MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the Landon New Price Current of March 31.)

SUGAR.—To-day there was less firmness in the home
consumption Sugar market. In West India purchases to a
fair extent were made. but merchants were compelled to
tAke rather lower rates, the supply at market being large
and the avortment better. The private sales amounted to
450 hhds and trcs.

---
REFINED.—To-day Refined goods were purchased with
caution by the home trade-63s to 63s 6d were the rates
taken for brown lumps according to quality, and 64s to
64s 6d for standard lumps. Bonded crushed Sugar is dull of
sale at 34s 6d to 35s for first quality.
MAunrrius —This afternoon there were three public sales
of Mauritius, comprising 8,499 bags, but the trade evinced
less desire to operate, and prices declined Is per cwt; nearly
the whole how Aver sold. There was no low brown in the sales.

FOREIGN.—To-day 4,202 bags of Pernambuco Sugar were
offered at public sale, and all taken in above the value, that
is to say, middling dry yellow at 23s to 245, low ditto 21s to
225, fine brown 20s, middling 19s, low damp ditto 17s mid-
dling 18s. fine 19s 6d, low yellow 203 to 215, and middling at
21s 6d to 22 per cwt.

attention, and 1,735 bags 58 chests at public sale were sold at
barely former rates. _ _

CoFFF.E.—This afternoon there was little inclination shown
to purchase Native Ceylon, and 815 bags at public sale were
only in part sold upon rather lower terms. In Mocha little
business was transacted privately. The market for all kinds
of Foreign has a dull aspect.
TEA.—Although there are sellers of Congou rather under
former rates, still the trade have purchased with caution.
For Pouchong prices kept pretty steady, but there has been
little business done. Hyson has been sparingly dealt in. In
Twatikay several put chases have been made, and at rates diffe--
ing ; little from those of last Tuesday. in Young Hyson
des to a fair extent have been made at 100 to Is 6d for
Canton, and at is 8d to 2s 10d :for low to fine Hyson
kind. Alih 'ugh Gunpowder can be procured at is 3d to
sg 5d for Canton, 2s 6d to 4s for good to fine llyson kind,
still little has been doing.
Snores.-=l'o-day of Nu'megs 31 cases 9 casks 3 bags, at
auction, were all sold, in consequence of merchants sub-
mitting to a reduction on former rates of ld per lb ; of Mace
5 casks sold at very full rates. Pimento is in request, and
99 bags at auction fetched 3%d to 33/4d for middling
rather mixed and stalky, being the full worth.
STMTS.—There has been little desire evinced to purchase
Jamaica Rum, but the stock not being large, holders are re-
luctant to lumber redaie their prices. For Demerara rather
lower rates have talietr, still the quantity sold has been
only 200 puns. Leeward Island is not offered upon
lower terms; but little business done. For Calcutta previous
rates are required, but there hasbeen little passing. Holders
of Brandy are unwilling to take lower rates, but there has
been little desire evinced to operate. For tine Geneva for
home consumption the demand has been brisk, but common
has been sparingly dealt in. British Corn Spirits are selling
at 10s 6d per gallon nett cash, Gin 22 per cent. underproof at
8s lOd, and 17 under Proof 9s 4d per gallon.
tsts public sale 1,500 bags of Madras Rice

tion baS taken place since last Tuesday, but the purchases
made have teen limited. For delivery in the last three
months of the year there are sellers of Petersburg yellow
Caudle of first qattlitilithond at 41s 6d to 42s per cwt, but
:there has been butjittle passing.
Ott.s.—Tlrere has been a good business transacted in Olive

duced rates are taken. Palm has been purchased with cau-
tion privately, and a decline in value has ensued. Cocoa
Nut has been in good request privately, but prices do not
improve, although the supply is small. There was little de-
sire shown to purchase Linseed Oil, and a decline.in the value
took place. Sperm has met with attention, and previous
improved rates are fully maintained.
