MARKET INTELLIGENCE

(From the London Mercantile Journal of April 20.)
SUGAR. —A part of the first arrival of the new crop of
Barbadoes Sugar, consisting of 150 hhds., was brought to
the hammer to-day ; the biddings were languid, and
not above half found buyers at 65s 6d. to 73s
for low to fine yellow, being rather below the rates the
merchants expected. The demand privately was very
limited, and the transactions confined to the wants of the
buyers at further reduced prices.
MAURITIUS. —A public sale consisting of 5,606 bags
was brought forward to-day, which went off heavily, and
a small part only was sold 6d under former rates; low
middling yellow went at 62s to 655, good middling to fine
66a to 72s per cwt.
EAST INDIA. —The importers of Bengal continue desi-
rous to realise, and 7,900 bags 50 boxes were put up by
public auction to-day ; not above half found buyers at 13
;
under former rates low to fine white went at 62s 6d to
69s per cast. In Manilla and Java nothing has bean done.
FOREIGN. —This market remains very quiet, nothing was
done privately, and 437 bags white Havannah at public

they contained as follows :-519 bags Padang, 1,567
bags Ceylon, 408 bags Mysore, 155 bags Bengal, 167
cass Java, and 386 bags of other sorts. The demand
from the trade was slack, and the Padang was all taken
in at 37s 6d to 38s for fair quality but unclean, being
full prices; Ceylon all sold at 72a to 78s 63 for good
and fire ordinary quality, being is above former rater.
Mysore sold at 55s to 603 for good and fine. Java went
at 54a 6d fur fair quality.
The Foreign market remain; quiet, but the importers
are firm, and 2,633 bags Rio put up to public sale were
all taken in at 40s 6sl to 42s for ordinary to good ordinary,
being full prices.
PEPPER.—There wa; a public sale of 3,200 bags black,
a small part only was sold at 34(1 for good Eastern, and
41 to 4-h-d for good Malabar, being full prices. A parcel
of white was offered by the hammer, consisting of 54
bags, which was bought in at 7-1 d to Std for fair quality.

consisting of 1,174 boxes, and 175 half boxes of Valencia
Raisins, 117 boxes Muscatel Raisins in layers, 2,900
drums Turkey Pulled Fig?, and a quantity of Imperial
French Plums. The sale went off ;ery• quietly, and a
small proportion only was sold. The Valencia and
Mascatel Raisins wore all taken out, there being no buyers
except at much lower pr:eas. The Figs were chiefly sold
at $2 one lot at 33s per cwr. French Plums went at 60s
to 755, in half and quarter cartoons, and at 41s in qr chests.
RICE. —The demand for Bengal is still ve-y
and 300 bags offered at puhlic salo went at Ils 61 to 12s
for low dusty white, being rather lower.
TEA.—The prices of this article were without altera-
tion to-day; the halders were firm, arid a moderate busi-
ness was done. Company's Congou keeps steady at about
Is sisl per lb cash.

SALTPETRE.—Thei-e are now few buyers of East India
Rough, and 1,026 hags off,rel by the hammer went slowly,
but all found buyers at 27s to 28s for 12i- to 3 ref:action,
being a shade lower.

INDIGO.—The quarterly sales were broug'.t to a
conclusLn this afternoon, but at too late an hour for
us to give a fall report—suffice it to say that the de-
n-end for shipping sorts continued good to the close,
and an advance is established on the rates of January
of 4d to tsd per lb on good and fine, and 3d on mid-
dling qualities; the consuming sorts, however, were
dull, and prices ruled from par to 3d per lb discount. Ma-
dras went at about last sales' prices. Of the whole
quantity 317 chests were withdrawn, 1,165 bought in,
chiefly low and consuming sorts, leaving about 4,000 ac-
tually sold, of which 1,500 are supposed to be for home
consumption, and 2,500 for export.
COCIIINEAL.--45 bags at public sole were disposed of
at full prices.

TALLOW. -_The demand for this article was steady
to-::'ay, and 53 casks 103 sacks Cape Tallow, off:red at
public sale, were disposed of at 46s 6d to 483 3d
per cwt. Fine; Yellow Candle was quoted at 47s 9d to 48s,
I but there did not appear to be much business doing for
actual consumption.
Paovistorrs.---The little business doing in old Irish
Butter is confined to the best qualities, which bring
about 95s to 100 s per cwt landed. Foreign in fair re-
quest, and fine brings 1103 to 112 s per cwt. Lard
dull of sale, but not lower. The Bacon Market has
become very quiet, and former rates are barely supported,
there being numerous sellers of prime Waterford for
delivery in the next three months at 563 to 583; the
few sales made in landed goods have been at 56s to 59s
for prime Waterford, and at 54s to 56; for Limerick,
which are now with difficulty obtvined. Middles in fair
request at 53s to 56; landed, and at 523 to 54; free
on board, Irish Hams go off well at full prices, prime
Belfast and Limerick 70s to 72s per cwt.

EXTENDING THE THOROUGHFARES IN LON-
Dox.—A Bill of much importance, with regard to the im-
provement of the metropolis, has just been printed for the
House of Lords, having been introduced under the sanction
of Government. Its object is to promote further improve-
ments in the cities of London and Westminster, particu-
larly in two parts of it :—first, to open a convenient
thoroughfare from the end of Coventry-street, Piccadilly,
to Newport-street and Long-acre. A schedule is attached
of the property that will be required to effect this very im-
portant change. From that it appears that it will be
necessary to pull down three houses in Leicester_
square, namely, Nov. 50, 51, and 52 ; and also houses
in Princes-street, C7anbourne-street, Bear-street, and
Castle-street, in Little-court, at the back of old Slaugh-
tees Coffee-house, in St. Martin's-court and lane, &c.,
which arc built on ground the fee of which is in the
Marquis of Salisbury, to that the plan is not likely to be
opposed if his Lordship's assent is secured. The second im-
provement proposed by the Bill is to continue the line of
street from Waterloo-bridge, now completed to Bow-street,
northward into Brosd-street, Holborn, to extend to Ox-
ford-street, in a direct line through St. Giles's, so as to
communicate with Holborn at or near Southampton-street.
The Bill further proposes to open a spacious thoroughfare
tetween Whitechapel and Spitalfields and the docks,
wharf.', &c. of the river Thames, by widening the northern
and southern ends of Leman-street, and by creating a new
street from the northern side of \V hitechapel to the front
of Spita'fields church. A schedule is attached of property
that it will he necessary to pull down from East Smithfield
to Rosemary-lane. The Bill enacts that the Commis.
aioners of Woods and Forests are to have the power to
make end plan the improved thoroughfares, to charge their
funds with 214,0001. for such purpose ; to obtain Ex..
c!icquer bills from the Treasury, &c. It further provides
that the streets are to be made according to maps or plans
to be deposited in the ofilce of the Commissioners, and that
no alteration in lines of streets are to be made without the
cc,uscnt of the Lords of the Treasury.
