MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London Mercantile Journal 'if December 21.)
The Colonial Markets will close on Thursday for the
Christmas holidays ; and business will not be resumed
until the 4th of January.
SUGAR.—The West India market was very dull to-
day, the attention of the buyers being directed to the
public sales of Bengal, and the few transactions that
took place were at rather lower prices than accepted
at the close of the market on Friday last. 50 hhds
Trinidad were offered by public auction, and bought in
above the value at 60s to 63s for middling greyish yellow,
and at 58s for low yellow.
MAIIRMUS.— Two parcels were brought to public
sale, consisting of 6,463 bags, 146 boxes, the bulk of
which (4,700 bags) consisted of the new crop,
.per the
Science, just arrived ; the quality and condition of the
Sugar was not so desirable as could be wished. The
demand from the trade was very inactive, but nearly
the whole quantity was sold and in prices, with the ex-
ception of the old brown qualities, which were rather
cheaper, there was little variation from last week ; low
heavy brown sold at 40s to 41s, strong middling and
good middling brown at 47s to 48s, low mid yellow at
54s to 555, middling yellow at 57s 6d to 595, good mid-
dling bright yellow at 61s 6d to 625, good and fine bright
yellow at 66s 6d to 67s 6d, and very tine dry and colory
of a favourite mark (Le Breton) at 69s 6d to 71s 6d
per_cwt._ _ _ _

EAST INDIA.—The public sales of Bengal comprised
5,771 bags 233 boxes 162 casks, which went off heavily,
brown sorts at lower rates, but yellow and white fetched
full prices, brown 31s to 475, yellow 53s to 545, low to
fine white 62s 6d to 75s per cwt.
A parcel of Java, consisting of 643 bags, was put up
to auction and disposed of for refining at 15s to 15s 6d
for dry brown, and at 13s 6d to 14s 6d for washed
FOREIGN.-1,125 boxes yellow and 99 boxes white
Havannah Sugar were brought to the hammer, and
being of last year's importation were all bought in ; the
white at 32s for good, and at 23s to 23s 6d for low qua-
lity, the yellow at 21s 6d to 22s 6d for good and fine
quality.
REFINED.-7-The home trade goods continue in good de-
mand at the quotaJons. Foreign Refined in bond—in
Crushed some extensive sales having been recently made
at 28s 9cl; the refiners are now demanding 29s per cwt.
WEST INDIA MOLASSES.— The demand for this
article has become quiet, and prices have given way
about Is per cwt.; fine Antigua has soli at 29s 6d, fine
Trinidad at 265, and ordinary and middling St. Lucia at
23s to 25s per cwt.
COFFEE.—The market has been unusually quiet
this week ; not a single parcel has been offered by
public sale, and the private transactions have been ex-
tremely limited, with a downward tendency for prices,
though no actual decline can be quoted ; the importers
still being unwilling to press sales.
The public sales consisted of 110 casks Berbice, and
350 bags Ceylon ; the first being mostly of the better
class sold at full prices, viz., middling at 104 s to 110 s,
and fine middling at 115 s to 120 s ; the Ceylon realized
66s to 67s 6d for good ordinary pale and colory.
Cocoa is dull of sale, and prices rather easier ; 300
bags Trinidad at public auction only partly sold at 37s to
44s for low to good fair red.
GiNGEL—East India is still almost without inquiry,
and prices are very low ; only 200 bags Malabar have
been put up to public sale, which being of ordinary qua-
lity and old went at 8s 6d to 9s per cwt.
PIDIENTOo-111 the absence of a public sale, we are un-

able to report any change in the A slue of the article, and
very little business has been done. The stock continues
on the decrease.
CASSIA LIGNEA.-170 chests were brought to the
hammer and partly sold at full rates, middling at 8s 6d
per cwt.
PEPPER remains steady in price, but the del nand i 5
not lively ; 2,954 bags were put up to public sale, and
only partly sold at 3d to 30 for fair and good Malabar.
TEA.—The market has been inactive throughout the
week, further parcels being declared for public site next
Thursday, and for Tuesday, 28th inst. Fair c, m:nen
Congou has been sold for cash at is 9d to is Sid Per
lb. The deliveries continue good. Company's Congou
has declined to is 84d per lb. cash.

Congou is fild per lb. cash.
SAGO.-1,000 bags Pearl were brought to public sale
and disposed of at lOs 6d to 15s 6d for low to middling,
