( From:the London New Price Current of November 5.
SUGAR.—There has been a considerable falling off in
the demand for British Plantation Sugar this week, and
the market has been in a dull state, both grocers
and refiners operating with much caution in all de-
scriptions, and the rates previously established have
been sustained for both yellow and brown kinds, and of
fine sorts of the former, the supply is still small. Barba-
does went off quietly, but former rates were sustained ;
fine yellow fetched 71s 6d to 725, good 69s to
70s, good middling 66s 6d to 68s 6d, middling
and low middling 62s 6d to 66s per cwt. The total
purchases for the three market days have been only 500
hhds. No arrival since this day week, and the surplus
in the comparative stocks has diminished. The Gazette
price is 35s lid, in 1840 57s 7i, in 1839 37s Id, and in
1838 31s 7d per cwt. The letters received by the West
India Packet speak well of the Sugar crop.
To-day the demand was extremely limited for "West
India Sugar, but holders refused to submit to lower rates,
in some cases, however, the prices accepted were rather
under those of this day week. The total sales for the
week are only 700 hhds and trcs, and the market closed
with a dull aspect.
REFINED.—The transactions in Refined goods have
been upon a small scale only for home consumption this
week ; Standard Lumps at 80s to 80s ad ; Titlers and
Hamburgh Loaves, common 79s to 80s, good 82s to 86s,
fine 87s to 98s, very fine 99s to 102 s, brown lumps 74s
to 79s per cwt. For Treacle prices are firm, common
25s 6d to 26s ' • patent ordinary 26s 6d to 27s 6d, good
28s to 29s 6d ; best old make 30s, Golden Syrup 30s to 32s
per cwt, fine at 71s to 755, good 67s to 70s, middling 64s
to 655, common kinds at 60s to 63s per cwt. Bastards
common at 40s to 435, mid 445 to 48s, but good and fine
kinds at 493 to 56s per cwt. Dutched. crushed Sugar
28s 9d to 29s for first quality. Treacle 13s 9d to 14s.
Bastards 12s to 14s, and Pieces at 15s to 18s. Loaves at
31s to 32s for 10 and 14 lbs. Dutch Crushed Sugar at
26s 9d on board in Holland.

MAURITIUS.—HoIders have displayed firmness, and
have refrained from offering any at public sale ; but by
private treaty little desire has been evinced to operate in
low yellow, middling, or brown qualities, and the demand
for such has been limited. The offers however made at
lower rates have been rejected.
EAST Nom—Prices have been sustained for white
qualities of Bengal, and a fair demand has prevailed by
private contract ; fine white has fetched 72s to .73s' but
brown kinds have been taken sparingly ; and prices have
given way Is per cwt ; at auction 1,693 bags were dis-
posed of fine white at 72s 6d to 735, good mid to good
68s to 71s, mid 65s to 675, low to mid yellow 55s to 60s,
good bright brown 48s to 48s fid, and mid 44s to
46s per cwt. The stock is 71,655 bags greater
than it was in 1840 at this period. For Manilla
there are few buyers, either for export or refining under
bond, although the merchants would willingly accept
present low rates. None has been offered at public sale.
In Java the operations have been extremely limited by
private treaty, and the rates accepted are rather under
those previously quoted. Siam has moved off slowly,
and prices keep on the decline.
FOREIGN.--There has been an increased disinclination
evinced on the part of both shippers and refiners to ope-
rate in Brazil this week, and although holders are willing
to realize, still the operations by private treaty have
been extremely limited in both white and brown sorts,
and the prices accepted are rather under those of this day
week.
MOLASSES.—The market for West India has become
quiet, and the operations this week have been trivial,
but holders are firm, and have refused to sell, excepting
at full prices. For Demerara of good quality 25s have
been paid, and 22s for common St. Lucia. Of Foreign
Molasses some parcels have been disposed of at Os to 78
per cwt.

EXTRAORDINARY SHEEP.—Mr. D. Webb,
butcher, of Homend-street, in this town, requests us to
state, that he last week killed a small ewe sheep, which
he considers (comparing the weight of fat with the
(size of the sheep) the greatest curiosity of the kind
which ever fell under his observation. The animal
(which was five years old) weighed only 101bs. per quar-
ter ; she had in her inside 9ilbs. of rough fat and the
weight of suet on each kidney was 3ilbs. The sheep
was fed on Malvern Hill.—Worcestershire Chronicle.

STRANGE DELUSION.—On Wednesday a long
investigation was gone into before Mr. Baker, the Co-
roner, at the Royal Oak, Galway-street, St. Luke's, on
the body of Elizabeth Morgan, aged 55, whose death was
alleged to have been caused through improper treatment.
Maria Walker, of 31, Cross-street, Islington, said she
had known the deceased about 12 months, by living at
No. 41, Ironmonger-row, St. Luke's, and for some time
past she had suffered from a spasmodic affection. On
Tuesday last she was sent for to attend the deceased, and
found her very ill, and complaining of a violent pain.
Hot fomentations, castor oil, and leeches bad been ap-
plied, but no medical gentleman was called in, it being
against the religious tenets of the sect to which the de-
ceased belonged to do so. The deceased might have had
one, but she declined, saying 40 could do her no good.
The sect, to which she also belonged, styled themselves
" the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter-day Saints," their
place of meeting being in Castle-street, Cow-cross. They
dated their origin from the Apostles, and treated their
sick according to the following, taken from the last chap-
ter of the Epistle of St. James—" If any be ill amongst
you, ye shall eall for the elders of the Church, and anoint
yourself with oil in the name of the Lord." The jury
returned a verdict of " Natural Death," with a hope that
would act as a caution to the sect
medical cases for the future.

A LUCKY PURCHASE.—On Thursday morning
a very poor woman went to the shop of Mr. Tighe, pawn-
broker, of Deptford Broadway, and after a great
deal of bargaining, purchased an old flannel petticoat
for ls. 3d. She afterwards went into the shop of
Mr. Barton, butcher, where she complained that the
meat was as dear as the petticoat she had just bought;
at the same time displaying it. Mr. Barton took hold of
it, and feeling something hard in the hand, cut it open,
when, to the joy of the poor woman, two W. notes were
discovered. Mr. Tighe was sent for, and he handed the
money over to the police for them to make inquiry about
it. There cannot be a doubt, however, but that the
woman is entitled to it, Mr. Tighe not knowing in what
way the article came lute his pcoession.

to the amount of payments the Dublin Directors bpd

spondence which hae. recently taken place between al!,
London and Dublin Directors with respect to the Pri,e°
duction of the books of the Company, at present in tr.
hands of the Dublin Directors. Mr. Taylor then sub'
mitted a kind of Report of the Committee formed :a

but he, not having sufficient confidence, as it apps
the Committee, flatly refused to let the boas S

this, and matters began to assume a very threil;ttefj,
