MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of October 20.)
SUGAII.—To-day the market presented a firm appearance
for all kinds of Raw Sugar available for home consumption,
the trade being inclined to get further supplied, in conse-
quence of a report gaining ground that sugar is to be allowed
to be used without restriction in the distilleries and brew-
eries. There was a good desire evinced to operate in all
kinds of West India Muscovado for refining and grocery
purposes, but merchants insisting on an advance on the rates
of Friday of 6d, tended to operate against business.
REFINED.—To-day refined goods were largely dealt in by
the home trade, and further advanced rates were paid—
indeed, the supply at market is nearly exhausted. Brown
grocery lumps fetched 63s 6d to 645, and standard lumps 65s
to 65s 6d. Bonded Crushed Sugar can be easily obtained at
33s for first quality, but to-day verylittle business was done.
MAunvrius.—All descriptions have been in increased re-
q9est, and although the market has been much better sup-
plied, still holders in some cases have succeeded in obtaining
stiffer rates fur the parcels disposed of privately. 6,402 bags
atublic sale were all sold.
FAST INDIA.—This afternoon there were six public sales
of Bengal Sugar, consisting of 5,175 bags; the trade were
desirous to operate, and nearly the whole sold at full rates,
indeed the better kinds with grain in some cases went 6d per
cwt. dearer.

FOREIGN.—The home demand has fallen off for all kinds
of Havannah Sugar, and a decline in the value of 6d to is
per cwt. has taken place, the market having been more freely
supplied. Privately there has been little passing, and at
auction a part only of 1,610 chests and 50 hhds of yellow found
buyers. Brazil is offered upon rather lower terms, but little
business has been done privately in any kind, and at public
sale 91 chests of Bahia only partly found buyers at easier
rates. Porto Rico is less wanted, and a fall in the value of
6d per cwt has occurred for good and fine yellow, and is per
cwt for all inferior and brown kinds, but 380 hhds and 150
barrels at auction were all sold. Foreign Sugar for exporta-
tion has been sparingly dealt it, but holders are not inclined
• to submit to any further decline in prices.
COFFEE.—This afternoon Singapore Java met with little
attention, and 7,766 bags at auction, nearly all taken in at
moderate rates—ordinary brownish at 30s, low ordinary
brown 28s 6d ; the part sold went at 31s to 32s for good
ordinary yellowish, 28s to 31s for sea damaged first
class, 26s to 29s 6d for second and third class,
being rather under former rates. Of other kinds
none were offered at public sale. Ceylon met with
attention privately, and the parcels sold were at stiffer rates,
and fetched 38s 6d to 39s for good ordinary pale native.
Several public sales are declared.
TEA.—To-day the market bad a quiet appearance. 844
packages Assam were offered at public sale, and the whole
sold in consequence of moderate rates being taken ; Robes
only fetching sid to 10id, Congou B+l to Is 2fd, Souchong
Is 4d to Is I Id. Pekoe is lOid to 2s 9d. Of 1,648 pckages
from China, only 583 sold, and consisted nearly all of catty
boxes of Congou with all faults, and fetched Is to is 9 d;
sound Congou in half chests was taken in at 9d. Privately
there is little business transacted in Black er Green, moderate
as prices are. The quantity upon which duty was paid at
this port amounted to 561,6001bs during the past week.
SPlCES.—Jamaica Ginger has been in excellent request,
but prices have been prevented from further advancing in
consequence of the market having been well supplied; the
parcels offered at auction were all sold, and amounted to 538
packages. Of Calicut 500 cases at auction were withdrawn,
but 378 cases 488 bags and pockets sold at stiff rates. Cassia
Lignea has been in good demand privately, and previous im-
proved rates are well sustained, the supply at market being
small. Pimento has been purchased with avidity, and previous
improved rates are fully supported. For Nutmegs a good de-
mand has existed, and rather higher rates have been paid
privately for all kinds. Mace is wanted, but higher prices
being insisted upon, only small parcels have been sold.
Although Black Pepper can be obtained upon rather
lower • terms, still exporters and the home trade have
operated with caution privately in all kinds. White
Pepper is little wanted, and can be obtained upon easier
rates. For Pod Pepper the demand has been brisker, and
prices are firmer, the supply being less than it was. Cinna-
mon has not been so _ much in demand, but former rates are
insisted upon. _ _

SPIRITS.—In Jamaica Rum there has been a good business
transacted by exporters and the home trade, prices are look-
ing up, and the quantity sold since this day week has been
400 puns common and middling, 30 to 36 per cent. over
proof, at 3s 3d to 3s 6d, good 3s 8d to 3s 10d ; fine, 34 to 36
over, 4s 2d to 4s 6d, and very superior 4s 8d to 4s led per gallon.
Leeward Island has met with less attention, but holders are
firm. In Calcutta a good business has been transacted, and
holders manife-t firmness. In Demerara a fair business has been
transacted. Brandy has been in brisk request. Geneva has
been in excellent request for exportation, and prices further
advanced, common selling at 2s 8d to 2s 9d; fine has been in
request for home consumption at 3s to 3s 3d. For Corn
Spirits the demand is as brisk as ever, and prices are very
firm; the distillers have more orders on hand than they
will be able to execute for some time. In English Gin a
large business has been transacted.
Faurr.—New Valencia Raisins have been much sought
after at 45s to 465, but none to be had out of first hand.
Turkey Figs have been in excellent request. Of Currants
there are none in the market at present. In Muscatels a
good deal has been done. Red Smyrna Raisins are wanted,
the stock being nearly exhausted.
Hors.—Although there are sellers of all descriptions upon
further reduced terms, still only a limited business has been
transacted, the large quantities that are: yet brought to
market causing the trade to operate with caution. The
duty for the kingdom is estimated at 220,0001.

Cocntriza.L.To-day the demand was good, and at public
sale 108 bags of Honduras were all sold at rather higher
rates, and went at 4s. 4d. to 5s 3d for very ord to good silvers..
INDIGO.—The October public sale, which commenced on
the 6th instant, has terminated. The quantity declared for
sale was 21,393 chests, of which 795 lots were not printed,
leaving 20,598 chests for sale. We do not remember so small
an attendance of foreign and homebuyers, and so uneven and
fiat a sale; this is not, however, to be wondered at, when we
look at the enormous quantity declared, which threw a sort
of panic amongst the general class of buyers, and nullified
the effect which the late advices from Calcutta, representing
the crop as not likely to exceed 90,000 maunds, would have
had under ordinary circumstances.
Ons.—The market has a firm appearance for Seal Oil.
there having been a large business transacted, and the rates
paid have been fully equal to those on this day week. Cod
has been purchased with more freedom, and holders have
succeeded in obtaining better prices, although arrivals are
on the increase, and 271 have been given for several par-
cels. Southern has been in excellent request, chiefly
by the home trade, and the quantities disposed of privately
were at prices rather above those previously current; the
quantity brought forward has been again to a moderate ex-
tent only. Sperm has met with increased attention, and the
parcels sold by private contract were at an advance on pre-
vious rates. The arrival of Fish Oils have been to a fair ex-
tent since this day week, but the deliveries are going on
largely, and greater than last season. Although Linseed Oil
can again be obtained upon lower terms, still the home
trade have operated with caution on the spot, large as the
consumption is, and moderate as prices are, but there
is a large quantity being produced, and the crushers are in-
clined to realise at 24s to 24s 6d per cwt ; the shipping orders
are still falling off, and have become trifling. Rape Seed Oil
is at present not much wanted, and prices are easier. Palm
has been in excellent request, and the tendency of prices is
upwards. There has been a good business transacted in Cocoa,
Nut Oil, and owning to small supply, quotations are look-
ing up.
TALLOW.—Russian on the spot has been purchased with
eagerness by soap-makers and chandlers; the arrivals conti-
nuing to be small and much less than they were last year, a
further advance in prices has taken place, fine new P.Y.C.
curreutly bringing 48s Gd per cwt, and at which high rates
there are not free sellers, owing to the small stock, and the
quantity to arrive being much less than last season. For
forward delivery the operations have been upon a large scale,
at advanced rates. Home made is much wanted, and the
supply being insufficient for the demand a further advance
in prices has taken place. All other sorts have been in ex-
cellent request privately, and prices are yet on the advance.
