MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London Nero Price Current of March 3.)
SUGAR.—To day there was more activity in the market for
West India Muscovado Sugar; considering the small and
indifferent show, a fair busines was transacted in brown,
grey, and yellow sort, at prices equal to those of Friday.
EFIN ED.—To-day several pnrchases were made in Refined
Goods by the home trade, but no improvement in the velue
took place. Prices further advanced for Bonded Crushed
Sugar.

MAuntrirs.—This afternoon there was more desire mani-
fested to purchase Mauritius. and two parcels at public sale
amounting to 8,825 bags, 91 casks, and 148 barrels were
sold at pricer that averaged those of the last auctions.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal Sugar was purchased
with more freedom, and 1,205 bags at auction were sold at
steady rates.

I OREIGN.—To- dqy there was no public sale of Foreign
Sugar, and privately there was little business transacted in
any kind. The Ductli Company's public sale of 40,000
baskets has gone off heavily at a fall in prices of 2s to 5s
per cwt.
COFFEE.—To-day there was no public sale of any kind of
Coffee, and the demand privately was limited for all sorts.
Ceylon of good ordinary Native is not to be obtained under
46s per cwt.
Tica.—To-day there was lees business transacted in Tea, but
holders were firm, and common seuud Congou for cash was not
to be obtained under 9d, low Twankay is. Id. and common
Hyson Is. I Id. per lb.
SPIRITS.—The principal feature in the Rum market since
this day week has been that of the Government contract for
100,000 gallons, half East and half West India, and the whole
has been taken by Messrs. Ruck, Son, and Fenwick, a frac •
tion under Is. 9d. per gallon proof strength, but the exact
price is kept a secret ; the contract has decidedly been taken
low, and will scarcely pay the contractor. East India is held
for the previous eurrency, but there has been only a limited
business transacted. Leeward Islands is not offered upon
lower terms, but the demand has been only for small parcels.
Demerara is not offered at any further decline.
Jamaica is not offered upon lower terms, but there has been
little business transacted. Brandy has been purchased with
caution, and several parcels having arrived merchants have
been more inclined to realize, and submitted to lower rates
for all descriptions. Geneva is held with firmness, and is
wanted. For British Corn Spirits the price is still 10s 6d per
gallon net cash, but the demand is still limited. Gin is held
for 8s 10d for 22 per cent under proof, and 17 under 9s 4d per
gallon ; but the demand has been limited.
Hoes.—There are few purchasers of the low and middling
de cr:ptions, but prices do not give way, the supply at market
continuing to be moderate.
SPICES.—The demand has fallen off for Nutmegs, and the
• market having been much better supplied a slight decline in
the value has taken place. Holders of Mace are not inclined
to further reduce their prices. Prices keep firm for Pimento,
but the demand privately has been only for small parcels.
TALLOW.—Prices at present cannot be quoted lower for
Russian on the spot, as the stock is small, bet the town and
country demsnd has been limited for all descriptions. Home
made is in better supply. For other sorts of Tallow the de-
mand has fallen off.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.
(THIS EVENING.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.

The Earl of SEA FTESBC AY took his seat on the Woolsack
at Five o'clock.

RAILWAY SURVEYING.

Lord PORTMAN presented a petition from a magistrate in
the West Riding of Yorkshire, complaining of the aggressions
which were made:by projectors of railways, whose surveyors, not
contented with takings levels, cut down ornamental timber,
and in fact took upon themselves all the powers given by
Parliament to the Ordnance and Geological surveyors. The
petitioner begged to suggest to their Lordships, that as parties
poaching were liable to transportation, so individuals tresspass-
ing in an illegal manner should be equally liable to the same
punishment. He ( Lord Portman) might not go that length,
but he certainly thought that the subject was worthy the atten-
tion of the railway committees, and should this be out of their
province he thought their power ought to be extended.
the petitioners prayed that the House would take measures to
reform this abuse.
