MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

MARKET INTELLIG :NCE.
(From the London New Price Current of May 16.)
SUGA.R.—To-day the market for raw Sugar presented
a more active appearance; supplies were limited, and an
advance in the value of all sorts transpired. In
West India Muscovado a good business was concluded
for both grocery and refining purposes, and the rates paid
were 6d per cwt above those of Friday. The purchases
amounted to 450 hhds &c., including a public sale of
145 hhds 12 tierces of Barbadoes, which went briskly
at an advance of 6d per cwt—fine yellow sold at 435,
g
good 41s to 42s 6d, middling 39s to 40s 6d, and low
36s 6d to 38s per cwt. The
market for Sugar closes
with much firmness.
REFINED.—Today Refined Goods met with less at-
tention for home consumption, but in prices we have no
variation to record, on account of the small supply. The
market for bonded sugar is firm at 27s to 28s per cwt.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon several purchases were
made privately, and 1,803 bags and 37 casks at auction
went 6d per cwt higher—middling and good yellow
realised 39s to 40s 6d, low to fine grey 37s to 40s, fine
brown 35s 6d to 365, good 34s 6d, middling 335, low 30s
to 315 6d, washed 30s to 335, and syrupy 28s to 38s 6d
per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon there was a brisker
demand for Bengal privately, and 2,200 bags at auction
went at 6d per cwt advance—middling white Be nares at
425, low 39s 6d to 40s, middling and good soft yellow
31es to 425, damp and washed 38s to 41s per CNA.
FOREI6N.—To-day there was no public sale of any
kind of Foreign Sugar; but privately, business to a fair
extent was concluded, and at rather better prices. If
holders had accepted former terms, large parcels would
have been sold. The home trade are yet the chief
operators.

MOLASSES.—The demand for all sorts of West India
has been active, and au advance in the value of is per
cwt is apparent; low to fino quality realises 16s to 203
per cwt. The market is less freely supplied, and on the
part of holders there is firmness.
CocoA.—This afternoon there was not much dispo-
sition manifested to make purchases in Bahia Cocoa, and
455 bags at auction were all taken in at 35s for sound,
and damaged 32s per cwt.
COFFEEa.—a afternoonaThtispubliesale 8

tention;n
rather higher rates; middling fetched 50s to 58s, low
middling 465, fine fine ordinary 40s to 43i 6d, fine ordi-
nary 36s to 393, good ordinary 32s to 335, ordinary
and triage 23s to 24s 6d, very ordinary 17s 6d
to 245. Plantation Ceylon is wanted, and 518
bags were sold at better prices—good went at 60s to
72s 6d, middling 48s to 51s, low to middling 43s to 451,
fine and fine fine ordinary 35s to 40s, ordinary and good
ordinary 25s to 325, damaged 27s to 31s 6d. Of Native
several parcels were sold privately; good and real good
ordinary realised 30s to 31s per cwt.
TEA.—The market has still an improving appearance
for all kinds of Tea, supplies are less plentiful, and
dealers in both town and country are more inclined to
increase their stocks. Duty was paid at this port on
531,900 lbs during the past week, whereas during that
time 20,000 pkgs were imported. In Congou a good
business has been concluded; all sorts must be con.
sidered a shade higher, common and good ordinary
sound realises 6id to lid per lb. Of Green many
parcels have been sold, and at full rates for
low and middling, whereas good and fine realized
stiffer prices. Pekoe Teas cannot be stated to have
risen in value, but there is a more active demand. Public
sales are announced to take place, but they are not of
much consequence. To-day there was not much passing
in the Tea market, but holders would not sell excepting
at fully former rates.
RICE.—To-day there was little passing privately in
any sort of East India Rice, and 2,424 bags Bengal at
auction were onlyinpnat at lOs

is little wanted, and 14s to 15s is the value. Tapioca is
dull of sale at 2id to 44d per lb. Of arrowroot the sup-
ply is yet exceeding the demand.
SPIRITS.—To-day higher rates were insisted upon for
all sorts of Rum, but not much business was concluded.
Proof Leewards are held for is 8d to is 9d, East India
Is 7d to is Bd, and Jamaica 30 to 38 per cent over
proof 3s 10d to 4s 6d per gallon.
Faurr.—Although there has been a large amount of
business concluded in Currants, yet prices have not ad-
vanced. At auction, 98 pkgs were sold. On the part
of holders there is firmness, and the stock continues on
the decrease, whilst the deliveries are getting larger.
Raisins are much in request for home consumption, and
prices are on the advance; the stock is also on the de-
crease. On the part of holders there is much firmness.
SALTPETRE.—To-day there was more activity in the
market for rough, and the parcels sold privately were at
6d per cwt advance. At public sale 921 bags of Cal-
cutta found buyers—middling dingy grey 7 per cent
refraction fetched 325, 54 ditto 32s 6d, and not refracted
31s to 31s 6EI.

COCHINEAL.—This afternoon there was no improve-
ment in the position of the market for Cochineal. At
public sale 38 bags of Honduras silvers were only in
part sold.
Ou.s.—This afternoon Linseed Oil met with attention,
and the price declined to 23s per cwt on the spot. Seal
is cheaper, and 251 10s accepted for pale. For Olive
prices are lower; Galipoli selling at 441 to 451, and other
sorts 401 to 431 per tun.
TALLow.—On the spot Russian is offered at a further
reduction, yet the purchases made have been trivial, and
46s 6d to 46s 9d are the rates taken for fine P. Y. Candle,
at which merchants appear willing sellers. For for-
ward delivery there has been little passing, and
sales can be made at 45s for the last three
months of the year. Although home made can
be obtained at the reduced rates of 46s to 47s nett cash,
yet on the part of the trade little desire is shown to
operate, and the supply is plentiful. Other sorts of
Tallow are further depressed in value. At public sale
178 casks of French were in part sold.
