(From the London New Price Current of January 29.)
SUGAR.—The Grocers have been anxious to purchase
bright yellow descriptions, but the supply at market
having been small has operated against business, all
offering has found ready buyers each market day, and
the prices paid arc GI above those of this day week,
brown and low yellow sorts with which the market is well
supplied cannot be quoted higher, still they have been in
good request at previous rates.
To-day holders of West India displayed firmness, and
the rates previously established were fully supported for
all kinds; but there was only a limited demand from
either Refiners or Grocers, their attention being princi-
pally occupied with the large public sales of Bengal and
Mauritius. The total purchases for the week have been
1,350 hhds and tres.
REFINED.—The Home Trade have purchased freely,
of Refined Goods this week, and they have been com-
pelled to ray an advance of 64 to is per cwt. Standard

98s, fine 99s to 1033, brown Lumps ord 90s to 91s, good

eels of first quality. Loaves 10 and 14 lbs at 37s to 38s.
Treacle at 15s per cwt. Dutch Crushed Sugar on board
at Amsterdam at 309 61 to 31s. per cat.
MALTRITIOS.—This afternoon the trade were desirous to
do business at the large public sales, which consisted of
500 bags, the whole of which were disposed of, and at
very full prices ; in some cases the better sorts rather
higher, mid and fine yellow went at 76e to 83s, low 73s a
75s 6d, good and fins brown 68s to 72s 6d, very low to
mid 51s 6d to 60s per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the public sales of Bengal
were large, and consisted of 5,962 bags 309 cases, about
half consisted of brown sorts; nearly the whale was dis-
posed of, white with fair competition at full prices, and in
some cases rather above; the lower sorts of brown went
rather under former rates, but good kinds maintained their
I former value ; middling and fine white fetched 82s to 863,
ordinary 803 6d to 81s, middling and good yellow 76s to
79s 6d, low dsmp brown 53a 64 to 565, better 57s to 59,6 d,

white sorts have been in fair request, and prices remain
firm ; round middling white Pernambuco fetched 23s 6d,
low damaged 20s to 2L 6d, brown and yellow 183 to 19s
per cwt.

-

COFFEE.—The market fur clean descriptions of British
Plantation has presented a quiet aspect this week • the
trade have purchased with caution, taking only sufficient
for their immediate necessities, and importers have sup-
; plied the market more freely, prices have given may is 64
1 to 2s per cat ; unclean kinds are heavy of sale, and prices
on the decline.
This afternoon there was only a limited demand from
the home trade, and privately but few purchases were
made; prices, however, underwent no material variation:
The public sales consisted of 300 bags East India and 140
bales Mocha; the former sold at full prices, viz. at 54s to
54s 6d for good ordinary Java kind ; the latter was only
partly disposed of at rather lower rates, viz, at 116 s to 1176
for good ordinary pale, good ordinary green taken in at
105 s to 110 s per cwt.
Cocoa —Trinidad at public sale fetched about former
rates, viz. 54s 6d to 55s 64 ler acrid red, and fair to good
grey 51s to 52s 6d per cwt. Of Foreign there has again
been no arrival.
Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—It being the intention
of Mr. Labouchere, on the 2d of February, to move for
leave to bring in a Bill to equalize the duties on East
and West India Rum, and it also being, we believe,
his intention to reduce that on the former from 15s 44
to 9a 4d, has caused the market to become very
dull for all descriptions of Rum, and prices have
given way 2d for Lcewards, but Jamaica has very
nearly supported its former value ; the supply being short,
of the former the sales have been only 120 puns, proof to
1 per cent. over 2s 7d to 23 Bd, 6 to 9 over 2s 9d to 3s;
of the latter only 50 puns have been sold, principally at
6s 84 to 7s for 32 to 34 per cent. over-proot of good and
fine quality. East India has declined to 2s for proof, at
which only 50 hhds have been sold. In Brandy prices arc
firm ; Cognac, first brands of the vintage of 1836 at 5s 54
in Wads, and 5s 3d in puns, ditto 1837 hhds 5s 3d, puns
53 Id, ditto 1838 hhds 5s Id, puns 4s Id, ditto 1839 hhds
4s 11d, puns 4s 94, ditto 1840 hhds 3s 11d, puns 3s 94.
Geneva at former rates. British Corn Spirits in goad
demand at lOs cash.
TEA.—We have to report a quiet market for Free Trade
this week and although the merchants have been willing
to submit to a further reduction in pi ices, still buyers have
coma forward reluctantly, and the transactioes by private
treaty in both black and green descriptions have been on a
small scale only ; at the public sales the trade have mus-
' tered in small numbers only, and have purchased very
sparingly ; the total quantity offered has amounted to
15,600 pkgs, and the small proportion only of 3,500 have
found buyers, at a reduction on former rates of !id to 2d
per lb.
To day there was a fair amount of business transacted
in Company's Congou, and prices were firmer; sales for
cash were made at Is sid, at which rate there were buyers
on 'Change. For Free Trade the demand was however
limited, and the market still wears a dull appearance, but
prices underwent no further change.
Rice.—There has been less demand for Bengal this
week, at a reduction on former rates of 3d to 64 per cwt.
Java yellow and low white at 8s 6sl to lOs per cwt. Caro.
lina for home use at 34s to 36s per cwt. This afternoon
the market for East India was inactive ; 1,182 pockets
Bengal were offered at public sale, and sold at 13s 6d to
14s 64 for mid and good mid white, being at the former
value.

SewEs.—This afternoon the public sales consisted of
993 bags black and 54 bags white Pepper. 100 bags
Pimento, and 50 chests Cassia Lignea ; Pepper was prin-
cipally taken in at 3;1:1 to 41 for good fair Sumatra, being
the full v. Lie ; white bought in at 101 for fair middling.
Pimento sold at 2jal for goad ordinary coarse. Casia
sold at 90a to 92s for low middling and middling.
FRUlT.—Privately there has been very little do'ng this
week; a large public sale of Cure ots was brought for-
ward, consisting of 171 butts 85 caroteels Patras, a few
of the best sold at 71s ; the Ithaca, 'Lance, and Cephalo-
nia, all passed without any bids.
INDIGO.—The quarterly sale of East India has termi-
nated, the attendance of the home trade was larger than
has been the case for some time. The quantity advertised
(including 4,552 chests of old goods bought in at, or
withdrawn at former sales), was 6998 chests
The quantity bought in is estimated at about 2,000
chests, which with 718 chests withdrawn, leaves about
4,300 chests actually sold, 2,000 of which have been
taken fur home use, 1,900 for export, and 400 by dealers
and speculators, being a greater quantity than could well
have been expected at this period of the year.
At public sale yesterday, 28 chests Manilla were offered,

rather higher; the prces ranged from 3> 61 to 63 31.
