(From the Landon New Price Current of January 12.)
SUGAR.—To-day the refiners and grocers were eager pur-
chasers of all descriptions of West India Muscovado Sugar,
and were disposed to pay rather advanced rates, whilst a
desire was shown by speculators to operate largely. Business,
however, in all sorts, was restricted by the small quantity on
offer. The private sales amounted to 390 hhds and tierces;
and the rates paid exhibited a rise on those of Friday of 6d
to is per cwt. A public sale of 141 hhds and 4 tierces of
Barbadoes went with much animation at an advance on the
prices of the last auction of is 6d to 2s per cwt.
REFINED.—To-day Refined Sugar was much sought after
by the home trade, but little was to be had. The value of
standard lumps is 66s to 66s 6d, and brown lumps according
to quality at 64s 6d to 65s 6d per cwt. In the value of
bonded crushed sugar there is no variation.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon the biddings were animated.
At a large public sale of 10,732 bags 316 casks and 18 brls,
the whole sold, and at a further advance of 6d to ls. per cwt.
L' AST INDIA.—This afternoon all descriptions of Bengal
Sugar met with attention, and the parcels offered at public
sale, amounting to 5,180 bags, were all sold, and at an ad-
vance on former rates of 64 to is for white, yellow, and
brown.

FOREIGN—To-day there was' no public sale of Foreign
Sugar; but privately a fair quantity was taken by exporters
and our refiners working under bond, and the rates paid
were rather above those that previously existed. All kinds
are in good request for home use, and prices are on the rise.
COFFEE.—This afternoon Jamaica Coffee was in excellent
request, and 102 casks 14 brls at public sale were all sold,
and at full rates. Plantation Ceylon is less wanted, and
1,308 bags at auction went at full rates, but a part only sold.
Native met with less attention.

TEA.—To-day there was little desire evinced to purchase
Tea at the public sales. The quantity offered was large, and
amounted to 32,000 pkgs, of which 18,130 bags passed the
hammer, the very small portion of only 1,360 pkgs actually
found buyers; nearly the whole consisted of damaged Tea,
and out of condition, the sound being taken in and with-
drawn at about former rates.

SPIOES.—The market for Black Pepper has an improving
appearance ; an extensive business having been transacted
privately at rather higher rates. For white the demand is
brisker. Pimento has benn in excellent demand ; and
prices are still advancing. For Ginger prices rule very
firm ; the demand for all sorts having been good,
and the supply being much less than of late.
There are few buyers of Cassia Lignea, and the tendency of
prices is downwards. For Nutmegs the market is in a quiet
state, and holders are inclined to reduce their stocks.
Mace is wanted, but little is to be had. For Cloves the
market has a dull appearance, and prices rule low. The in-
ferior, coarse, and jungle kinds of Cinnamon, are dull of sale,
and prices rule low, but good and fine are wanted, and fetch
full rates.

SPlRlTS.—Jamaica Rum is still attracting much attention
the home and export demand having been extensive for all
descriptions, and further purchases were made by speculatot s ;
the rates paid again exhibit an advance on those previously
current. The supply is much less than of late, and all
parties are evidently inclined to get well supplied on account
of the large consumption, and the dearness of British made
Corn Spirits. That a further rise in the value will take
place is the general impression. Demerara met with much
attention, and must again be quoted dearer, 33 to 36 per
cent. over proof bringing 3s 10d to 4s 2d per gallon, and the
quantity uudisposed of is small. Of Leeward Island there
is not sufficient at market to meet the demand, and prices
again show a rise. East India has been largely dealt in,
and prices are still on the rise, 3s to 3s Id having been
given for proof strength—indeed there is little re-
maining in first hands. Brazil is wanted, but there
is scarcely any here, and prices are on the rise.
Of all sorts of Rum the stock is less than last
season, but prices are higher. Brandy of all
sorts has been in excellent request for home consumption,
exporters have taken a fair quantity, prices continue on the
advance. Geneva met with a much better demand, and
prices advanced to 2s 7d to 2s 8d for common shipping sorts,
and 3a 2d to 3s 6d for fine for home consumption. For Bri-
tish Corn Spirits the demand is active, and supplies being
but moderate, together with the high rates of grain, caused
the distillers to advance the price of all descriptions.
SALTPETRE.—To-day the market was better supplied with
Rough ; the quantity of Calcutta offered at public sale
amounted to '2,628 bags, still the demand was good, and the
whole sold.

OILS.—The market has still an improving appearance for
Olive Oil. Extensive purchases have been made in all de-
scriptions, and a further advance in the value took place.
Linseed Oil at present cannot be quoted higher. There are
few purchasers for forward delivery, although Oil can be ob-
tained at the moderate rates of 25s 9d to 26s per cwt.
For Rape Seed Oil the market is looking firm, aid large
parcels have been sold. In Palm Oil a good deal has been
done. Cocoa Nut met with ready purchases privately,
and, owing to the small supply, prices range high.
American Lard met with a fair sale, at 39s to 445.
Cod is offered on lower terms. Seal has been in good request,
and in consequence of the limited quantity at market,
buyers are compelled to pay previous advanced rates.
Southern is wanted.
TALLOW.—Russian has been sold to a large extent on the
spot, for Soap and Candle-making purposes, and the rates
are fully equal to those of this day week. For forward deli•
very there are not many buyers at present. Home-made is
still mush in request, and prices rule high. Of other sorts
of Tallow several parcels have been sold privately at stiff
rates.

THE ASYLUM FOR THE DEAF AND DUMB.—The
half-yearly general meeting of the donors and sub-
scribers to this benevolent institution was held at the
London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, on Monday, Robert
Pugh, Esq., in the chair, the Committee mentioned the
fact that in consequence of the increased facilities of
conveyance, they had children in the assylum from the
most distant parts of the kingdom. There were pupils
from 36 out of the 40 English counties, from five out of
the 12 Welsh counties, from the Channel Islands, and
from Ireland, besides one from the East Indies, and one
from South Australia. At the present (the January)
election, there were 30 vacancies to be filled up, and far
these 66 candidates had presented themselves, 26 girls
and 40 boys. The poll was opened, and closed at three,
shortly after which the names of the successful candi-
dates were declared.

MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.—Tue day morning, at
St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, Maurice Drummond,
Esq., was married by special license to the Hon.
Adelaide Laster, daughter of the late and sister to the
present Lord Ribblesdale. The ceremony was performed
by the Rev. William Bennett. There were present
Lord John Russell, Lord Ribblesdale, Mr. and Mrs.
Grove, and Mr. Charles Drummond. Lady John
Russell was prevented by indisposition from attending
at the :thumb.

Which young and gentle, the matured and sage,
The lonely and the mated—all sustain.

These interesting little vxlunies, although bearing upon subjects

In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths t.

RECEPTION OF THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
J. K. Walker, the private secretary of the President, 11::
peared at the entrance of the main aisle, and the deed
keeper announced " A Message from the Preside° hr
the United States." Mr. Walker bowed, and when_fre
had resumed his upright position, said:—" Mr. Sped
—I am directed by the President of the United Ststeleks
