MARKET INTELLIGENCE

I From the London Nett, Trice Current of Jan. 25.)
SUGAR.—Today there was increased firmness in the
Raw Sugar market, and a falling off in the supply of all
kinds was observable. The home trade appeared anxious
to increase their stocks, whilst exporters were inclined
to do business, and a rise in the value of all sorts
took place. West India of all qualitiesa was
in excellent request by refiners, and the grocers
were anxious to operate, but business was interfered
with by the chief part of the Sugar on show not being
suited for their purposes. Prices, as compared with
those of Friday, exhibit an advance of 6d to is
per cwt,
.and it is difficult to purchase dry brown
under 35s 16d. Supplies of all sorts is much re-
duced. The sales amount to 420 hhds, &c., including 123
hhds, 4 trs of Berbadoes, which went briskly at a rise on
former quotations of ed per cwt, fine yellow fetched 44s
to 455, good 42s 6d to 43s 61, good middling 41s flei to
425, middling 40s to 41s, and low 39s to 39s 6d per cwt.
The market for Raw Sugar closes with much firmness.
REFINED.—To day Refined goods were much sought
after by the home trade, and stiffer rates were offered,
but few parcels could be obtained. Prices closed firmly
at 55s to 558 6d for standard, and at 54s 6d for brown
grocery lumps. Bonded Crushed Sugar is unaltered in
value, bur the market is dull.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar of all
kinds was in excellent request privately, and 2,996 bags
at public sale were sold at an advance of is per cwt;
good yellow fetched 40s to 41s, middling 38s 6d to
39s 6d, low 36s 6d, middling brown 325, low 29s 6d to
30s, washed 28s 6d to 395, syrupy 36s to 38s, sugar
drainage damaged 31e to 39s 6d per cwt.
EAST INDIA..—This afternoon the public sales of
Bengal Sugar, consisting of 1085 bags and 168 chests
went off briskly at 6d. per cwt. advance—good soft yel-
low but dingy fetehed 40s 6d to 41s, middling 35s 64 to
365, low 34s 6d ; Bemires, fine sound white 47s to
47s 6d, good 44s to 45s 6d, middling 42s to 435, damaged
white 40s to 445, yellow 34s to 355. Of Ceylon 109
casks sold at improved rates, and went at 36s for mid-
dling yellow. Privately large parcels of Bengal and
Madras Sugar were disposed of.
FOREIGN.—To-day there was no public sale of any
kind of foreign Sugar, but privately sales to a fair ex-
tent were made, and rather higher rates paid. The
market has a firm appearance, and supplies are on the
decrease.
MOLASSES —The dulness in the market for West
India Molasses has increased, all kinds having been
dealt in with much caution ; and there is a plen-
tiful supply. The value of West India is 15s to 17s
according to quality. In Bengal Treacle there is still
nothing doing, and prices are nominal, whilst there is a
fair supply. Honey is offered upon rather lower terms.
COFFEE.—This afternoon Native Co} ion met with a
more active demand, and 706 bags at auction were all
disposed of at full market prices and in some cases
rather above. Plantation was in excellent request,
and at public sale 58 casks, 578 bags were sold
at stiffer prices, good coloury fetched 605., good middling
58s, middling 50s to 535, low middling 47s to 48s 6d, fine
fine ordinary,43s to 465, fine greyish ordinary 38s to 41s6d,
goad ordinary 35s gd, ordinary 33, pea berry 545. da-
maged 26s to 475, and triage 26s to 29s per cwt. Of
Mocha 90 bales, and 64 bags were nearly all taken in,
yellow long berry at 905, a few lots sold, good yellow,
not long bean at 57s to 578 6d, middling greenish 525,
broken 405, and damaged Is 6d to 39. per cwt. The
market for Foreign Coffee had a tranquil appearance,
and the supply was larger. At auction 322 bags, 162
barrels, 20 trs of Brazil were taken in at the full value.
TEL.—There is firmness on the part of the holders
of all descriptions, and the supply is on the decrease,
whilst the --home trade are desirous to get supplied.
The rates obtained for Black are fully equal to those of
this day week,
and from the town and country trade
a good demand has been experienced. In Green
extensive purchases have been made in all kinds,
and previous improved rates Ire well sus-
tained ; indeed in some cases rather MOTO money
