'rom the London New Price Current of April 17.)
SUGAR.—This afternoon the first public sate of New Bar
badoes this season took place, and consisted of about 14
hhds 5 trcs ; it attracted a large attendance of the hom
trade. The colour of the Sugar was inferior t o that of las
year, still the sale went off a ith much animatio and at goo,
prices, indeed the rates obtained were above the general valu
ations, fine yellow brought 55s to 56s 64, good 63s to 54s
middling 50s 6d to 52s 6d, low 49s 6d to 50 per cwt. C
West India the private sales were 220 hhds a ud tierces a
former rates, making the total quantity sold A,r the wee'
870 hhds and tierces; the smallness of the quay tity is to b
attributed to the continued scanty supply at Blanket.
REFIXED.— There has been more inclination shown by th
home trade to purchase Refined Sugar this week, And a goof
business has been transacted in all descriptions at firn
prices; the market is not very largely supplied, although th
refiners continue freely at work ; stocks held Ily the grocer
are small everywhere, the consumption continiaes to be good
and Refined is very moderate in price compa.sed with rev
Sugar.

Mauritius Sugar, and 8,944 bags at public sale were all soh
at prices generally showing an advance on thus S previousb
quoted of 6d per cwt.

tention. At public sale 1,353 bags, all Dacca, were offered

but the offers made at reduced rates are. rejected by the
merchants. Pouchong is dull of sale, and. Sid to 10d are
the rates taken for according to quality. T be better sorts Of
Twankay have been purchased with more freedom at about
the former currency. Scented Orange Pekoe ,can be obtained
upon lower terms. Hyson of common quality has been rather
more in request at is lid to 2s. Id, but the lac tter sorts have
met with little attention, and prices are on the decline. For
Gunpowder prices remain much the same. :imperial can be
obtained upon easier terms, but the demand has been limited.
Young Hyson is heavy of disposal, and som e holders are in-
clined to accept rather lower rates.
RICE—To-day two parcels of Bengal M.:se, amounting to
3,839 bags, were submitted to public compea. tion. The im-
porters were desirous to sell, and submitted to a reduction on

vance. In Calcutta a good business has b eim transacted:

INDroo.—The market for East India is in. an unsatisfac-
tory state ; there are sellers of all descriptio• as upon reduced
terms ; still exporters and the home trade are not inclined
to increase their stocks materially, low as p, rices are, and the

good. The quarterly sale, which commen red on Tuesday',

THE WEATHER IN SCOTLAND.—The rain has brought
milder and more genial weather. Monday an d yesterdai
were tolerably warm ; but the sky is not wit&out its clouds.
A correspondent in Argyleshire says :—" TI is weather for
the last fortnight has been in every instance suitable for
agricultural operations. During the present a .nd past week
oat sowing has become general, and in some places sevoral
fields of potatoes have been planted. We learn from Perth,
that the favourable weather which prevailed du ring the las!
two weeks was succeeded, on Sunday last, by rai n. It rained
heavily for the most part of the day, accompan'ted by thun-
der and lightning, and continued up to Monday . tfternoon, by
which the soil is so saturated that sowing, in th e mean time,
is at an end.—Edinburgh Weekly Register.

pany's service, residing at Boulogne, had Weft tapped thrice wit>ti!

victim to this terrible complaint, when he commenced the rubbing In
of Holloway's invaluable Ointment, and as effectually ae salt L.
