SimAn.—The market for all kinds of Raw Sugar
continued very dull to-day, the buyers being desirous
to purchase for immediate consumption only, and
prices were on the decline. Of West India Muscovades
the private sales did not exceed 150 hds and trcs, and
prices were the turn lower than on Friday. A public
sale of 100 hhds, &c. Barbadoes went heavily, and a part
only was sold at from 61s to 70s for low to fine bright
yellow, being 6d to is lower, except for the finest
samples, which brought previous rates.

15,000 consisted of black, and 14,000 green. .41 the

dealers and others to purchase, and the biddings were
brisk, but more particularly for black Teas, which
generally supported the advanced prices recently
established in the market ; indeed Cougou brought id.
to Id advance ; but green sorts were in some cases
rather cheaper, Hyson and Twankay being tile most

depressed ; the former was Id, and the latter id per lb
lower, while Imperial brought 2d to 3d per lb advanc.e,
