MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of Aug. 6.)
SUGAR.—To-day importers of Raw Sugar were not in-
clined to make any further concession in prices. but
there was no increase in the home or export demand for
any kind, and there was a loss quantity on offer. Of
West India Muscovado the private sales were only 420
hluls and trcs at the rates of yesterday, or at prices 6cl to
Is under those of Friday last.
REFINED.—To-day Refined goods met with a dull
demand from the home trade, although brown grocery
Lumps could be obtained at 55s to 55s 6d, and Standard
Lumps at 56s 6d per cwt. For Bonded Crushed Sugar
former rates are asked, but there was little passing.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon a public sale of 2,985
bags Mauritius Sugar went at about former rates. In
the private market little business was done.
FORElGN.—Although importers of Foreign Sugar
have been desirous to sell upon previous reduced terms,
and in some cases rather under, still exporters mani-
fested less disposition to operate, and privately they
have only taken 600 chests fine dry white Havannah
at Is, and 3,000 chests yellow at 23s 6d to 25s ;
4,000 bags brown Pernams 19s. The demand from
our refiners working under bond has been trifling, whilst
the home trade have been cautious in their proceedings,
and the purchases made privately by them are not worth
enumerating. At public sale 384 bags Para were taken
in above the value.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon at public sale 238 bags
Bengal sold at 41s 6d for low damp white, and at 38s for
soft yellow. Privately there was little business done in
any kind.
COFFEE.—This afternoon a public sale of 4,005 bags
10 barrels Costa Rica went at reduced rates, but the
whole sold. 123 bags Plantation Ceylon soil at rather
loner prices. The market for Native is in a dull state.
TEA.—Black is held for the previous currency, and
merchants display firmness, but there has been little
desire evinced to ao business in any description. At
public sale yesterday the quantity of tea offered
amounted to 2,000 pkgs ; but little desire was shown to
operate, and only 600 were sold, but as the chief
part consisted of Tea, in small pkgs, and out of condition,
the prices obtained formed no criterion to the market.
lircE.—A further decrease has taken place in the de-
mand for all descriptions of East India, whilst holders
are anxious to realise, in consequence of the large quan-
tities there are to arrive. Although there are sellers of
all descriptions of Bengal Rice at a reduction on previous
rates of is per cwt, still the purchases made have bean
limited by the home trade, whilst the export orders exe-
cuted have been trifling, and the speculative demand has
ceased. In other sorts little business has been concluded.
SPICES.—There has been a much better demand for
all sorts of Nutmegs, occasioned chiefly by the post-
ponement of the Dutch company's sale until next
spring. Prices here have advanced 2d to 3d
per lb, whilst the parcels offered at public auction
were all sold, and amounted to 51 chests of Penang.
Mace sells more freely rather above the previous value,
and at auction 16 cases of Penang were disposed of. The
market has been in a quiet state for black Pepper, and
the qnantity brought forward is larger, whilst the rates
aecepted have been rather under those that ruled pre-
viously. Pimento has been dealt.in with more freedom;
and at public sale 557,bags were sold at full rates.
SPIRITS.—There has been a much better demand for
all descriptions of Jamaica Rum this week, a good bu-
siness having been transacted by the home trade; whilst
exporters have been purchasers to a fair extent, and the
rates obtained are equal to those of this day week, but
not above. The total purchases amount to 300 puns.
In the value of Leeward Island there is little variation
to notice this week, but the demand is more active, and
the purchases have reached 350 puns at 2s 6d to 2s 7d
proof strength. For Demerara there is a much better
demand, and the sales amount to 250 puns. Holders
of East India are not inclined to make any further con-
cession in price, but at present there are few buyers.
The market for Brandy is in a dull state, exporters and
the home trade operating with much caution in all sort
The older kinds are offered upon further reduced terms
but for young Brandies former rates are required
Geneva is in good request for exportation. For Briti
Corn Spirits the market is dull.
SALTPETRE.—This afternoon Rough was required,
and 1972 bags at public sale sold at full rates.
Ous.----For Southern Oil prices cannot be quote
higher, but the demand is good for all kinds, and 160
tuns at auction all found buyers. Holders of pale
Seal have shown less firmness, but submitting
to rather lower rates, occasioned a good busi-
ness to be transacted ; other kinds have been sold
The stock of Fish Oils continues on the increase, whilst
large parcels are near at hand. For Linseed Oil the
demand on the spot has been active for actual consump-
tion, whilst several shipping orders have been executed.
Holders of Palm are inclined to realise, but a good busi-
ness has been concluded in consequence of 36s 6d to 38s
having been accepted for good and fine quality. Cocoa
Nut is heavy of disposal. Lard Oil moves off slowly.
TALLow.—This afternoon the market closed with
much heaviness—fine Petersburgh Yellow Candle on
the spot at 46s 6d to 475, and 46s for delivery in the last
three months.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
PORTSMOUTH, AUG. 6.—Prince Albert, accompanied
by the Grand Duke Constantine of Russia, will inspect
the dockyard battalion to-morrow morning before going
to the Clarence-yard. After the inspection the Grand
Duke Constantine will leave for town.
Royal salutes were fired this morning by all the ships
mounting a sufficient complement of guns and the plat-
film batteries, in honour of Prince Alfred's birthday.
This afternoon, by the express train of the South-
Western Railway, which was brought into the Clarence-
yard for their Lordships' convenience by Mr. Stevens,
the Earl of Auckland, G.C.8., First Lord; Rear-Admiral
Prescott, C. 8.; Captain M. F. F. Berkeley, R.N., M.l'.;
Lord John Hay, C. 8., and the Hon. W. F. Cowper, M.l'.,
Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty; together with
Captain W. A. B. Hamilton, R.N., Second Secretary to
the Board; Captain H. Eden, R.N., Private Secretary to
the First Lord ; Mr. T. Woolley, of the Private -office :
Colonel Irvine, Director-General of Engineering and
Architectural Works; and, accompanied by Captain H.
Stewart, Controller-General of the Coast Guard,larrived
on their annual official visit of inspection to this port and

its dependencies.
Their Lordships were received, on their arrival at
Gosport, by Flag-Lieutenant Cochrane, who ushered
them into the Clarence-yard, where Admiral Sir C. Ogle,
Admiral Hyde Parker, Sir W. E. Parry, and other
officers, naval, military, and civil, received them. Their
Lordships immediately proceeded to business, after the
usual salutes had been fired in honour of their arrival,
commenced by inspecting one of the victualling boys be-
longing to the establishment, fitted as a gunboat, with a
32-pounder medium shell gun amidships, which was ex-
ercised yesterday at Spithead, in half a gale of wind, by
Mr. Davies, the Master-Attendant, major of the boat
brigade of the Clarence yard. This kind of vessel makes
a most admirable gunboat, and without a pound's ex-
pense, being capable of holding 200 men without the
slightest injury to its properties and uses as a victualling
boy. The application of the gun succeeded yesterday
admirsbly, and the experiment will, we understand, re-
sult in alt the hoys at this and similar establishments
being fitted with guns. Their Lordships then went
through the whole of the victualling buildings and store-
rooms, commencing with the tank-store, and ending with
the newly fitted up armoury for the battalion, which has
been made out of an old office, with much taste and
economy.

Having made a most minute inspection of the whole

internal economy of the Clarence-yard, under the escort 1,
of Sir Edward Parry and the Storekeeper and Master '
Attendant, the board proceeded to the open space of
ground (an area of about nine and a half acres), in
front. of the Clarence-jard gate, enclosed within the
fortifications, to inspect the contemplated site for building
the new Marine barracks for this division (a scheme we
hinted at some months since, and which was ridiculed by
sundry official and other individuals connected with this
port), where the plans for the structure were produced
by Captain James, R.E., the Director of Works, and all
the details of expense, time, position, Scc., explained to
the board. From these it appeared that to erect a bar-
rack for 1,000 men will cost 80,000/., or 80/. per man.
Captain James very properly and forcibly exposed the
absurdity of having walls around a town, without a
soldier within them to defend them; for it is a notorious
fact that all the receptacles for troops around Gosport
are at great distances outside the fortifications. From
this ground the board walked to Haslar Hospital, of
which establishment they made a most minute inspec-
tion, returning by water in their barge, steered by Lieut.
Mills (1827), of the Victory—their Flag-Lieutenant—
to the dockyard, and dined in the evening with the Com-
mander-in-Chief, at his official residence.
CHATHAM, AuG. 6.—The Iris, 26 guns, Captain G.
R. Mundy, was paid off into ordinary on Thursday
afternoon, the sth instant, and her Marines joined for
the head-quarters of the Plymouth division the same day.
The crew collected 211., and purchased a gold watch
and chain, which they presented to the sergeant of Ma-
rines, for his good conduct towards them.
The Antelope steam-packet, for the lonian Isles,
commissioned on the 3d inst. by Lieutenant F. Smyth.
This vessel is to have a complement of 60 men.
The Elk 12. gun brig, building and fitting for sea, has
had her bottom caulked, and it is now ready for copper-
ing. The caulkers are employed caulking the bottom
of the Heron, also a 12-gun brig, fitting for sea.
The Rochester, Sedgwick master, arrived yesterday
with stores from Pembrolie and Devonport yards. The
Duck, Savage master, is receiving a general refit, and
will be newly coppered.
THE DOCKYARD BATTALION.—Tho following letter
v< as read at the head of the battalion yesterday even-

ing:—
" ' The Captain-Superintendent is commanded by my
Lords Comissioners of the Admiralty to communicate to
Lieutenant-Colonel Karley, and the officers, non-com-
missioned officers, and privates, and the Cro hatham Dock-
yard Battalion, their Lordships' high apiibation of the
proficiency made by that body in the use of their arms
and in the practice of manceuvring; and their Lordships
also desire to express their satisfaction at the ready and
cheerful manner in which both officers and men have
mat the views of her Majesty's Government on this.' WARD oc•

WESLEY 1N CONFERENCE.—The one and
fourth annual conference of the Wesleyan Methodist
ministers commenced its regular sittings in Liverpool on
Wednesday week. For more than a week several pre-
paratory committees of ministers and laymen have, as
is
usual before the assembling of conference, been engaged
in investing the operations of the various connectional
instrumentalities during the (Methodist) year just ended,
and, in considering the best means of bringing those in•
strumentalitics into increasingly extensive and efficient
exercise. The election to the office of president has
fallen upon the Rev. Samuel Jackson, and that of se -
retry upon the Re,. Dr. Newtora.
