MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current of Nov. 21.)
Sr-GAIL—To-day the demand diminished for all sorts
of Raw Sugar, and former rates were not to be obtained
in consequence of a much larger supply at market. West
India was dealt in with caution for all purposes, and in
some cases the rates accepted are rather under those
of Friday. The purchases are only 380 hhds, &c., in-
cluding a public sale of 150 hhds Barbadoes, which went
ice off at former rates, but without spirit; good yellow re-
alised 37s to 38s 6d, middling 35s Gd to 36s 6d, and low
34s 6d per cwt. The market for both Colonial and
Foreign Sugar closes flatly.
ItEFINED.—To•day Refined 'goods met with less de-
mand for home trade purpose:, and prices declined to
46s 6d to 47s for brown, and 48s for standard Lumps.
• Bonded Crushed Sugar is yet in small supply, and much
„ in demand.
!78 EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Madras
• Sugar offered at public sale was large, and amounted to
• 6,864 bags; a dull demand existed, and a small part only
sold at prices 6d to Is under those current on Friday:
middling soft yellow went at 31s 6d to 325, low 30s to
% 31e, fine brown 29s to 29s 6d, good 28s 6(1 to 295,
low and middling 27s to 25,, tine strong yellow
38s to 40s, good 36i to 375, low 33s to 355, brown 30s to
32s 6d. Or Ben gal 4,381 bugs were put up, and only in
part found purchasers at barely the former value; fine
grainy yellow went at 39s to 41s, middling and good
35s Gd to 38s 6d, low 33s 6d to 3.55, and middling to fine
Mauritius kind 34s to 39s per cwt.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar met
, with little attention, and the public sales of 5,729 bags
went off flatly at a reduction of 6d per cwt; fine yellow
,34 sold at 38s to 40s, good 36s to 37s 6d, middling 34s 6d to
77 35s 6tl, low 33s 6d to 345, fine brown 32s 6d to 335, good
i 325, low to good grey 33s to 375, and out of condition 32s
; to 35s 6d; a part only found buyers. The bulk con-
sisted of the lower kinds.
FOREIGN.-To=day there was no public sale of Foreign
Sugar, and shippers as well as home trade buyers made
purchases with caution in the private market; in prices,
lee, however, little variation took place.
MOLASSES.—Former rates are well supported for West
India, and a fair amount of business has been concluded
at fully former rates, indeed some parties will not sell
) thereat. For low to fine the prices paid are from 15s to
5 18s per cwt. East India Treacle has been sold to a fair
extent at Iss to 15s 6d per cwt, and a less quantity is
on offer. For Honey • rather more money has been ob-
tained.

COFFEE.-This afternoon there was more firmness on
the part of holders of Coffee, and the market was less
,„ freely supplied with both home trade and shipping sorts;
there is, however, not much desire evinced to do busi-
ness privately. At public sale 699 bags 27 casks Ceylon
were all sold; fine Plantation went rather higher, and
all other sorts at full rates; Native, good ordinary rata-
• lised 26s 6d to 275, ordinary 265, damaged 21s to 265;
Plantation, very fine 70s to 725, fine 62s 6d to 65s 6d,
good 52s to 596, low middling 435, fine fine ordinary 35s
to 375, fine ordinary 32s to 335, fine ordinary brickey
29s 6d, and damaged 21s to 40s.
COCOA.-West India is not much in demand, and
former rates are barely supported. Red is to be obtained
at from 38s to 435, and grey 36s to 395. The market
for Foreign is dull, at 29s to 32s per cwt.
TEA.-For public competition on Thursday the quan-
tity declared is 700 pkgs of Assam. Black has been
dealt in with caution, and quotations still incline down-
: wards, as the market is well supplied with most kinds.
Congou of ord quality is to be purchased at bid to 7d,
os. good ord lid, mixed blackish leaf 8d to 81d, Blackish
leaf 9d to 10d, strong lld to is id, ditto and Pekoe fla-
vour Is 2d to is 9d; Souchong, low and mid 8d
% to is 2d, good and fine is 4d to 2s 4d, and Pouchong
4d to 7d. For Green the market has a dull aspect, and
Bs, sellers are inclined to realise : Hysou of ord quality is
- to be obtained at is to Is 2d, mid is 3d to is 6d, good
Is 7d to 2s, fine 2s 2d to 38 3d ; Hyson skin, ord 6d to
Bd, better kind 9d to is 4d ; Young Hyson 8d to
Is 3d, good to fine is 4d to 3s 6d ; Imperial
Canton 10d to Is 2d, Hyson sort is 3d to
3s, Gunpowder Canton is to Is sd, Ilyson sort
Is 6d to 3s 4d, fine 3s 6d to 4s, Caper 7d to Is 6d; Twan-
key, ord 50 to 6d, British 6d to 9d, and Hyson kinds
10d to is. The dealings in other sorts of little moment.
Orange Pekoe of ord sod mid quality can be purchased
at 7d to Is, good and fine scented Is 2d to 2s, black leaf
Pekoe 10d to is Bd, and flowery Is to 3s per lb. Dealers
in both town and country are but moderately supplied,
and the consumption continues to exceed that of this time
in the former year,
Rios.-To-day there was not much desire manifested
14 to do business in East India Rice. At auction 1,697
bags of Bengal were only in part sold at rather lower
rates:-very good clean white went at 12s, damaged
7s 6d to lls 6d, mid and good mid sound taken in at
- listo I is 6d, low 10s to 10s 6d; 4,462 bags Madras
went 3d to Gd per cwt cheaper, but the chief part sold;
mid pinky white at 8s to 8s 6d, good 8s Gd to 9s, and
damaged 5s 6d to 7s 6d. A public sale of 4,200 bags
Java Rice is declared for Thursday, as well as 500 chests
of Pearl Sago.
FRUIT.-There is much firmness in the market, and
an extensive demand; the moderate rates cause dealers
to get into stock. New Currants are selling at 36s to
395, Upper Gulf Fruit 34s to 355, old 31s to 345, Va-
leutia Raisins prime 38s, other sorts 35s to 375, Impe-
pial 80s to 100 s, Carabourna 38s, Muscatels 403 to 85r;
French Plums 70s to 80s; Prunes, old 20s to 21s; New
Sultana Raisins 70s to 755. red Smyrna 375; Turkey
pulled Figs 56s to 90s; Jordan Almonds 61 10s to 81
per cwt.
SALTPETRE.-There is firmness on the part of holders
!hi of Rough, and they continue to supply the market
sparingly. A good home and export demand exists, and
- the rates paid are fully equal to those current on
- this day week. The value of low to fine quality is
25s to 275. At auction 2,000 bags of Calcutta
realised 25s for middling 9 per cent refraction, damaged
Ice. 22s 6d to 235. The stock is not much larger than last
year, but deliveries exhibit a material increase, and
prices are lower by 2s to 3s per cwt. British refined has
been in excellent request at 28s 6d to 295. For Nitrate
of Soda the market is dull at 11s 6d to 12s, and the ten-
dency of prices is to recede.
SPIRITS.-Brandy is not lower in value, still buyers
make purchases with caution, deliveries keep upon a
large scale, and the stock is moderate. For Cognac
best brands of the vintage of 1815 holders ask 5s id
to 5s 3d, 1846 4s 9d to 4s lid, 1847 3s 9d
to 3s lid, interior 3s to 3s 4d, Bordeaux 28 4d
o 2s 9d, Spanish 2s 3d to 2s 4d, and French 50 per
' cent over proof 2s to 2s 2d per gallon. Geneva is not
much wanted, ord is to be purchased at 2s to 2s ld, and
fine for duty at 2s 6d to 3s 6d. For British made Spirit
the market has a dull aspect, and the stock is getting
larger ; distillers are also willing sellers, as the condition
is not so good as of late. To•day Ruin met with little
attention, proof East India is only worth is 2id to is 3d,
Leeward Island is 3d to Is 4d, and Jamaica 30 per cent
(cc over of fair quality 3s per gallon.
COCHINEAL.- This afternoon a brisker sale was ex-
- perienced for Cochineal, and 166 bags of Honduras at
auction sold at 3s 5d to 3s I Id for good ordinary to good
I silvers, and which are higher rates by Id per lb.
TALLOW.-For public competition on Friday the quan-
tity declared amounts to 500 packages. The stocks far
i exceed that of this time last year; the excess in imports
tow. is also considerable, but the deliveries are 6,000 casks
st 4 greater. Prices differ little from those current at that
.% time. The demand has been active for Russian on
iu the spot, and a rise in the value is visible, fine
'ls• P. Y. Candle realising 45s 3J to 45s 6d per cwt. Oa the
• part of holders there is also firmness. For delivery up to
the close of the year several purchases are reported at 45s
to 45s 3d, but for the early part of 1849 little business
'34 has been done. Home made finds a ready sale at 455,
od to 45s Gd net cash. All other sorts of Tallow are
twanted, and stiffer rates are paid. At auction 47 pps of
48 South American found buyers at 42s 6d to 45s for mid
to fine, and 135 casks of Sydney at 43s 6d to 459* 6d.
Rough Fat is, however, still quoted at 2s 7d per stone
Gd of 8 pounds.
/44 OILS.-Tie cheapness of Cod Oil has induced buyers
6, to operate with greater freedom, and at 231 10s per tun
ed. several parcels were disposed of. For Seal there is a dull
,edi, market, yet no further fall in the value has taken place.
,03. There is a fair supply at market of most sorts. Southern is
1, more in demand, and is held for fully former rates-low to
ed fine quality realises 231 10s to 241 15s, and good to fine 25/
°' to 27/; the supply has much diminished. For Sperm
there is yet an active sale, and prices keep on the rise,
the best Colonial is worth Ail/ to 82/ per tun, and
only a limited quantity is on offer. On the spot
Linseed Oil has been dealt in with caution,
Ice. and is offered at the low rates of 21s 6d to 21s 9d, as there
is an abundant supply. For delivery, however, more
desire is shown to do business, and sales have been made
for March and the following six months at 23s to
23s 6d per cwt. The consnmption continues to be
of a satisfactory nature, and is likely so to keep
on account of the low rates. Rapeseed Oil sells
with more readiness, and prices have become firm.
Palm met with a good demand, but as several arrivals
are near at hand prices do not advance; they rule at
336 6d to 34s for fine, and 31s to 33s for other sorts.
Fine Exportation Lard Oil is offered at 425, and Ameri-
%
can at 408. Cocoa Nut is little wanted, and must be
'% quoted lower. At auction 131 blids, 60 tons of fine
Cochin were only in part sold at 39s 6d to 40s;
103 pps 78 hhds Ceylon 38s to 39s 6d. The value of
Sydney is 33s to 36s per cwt. For Olive prices keep on
the decline, and buyers operate with caution; Gallipoli
is to be obtained at 45/ to 45/ 10s, Spanish and Sicily 43/
to 44/, Barbary, Levant, and Portugal 42/ to 42/ 10s.
For public sale 50 packages of Cocoa Nut Oil are
, declared. Seal Oil is 30s to 40s per tun lower than
at this time last year. Sperm and Southern are also
cheaper.

HULL, Nov. 21.

According to Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular
business of every kind has been very inactive during the
past week: the Heather more favourable, and good pro-
gress now making with seed operations; the show of
wheat at this day's market was consequently smaller
than of late, but fully up to the wants of millers, who
being pretty well in stock are shy buyers. A good show

of foreign, but the trNtie very dull, and the bulk of th
above arrival goes to granary. We quote the market Is
lower than last week for all descriptions of wheat. Tli greater part of our barley import is of malting quality,
and such is very bad to sell, even at a reduction of is to
23 per qr., the new English working better than was
feared; grinding sorts are comparatively scarce, and go
off freely at full prices; momentarily the market is al-
most clear, but further arrivals are expected. The
transactions in other kinds of spring corn are limited,
but we have mere inquiry for beans and the better sorts
of peas. With only an insignificant arrival of linseed
the actual business in this article has been very trifling,
and we are unable to alter our quotations. Firmness is
the characteristic feature of the trade. More doing in
linseed cakes for present delivery at our quotations, with
less business for forward. Rapeseed saleable at our quo-
tation;, and the market unsupplied. Rape cakes re-
covered from their late depression. In bones nothing
doing.

LEEDS, Nov. 21.—The winds being a little more fa-
vourable the last few days, we have a better show of
grain to-day than last week. There has been but little
business done, though a decline of Is. to 2s. per qr, is
submitted to on the best qualities of wheat and barley,
and in some instances a still greater reduction on other
qualities. We can note no alteration in the value of oats
or beans.
LIVERPOOL, Nov. 21.—Favourable winds for several
days have brought up a fleet of vessels, and we have
large supplies of the leading articles of the corn trade
from our own coasts and from abroad. Duties have
been paid at this port between the 11th and 17th of
November inclusive, on foreign wheat, 84 qrs.; foreign
flour, 536 brls.; colonial flour, 212 brls,• Indian corn,
8,440 qrs.; foreign peas, 1,925 qrs.; Indian meal, 35
brls.; foreign barley, 872 qrs. Indian corn has been in
good demand, and prices are supported, but for every
other article of the trade the demand has been very
languid, with a downward tendency of value. There was
a fair attendance of town and neighbouring millers at
this morning's market. Wheat was saleable only in
small quantities, at a reduction of 2d to 3d per bushel
on the rates of last Tuesday. Flour was dull, and Is
per sack and barrel lower. Oats declined id to Id per
bushel, but the show of good mealing quality was very
small. Oatmeal was 3d to 6d per load cheaper.
Egyptian beans supported late rates. Peas were is to
2s per qr. lower. Malting barley met a fair sale at a
reduction of is per qr. The demand for Indian corn
was less active to-day, but the value was considered un-
altered.
PETERBOROUGH, Nov. 18.—The weather during the
last week has been vary fine, which has enabled the farmers to make great progress with their wheat seed-
ing. The supply of all grain is good to this day's
market. Wheat is 2s lower. Barley and beans Is
cheaper. Oats 6d to is lower. Wheat, new 42s to 445,
to OOs, fine 405 to 52a, old, 48s to 50s, fine 54s to Oos.

BISHOP'S STORTFORD, Nov. 17.—The supply of wheat
at market was moderate, for which there was but little
demand, at prices is per quarter lower. The supply of
barley was large, and although purchases were made to
a considerable extent, the prices declined is to 2s per
quarter, but with little trade. Wheat, old 44s to 50s,
new 445 to 48s; barley 29s to 365, oats 17a to 265, beans

HOP INTELLIGENCE.--WORCESTER,
The supply supply of new hops on Saturday did not amount to
more than from 400 to 500 pockets, the greater part of
which was soon disposed of; and although no advance
could be obtained, everything with a fair share of colour
realised full prices, which are likely to be maintained;
and from the scarcity of brewers' samples in offer, we
shall probably see hops of that class higher very shortly.
The following are now the correct quotations:--Best
new Worcester's, 565. to 655. per cwt. ; middling and
low, 425. to 50s. per cwt.; 1846'5, 355. to 445. per cwt.
The number of pockets of hops weighed in the week:—
New, 185; old, 55. Saturday :—New, 262; old, 6.
