MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current of August 18.)

SUGAR.—To-day importers of West India Muscovado
Sugar evinced firmness, and the home trade were inclined to
further increase their stock; all kinds were in excellent re-
quest for the scale and pan • the rates paid in several cares
were even 6d per cwt above those of Friday.
REFINED.—To. day Refined Goods were much in request
by the home trade, and higher rates were paid ; brown
lumps selling at 63s to 645, and standard lumps 64s 6d to 65s
per cwt. Tne business transacted has been greater than for
some time. Bonded Crushed Sugar is more w.,nted, and
cannot be obtained under 34e per cwt. for first quality.
Miusmus.—Thls afternoon Mauritius was in excellent
request, and 1,640 bags 123 casks 244 tierces off red at
public sale were sold at an advance on former rates of 6d to
is per cwt.
FOREIGN.—To-day slave-labour Sugar, imported by British
ships, was much sought after by private treaty; but busi-
ness of moment was prevented by the stiff rates asked by
holders. For Sugar received by foreign ships the market,
however, has a tranquil appearance; but former prices are
insisted upon. None of any kind was offered at public sale.
MOLASSES.—AIthough all qualities of West India cAn be
obtained upon lower terms, still there has been scarcely any
business transacted: the supply is on the increase, and the
value of low to fine quality is 19s to 2,5 s per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Madras
Sugar submitted to public competition amounted to 7,251
bags, a fair part of which found buyers at prices exhibiting
a rise on those previously current of 6d per cwt.
Te:A.—The market has assumed a dull appearance for Tea,
and by private contract few purchases have been made in
black or green ; merchants do not show much firmness. At
the public sale. held to-day, consisting of 30,000 packages,
little desire was shown by the trade to operate in any rind,
although there were sellers of nearly all sorts rather under
the rates that previously existed.
COFFEZ.—This afternoon Ceylon Coffee was in excellent
demand, and 1,400 bags at auction were all sold at firm rates.
140 bags of Company's Java were sold at easier rates. 232
bags of East India went at low rates.
COCOA.—Foreign is little wanted, and prices have slightly
given way, although the quantity brought to market has
been small. At auction 33 bags of Bahia were sold at 32s
for fair red. In West India the business transacted has been
extremely limited by private contract, and none has been
submitted to public competition.

CoatisEaL.—Holders have more confidence, and refrain
from offering any at public sale; the demand is improving,
and the parcels disposed of by private contract were at rather
higher rates. •
SPIOES.—To-day Ginger met with little attention, 837
bags of Malabar at auction were nearly all taken in at 20s for
rough export sort; 103 cases of Calicut at 45s far brown
home consuruption kind; 49 brls of Jamaica sold at easier
rates, at 33s to 38s, middling 42s to 51s. Nutmegs were
more in demand, and 7 chests ut Singapore sold at auction.
FRUIT.-It having been ascertained that the stock of
currants is considerably less than was calculated upon,
with an increased consumption, has induced the grocers to
purchase more freely at advanced quot,2tions, and there being
now on'y a very small portion in the importers' hands, they
have advanced their price for l'atral to 50s. Of Valentias
there are scarcely any remaiLing, and are much sought after.
SALTrivraE.—To- day rough only was in limited demand,
and 682 bags of Calcutta at auction were chiefly taken in at
27s for good strong white 21/2," per cent. refraction, being the
full worth. _

Srturrs.—Jamaica Rum cannot be obtained upon lower
terms, but little business has been transacted, and only smell
parcels have been taken by exporters or the home trade,
30 or 38 per cent. over proof at 3s 8d to 4s 2d, fine 4e 3d to
ss; high flavoured sorts would bring above the latter rate,
but of such there is little in the market. Demerara is wanted,
and prices rule firm. To -day there was but little desire
evinced to operate in any kind of Rum, and holders experi-
enced difficulty in keeping up prices for East India or West
India.

INDIGo.—The accounts being very favourable from Bengal
and Math as for the Indigo crop, cause the demand here to be
extremely limited for all descriptions of East India,from ex-
porters arid the home trade, in some cases there are sellers
rather under the rates of the last quarterly sale. Spanish ha*
met with little attention, and pnvious quotations are not to
be obtained.
