MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of January 26. )
SUGAR.—Since our last report there has been a good
demand for British Plantation from bath grocers and
refiners.
To-day the West India market presented a firm aspect;
from the refiners there was a good demand for all descrip-
tions, and the grocers were anxious to purchase bright yellow
qualities, but the supply of such being small checked business,
nearly all offering for sale were readily bought up ; brown
sorts met with a good demand • the total purchases
amounted to 500 hhds and trs, and the prices were gene-
rally 6d above those of Friday.
REFINED —To-day the home trade bought freely of Re-
fined goods, and prices have an upward tendency ; Stan-
dard Lumps are not to be had under 945, and some
parties will not sell thereat. In Bastards and Pieces large
purchases were made. Treacle, however, is dull of sale.
In bonded crushed Sugar several purchases were made at
32s 6d per cwt.

a fair extent, and the whole of 5,426 bags at public sale

offered, a small part only was sold at the former value,
fine fine ordinary at 100 s, good ordinary 70s to 73s per cwt.
This afternoon prices underwent no variation of moment
for either East or West India, but the trade evinced little
desire to purchase, and by private treaty few sales were
made, but holders for the most part are not disposed to
press sales, anticipating that ere long a good demand will
exiak at auction 140 casks Berbice, 153 bags East India,
and 134 bags Brazil were offered. Berbice sold at about
former rates ; low middling and middling fetched 92s 6d

TEA.-To-day the market for Free Trade was inactive ;
by private contract the purchases were very limited, and at
the public sales there was but a small attendance of the
trade, who evinced little disposition to purchase, and
the biddings were languid throughout the sales :
the quantity offered amounted to 5,167 package s
601 of which consisted of Bohea in- Congou packages
imported from Rio, and were principally disposed of, but
at reduced rates, middling new and faint went at is
to ".24id, good middling but flat and odd is aid ; of
other sorts only a small part found buyers, although the
merchants submitted to a reduction on the rates of the

way for Company's Congou, sales for cash were made at
Is 44d per lb, and at that figure there were sellers on
'Change.
RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—Jamaica Rum of good

been supported. The sales have amounted to 100
