MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the 'London New Price Cu
off in therrentofhome
Feb.. 8.)
SecAn.—To-day there was afalling
as well as export demand for Raw Sugar, mer- k
chants ware more inclined to sell, and the market was
better supplied, and for all descriptions prices in
consequence suffered a decline. The purchases made
in West India Muscovado were limited for both the
scale and refining purposes, although the rates taken
were Gd per cwt. under those of Friday for all kinds.
The quantity sold amounted to only 200 hhds, &c., in-
cluding a public sale of 124. hhds of Barbadoes which
went off heavily at a fall on former quotations of 6d to
Is per cwt.; fine yellow went at 43s to 44s Gd, good
middling and good 41s 6d to 42s Gd, and middling 40s 6(1
to 41s per cwt. The Raw Sugar Market closes with a
dull aspect.
REFINED.—To-day there was little pa;sing in Re-
fined goods for home use ; the supply is larger, and
prices are on the decline. We quote brown grocery
lumps at 54s Gd, and standard lumps at 54s 6d, and
standard 55s to 55s Gd. For Bonded Crushed Sugar
there is less inquiry, and prices are not so firm, fine sort
selling at 29s to 30s per cwt.

rates are generally supported.

Green extensive purchases have been made. *This
afternoon several parcels of Tea ware disposed of, and

by private, but no improvement in the value is observ-
able, although the supply is less plentiful. The parcels
