Orts.—The demand for Seed Oil is extensive, a consi-
derable proportion is for export. There are more inquiries
after Whale Oil ; best Southern Oil 341. 10s. and 351.
SILK.—The to irket continues very flat, both in Italians
and Bengal', but without any alteration in prices.
