MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of January 12. )
...4COAIt. --The trade has evinced less desire to purchase
British Plantation Sugar, still there has been a fair de-
mand from both grocers and refiners since we lust wrote,
the purchases for the three market days amounting to
1,400 Witt and tierces ; importers have displayed firm-
ness, and the rates established at the opening of the
market have been maintained, bright yellow and strong
grey descriptions have been the most in request, of
tine sorts of the former ti c supply is small; Deme-
rara, low middling grey has been selling at 733 to 745,
middling nod good yellow 74s to 765, fine 77s to 79s ;
Berbice, low brown 70s ; Vincents low yellow 74';
Trinidad, middling brown 703 6d to 71s; Grenada, Ja-
maica, and St. Kitts middling yellow 753 to 76s ; good
mid 77s to 78s ; Antigua, good mid and good 79a to 81s,
fine 82s to 823 6d per cwt. There has been no public
sale, and none is declared. There has been only one small
arrival during the past week. The deliveries from the
warehouses have begun to increase.
To day importers of West India evinced firmness, and
the rates previously established were fully maintained, es-
pecially for good and fine yellow descriptions, which were
in excellent request by the grocers, and of such tle quan.
tity at market was small, but brown anti yellow kinds were
only in limited demand. The refiners were buyers to a
fair extent, strong sorts were the most in request ; the to-
tal purchases amounted to 480 hlids and tierces; fine yel-
low Jamaica fetched 833; Antigua, good but with cot
much colour 80s 6d to 81s ; good Grenada 77s 6i perc et.
REFINED.—Former rates have been supported for Re-
fined goods, and a good demand has prevailed, particu-
larly for the better descriptions, from the home trade ;
standard lumps in large- parcels have been disposed of at
92s 6d to 93s ; Tittlers good 93s to 955, fine 96a to 983;
Ilaniburgh loaves good and fine 94s to 98s, low brown
lumps 883 to 89a, good and fine 90s to 92s per cwt.
Treacle sells freely at 15s : for Bastards and Pieces there
are few buyers, and prices remain low, viz. at 16s to 2Av,
Dutch Crushed Sugar on hoard in Holland is held for
31s, but there are few buyers.
To.day the grocers bought sparingly of Refined Goods,
*-sa were steady, and standard lumps were not to be
but pm. .. ler cwt. Treacle dull of sale. B istards

late rates. Mocha, at previous rates.
This afternoon there was no public sale of any descrip.
tion; and by private treaty few purchases were made for
home consumption, prices however were supported ; but
good ordinary Ceylon may be bad at 735, yet few parcels
are offering privately. The Foreign market is quiet,
