(From the London New Price Current of March 5.)
SLIGAII.—To-day there was a greater desire manifested, by
both refiners and grocers, to operate in raw sugar, and the
country brewers came
into the market with more freedom.
In some instances a slight improvement in the value took
place. The market altogether has a firmer appearance.
West India Muscovado was sought after for all purposes, and
rather higher rates were offered; but business of moment was
prevented by the scanty supply, and only 150 hhds and trcs
were, in consequence,. sold, making the total sales for the
week 310 hhds and tierces.
RLFINED.—To-day large purchases were made in Refined
Gcods by the home trade, in consequence of there being
some sellers upon previous reduced rates. Bonded Crushed
Sugar is held with firmness, first quality at 36s per cwt.
Loaves are much wanted.

natrurrits.—The supply at market continuing to be ex-
tensive, and merchants eager to realise, produced a further
fall in prices of Is per cwt; still the demand from grocers
and refiners has been good, and sonic parcels have been pur-
chased by the brewers in the country. The quantity brought
forward to public sale, amounting to 16,196 bags, all found
buyers.
EAST ISDIA.—This afternoon Bengal Sugar met with
more attention; and the parcels offered at auction, amount-
ing to 3,101 bags, were all sold: white and the better sorts
of yellow at a rise of 6d per cwt, whilst brown and inferior
yellow sold at the former currency.
MoLAssEs.—The market is still in a dull state for West
India of all sorts, and there is a fair quantity offering for
sale. Few buyers are to be met, with, although there are
sellers at a further reduction in prices, and 2ls to 25s 6d is
the value of low to fine. East India Treacle is dull of sale
at 23s to 25s per cwt.
FOREIGN.-11olders of Foreign Sugar, available. for home ,
consumption, are not so desirous to reduce their stocks, and
.
the market has been lees freely supplied ; but the
,quantity
on offer is chiefly the better description...
By private con.
tract the demand has been good from refiners and grocers,
in consequence of rather lower rates being taken.
COFFEE.—This afternoon good ordinary pale NatNatoCeylon was in good request by private treaty,
,
difficulty to be obtained under 44s per t
and was with
Plantation is
wanted, and 541 bags at public sale sold at stiff rates.
TEA.—Holders of all descriptions of both black and green
have manifested less firmness this week, and which can be
