FOREIGN.—There has been no public sale of any descrip-
tion ; and none is at present announced. White Havannah
prices are uncertain. Holders of yellow not inclined to take
the late reduced rates. For good white sorts of Brazil the
merchants are not disposed to reduce their pretensions ; for
public sale 400 chests Bahia are declared for next Friday.—
Since this slay week 298 chests, &e., Bahia, 611 hhds 55 bar-
rels Porto Rico have been received.

COrFEE.—The grocers have evinced much desire to purchase
clean descriptions of British Plantation since we last wrote;
middling sorts have been the most in request, but the demand
has been restricted in consequence of the short supply at mar-
ket the parcels disposed of by private treaty have been at
rather higher prices. Unclean kit,ds have been taken more freely
at former rates; there has been no public sale, and only 50 casks
Berbice are declared, only 82 casks have been received since
our last report. The stccks held by the trade are very
small, especially of middling and good clean kinds. In the
early part of the week the demand was limited for nearly all
descriptions of East India and Cape Coffee for home use, and at
the public sales of St. Domingo consisting of 5,100 bags, prices
gave way 3s to 4s for common, and Is for other descriptions ;
2,100 bags consisted of really bold even fine quality, and fetched
70s, the remainder good ordinary sold at 62s to 62s 6d, and
one pile very low mixed with stones and dust 57s to 58s 6d ;
during the last two days, however, there has been a
much better demand for Coffee from the Grocers as well as
from speculators, and prices have assumed an upward tendency,
the common descrptions of Domingo disposed of at the
auctions this week have been resold at 2s to 3s profit; for auc-
tion on Tuesday 1,000 bags are declared, and 1,200 bags of
other kinds at 9d duty. Java has been much sought after,
but the short supply has restricted business privately, and
buyers have been c,.mpelled to pay 35s to 86s for parcels of good
pale quality; at auction 90 casks fetched 903 to 94s for
very superior green and pale yellow; this kind of Coffee is
much esteemed by the trade ; 1,770 bags are declared for sale
on Thursday. Cuba has been sought after, and rather higher
rates offered, but the small quantity at market has prevented
operations of moment. Ceylon is wanted, but there is little to
be had, small parcels of good ordinary have yielded 109 s :
220 bags are declared for sale on Tuesday. The home trade
are much in want of Mocha, and, the supply being small,
holders have obtained the high rates of 150 s to 152 s for fine
yellow, and 130 s to 145 s for middlmg to good, and there is
nothing of sound quality to be bought under 130 s ; accounts
from Bombd state that all parcels had been bought up ; about
500 bales are on their passage. In Brazil large purchases
have been m,Pie privately, and holders have obtained prices
which they Xuld not last week, good to fine ordinary quality
has fetched 55s to 655, and very superior clean 68s to 70s,
the latter kind is the most preferred. Laguayra and Padang
have commanded prices rather above those of the late
auctions, there are not many parcels offering for sale. Fo
some piles of Batavia 78s to 79s has been paid privately for
good ordinary : at auction 52 casks ord sold at 655. The im-
proved demand for Coffee is to be attributed to the reaction
in the Tea market ; the arrivals since we last wrote have
been 7,600 bags, 960 of which consists of Ceylon. Foreign is
held firmly, the stock being small, but the demand has been
limited; previous rates, however, have been maintained. By
private contract the sales in St. Domingo have been only
10-d
bags at 49s ; 180 bags at auction fetched 488 to 49s forgood
ordinary mixed pale, In Brazil the private sales are hot worth
