MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current of May 14.)
SUGAR.—The opinion having become more prevalent that
Ministers will be defeated on the measure for the admission of Fo-
reign Sugar for home consumption, and of which there is every
prospect, have'further strengthened the confidence of holders of
all sorts admissible for home consumption, and have
caused buyers, of West India Muscovadoes to come forward
with increased freedom this week ; for both grocery and refin-
ing purposes there has been an excellent demand, the quantity
disposed of by private treaty during the three market days has
amounted to 1,600 hhds and trs being greater than has been
the case for many weeks, and purchases would have been on a
more extended scale if the market had been better supplied; prices
have further advanced, and now rule 2s above those of Friday.
Antigua of fine yellow quality has been disposed of at 725,
middling to good middling from the same island and Jamaica
65s to 663 : Demerara middling 64s to 65s ; Trinidad rather
inferior 62s to 63s 6d ; St. Lucia low middling 62s ; Demo,
rara low greyish brown 60s, besides the above quantity, MO
hhds New Barbadoes were disposed of readily at public sale on
Tuesday Is above former ratee, low middling yellow went at
64s to 655, middling 67s to 68s, good middling and good 69s
to 70s 6d and fine 71s to 71s 6d per cwt.
To-day a good desire was evinced on the part of the trade
to purchase both brown and yellow qualities of British Planta..
tion, but buying was rather restricted owing to the small supply
at market, and buyers were compelled to pay rather higher
rates, making the advance for the week 2s to 3s, and the quan-
tity sold 2,250 hhds andtierces ; at the close ai the:market few
brokers had any Sugar remaining for sale.
REFINED.—To-day the home trade .purchased freely of Re-
fined Goods, and prices further improved; sales of Standard
Lumps were made at 93s 6d. Crus;ded is in request, but few par-
cels to be had. Loaves have been taken more freely, and prices
are firmer, sales of 10 and 141bs made at 34s to 36s per cwt.
MA uantus.—This afternoon the biddings were spirited at
the public sales, which consisted of 7,831 bags ; nearly the
whole found buyers at full former rates, indeed in some cases
prices ruled rather higher ; low to fine yellow went at 62s to
70s 6d, middling to fine brown 57s to 61s, very ordinary dark
44s per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—For Bengal there has been a good demand
by private trr...aty from the home trade, but the advance paid
upon former rates has not exceeded Is per cwt ; at auction,
3,821 bags were all disposed of with fair spirit, fine white went
ers 6d to 68s 6d, good 66s to 66s 6d, good middling 64s 6d
AO 655, middling 63s to 645, low to good middling yellow tiOs to
62s 6d, fine brown 595, damps and washed of various sorts 58s
6d to 67s per cwt. Manilla is held firmly. For Siam full
rates have been paid.
This afternoon further purchases were made privately in
Siam, making the total quantity sold this week 1000 bags at
23s 9d to 24s 3d for low white quality. This afternoon the
trade purchased freely of Bengal at the public sales, which
comprised Is butts,: 65 puncheons, 100 hhds, and 2,521
bags, the puncheons, hhds, and butts, were all taken in,
the quality being indifferent, viz. low brown at 51s to 535,
strong greyish brown 55s to 575, the bags were however all
sold at full rates, low to middling white at 633 to 645, ordi-
nary yellow 57s to 60s 6d, middling 61s to 625, damp yellow
55s to 563, white damp and washed 58s Gd to 63s 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.—White Havannah is held firmly at the rates pre-
viously established. Holders of yellow are firm. For Brazil
prices are firm,l,3w to good white Bahia at an average of 24s ;
100 hhds Porto Rico Muscovado at 21s ; a floating cargo of
brow Paraiba about 300 chests has been sold at 18s, deliverable
at a near port.
COFFEE.—The demand has been limited by private treaty
for clean descriptions of British Plantation Coffee this week, the
uncertainty that exists as regards the duties, some parties being
of opinion that an alteration will be made ere long, others that
no change will take place this year, cause the trade to operate
with caution and to take only sufficient to supply their imme-
diate wants, holders however are firm and still supply the
market sparingly.
This afternoon the market was quiet for East and West
India sorts, and by private treaty but few purchases were made,
holders however for the most part were firm, and but few par-
cels are pressing for sale ; at auction 80 casks 934 bags Cora_
pany's Java imported from the Cape were offered and all taken
in at 62s to 66s for good ordinary pale quality, being the full
TIC ue.
Rust, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The Rura market con-
finues to wear a dull aspect, and although 'guilders of West
India have submitted to a reduction on last week's rates of
to Id per gallon, still bath shippers and the home
trade have purchased with much caution, and the
total sales since this day week have been only 150
puncheons : for proof Leewards 2s Is a 2s lid were
accepted, 5s 2d to 53 8d for Jamaica 30s to 36s over, and 6s 2d
to 6s 6d for good and fine marks. East India is dull of sale, and
50 hhds at auction were taken in at is 10d for 23 to 25 per
cent over proof, but averaging 20 per cent ; 100 hhds of Cal-
cutta were sold at Is 5d proof. 'fhe arrivals of Rum have
been large this week, amounting to 660 puns and 450
In Brandy the transactions have been extremely
limited, prices have further given way Id per gal-
lon ; sales of Cognac first brands of the vintage
of 1836 have been made at 5s 4d in hhds, and in puns
5s 2d, ditto 1837, hhds 5s 2d, puns ss, ditto 1838, hhds 5s
puns 4s 10d, ditto 1839, hhds 4s 10d puns 4s Bd, ditto 1840,
3s ea puns 3s 6d, there have been some arrivals. Ge-
neva has met with a slow sale, 2s is the value of shipping
and 2s Gd to 2s 7d for fine quality for home use. The demand
has been rather limited for British Corn Spirits, but the price
is firm at 9s 1I d cash.

TEA.—In the early part of the week there was a brisk
demand for Free Trade Tea, both for consumption and on
speculation, and prices further advanced '2d. per lb.
To-day there was more activity in the speculative market,
and in Company's Congou a good many purchases were made
at p: ices rather above those of yestert. ay, 13 91(1 to Is 10d
