lot 4iid, being rather lower rates; 15 bsgs of Bourbon
Cloves sold at 9d for good, which is rather cheaper.
EfcE.—To-day Bengal Rice was not so much in re•
quest, and the sound of 2,837 bags at public sale, was
taken rather above the worth ; but the sea- damaged
sold.

TEA.—The medium descriptions of Congou have been
operated in v. ith more freedom ; still no improvement
can be quoted in the value, as the supply is good, the
low, good, and superior qualities met with little atten-
tion, although they can be obtained upon rather
lower terms, and there is a plentiful supply. Souchong
is little wanted, and there are sellers of inferior at 9d to Is
Bohea is worth about 2d to sd, but there is still no de-
mand. Notwithstanding the cheapness of scented Teas,
the trade cannot be induced to purchase more than their
present wants require. The good and fine qualities of
Green are held fur the previous value, but have been
sparingly dealt in; there are, however, ready sellers of
the low and mid sorts upon low terms, but the demand

in consequence has been good.
SPIRITS.—The stock of all descriptions of Rum has
been further increased, and the homo and export de-
liveries continue upon a small scale ; nevertheless prices
are much above those of this time last year. Leeward
Island is offered at a further reduction iki prices, still
the purchases made have been trifling since this day
week. East India is heavy of disposal. At auction,
one hundred and sixty-seven casks of Madras were
taken in. The shipping orders are trifling for all sorts of
Jamaica, and the home trade operate with caution, taking
only sufficient for their immediate wants ; prices are on
the decline. For Demerara of strong quality the rates
asked are 4s 10d to 5s 2d for 30 to 38 per cent. over
proof, but there are few buyers to be met with, and the
quantity on offer is on the increase. For arrival
all kinds of Rum are offered under present rates.
Holders are much surprized at the scanty
demand for Ireland and Scotland. The stock of Brandy
has been further increased, and the purchases made for
all purposes having been limited. Geneva is not much
wanted for exportation, and prices are on the decline.
British Corn Spirits and Gin are in good demand.
TURPENTINE.—A further demand of 6d is demanded
for American rough ; the stock being very limited,
12s 6d has bee❑ paid for small parcels. Spirits continue
firm, and. support the recent advance. For British the
demand has been good at 55s to 565. American 53s 6d
for tinged to 56s 6d for fine, casks included. Rosin is
ranch in demand, and prices are on the rise, yellow
selling at Gs to 6s 6d, and amber 5s 6d to 6s per cwt.
Oats.—For Palm the market has an improving ap-
pearance, a good business having been transacted by
private treaty, at prices fully equal to those of this day
week. Olive met with little attention. Rape Seed Oil
has been sparingly dealt in, and prices are looking down.
Holders of Cocoa Nut Oil submitting to reduced rates,
occasioned the demand to be good. Linseed Oil
is little wanted, and the stock is accumulating.

Lard Oil is dull of sale, and offered at 433 to 475. CUd
is held for 271 to 27/ 103 per tun, but the purchases
made hare been of little consequence. Seal is dull of
sale. For Sperm the market has a firm appearance, the
demand having been good and the supply small.
TaLLow.—Holders of Russian here are yet anxious
sellers, and submitted to a further reduction in prices of
3d to 5d per cwt. For delivery i❑ the last three months
of the year there arc seller at 45s 6d to 465, still few con-
tracts have been concluded. Home made met with little
attention, and prices are going down. Other sorts of

took place.
