THE WEEK.

Our daily reports of this market will have shown that very little busi-
ness has been done ; 1,500 hhds. of B. P. Sugar have been sold. We
quote no variation in the prices of any kind of Raw orslatefined Sugar
from those of last week. Coffee unaltered, but drooping in price,
and exceedingly little business done. Tea at public sale has gone
heavy and lower; we should say that the prices on an average all round
are lid. per lb. lower now than these of last sale. Spices have been
drooping. Rice has been easier. Rum has receded a little. Cocoa is
without variation.

The imports have been very light all the week. The cause of the pre.
sent dulness in the markets perplexes many persons, as we always cx,
pect to be busy at this season of the year.
For next week there is very little business advertised at present.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, APRIL 6.
The sales of this day amount to 3,500 bags, which met with pur.
chasers at our last quotations. The market still continues quiet, and
we close the week with a flat tone.
