MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.

(From the " London New Price Current" of yesterday.)

SUGAR.-The Sugar Market remained very/dull all last
week, and when sales were effected, a reduction of 6d. to
la. per cwt. was submitted to ; the decline was not,
however, genera], as many of the holders would not submit
to any reduction, and declined selling ; the total purchases
of the week were limited to 1,800 hhds. and trs. The
Market opened very heavily this morning, and has conti-
nued dull throughout the day. The estimated sales are
only a few hundred hhds. and ire. The prices were nearly
the same as realised on Friday last, but the Market is
exceedingly heavy. The Barbadoes public sale 120 Wills.
went off Is. lower than the last sale, mid. quality 60s. a
655. The stock of West India Sugar is now
-42,913 hhds.
and trs., being 5,073 more than last year. The stock of
Mauritius 102,514 bags, being 56,112 more than last
year. The delivery of West India is 2,260 hhds. and trs.,
being 1,224 less than last year. The delivery of Mauritius
is 5,555 bags, being 1,661 more than the corresponding
week of 1832. The Refined Market last week remained
in an inactive and nominal state; the few purchases re-
ported were altogether for home consumption, which were
confined to small parcels for the immediate wants of the
trade. The Market this afternoon remains in the same
dull and nominal state which we have lately reported.
111A.URITIUS SUGAR.-Mauritius Sugar fell 6d. to Is.
per cwt. last week, brown, 555. a 57a., yellow, 58e. a
61s. This day's public sale 409 bags went off heavily, at
the decline we have stated i❑ the market prices, ls. per
cwt., fair to fine yellow, 575. a 665. 6d.
EAST INDIA SUGAR.--The few sales of East India
Sugars were at the redaction of Is. 6d. a 2s. per cwt.,
the decline we mentioned in our last publication.
FOREIGN SUGAR.-There were no sales of Foreign
Sugar reported last week. This day's public sale 431
chests, 16 qr. chests, '7B boxes, 33 brio. Brazil Sugar,
Pername, and Bahia sold about 2s. lower, brown Bahia
sold 205., white, 245. a 245. 6d. Average price of Sugar,
11. 15s. 101 d. per cwt.
Comm.-The few sales of Foreign Coffee last week
went off at a reduction of 2s. a 4s. per cwt. ; ord. Ha-
vanna 635., good to fine ord. coloury 655. a 68s. 6d. ;
ord. pale Brazil 635., was also at lower rates. East India
was dull and lower, some ord. brown Sumatra sold 555.
and 555. 6d. In British Plantation descriptions there was

a 975. 6d., mid. 103 s. a 104 s. fine ord. 90s. a 995.,
triage 85s. a 86s. 6d. ; 125 bags Sumatra, ord. 545. a

good ord. to good Trinidad 675. a 76a. 6d.
Rust, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS....-.The Rum Market
continues firmly advancing, poor Leewards now held at
2s. 3d., Jamaica at about Id. advance. In Brandy or
Geneva there is little variation.

TALLOW. -The Market suddenly gave way Is. yester-
day, without any reason assigned : to-day it is more firm.
IRISH PaovisioNs.-The arrivals of Foreign Butter in
the last week were 5,943 casks-of Irish 5,916 firkins,
and of Bacon 1,210 bales. The price of fine Friesland
Butter at the quay cannot be quoted over 82s. per cwt.,
and although the shippers of Irish are in general looking
for rather higher prices the last two or three days, the
market is in a very inanimate state, and where sales are
effected, a trifling decline in our quotations of this day
se'nnight in most instances should be submitted to The
trade are impressed with an idea (notwithstanding the
strong representations made from Ireland to the contrary)
that the make of Butter is that country to the present
time, as well as in this, has been abundant, and they
therefore see no inducement for entering into purchases at
present rates beyond their immediate wants; Carlow (as
to the repute of the shippers) we quote 755. a 78s. on
board, '76s. a '799. landed, Belfast 765. a 775. landed,
Waterford '72s. a '74a. on board, 735. a 765. landed,
Limerick 725. 6d. on board, '7ss. landed, Cork (as to the
assortment) '72s. a 73e. on board, 735. a 745. landed,
Dublin 68e. a 698. on board, 70s. a 71s. landed, Newry
685., Banbridge 695. a 705., and Sligo 705. on board for
this month's shipment. Some few sales of new singed
Bacon (light weights) are effecting by Waterford shippers
at 375. a 38s. on board for this month's shipment, yet
over 38a. cannot be obtained for late and small meat,
recently arrived; for the best description of the sizeable
stale singed Bacon lying at the wharfs 325. a 335. is a
fair quotation, and for the heavy 28s. a 305., but there
are several parcels to be purchased as l 6 as 20s. a 255.
per cwt. Bladder Lard Is in demand, and for Waterford
and Limerick of fine quality 555. a 565. is demanded, and
525. a 535. for Belfast. Bale Middles we quote 28s. a
31s; Belfast Tierce Middles 31s. a 365, Limerick 375. a
38s ; Belfast Hams as to weight and condition 445. a
545. Limerick of small size '72s. a '74 ; India Beef 61.
10s; India Pork Si. a 5/. 2s, 6d ; prime Mess Beef Si.
10s., second quality 41. 12e. 6d. a 5/; prime Mess Pork
31. 2s. 6d ; second quality 2/. 15s. a 21. 171. 6d.
Hors.-The late gales have done great damage to the
bines ; price, are considerably higher; the duty fallen to
155,000/.

OILS.—The Oil Market is firm at higher prices than
last week, and a good deal doing ; a parcel of South Sea
sold on Friday last at 231. up to 251. Sperm Oil has
advanced 21. to 41. per tun, owing to the loss of four ships
that were expected in this year, the highest paid price is
691., but it is difficult at the moment to quote a correct
price, holders not being disposed to name one. In Linseed
Oil considerable sales are making for all deliveries up to
March next ;on the spot Oil is scarce. Rape Oil in good
demand.

TURPENTINE.—A small lot was this week sold at
12s. 3d.

SiLic.—Ne alteration in prices since our last, but a
tendency to advance.

11.,ce there is no alteration worth reporting.

been steady, but without briskness; the purchases were
under 1,000 bags at steady prices. This day by public
sale 42 bls. Surat Cotton, fair quality 7d., 275 Ws.
Madras, good fine Bid. a 81-d., 8 bls. very clean 101141.
The sale went off well at full prices ; not much doing by
private contract, but the Market firm.
INDIGO.—Large transactions continue to take place in
this article chiefly of old sales at prices about 3d. advance
upon last sale. _ _

Lac DYE is much pressed upon the Market, but looking
