some parcels were bought by speculators. Prices
have further improved, making the a ranee during
the last two weeks of 2s per cwt, and the supply
is row much less of all kinds at market. Rice is still
selling under the cost of importation. Au opinion pre-
vails that large quantities of Rice will be required for
Ireland shortly. The demand for clean Rice has been
extensive. Sago is wanted, and the parcels disposed of
privately were at stiffer rates.
SPICES.—To-day at public sale 44 casks of Nutmegs
were all taken in and withdrawn—middling and good
limed at 2s 10d to 3s Id; 28 chests Cassia Lignes sold,
good 68s to 70s; 20 cases Cassia Buds taken in at 100 s;
178 bags Pimento sold Id cheaper, good quality at sf:cl,
middling 5,1; 643 bgs Malabar Ginger taken in at 24s
for common royal; 85 bags white Pepper sold at 4d to
4id for middling dingy.
FRITIZ—Three public sales were brought forward
consisting of all descriptions, at which very little was
sold; but afterwards a parcel of old Zante Currants was
nearly all taken at 35s to 375. New Prunes, barrels and
cases, 35s to 40s. New Imperial French Plums, 5/ lOs
to 8/. Boxes Muscatel, layers, 43s to 455; ditto bunch,
40s. Parts of eight cargoes or new Valentias were put
up to show, none sold; )esterday a parcel of inferior
quality was done at 365; but the best decriptions are
held for 48s.

SPIRITS.—Fine Jamaica Rum has been in good re-
quest this week, and the rates obtained are equal to
those previously current ; for other sorts, however, a
fail in dui value of 2d per gallon took place, but the
operations are upon a larger scale. The salts are 250
puns—plain quality 27 to 30 per cent. over proof at
35 : d to 33 4d, middlwg 31 to 33 over 3a 4d to 3s sd,
good middling and good 33 to 35 over 3s 7d to 3s 9d,
and a parcel of fine high flavour 36 per cent. over proof
at 4s 4d. For Demerara further reduced prices having
been taken, occasioned a fair business to be done, and
the sales amount to 200 puns, fair and good quality 34
to 36 over proof at 2s 10d to 3s; 33 to 38 fine 3s to 3s 2d.
Leeward Island suffered no further depression, and 250
puns sold at is Rd to is 9d.
TALLOW.—This afternoon the public sales of Tallow
went off with heaviness, and at rather lower rates ;
