(From the London New Price Current of April 16.)
SUGAR.—In the West India market much heaviness has
prevailed this week, both Grocers and Refiners purchasing
with much caution, and so limited have been the transactions,
not above 120 hhds and trs having been disposed of during
the two market days. and these at such irregular rates, that
it is difficult to quote accurate prices, and they must
be regarded as little better than nominal, the rates accepted
however are Is under those of this day week. The real state
of the market will, however, be tested on Tuesday by a public
sale of 150 hhds Barbadoes of the new crop, being the first this
season, when some opinion may be formed as to how prices ve
likely to rule for the next few weeks.
To-day the market was in a very. dull state, and the trifling
quantity disposed of was at prices in favour of buyers. The
total sales for the week are only 150 hhds and trs, and our quota-
tions must be regarded as nominal.
REFINED.—The market for Refined Goods has been inac-
tive all the week, and the limited business transacted has been
at a reduction on former rates of Is. per cwt ; Standard Lumps
at 92s 6d to 93s ; Tittlers and Hambro Loaves ordinary 92s to
9.35, good 94s to 98s, fine 99s to 103 s, very fine 104 s to 106 s;
brown lumps low to fine 88s to 91s per cwt ; for Treacle prices
have given way ; common at 28s 6d to 295, Patent
30s to 325, Golden Syrup, 33s to 355. Bastards,
low dark sorts at 45s to 50s, middling bright 52s to 545, good
and fine 55s to 58s. Fine Pieces at 80a to 83s • for Bonded
Crushed Sugar 30s 9d to 31s for small parcels of Ist, and
29s 6d a 30s for 2d quality. Loaves, 101bs at 36s a 36s 6d,
and 141bs 35s to 35s (3d. Treacle at 14s. Pieces at 20s to
255, and Bastards at 15s to 19s. Dutch Crushed Sugar on
board at 30s 3d per cwt.
To-day the market was dull for all kinds of goods ; 92s is

COFFEE.—Holders of British Plantation have :disp:ayed
firmness, and the rates previously established have been sup-
ported ; but there has been less demand by private contract
for clean descriptions, and only a limited business has been
transacted this week.
This afternoon the market presented a quiet appearance, but
prices were firm ;- the transactions were principally confined to
the public sales, which consisted of 139 bales Mocha, 44 bags
Ceylon, 110 casks and 123 barrels and bags B. P. ; Mocha
was mostly taken in above • the value, viz., at 955 for
"good ordinary brownish ; Ceylon country damaged, zood
ordinary sold at 67s • 6d, inferior 61s 6(1, and very ordinary
44s ; the British Plantation was, however, all sold at full

95s to 96s Gd for middling.coloury, Hes to 92s for low middling ,
82s 6d to 875 fur fine tine ordinary, and 66s to 69s Gd for good

West India-Cocoa; 278 'bags . Trinidad were offered at public
sale, a small part only found buyers at Otis to 50s for mid to
good red, being 2s lower.
TEA.—Holders of Free Trade Tea have refused to submit
to any further reduction, and prices rule much the same as
those previously quoted, but the market has been in a dull
state, the trade for the most part not being disposed to operate
at nrexnt, and the purchases have been trivial in both black
and green kinds. The nearest quotation far common Cortgou
for cash is Is 5d to Is sisl, for fair blackish leaf Is Sid to
Is Gd, and Is faid to is for common Twankay. On Tuesday
4,750 packages were offered at public sale when nearly the
whole was summarily withdrawn, the merchants not being
-' to accept the low rates the trade were disposed

market, however, there has been a fair business transacted, and
prices have improved to Is 50 to Is 5d for Company's Con-
gnu cash.
To-day there was a better demand for free-trade Tea, and
several parcels were disposed of at rather higher rates ; sales of
common Congou for cash were made at Is 50 to. Is .54d ; and
at the close of the market it was difficult to buy under the latter
rate. Compary's Congoti secured a fair sale, and left off at
Is 50 cash.
To-day at the quarterly sale, 129 chests were withdrawn;
811 chests passed the sale; the whole consisted of ordinary
and low consuming kinds, such as Oudes, Bombay, Bituli-
Ppm, and a small mark of Madras ; consuming qualities sold
without spirit at from last sale's return to 3d discount ;
Odes were neglected, and bought in at from last sale's rates
to 6d discount; Bombay partly sold at 2s ; 31adras taken in
at 3d advance; 210 chests were bought in. Good and fine
shipping sorts are still wanted, and would fetch full former
rates.
Rum, BRANDY AND How.nlins.—Leeward Island. Rum
has been in better demand, and former rates have been sup-
ported for the' common sorts, but the better kinds hare de-
dined in val., m. Jamaica has met with a slow sale, and must
be quoted 34 cheaper. Of Lecwards 180 puns have bee.i
sold this week, • prof to 5 per cent. over at 2s 2d to 2s 30
6to 10 over 2s 4d to 2s blvd. Of Jamaica 160 puns have been
