(From the London Mercantile Journal of August 31.)
StraAn.7--The market for West India Muscovado
Sugar has become very heavy, and even at further re-
duced prices the buyers cannot be induced to purchase
except from actual want. The demand has been very
limited, and almost confined to the grocery descriptions,
the refiners, from the dull state of their trade, having
paid very little attention to the raw material ; and
altogether a very small amount of business has been
done, and a further reduction of is to is 6d per cwt is
established on all descriptions, except the good bright.
grocery sorts, the supply of which being still compara-
tively small, causes them to be better supported than
the lower kinds, and they have not declined more than
6cl to is per cwt ; still, upon the whole, prices have
ringed very uneven, and the tendency of the market is
decidedly downward, the trade being much influenced
by the heavy stocks on hand, while the deliveries do not
equal those of former years at this particular period.
Privately Jamaica good strong greyish brown for the pan
sold at 58s Gd to • 59s 6d, low mid yellow at 60s to 61s,
and mid to good grocery sorts, from the different Co-
lonies, at 61s 6(l' to 65s ; of a better quality there are
few samples to be seen. • - -
The demand for West India Muscovado Sugar con-
tinued very limited to-day, and the sales did not exceed
200 hhds and tree, at prices if anything rather in favour
of the buyerS.
:MAURITIUS.—The demand continues very limited, and
prices are still drooping : 6,447 bags 58 casks were
brought to the hammer and disposed of, but without
the least spirit, and prices ruled very irregularly ; the
Insult, however, is that brown and low yellow sorts
are Is to is ed lower than last week, while the better
qualities, of which the proportion was small, have sup-
ported previous rates ; fine bright yellow 63s to 655,
good bright yellow 60s to 62s 6d, good middling bright
yellow 56s 6d to 58s 6d, low soft and middling yellow
ps to 4q5; fine brown scls to 51s 6d, middling foxy
4411 R 47S to 4?s 6d, and very low brown 38s to 39s
per cwt. _

REFINED.- —The prices of grocery goods arc still ra-
pidly declining, and the market is in a very unsettled
State, with few buyers. Sales made in standard lamps
it 80s, and in common brown lumps at 77s to 788 per
()wt., The prices of refined goods have been compara-
tively much too high for some time past. Double
crushed refined from Foreign Sugar in demand at 30s
percc%t._

EAST INDIA.—Tho demand for Foreign East descrip-
tions continues liraited,,and the market being more freely
supplied with Manilla, a reduction of 6d per cwt
leas
taken place on that description ; while Siam and Java,
especially _the strong qualities of the latter, maintain
previous rates, and the quantity offerinr, is small. Of
Manilla 7,669 bags have been offered by public
auction ; there was no animation
the biddings, and
about two-thirds only of that quantity were s-.)ld, con-
sisting.ebiefly of the low and washed piles ;
very good
grey sold at 18s to 19s, low brown at 14s to 14s 6d,
damp ditto at 13s 6d to. 14s, and
washed low yellow at
16s Gd to 17s ; middling soft yellow bought in at 18s,
good dry foxy brown at 17s to 17s Gd, damp ditto at 16s
to 16s 6d, and low damp foxy brown at 14s Gd per cwt.
Privately about 2,000 bags have been sold at 17s to
18s for low and middling yellow.
FoßElGN,—Brazil—the • enquiry is almost exclusively
confined to the strong brown and grey sorts, chiefly for
refining. Bahia—good middling strong greyish white at
24s to 255, middling ditto at 23s to 23s fid, low greyish
white at 21s to 22s Gd, good strong grewish brown at
18s 6d to 19s 6d, and low brown at 16s to 17s per cwt.
MOLASSES.—There has been little business done in
West India, and prices are a shade easier; a small parcel
new St Vincents of good quality sold at 24s 6d, and
about 50 puns of Old Antigua (imported five years ago)
of very inferior
quality at 17s. per cwt. A part of the

the previous value. •
For Foreign Coffee the inquiry is limited, but holders
arc firm, and the whole of the sound of 3,175 bags Rio
offered at public sale was bought in above the value at
40s for common yellowish, at 41s to 42s for common good
ordinary, and at 44s for good ordinary dingy colory ; the
demaged sold at 37s to 41s 6d.. for Ist and 2d class sea-
damaged, and at 356 to 36s 6d for 3d do. • •

Coco
The demand for West In I:a urts is limited,
a:_,l in 01.: tbsence of public sales ver lit.i le business has
hen done. Of Foreign a parcel of about 160 bags Para
has been 5.07(1 at 37s per cwt.
TEA.—The market remains in the same quiet state as
for some days past, neither the trade nor the merchants
being disposed to transact business until the arrival of
'the express from Paris,' in aNticipation of the over-land
mail, which is very anxiously looked for. Prices of
Free .Trade descriptions are merely nominal, scarcely a
transaction having occurred to-day ; but 2s Id cash ap-
pears to be the lowest point of the market for low Con-
gou of sound quality. A few transactions took place in
Company's Congou at about 2s 31-d per Ib, cash.
Smarrs.—The demand for Rim has been slack this
week, and few transactions have taken p'acc, but prices
are without variation. The sales are confined to about
100 puns Jamaica, 32 to 34 over at 5s 4d to 5s Bd, 36
to 38 over at 5s 8d to 5.5 10d,. 39 and upwards at Gs to
Gs 3d, with fine marks at 6s 8d to Os 10d, a few parcels
of Leewards, proof at 2s Id to 2s lid, and about 100
puns Calcutta, proof at Is 7d per gallon. Corn Spirits
in demand at is 4d per gallon. The Brandy market re-
mains firm, but there is little bnsiness doing in the ar-.
ticle. Geneva without Variation.
COTTON.—The market is flat, and few sales have been
made during the week. 2,000 bales Surat offered at
public sale were bought in at id to id per lb above the
market ; but about 700 bales sold subsequently at the
previous market prices, viz. 4id to 4d for middling fair
to good. The private transactions during the Nveek are
about 1,200 bales Surat, ordinary to good at 3d to 5d
and 200 bales Madras, fair to good at 4id to 4id per lb.
WOOL—The public sales of Colonial Wool are stilfl
in progress; and will occupy the greater part of this
week, owing to the unusually large quantity brought
forward. The attendance of buyers is as large as ever
remembered,• and the biddings are brisk at prices fully
supporting the currency of the last sales, indeed on some
kinds a slight a lvance is apparent. Nearly the whole
quantity offered up to this time has found buyers,
and the result thus far appears to have given general
satisfaction.

RICE.—The weather continuing favourable for harvest.
operations and the yield expected to turn out good, the
dulness before apparent has considerably increased and
prices are drooping ; sales are with difficulty effected
even at a reduction on last week's rates of 3d per cwt,
and small parcels only have changed hands privately,
while the only parcels brought to public sale consisting
of 3,900 bags 1,790 pockets Bengal, went off heavily, but
chiefly sold at Ils 6d to 13s for good middling to very.
good white. •
SALTPETRE.—The demand for Rough continues steady,
and prices are firmly maintained, with few parcels offering,
and some of the merchants are not inclined to sell at
present. We have not had a public sale this week, but
a fair business has been done privately.
INDIGO.—The demand for East India is still limited to
small lots, at about the rates of the April sales, except for
picked lots, which obtain a profit of 2d to 3d per lb. The,
next quarterly sales of Indigo are fixed for the 3d of
October. 11,900 chests are already advertised.
COCHINEAL.—The demand has rather improved, and
prices are a shade higher ; 57 bags Honduras, offered at.
public sale, sold briskly ; blacks ord to mid at 4s 6d to.
5s 2d, and silvers mid to good at 4s 2d to ss, and very-
ord at 3s 1 Id to 4d per lb,
PROVISIONS.—Irish butter is very dull of sale, awll
prices in some cases rather easier. Fine Carlow landed
is quoted at 93s to 95s ; Cork at 89s to 90s, and Water-
ford at *903 to 93s per cwt. Fine Dutch Butter is min
demand,' and in some .instances is rather higher, viz..
100 s to 102 s per cwt. The Bacon market is verb' dull,
and prime -fresh parcels only are 'saleable on former
terms, other qualities ls, to 2s lower ; Waterford sizeable
quoted at 60s to 645, heavy 61s to 635; Limerick sizeable
59s to tls, heavy 603 to 61s per cwt, landed: Lard*.,
fair demand at full prices.
METALS.—The only alteration in this market to-dap
is a slight improvement in Spanish Lead j 20/ lOs isl
obtained, and the demand is good.
NITRATE OF SODA.—This article is rather higher,
and some large transactions arc again reported ; 23s 9dl
obtained for large, and 2,1 s for small parcels.
TaLLow.—The market remains lvery quiet, without
any material variation in prices. Fine P.Y.C. on the
spot 49s to 49s 3d, and for delivery all the year 48s 9d to
49s per cwt. •

OlL.—Fish Oils quiet, but not lower. Linseed 011
in good demand, and large sales made both for present
and future delivery at 31s 9d to 32s per cwt. Rape Oil
also much wanted, and very firm in price ; 52s is now,
the nearest price for refined.

DEA FN ESS.—Sound Magnifiers, and Inyisib(e,
Operative Voice Conductors, to enable persons at an adianced
age, and of old standing extreme deafness, to join in general
conversation, and to catch the sound of a distant low speaker
at a public assembly; they are the size; of a very small gold
seven shilling piece, and when in the cavity of the ears, they
are not in the least perceptible nor more uncomfortable than
having a small piece of fine wool in its place ; they are composed
of a metal to collect sound, peculiar to the Messrs. S. and B:
Solomon, themselves ; and although they are so extremely smab
yet they enable those afflicted with extreme deafness, and
those who are only slightly dull of hearing to hear in every
respect equal to those of mast acute hearing. Messrs. S. and
B. Solomons, 39, Albemarie.street, Piccadilly, opposite the,
York Hotel, and 76, King William-street, City. Newly-Invented!
