MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the Antdon New Price Current of May 25.)
Surcart.— Of West India the arrivals have het n ex-
tensive since this day week, whilst of other descriptions
several parcels have la, en received ; of all sorts there are
heavy arrivals expected. It is now certain that the im-
portation of Sugar will this season far exceed that of the
former one. Although several of the brewers and distil-
lers in the United Kingdom are working from Sugar, yet
merchants have been eager sellers, and having abundantly
supplied the market, produced a fall in the value of all
sums ; indeed the quantity brought forward has ex-
ceeded the wants of the home trade as well as exporters.
West India has been purchased with caution ft r all pur-
pos,s, akhough a reduction on former rates of 6d per
cwt has beets submitted to. To day the Sugar market
was closed on account of the Whitsurt holida3s, but
business will be renewed to-morrow with large public
sales.

REFINED.—Since our last report there has been less
activity in the market, whilst the refiners have been mare
inclined to realise, and submitted ti lower rates for all
descriptions of goods; but the home trade have operated
with caution. Although the consuption is very large, yet
prices rule high in comparison with these that
exist for Raw Sug'tr, and the refin rs are
making preparations to produce an increased quantity.
The operations in Bastards have been upon a small
scale only, and there is more desire to sell, as the stock
is accumulating. Pieces have been in excellent request.
Bonded Crushed Sugar met with less attention for ex-
port, and there are sellers upon reduced terms ; only a
moderate bu3iness has been transacted fur immediate or
forward delivery ; prices are, however, encouraging to
the refiners, ard, in consequence, they are producing
an increased quantity. In Treacle several iurchases
have been made. Net Lumps moved off slowly. Dutch
Crushed Sugar has been only in moderate demand
B lgien is little wanted. Fur Loaves made free tinder
bond the export demand is not quite so.good, but the
supply being small of all sorts we hare very little varia-
tion to notice in the value. _

MAllRlTlM—Merchants continue to be ready sellers, I
as the arrivals are not all in for the season, whilst
there is a heavy stock here, much exceeding that of last
year up to this time. There are sellers by private treaty
of all sorts. and at prices rather under those that,
existed previously, but grocers and refiners have operated
with caution. --
EAST INDlA.—lmporters of Bengal. Sugar have been
anxiou, sellers, and having abundantly supplied the
market, produced a decline on previous rates of is per
cwt ; the demand, hewever, bus been good. and the
whole offered at public sale, amounting to 4.193 bags,
found buyers. Of Sugar there is a large stock here.
FoaeiGN.—Since our last reprt holders of Foreign
Sugar have been eager sellers, and-ahundantly supplied
the market. Although they submitted to a reduction
on former rates of Is per cmt, still only a limiten demand
has been experienced from the home trade, whilst ex-
porters and our refiners working under bond have
operated with reluctance. The quantity brought for-
ward has been greater than for some time, and exceeded
the wants of all parties. At auction 953 bags of China
were sold.

COFFEE.—Of West India none has been submitted to
public competition since our last report, but privately
there are sellers of all descriptions at a further decline
in prices; the borne trade, however, operated with re-
luctance. whilst the stock is accumulating, and West
India is still dearer than any other kind of Coffee. Plan-
tation Ceylon is effered rather under previous rates; still
the home trade have operated with caution in all sorts by
private treaty, and the parcels offered at auction amount-
ing to 2.000 bags were only in part sold. Ceylon is
cheaper than any other kind of Coffee, and the con-
sumption is in consequence by far the greatest. Mocha
is little wanted, and prices tend downwards. None has
been offered at auction, whilst by private treaty only
small parcels have been sold.
TEA.—Prices have not improved for black Tea, as
there is yet a lsrg, supply, but the demand is on the
increase. In green many purchases have been made,
bur. the re is a heavy stock, and ready sellers at former
low qaotati,ns . the common and middling sorts are the
most pres.ed for sale. There has been little desire
evinced to operate in P. koe Teas, low as prices are.
None has been offered at auction since our last report,
whil4, daring thlt time 15,000 pkgs have arrived, and
duty was pail on 460,46011)i.
Rim—To-day the market had a very dull appearance
for all kinds of nice, and there were sellers upon reduced
terms. White Bengal of low to fine quality can be ob-
tained at 21s to 22s and yellow 20s to 20s 6d per

cwt.
SPICES.—To-day, at public sale, 590 bags of Surat
Pepper were sold at rather lower rates. sez.:—Good
clean black at 2/1 I to 24ii, fine ditto lid to 2il, and sea
damaged 21(1 to 211 per lb.
COCIIINEA.I.--This afternoon there was a better de. ii
mend, and 59 bags of Honduras at public stile were sold
at 4s 8d to 53 Id for ordinary to good silvers, which is
the full value. 1
SPlRlTS.—lmporters of Jamaica Rum manifest firm-
ness, and insist upon previous rates for all descriptions,'
but the home and export demand has fallen off, and only
a limited business has been transacted since this day
week. Leeward Island is held for 3a 4d to 3s 5d proof
strength, but few parcels have been sold, and the stock is
accumulating. East India has been operated in with
caution. For Demeraraof strong quality the demand has
been limited, but 4s to 4s 8d per gallon are the rates insisted
upon, although there is a large supply. There are fur
ther arrivals of limn; still the stock is yet less than it
was last year. The deliveries are improving; still fir
home consumption or exportation they do nut come up
to those of the previous year, whilst quotations are
higher by Is 6d to 2s per gallon. Prices of all sorts
are highly remunerating to the importers. That the
importation will be greater this year than in the previous
one, there is every appearance, and an impression
exists that present prices cannot be sustained. Holders
of Brandy are unwilling to further reduce their prices
although the stock is large, and arrivals being near at
hand, but exporters, as well as the home trade have
operated with caution in all sorts. The home deliveries
ire, however, still exceeding those of last year. Geneva
is wanted for exportation. For British Corn Spirits the
demand is very go id at the late advanced rates of 1 Is ed
!'or English, nett cash ; Scotch and Irish Ila 5d to
I Is 6+l.
INDIGO.—The quarterly sale of East India was brought
to ael iee this day. The quantity declared was 14,340
chests. For sort e time previous to the opening of the
sale the extreme distress prevailing both in this country
arid on the continent, caused by the scarcity and
extraordinary high prices of food, and the
consequent derangement of the Money Market,
threw such a vloom on commerce generally that
all transactions were stopped excel)t for the abso-
lute wants of cone urripti n. The prospects there-
fore for such a large sale were most gloomy, and it was
evident that to effect sales to any extent a material
decline must be submitted to. The attendance both of
' foreign and home buyers was unprecedentedly small,
and although proprietors gave strung support uy with-
drawing and buying in largely we do not remember
so uneven and flat a sale: during the first three days
prices were most irregular, and varied from 4d to
6d discount on the February sale tor•ll,egals, and 31 to 5 i
for Madras and Kurpahs, but +itice:ttieu buyers appeared
to have more confidence, and the sale proceeded with a
better feeling at, in some inst inces, a sight improvement
in prices; this was particularly the case for the stnad
quantity of good and fine shipping qualities left in the
c italogue, the bulk of those sorts having been withdrawn.
The proportion of Madras was large, and th assot ttnent
rath r better in luelity then usu .1; the demand, however,
appeared limited to the ordin iry and low sorts at and
ender 2s 3(1, and for a few lots of very flee quality; the
