(From the London New Price Current of July 17.)
&amt.—The West India Sugar market has presented
a quiet appearance during the week, the demand from the
grocers has been very limited, bath for brown and yellow
deseriptionsohey buying barely ample for their immediate
wants; and for refining purposes few sales have been made,
the merchants however remain firm, and have refused to sell
excepting at the rates previously established ; in a few cases
lio*ever as Is usually the case in a flat market a slight reduc-
tion has been submitted to; but it is not stifficient to warrant
us to alter our quotations, the purchases for the three mar..
ket days have amounted to only 1,100 hhds and tierces,
including 59 hhds 25 tierces new Barbadoes at auction,
which sold heavily, and former rates Were barely main-
tained—fine yellow went at Bds to 85s ed, good eas 6d to
845, low to middling 81s to 82s 61 per cwt E by private

pn
,Poi7eign ,usiar this lesition, na.itied the market tor West
:nom Sugar to be quiet again to-day, and the demand
from both grocers and refiners was very limited, the pur-
chase§ not eteeeding 400 hhds stud tiefdes,l but the ritcr-
chants remain firm, and the rates established on Pride,- last
were fully supported at the close of the market for all de-
scriptions. The sales for the week amount to 1,500 hhds
and tierces. The accounts from the West Indies by the
packet this morning are of an unfavourable tenour with re-
spect to the Sugar crOpS.

steady rates, viz. 41s, and one low 41s 6d—the quality

COFFEE.—There has been an increased demand from the
home trade for clean descriptions of British Plantation,
and an extensive business has been transacted this week at
a further advance of 3s to 4s; unclean sorts have been in
much better request, and prices have also improved 2s
per cwt.
This afternoon the demand was active for Coffee for
home consumption : the public sales were well attended,
and consisted of 1,196 bags of Ceylon, 200 casks, 44 bar-
rels, 20 bags British Plantation, and 503 bags 160 bales
Mocha. British Plantation nearly all sold at a further

posed of 30 to 36 per cent. overproof at 6s to 6s 6:1, and

Brandy has suffered no further depression, but the demand
has been limited. Geneva has sold steadily at Is 10d to
Is lld for export. For British Corn Spirits the demand
has been good at 10s 2d per gallon.
TEA.—The demand for Free Trade Tea for actual con-
sumption has considerably improved since we last wrote,
and some disposition has also been evinced on the part of
speculators to purchase; the merchants have displa) cd
more firmness, and prices have improved for all de-
scriptions.

The monthly sale declared for next Monday contains the
small quantity of only 6,480 packages, but it is expected
that it will be increased to 12,000 packages by other sales
to follow. In the speculative market there has not been
much business doing, but there arc not sellers of Company's
Congou under 2s Id cash, being an advance on former
rates of 2d per lb.
Since the public sales there has been an active de-
mand for Free Trade of all descriptions for actual con-
sumption ; the rates established thereat have been fully
maintained, and in some cases a small advance has been
given for black; the Trade generally appear disposed to
get into steels at existing rates. The deliveries are on
the increase, and last week amounted to 444,000 lbs.
To-day a good demand has prevailed for Free Trade
Tea; prices have further improved, and now rule Id above
those of the public sales: several large parcels were dis-
pond of for cash and for actual consumption—for common
Congou 2s 01-d to 2s Id was paid, and for Twankay 2s to
2s trd. In Company's Congou there was a fair business
doing at 2s id cash.
This afternoon the market closed firmly for Tea of all
sorts; Company's
