MARKET INTELLIGENCE

(From the London New Price Current of Aug. 31.)
Sucatt.—To- day no further advance took place in the
value of Raw Sugar, still there was no material de-
crease in the home or export demand, as buyers were
desirous to operate, and merchants evinced firmness.
West India Muscovado was in good request, and for all
purposes; whilst the rates obtained were equal to those
of Friday, and the private sales reached 350 hhds and
tree. A public sale of 151 hhtls and 52 trcs Barbadoes
went off at full quotations, viz., fine) ellow at 45s to 465,
eood 43s to 44s 6d, middling 41s to 42s 6d, law 39s to
40s 6d per cwt, and the whole sold.
REFINED.—To-day Refined goods were in excellent
request by the home trade, and prices were firm, at 56s
for standard, and 55s for brown grocery Lumps. Bonded
Crushed Sugar dull of sale; first sort at 31s 6d to 325.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Madras
sugar offered at public sale amounted to 5,660 bags; the
strong sorts sold at
.tie full value, but soft kinds were
chiefly taken in at stiffer rates. Of Bengal the four
parcels offered at public sale amounted to 5,434 bags;
the white and soft yellow kinds were chiefly taken in
above the value.,

MOLABBEB.—Holders submitting to further reduced
rates for West India, caused 600 puns to be sold at 14s
to 19s for low to fine.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon the demand was active
for all sorts-: and two parcels offered at public sale,
amounting to 7,410 bags were nearly all sold at the full
currency of Friday.
FonEicx.—The demand continues on the increase for
all descriptions of Foreign Sugar. and for every pur-
pose, whilst merchants have manifested more firmness,
and supplied the market less freely. The demand has
been good by private treaty from export.-rs, and the
purchases made by them have been at prices showing an
advanee, on those previously current, of 6 I per cwt.
TEA.—The market has been in a tranquil state since
our last report. and the small amount of business trans-
acted privately was at rather lower rates for green,
but black is generally held ter the former currency. Tne
ealueofeennaton soundCongou for cash is 94. good ord
Twankay. low yellowish leaf 7d to 8,1. and Hyson com-
mon Is 2d to 44 per lb. 31 the 5,500 pkgs offer, d at
public sale, ,inly 1.200 were sold: There has been no
arrival since this day week; whilst during that time duty
was paid on the large quantity of 513,946 pounds.
CoreeE.—This after noon the demand for Mocha Coffee
was limited, and 270 bales, 12 half-bales, at Ruction were
only in part sold at former rates—mid yellowish clean
garbled 61s, ordinary 50: 61, and triage 25s 611. but :ow
mid yellow was taken in at 58s. Native Ceylon is
little required, and 1,222 bags only in part sold at easier
rates—real good ordinary at 375, good ordinary 36s 64,
and damaged 31s 6(1 to 355. Of Plantation the quantity
offered at public sale amounted to 915 bags and 6 casks,
when the whole sold, but at rather lower rates.
RICE.—To-dity there was little demand for Ea,t India
Rice, and privately only small parcels were sold. At
public sale 1,452 pockets Bengal were off red; tLe sound
was taken in at the full value—low white, dusty, and
rather broken at 15s to 15s 64, but the damaged sold at
9s to 14s. Of 1,350 bags Madras, the sound was mostly
bought in at the full worth.
SPICES. -- To-day at public sale two cases of Mace
sold at 2s lld to 3s for middling dull red : 5 cases
Nutmegs ordinary brown 2s Bd, middling 2a 9d to
2s 10d, and good middling 3s 3d per lb.
SPIRITS.—There has been a good business transacted
in all descriptions of Jamaica Rum since Tuesday last,
in consequence of holders submitting to a reduction on
former rates of Id per gallon. The sales have amounted
to 400 puns. Of Havannah there are several par-
cels on offer at is 8d to is 9d proof strength,
but few .buyers are to be met with. East
India is heavy of disposal and can be obtained at the
moderate rates of 25 to 3s id proof, with certificate. To-
day 200. puns Jamaica Rum were sold at rather
lower
rates, viz. to 38 per cent overproof at 35 Sd to 3s
10d for middling and good quality. Leeward Island is
dull of sale at 25 3d to 29 44, and Calcutta at Is lld to
2s per gallon proof strength.
INDlClo.—Although East India can be obtained rather
under the quotations of the last quarterly sale, still all
kinds have been operated in with caution by the home
trade, whilst the shipping orders are trifling. Spanish
is little required, and there are sellers of Cortes at
Is 10d to 2s 9i, cobras 2s 94 to 35 54, and of Flores at
3s 64 to 4i 44 per lb.
Lec InE.—The deliveries are going on -satisfac-
torily, and nearly as large as they wr re in the past
season by nearly one-hilf, and the whole of the stock
is smaller by 2.317 chests. P. ices are, however. above
those of la e y. ars, and the q iiintity expected to arrive
is small. Holders have conti wilco, and bubrnitced none
to ;uw is auction; but privately the purchases made
have, been of little moment.
COCHINEAL.—To-day only a limited demand existed,
end 67 bags Mexican at auction wore only in part sold
