From the London New Price Current of February 8 )
SUGAR. —The rates previously established have been
'ully supported for West India Muscovadoes, and the
grocers have been anxious to purchase yellow descriptions,
especially those with colour, but the short supply has
operated against business; of good and fine sorts the market
has been cleared each day, and in some cases even rather
higher rates have been paid.
To-day prices were firmer for British Plantation ; both
grocers and refiners were desirous to plircliasc all descrip.
tions, but the small and indifferent show operated against
buying, still there was a fair huffiness done, and the better
sorts of yellow, which arc much wanted by the grocers,
brought prices rather above those of Friday, indeed in
some ea-Ts the lower sort were sold, towards the. close ef
the market, a shade above former rates ; the purchases
amounted to 403 birds and trcs, and would have been on a
more extended scale if there had been a better assortment.
REFINED.—Fur home consumption a large demand has
prevailed for Ildiaed goods, and the market has been
nearly cleared, some purchases have bsen made fur Liver-
pool, and prices have advanced since this day week is
per ewr,
To-d4y Refined Goods were much sought after by the
Lome trade; and it is difficult to get Standard Lumps at
955, at that rate large purchases have been made for de-
livery in a fortnight. Treacle sells more freely at 355. to
42a. The demand was good for Bastards and Pieces, and
former rates sat re fully supported. Bonded Crushed Sugar
in good request at 32s 6d per cwt.
Meeitieres,—Ttes afternoon the public sales were well
attended, arid the bidding% were brisk, the total quantity
offered amounted :o 6,714 bags, the whole le as disposed of
at prices 6sl a is higher for good and fine yellow sorts;
brown and other kinds fetched full former rates, and in some
cases a'slight advance, fine yellow went at 83s to 851, good
81s to 82s 6d, middling and good middling 77a to 80s, low
middling 724 6-.1 to 755, good brown 71s to 71s 6d, mid-

per oat.
EAST Izenre.—This afternoon the public sales consisted
of 1,630 bags Manilla, 362 baskets Java, 4,76.5 bags and
281 cases Bengal ; Manilla was all taken in 6d above
former rates, viz. good middling brown at 255, washed and
shifted 21s to 22s 61, a few lots however were sold at the
latter rates. Java was all bought in Gd to is above the
market value, good brown and middling grey at 23s 61 to
26 6 I, damps 22a 6.1 to 23s 61, a few lots of the latter were
sold at those rates. Bengal was nearly all disposed of at

low dark sound yellow in cases .565, damps and washed of
various other sorts 67s to 87s per cwt.
FOREIGN.—This afternoon prices were supported for all
kinds, but there was only a limited business transacted by
private treaty : at auction 43 chests Brazil were offered
and sold at 20s to 23s for brown and yellow, and 24s for
low middling white.
Moeesses.—This afternoon there was a steady demand
and prices were firm ; at auction 156 puns 5 hhds An-

viz. at 37s to 37a 6J fur good quality, the latter taken in
at 50s to 50s 6d per cwt.
COFFEE.-There ha= been only a limited demand for
clean descriptions of West India since we last wrote, arid
prices have assumed a downward tendency ; unclean sorts
have met with a heavy sale; importers have supplied the
market more freely, and pi ices gave way 2s.
This afternoon the operations for home consumption
were confined to the public sales which were large, but at
which the trade for the most part did not evince
much desire to purchase, and prices gave way
for the most kinds ; .592 bags Semarang, 1,454
bags Ceylon, 230 bags Sumatra, 740 bags Java, 94 bales
Mocha, 102 casks 26 brls and 206 bags Berbice were ef_

viz., good ordinary brownish at 105 s; Berbice taken in
at lower prices, middling at 1039, fine ordinary and low
middling 92a to 955.
TEA.--Prices have undergone little variation for free
trade since this day week, holders for the most part being
unwilling to submit to any further reduction, but the mar-
ket. has press- nted a tranquil appearance, and by private
treaty the operations have been on a small scale only in
both black- and green descriptions.
To-day prices underwent little variation for free trade,
but die demand was limited, still buyers were disposed to
do business, and several small parcels were disposed of ;
