(From the London New Price Current of July 31.)
SUGAR.—There has been a considerable falling off in
the demand for British Plantation Sugar this week ;
arrivals have come in more freely, 6,650 hhds and tres
having been imported since last Friday, which is 1,825
Scc., more than during the same time last year, have
caused both grocers and refiners to buy with caution of all
descriptions, and barely sufficient for their immediate
wants ; the merchants, however, have refused to submit to
lower rates, and our quotations remain the same as on
Friday last ; in some cases, however, a reduction of Gd
per cwt has been submitted to : the purchases for the three
market days have amounted to only 800 hhds and trcs.
Jamaica of very dark brown quality rather moist but grainy
has been sold at 745, and low middling soft Antigua at
82s per cwt. There has been no public sale. The stock
by the last return was 17,742 hhds, &c. less than last year ;
this circumstance, together with the question being finally
settled, that no alteration will be made this year in the
Duties on Foreign Sugar, cause some holders of West
India, Mauritius, and Bengal, to be sanguine in their ex-
pectations. The deliveries of B. P. last week were 358
hhds, &c. less than during the same time last year. The
average price is 57s lid, in 1838 it was 39s 41cl, and in
1839, 38s 64(1 per cwt.
At public sale, 80 hhds Barbadoes went at a reduction
on the rates of the last auction of is 6d to 2s ; middling
to good middling yellow sold at 81s Gd to 83s 6d, good to
fine 84s to 86s per cwt.
This afternoon the demand for British Plantation was
very limited either for grocery or refining purposes, and
rather lower rates were submitted to. The total sales for
the week amount to barely 1,000 hhds and tierces, at
prices generally 6d, and in some cases Is under those of
this day week.
REFINED.-The home trade have purchased very spa.
ringly of all descriptions of Refined Goods this week, and
prices have fully given way Is, standard lumps at 108 s 6d
to 109 s. Tittlers and Hamburgh Loaves 109 s to Ills,
fine 112 s to 114 s, good fine brown lumps 104 s to 108 s,
common old make lO2s to 103 s per cwt. Treacle com-
mon at 42s to 42s 6d ; Patent 43s to 445, best old make
44s 6d to 45s Gd per cwt. Pieces have maintained pre-
vious rates. Bastards at 2s decline. Bonded Crushed
Sugar at 34s 6d. Loaves 14 lbs at 38s to 38s 6d, 14J lbs
39s to 39s 6d. Treacle at 14s 6d to 15s per cwt.
Dutch Crushed Sugar here at 32s 9d, and at Amsterdam
3ls 3d per cwt.

MAURITIUS.. This afternoon the trade evinced little
desire to purchase at a public sale of 7.607 bags ; a third
part only of which was disposed of Is under former rates;
fine yellow went at 853 to 86s; middling to good, Bls to 84s ;
low middling, 80s to 80s 6d ; fine brown, 78s 6d to 79s 6d ;
♦ery low, 63s to 64s per cwt since which, however, the
chief has been sold at the buying in prices.
EAST INDIA.--iMan►lla at former rates, 24s 6d having
been paid for good brown, and 25s to 25s tid for middling
yellow. Java has supported late rates. Siam, small par-
cels at 25s to 283 6d for white, and 233 6d to 253 for yet.
low and grey.

This afternoon the demand was dull for Bengal, at a
reduction on last sale's rates of is per cwt; low to fine
white sold at 82s 6d to 86s, damps and washed 79s 6d to
to 84s 6d per cwt.

Foi!sioN.—Yellow liavannah of fair quality of old im-
portatton at 255. 1,164 boxes were taken in at 26s ; 27s
for middling to fine quality but the whole has since been
sold for Koningsberg at 25s 6d per cwt. White, former
rates have been maintained. For 86 casks Surinam Mus-
co,adoes 24s has been paid for arrival.
illotAssEs.—ln West India few sales have been made,
but former rates have been maintained.
COFFEE.-The market for British Plantation Coffee
has been very inactive, particularly since the withdrawallof
the Customs' Daties Bill, and the declaration on the part
of the Government that no change would ba made
in the Coffee duties this session ; this has ren-
dered prices little better than nominal, and
has produced much dissatisfaction to parties
connected with the trade ; by private contract nothing
has been done, nor has any public sale been attempted
since Wednesday ; on that and the previous market day
220 casks and 230 bags were offered, a small part only of
which found buyers 2s under former rates.

This afternoon there was no demand for Coffee for hose
consumption ; by private treaty and at public sale, 9,1
casks 77 barrels, and 20 bags I3ritish Plantation were all
withdrawn for the want of bidders; in fact in the preserlt
heavy state of the market prices must be regarded as
nominal.

TEA. —ln the early part of the week the market for Free
Trade Tea was quiet, and prices gave way ld par lb for
Congou and Twankay, this was to be attributed to the
arrival of the Earl Balcarras. from China, with 1,700,a)°,
lbs, and the Abercrombie Robinson, with 1,500,000 lbs 0'
Tea ; but during the last two days the trade have
come forward more freely, and a fair demand bas
existed for nearly all descriptions for cash, prices have lIV
proved, and now differ little from those of last -FrideP
Common Congou and Twankay have been most in request'
the former at 2s lid a 2s 2d, and the latter 2s ld a 2s
At the commencement of the week the speculative mar e'
was dull ; and Company's Congou declined to 2s cash,
but during the last few days a good many contracts her
been entered into, and prices have advanced to 2a 11
to 2s lid cash. The Penang has arrived at Liverpool,
with about 400,000 lbs. The stock of Tea in the United
Kingdom is now nearly 53,000 000 lbs; the deliveries
continue large, and last week amounted to 485,000110'
For sale on Monday 9,000 pkgs are declared. At Liver,'
pool this week there has been a large demand for Tea, and
prices have advanced to 2s 2d for common Congou.
This afternoon there was a pretty good demand for Fre,!
Trade Tea, for cash, common Congou was not obtaings"
under 2s 2d, and Twankay 2e lid per lb ; Compiles
Congou held firmly at 2s lid to 2s 2d cash.
Rica.—This afternoon East India Rice was less in r„Ae'
quest, and prices were not so firm; at public sale 2,1'
bags Bengal, and 400 Java were offered, the fornler,
nearly all sold, but at a reduction on former rates of 3"
to 6d per cwt ; fine bold white went at 15s, good lot
