MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(Fro:n Vie London New Price Current of August 6.)
SUGAR.—There has been a considerable falling off in
the demand for British Plantation Sugar this week, and
the market has been in a dull state ; the great increase
in the comparative stocks of Sugar subject to the 24s
duty, and the large shipments that are making at
Calcutta for this market, have caused both grocers
and refiners to purchase very sparingly, and al-
though the merchants have ;submitted to a reduc-
tion on former rates of per cwt, still the quantity
disposed of for the three market days has been only 600
hhds and trs ; there have been no public sales.
To day the market for West India presented a quiet
aspect, refiners as well as grocers operated with much
caution, and the limited business done was at prices in
favour of buyers, making the decline for the week is to
Is Gd per cwt, and the total purchases only 800 hhds and
tierces ; the greater decline has again been on the infe-
rior sorts.

BEFINED.—For refined goods this week, prices have
further given way is per cwt, Standard Lumps at 93s a
93s 6d. Tittlers and Ilambro' Loaves, common 92s to
93e, good 94s to 975, fine 98s to 104 s, brown lumps 91s
to 925, for melting 89s to 90s per cwt. Bastards have
given way, low sorts 47s to 495, mid 50s to 545, good to
fine 553 to 62s per cwt. For Pieces prices are on the decline,
good to fine sorts at 68s to 765, mid 65s to 675, ord 62s to
64s per cwt. Treacle at higher rates for the better sorts ;
common at 25s 6d to 265, ord Patent 26s 6d to 28s,
good 29s to 31, golden syrup 32s to 35s per cwt. Bonded
Crushed Sugar at 30s to 30s 3d for first quality ; Loaves,
101bs, at 33s a 345, and 141bs 32s a 32s 6d per cwt.
Treacle, 13s 3d. The demand has been dull for Bas-
tards and Pieces ; the former we quote 13s to 15s, and
the latter 16s to 20s per cwt. Dutch Crushed Sugar at
28s on board at Amsterdam.

MAURITICTS.—This afternoon the trade operated with
caution, and at the public sale of 5,141 bags, 149 bar-
rels, &c., the biddings were languid, and prices further
declined is per cwt ; fine yellow sold at 63s to 655, good
mid and good 59s to 625, mid 57s to 58s, low dark brown
38s Gd to 40s, low to mid 43s 6d to 49s 6d, good to fine
MS 6d to 55s per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the demand was limited
for Bengal, 5,742 bags, 71 casks, &c. were offered at
public sale, which went off heavily at a decline on pre-
vious rates of Is to Is 6d per cwt, fine crystalized yellow
went at 72s to 80s, fine white 69s to 70s 6d, good 66s 6d
to 68s 6d, middling 63s to 64s 6d, low 60s 6d to 625, mid-
dling to good yellow 5Gs to 58s 6d, ordinary brown 4Cs
To-day there was but a limited demand, but holdel's
refused to take lower rates. At public sale 80 chests,
101 brls, 500 bags Brazil and 200 chests damaged Ha-
vannah were offered ; the former all taken in at full
rates, viz., good to fine brown 15s to 18s., low 14s 6d ;
the latter sold Is to 2s cheaper for white, and fetched
25s Gd to 275.6 d, for mid' to good fair, slightly damaged.
badly damaged 24s 6d, yellow went at 19s to 20s for good
mid, being the full rates.

MoLAsiEs.—A better demand has prevailed for West
India, and a large amount of business has been trans•
acted at full rates, 400 puns have been disposed of, prin-
cipally mid Trinidad, at 245. 6d. per cwt.'
TEA.—This has been a week of great excitement in
the Tea market. Tne furious edict issued by the Em-
peror of China against the English, and the reduced
stocks of Tea in this country, caused both the trade and
speculators to come forward with increased freedom, and
for both black and green descriptions of Free Trade Tea
the demand has been extensive all the parcels
offered for sale have been disposed of, and
the prices paid are 2d to 3d per Ib, above
those of this day week ; Common Congou in large par-
cels for cash has been disposed of at 2s 6d to 2s 6i.d,
blackish leaf rather strong 2s 7d to 2s 71d ; Twankay
ordinary, 2s sid to 2s 6d ; Hyson, common, 2s 9d to 2s
10d, and ordinary Souchong 2s 2d to 2s 4d per lb, upon
which terms some of the merchants will not sell, there being
every appearance, according to the last accounts received
from China, that the season's supply of Tea has been lost,
and that which will be got out will be surreptitiously. Se-
veral orders this week have been prevented from being exe-
cuted owing to the want of parcels offering for sale : the
total stock at all the ports is only adequate to ten months'
consumption. The speculative market has been brisk,
and in Company's Congou an extensive business has been
transacted at advanced rates ; at one period sales of Com-
pany's for cash were made at 2s 7i-cl to 2s 8d with
short prompts, but yesterday prices declined to 2s 7d to
2s 74d cash. The stock at all the ports is now only
30,000,00 lbs, of which 6,000,000 cannot be consumed
in this country, and 11,000,0001bs are held by the trade
and speculators, &c., consequently the quantity available
is only 13,000,0001b5. For public sale on Tuesday 9,000
pkgs are deelared. At the principal Foreign markets
stocks rare small, and prices rule high.
To-day a good demand existed for common sorts of
Free Trade Tea, and prices were firm, Congou at 2s 6d
to 2s 61d, and Twankay 2s 6d per Ib, but in the
better kinds there - was not mach business done ; the
rates previously established have been fully supported ;
Company's Congou met with attention, and a good many
purchases were made at 2s 7kd cash, at which the market
Closed firmly.
COFFEE.—The trade has been anxious to purchase all
clean descriptions of British Plantation Coffee this week,
but the supply being small, has materially operated
against business, and the parcels disposed of privately
have been at an advance on last waek's rates of 2s to 3s.
per-cwt, mid kinds however were the most in request.

To-day the market presented a firm appearance, and
the demand was good from the home trade. The public
sales consisted of 373 bags Ceylon, 64 casks 95 bags
Porto Rico from the Cape, 40 ea;ks British Plantation,
300 bales Mocha, and 477 bags East India of various
sorts ; Ceylon sold briskly at a further advance of
1 s, good ordinary pale went at 755, good or-
dinary dingy coloury 76s Gd to 775, Porto Rico
went at an advance of 4s to ss, middling in
casks at 63s 6d to 655, fine and fine fine ordinary in bags
59s to 625. Plantation sold rather higher, Jamaica
low mid at 105 s 6d, fine fine ordinary 93s 6d, Dominica
fine fine ordinary unclean 76s to 775. Mocha was all
withdrawn ; East India sold 2s higher, and fetched
63s 6d to 64s 6d for good and fine ordinary greenish
Java, Batavia good ordinary 38s, low 35s Gd per cwt.
Privately some parcels of Coffee were sold at similar
rates, and the market closed with a firm appearance.
RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—There has been
less activity in the Rum market this week, and both
shippers and the home trade-have been cautious in their
operations. Holders, however, have been firm, and the
rates previously established • have been supported ; the
purchases in Jamaica hive • been 120 puncheons,
30 to 32 per cent over proof at 5s 2d to 5s 6d,
33 to 35 over 5s 7d, to 5s 9d, fine marks 6s to
Gs 2d ; of Leewards 130 puns have been disposed of,
proof to 2 per cent. over proof at 2s ld to 2s 2(1, 7 to 12
over at 2s 4d to 2s 7d ; of Demerara 60 puns fine have
been sold at 4s 3d for 36 to 38 over proos. In Calcutta
small sales have been made at is 6i-c1 to 1s 7d proof. For
Brandy there has been a fair demand, and rather higher
rates have been paid. Sales of Cognac first brands, of the
vintage of 1836, hhds 58 7d, and puns 5s sd, 1837 hhds
5s 4d, puns 5s 2d, 1838 hhds ss-2d„ puns ss, 1839 hhds
4s Bd, puns 4s 6d, 1840 hhds 3s 7d, puns 3s sd. Geneva
has met with a slow: demand, but prices have been sus-
tained, and common quality is not to be purchased
under is 11d. For British Corn Spirits there has been
an excellent demand at lOs 2d cash.
RICE.—The market for Bengal has presented a more
lively appearance this week, a good demand has prevailed
by private contract, and the prices paid are 6d per cwt
above those of last Friday. For Java and Madras ra-
ther higher rates have been paid ; Carolina at 34s to 36s
per ewt.
To-day the demand was good for Java, and some par- •
eels were sold at stiffer rates, making the private sales for
the week 4,000 bags at 8s 9d to 116, for low to good mid-
dling white.
• FRUIT.—In Currants there has been some large busi-
ness doing, the buyers continuing to select the best parcels
at the best quotations. Red Smyrna Raisins have become
very scarce, and a good deal inquired for ; the other des-
criptions remain much the same as last last week.
