e L New Price Current of January 1.)
''ussAn•--The home trade have purchased with
nation of Refined goods this week, and rather lower rates
are taken, brown melting lumps selling at 61s 6d to 625,
brown grocery 623 6d to 638, and standard lumps at 64s
per
cwt. Bastards met with little attention, and 35s to 46s is
the value, but in pieces a
good deal has been done at 48e to
595. For Treacle the demand has been active, and prices
have advanced, 26s to 305 being paid. Bonded Crushed
Sugar is much wanted, at 33s 6d for first sort, but little is
a g
to be had. In Loavesood deal has been done, at stiffer
rates.
COFPEE._There has been a better demand for West India
Coffee privately this week, and rather higher rates are paid
for all qualities. For Ceylon the demand has much improved,

advance. Native has been sold to a
fair extent, and prices have risen to 39s 6d to 40s for good
but is
ordinary pale.
at °reign however met with little attention,
not offered any further decline.
Rice —.The demand has been extensive for all descriptions
of East India this week, and a rise in the value of 2s per cwt
has taken place, good to fine white Bengal selling at 21s to
225, middling 20s to 208 6d, low 19s to 19s 6d, yellow 18s Gd
to 19s, and Madras 178 6d to 19s per cwt; indeed the market
has been nearly cleared.
FltUIT.—As there have been several public sales of
damaged and inferior fruit, which sold from 47s to 525, the
purchases by private contract have been on a limited
scale, arising also in some degree from several of the
cargoes lately reported having been purchased by the trade
before their arrival. About two hundred tons of
Island Fruit have been taken for Holland at 55s for fine
quality. Fine Patras is scarce, and still commands 565, but
the general quality of the present stock is inferior to that of
last year. he stock in the hands of retail dealers is con-
sidered to be lighter than usual at this season.
COCHINEAL—There has been a biisk demand for all de-
scriptions this week by private treaty, and the rates paid
show an advance on those of the last public sales of 2d per
lb. Honduras low to fine silvers bringing 5s Id to 5s 6d, and
black 5s 8d to 7s per lb. The lowest point of the market
for silvers last year has been 4s 3d to 5s Bd, and black 5s 2d
to Cs Gd_per lb.
