(From the London Mercantile Journal of December 14.)
SUGAR.—For West India Muscovado Sugar the market
has continued firm, and a fair business has been done;
both the grocers and refiners have continued to purchase
steadily, and the transactions would no doubt have been
more extended had the show of samples exhibited a better
assortment.
There was less demand to-clay for British Plantation
Sugar, but holders were firm, and obtained the rates of
last week, except a public sale of 113 hhds and trcs Bar-
badoes, at which prices declined 6d per cwt ; middling
to fine sold at 66s 6d to 73s per cwt. The private sales
were only 100 hhds and trcs.
MAURITIUS.—OnIy 47 bags of this description have
been offered by public auction, which sold at 54s to 55s
for low foxy brown. Privately scarcely any business
has been done, and prices are little better than nominal.
EAST INDlA.—White qualities of Bengal continue
scarce, and buyers are unwilling to pay the prices asked.

middling greyish white at 65s to 665, soft bright yellow

good this week, at higher prices for the fine qualities.
Fine Antigua and Barbadoes have realised 30s, middling
St Vincents 265, and fair Dominica 25s per cwt.
COFFEE.—The market for home consumption descrip-
tions continues in a dull state with declining prices ;
but, as most of the importers still show a reluctance to
realize, the reduction is very gradual. Jamaica, fine
middling went at 130 s to 1325, good and fine ordinary at
70s to 96s ; Demerara, fine fine ordinary unclean at 725,
and ordinary at 55s to 61s per cwt. Ceylon at 81s to 94s
for fine ord and superior B.P. sort, and 65s to 66s for low
good ord; ord 66s to 66s 6d per cwt. In Mocha no sales
worth reporting, have taken place in the absence of
public sales. All other kinds of East India and Cape
descriptions of Coffee must be quoted 2s to 3s per cwt.
lower, with a dull sale. La Guayra at 41s Gd to 42s for
good ordinary, and about 500 bags Malabar sort at 52s
per cwt There was no public sale to-day, and privately
the operations were extremely limited, but the offers of
lower rates were rejected.
COCOA.—For West India descriptions, prices are still
depressed ; at 41s to 42s for good fair red, at 35s 6d to
37s 6d for fair dull red, and at 35s for ord dull red.
TEA.—The same dulness that has pervaded the market
for some weeks past is continued, and a further slight re-
duction has taken place in prices.
There was a fair demand to-day for Tea to supply
both town and country orders, and holders were firm ;
Company's Congou is 9-1-cl to 1s 91c1 per lb. The deli-
veries keep large.
CASSIA LlGNEA.—Another large parcel having been
pressed upon the market, a further reduction of Is to 2s
per cwt has taken place in the value of the article.
NUTMEGS.—There is a fair request, and prices are
steady. 18 casks from the Cape offered at public sale
went at 3s 9d for fair first quality.
GINGER.—East India continues in very limited request,
and prices remain very low ; .fine Bengal may be had at
17s to 18s per cwt.
PEPPER.—The market is dull, and a part only of 500
bags Malabar sold at 31-c1 to nd for fair quality, being
the full value.
RICE.—A small parcel of low Bengal at public sale
sold at 8s to 9s per cwt.
FRUIT. —The demand continues brisk for all descrip.
tions.

SPIRITS.—The Rum market continues quiet, but
as the holders do not press sales, prices are sup-
ported. The transactions of the week are confined to
a few small parcels, comprising Demerara of good
quality, 31 to 34 overproof at 3s 8d to 3s 10d, and
proof East India at Is 31d to Is 4d per gallon. The
nominal price of proof Leeward is Is 10d per gallon.
In consequence of the prices of Brandy in France
having opened about 3d per gallon higher than was
anticipated, this market has become firmer, and a fair
business has been done at an improvement of Id to 2d
per gallon, with a prospect of still higher prices. Ge-
neva m steady request at 2s to 2s hi for export, and at
2s 6d to 2s 9d fur home use. British Corn Spirits in de-
mand at 10s 4d per gallon.
Oms.---In the early part of the week some parcels
of common Fish Oils were pressing on the market by
the merchants, which created a flatness, and depressed
prices ; they have, however, been all cleared off, con-
sequently the market has become firm. In Sperm Oil
prices remit' as before quoted. Linseed Oil was dull of
sale early last week, and the price fell to 35s 6d, but few
sellers can now be found below 36s 9d or 37s per cwt. on
the spot. Rape Oil rather firmer.
Arrivals of new Olive Oil have caused a depression- in
the value of the article, and the market is quiet. Galt-
poli at 781 per tun. Cocoa Nut Oil firm ; fine Ceylon
fetches 40s and 40s 6d, duty paid. Palm Oil at former
prices.

TALLOW.—The advanced prices of Russian Tallow no-
ticed last week have been maintained; the latest price
paid for fine yellow Candle on the spot was 48s, at
which there are steady buyers, and for delivery up to
the end of the year 47s 9d would be accepted. For deli-
very in the spring months the nominal figure is 48s 6d
per cwt. South American Tallow at fair prices, from
43s to 46s 6d for low to good quality.
Tallow is not quite so much in demand, but prices
are steady. P. Y. C. on the spot 48s. per cwt.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS,--AN
EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—Mrs. Fry, of Trafalgar-street,
Walworth, was on the 16th of April last admitted to
Guy's Hospital, as a patient, with a bad leg of five years'
standing, it was nearly as hard as bone, with nine ulcers
and frightfully swollen. Not deriving the least benefit
from the treatment in the hospital, she left on the 16th
of May. On the 18th of October she was brought in a
cart to Professor Holloway's Establishment, with her leg
wrapped in a blanket. In five weeks it was radically
cured by means of the Ointment and Pills, which are
sold at the Proprietor systablishment, 244, Strand, near'
Temple-bar, where advice may be had gratis, and sold
by every respectable chemist throughout the kingdom, in
pots and boxes, at ls. lid., 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., Ils., 225., and
335. each.
THE CONCOCTED ADDRESSES TO THE TORT
LORD LIEUTENANT OF IRELAND.—It should be borne
in mind, that in every instance of an address to Earl de
Grey, from any part of Ireland, which has yet been pre-
sented, the parties are the old Orangemen and task-
masters of the people. It is important to remember this
plain act.
