COLONIAL.
The markets are closed until the sth January next.

(From the London New Price Current of December 29.);
SUGAIL.—The business transacted in all descriptions of
West India Sugar was extremely limited by retiners and
grocers, on Wednesday and Thursday, the quantity disposed
of amounting to only 440 hhds and trcs but holders evinced
firmness, and obtained previous prices for all sorts. The ar-
rivals of Raw Sugar have not been of much moment since
this day week, but the deliveries continue satisfactory, and
prices are lower than they were in 1845; in the stock, how-
, ever, there is little difference.
REFINED.—To-day several purchases were made in Re-
fined Goods by the home trade, and at firm rates, standard
lumps selling at 655, and brown grocery lumps at 64s per cwt.
For Bonded Crushed Sugar the market is firm, and there are
several buyers.
MAURITIUS.—Prices have not improved, but there hag
been a fair business transacted by private treaty, and the
rates paid are equal to those previously current; the better
qualities of yellow and grey meeting with the most attention.
EAST INDIA.—The rates previously established are sus-
tained for all kinds of Bengal Sugar ; but the amount of
business done privately has been to a small extent only, and
none has been offered at public sale. Madras, however, has
met with attention, and several parcels have been taken;
but holders are inclined to sell at previous rates. For Ceylon
and Penang former prices have been taken for small parcels.
FOREIGN.-To-day Foreign Sugar met with little attention,
and the only transaction worth reporting, is that of 200 cases
of brown Bahia for exportation at 21s per cwt, being about
the former value; at this rate, however, holders are inclined
to realise.
COFFEE.—Holders manifest more firmness, and have re-
frained from offering any at public sale. The market has an
improving appearance, a fair amount of business haling been
transacted by private treaty, and the rates paid are rather
above those previously current; indeed, of middling and
good middling sorts the supply is far from ample for the
demand.
COCOA.—The low and middling qualities of West India
have met with a dull sale, and for such prices tend down-
wards, the stock being large, but good and fine are wanted,
and the parcels sold privately brought very full rates, the
supply being small. For Foreign late rates are asked ; but
little business has been done.
SPIRITS.—.East India rum has been in good request, and
the parcels sold are at stiffer rates. In Leeward Island
several sales have been made, and the supply being
small, prices rule firm. Demerara of strong quality
has been sought after, and a fair business has been
done. Jamaica is held with firmness, and there
is but a moderate quantity of any kind on offer ; a good busi-
ness has been done, and at fully late rates. Brandy is dull
of sale, and can be had upon rather lower terms. Geneva
has met with little attention for exportation. At London and
Liverpool duty has been paid on 20,015 gallons this year.
British Corn Spirits have been in lively demand ; English at
lls 3d nett cash, Scotch and Irish lis2d to lls 3d. Gin 17
per cent under proof at lOs 3d, and 22 per cent under proof at
9a 9d per gallon.
SPlCES.—Holders of Black Pepper evince firmness, and
offer only a limited quantity for sale; a fair demand exists
privately for all sorts. White met with a fair sale at 3d to
Pimento is wanted, but little is to be had, and 4d to

4id is the value. For Nutmegs the market has a quiet ap.
pearance, and former rates are not to be obtained. Mace is no'

cheaper, but the demand has fallen off. Cassia Lignea met
with little attention, and is offered upon easier terms.
COCHINEAL.—To-day there was an increased desire
evinced to purchase all descriptions ; a good business was
transacted by private treaty, and the rates paid were Id to
2d above those of the last public sales.
TEA. —Congou of the low and middling descriptions is
little wanted, and there are sellers even rather under previous
rates ; these sorts are now actually as cheap as they were
prior to the agitation relative to the duty ; for good and fine
former quotations are insisted upon, but, they have been
sparingly dealt in by the town and country trade. There is
now no speculative demand for any description.
INDlGO.—Purchases to a fair extent have been made in all
sorts of East India, and at prices showing an advance on
those of the last quarterly sales of 2d to 4d per lb; holders
are sanguine in their expectations as to the future position of
the article, and offer 0111 Y a trifling quantity for sale. For
Spanish a fair demand exists, and prices are looking up, the
supply being small.
RlCE.—There has been a good business transacted in Ben-
galla7nsd
to supply
2os
by private treaty during the last few days; holders mani-
fest
the market sparingly; the
rates
mon and middling sorts are still in the most request. Madras
mpuaci much
havefi firmness, and
is wanted at 15s 6d to 17s per cwt, but there is little on offer.
Of Java the market is still without a supply—there are se-
veral buyers, and at stiff rates.
FRUIT. —Prices continue steady; the sales effected have
been limited. Currants remain steady at 54s to 565; further
sales are reported in Cephalonia for Holland at 555. Valencia
Raisins are unaltered, viz. 44s to 46s for good and finest qua-
lities. No further arrivals of Fit, s, and the quotations re-
main unaltered, although holders are demanding rather
higker rates; other kinds of Turkey fruit are quiet, and we
have not heard of any business worth reporting Sultana
raisins fully support the recent advanced price of 755.
Oins.—Prices are prevented from improving for Linseed
Oil by the large supply, but the home trade have been in-
duced to operate with more freedom, and on the spot a fair
quantity has been taken by them at 25s Pd per cwt, but the
crushers are desirous to sell thereat as they are getting good
profits. For exportation few buyers are to be met with.
The demand for forward delivery has been limited, although
there are sellers at 26s per cwt. The consumption continues
to be as large as ever in this country, and on the Continent
it is on the increase—prices vary little from those of this
time last year. Rapeseed Oil met with a brisk demand,
and an advance in the value took place. Olive Oil has been
largely dealt in, and an advance in the value took place.
Cocoa Nut is much in request, and owing to the small sup-
ply buyers are compelled to pay stiffer rates. In Palm large
purchases have been made, and prices have advanced.
The stock of Fish Oil has further decreased, arrivals conti-
nuing small, whereas the deliveries are going on largely, and
a further improvement in the value took place. None has
again been offered at auction, and privately the quantity on
offer is less than it was of all descriptions. Cod met with
ready purchasers, and prices have improved to 271 108 to 28/
per tun, but for arrival there are sellers rather under these
rates. In Seal a good business has been done, and a further
improvement in the value occurred.

TALLOW.—No further advance has taken place in Russian
on the spot, although the demand has been good. For fine
Petersburgh yellow Candle 51s to 51s 3d per cwt are the
rates accepted. For spring months Ms 6d to 51s 9d are re-
quired, but only a moderate business has been transacted.
Home made met wit! ready purchasers at 51s to 51s 6d nett
cash. All other sorts of Tallow have been in excellent re-
quest at the previous currency.

AQUATICS.— During the past aquatic season there
wee e sixty five sailing matches, one hundred and thirty-
three rowing matches, and seventy-two regattas.
SINGULAR DEATIL—The death of a young woman
was lately occasioned in a somewhat curious manner,
near Charleroy. Two dogs were fighting near the mouth
of a coal-mine, in the vicinity of that town, when, in
their struggles, they approached the brink of the pit and
rolled over, to the great mirth of the spectators of the
combat. Lamplitab!(- emit-, r.
