MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of Nov. 7.)
SUGAR.—To-day a further falling off was observable
in the home and export demand for raw Sugar, whilst
most sorts suffered a farther depression, assupplies were
plentiful. West India was dealt in with caution for all
purposes, although the rates taken are rather under
those of Friday ; inferior and brown sorts are the
most difficult of disposal At a public sale of 165
hhds Barbadoes, which went off with dulness at prices
6d per cwt below those of Friday, fine yellow sold at 40s
to 41s, good 37s to 38s, low to middling 35s to 36s 6d
per cwt.. The total purchases to-day are only 490 hbdB
&c. For public sale on Thursday 669 chests of yellow
Ilavannah, and for Friday 60 hhda 245 brls Barbadoes,
and 200 bags Bengal Sugar are declared.
REFINED.—To-day prices ruled firm for Refined
Sugar, and a good trade was concluded for home use;
brown lumps realised 47s 6d to 48s, and Standard 48s 6d
to 495. Bonded Crushed Sugar is much in demand at
26s to 26s 6d; there is, however, only a limited supply.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon three parcels of Mauri-
tius Sugar were offered at public sale, and amounted to
8,720 bags. The trade operated with caution, and prices
declined 6d per cwt, but fine yellow fetched Lull rates;
the chief part sold—low yellow at 33s 6d to 345, mid-
dling 35s to 365, good 366 61 to 37s 6d, fine 388 to 40s,

EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the large quantity of
6,857 bags Madras Sugar was offered at public sale; the
demand was limited, and not above 1,000 bags found
buyers at a reduction of 6,1 to is per cwt; middling
damp yellow went at 31s, low 30s, line brown 295, good
28s 6d, very ordiiiary 255, the chief part was taken in at
from 29s to 31s 6d per cwt. Of Bengal there was no
public sale, and privately only small parcels were sold at
rather lower rates.
FOREIGN.—To-day there was no public sale, and pri-
vately only small parcels of Foreign Sugar were sold at
rather lower rates.

Cocos.—West India is little wanted, and prices still
tend downward:, as there is a fair stock, with only a
small consumption. The value of red is 38s to 435, arid
grey 35s to 39s per cwt, Foreign can be obtained upon
lower terms, yet little business has been done privately,
whilst the sound of 400 bags of Guayaquil was taken in
at 30s; damaged, however, sold at 25s 6d to 26s per
cwt; there is a large stock here.
COFFEE.—This afternoon the market was well sup-
plied with Plantation Ceylon Coffee, and the quantity
offered at public sale amounted to 136 casks 2,457 bags;
ft- _

there was a dull demand, and a part only sold,
but at full rates, fine_ 60s, good 52s to 555,
middling 44s to 495, low middling, 39s to 435, fine
fine ord 384 to 38s, other sorts 27s to 325, ord 24s to
265, triage 20s to 235, and damaged 17s 6d to 33s 6d.
Native met with attention, and 1,358 bags at auction
went at former rates, good ordinary pale 27s to 27s 6d,
ordinary 26s 6d. damaged 21s to 26s 6d. Of East India
434 bags were chiefly sold, Madras, fine fine ordinary
45s to 525, fine ordinary 355 to 41s, and damaged 26s to
51s per cwt. On Friday 350 bags of Native, and 100 bags
Plantation Ceylon Coffee will be offered at public sale.
TEA.-Itnporters of black are not disposed to make
any further concession in the value, yet the trade
operate with caution in all kinds, and a fair quantity is
on offer. Common Congou can be obtained at 7d, good
ord 7id to Bd, better sort 9,1 to Is 4d, Pekoe flavour
Is 5d to Is 10d, Pouchong 4d to 8d ; Souchong 8d to
Is Bd, and better sort is 9d to 2s 2d. With Green the mar-
ket is plentifully supplied, and prices tend downwards as the
trade operate with reluctance and merchants are wilingsel-
lers. Hyson of common Quality can be obtained at Is to
Is 2d, mid and good Is 3d to 2s, flue 2s 2d to 2s 10d,
superior 3s to 3s 6d. Young Hyson, low to mid, 6d to

however, operate with more readiness. The value of
Orange Pekoe of low and mid quality is 8d to Is, good
and fine scented Is 2d to 2s; Pekoe black leaf is to is 9d
per lb. None has been submitted to public sale since
this d,iy week, and none was i,,ported during that time.
ItscE -To-day East India Rice met with a brisker
demand: at public sale 3,000 bags Madras were all sold
at an advance on former rates of 3d per cwt; good pinky
white realised ,9s to 9s 6d, and damaged is to 9s. Of
Sago 200 bags were disposed of at 19s 6d to 20s per cwt.
SPIRITS,-Brandy is not cheaper, but there is less
activity in the market ; deliveries, however, comtinue
upon a large scale, and there is only a moderate stock.
The value cf Cognac best brands of the vintage of
1846 is 4s iod to 53, ditto 1847, 35 10d to 48, inferior

marks 3s to 3s 6d, and Bordeaux 2s 2d to 2s 6rl.
Geneva is little wanted, still holders ask 2s gd
to 3s 6d for home trade kind, and 2s to 2s id fOr
shipping sort. For British made Spirits there is a firm
market, and a good demand exists at 3s to 3s 3d proof
strength. To-day there was much dulness in the mar-
ket for West India Rum, and prices keep on the decline,
proof Leveards selling at Is 41 to Is 4id, East India
Is 3d to is 3 d, and Jamaica, middling quality, 32 per
cent over prod-, 35 per gallon.
SPICES.—Prices continue to advance for Pimento, as
the supply is small, and buyers are much in want of the
article. At public sale 78 bags sold at si-d for good,
and at 47--id to 5d for good middling quality. Cloves
have nut been much inquired after since our
last, and can be obtained upon rather lower terms.
At public sale 34 pkgs were for the most
part taken in. For Ginger the market has a dull as-
pect, and prices are on the decline for home trade sorts,
whilst shipping kinds realise full rates. Of 50 pkgs
Jamaica offered at public sale, a small part only sold.
Of Cassia Lignea we are still without a supply, and
prices in codsequence are nominal. Cassia Buds are
dull of sale at 681 to 70g. Of Pod Pepper, 91 bags at
auction were taken in at 60s to 75s per cwt for good
and fine. In Cinnamon, only a small amount of busi-
ness done, arid prices tend downwards, excepting for
good second sort of Ceylon, of which there is yet a
scanty supply. Black Pepper met with a dull demand
privatrly, and 1,363 bags at auction only in part sold at
barely former rates. Nutmegs are wanted, and 18 bxs
5 bags 1 brl went at an advance of 3d to 6d per lb.
Of Mace 10 cases were sold at full rates.
FRUIT.— An increased demand has been experienced
for Currants, and on the part of holders there is firm-
ness; new realizes 38s to 395, and old 32s to 355. Va-
lencia Raisins are in much better request, new at 37s
to 38s for prime quality. For Figs there is not much
demand, sellers are willing to accept 56s to 90s for
Turkey, and 70s to 75s for Sultanas. The rates paid
for new Imperial French Plums are 50s to 90s, and 95s
to 130 s for superior. New Prunes realize 253 to 265,
and Muscatel Raisins 42s to 70s.

SALTPETRE.—Rough has been in good demand by
private treaty this week, whilst the rates paid are fully
equal to those of Friday last, and a smaller quantity is on
otf,r. At auction 600 bags Calcutta found buyers ; mid
strong grey 6i per cent refraction at 24s 6d to 2.5 s per
cwt. Holders of Saltpetre appear to be sanguine in
their expectations as to the future position of the market.
Itinico.—This afternoon a public sale of 96 serons
Guatemala Indigo went at is 9d to 2s 7d, which are
barely market rates.

COCIIINEAL.—This aft. moon there was not a brisker
demand for Cochineal, and 137 bags Hoaduras at auc-
tion went at barely former rates, but the whole sold at
3s 4d to 4s for low to good silvers; 60 bags Mexican only
in part found purchases at 3s 4d to 3s 7d for silvers,
which are rather lower rates, whilst black was taken in
at 3s lld to 4s_per

TALLow.—There is firmness on the part of holders
of Russian on the spot, and a large amount of business
Las been concluded for both Soap and Candle-making
purposes. The rates paid have been 45s to 45s 3d per
hhd fine P.Y. Candle. For delivery up to the close of the
year, a good demand has been experienced at 44s 9d to
455, but for the early part of 1849 we have few sales
to report. Town Tallow has been in excellent demand
at 45s to 46s net cash, still the supply does not di-
minish. For other sorts former rates are well supported
as there is an increased demand, and not a large quan-
tity on offer. At auction 44 casks of New South Wales
were sold at 41s 6d to 44s 3d; 334 pps, and 60 hhds
South American 41s 3d to 44s 3d; 45 hhds of Galatz

angel 41s to 525, but 50 casks of Oessa were taken in
at 44s 3d per cwt. On Friday 400 casks, &c., of Tallow
will be offered at auction. The value of rough Fat is
2s 7d per stone of 81bs.

Om; —On Friday 100 tuns of Sperm, $0 ditto of
Southern, 50 Seal, 355 hhds of Cochin Cocoa Nut Oil
of fine quality will be submitted to public sale. Sperm
is much in demand and realised further advanced rates.
At auction 78 tuns of Colonial were sold at 7715 s tc
81/ 5s per tun, and by private treaty several purchases
have been made. Seal is not much required, and
there are sellers of pale at 261 102. At auction 11
tuns were sold. For Southern a brisker demand
exists, and stiffer rates are paid. Finest sort has been
selling at 261103 to 27/. At auction 10 tuns realized
23/ 5s to 26/ for low to good. Cod is offered at 231 103
to 231 15s, but few buyers are to be met with. Of Fish
Oils imports are upon a more extended scale, and prices
rule moderate. For Cocoa Nut Oil there is a dull market,
supply large. Rapeseed Oil has been dealt in with caution.
Lititeed Oil is offered at a further reduction, and Palm
is in good demand. For Olive there is much flatness in
the market, and a disposition is manifested to sell. Lard
Oil is quoted at 40s to 435, and Ground Nut at 32s to
33s per cwt, but few buyers are to be met with.

[AD VERTISEMEN T.] indigestion.—No medicine has
proved so efficient for the cure of indigestion and diseases
of the stomach as Woradell's Vegetable Reiterative Pills,
prepared by Joh❑ Kaye, Esq., of Dalton-hall, near Hud-
dersfield. All who have used them speak in the highest
terms of gratitude and praise as to their wonderful effi-
cacy. Mr. Charles Adams, farmer, of Cheddeston, near
Bungay, suffered from indigestion and extreme debility
for seven years, during which period he was attended by
two medical gentlemen. He was said to be is a consump-
tion, and no hopes were given of his recovery. He de-
termined, however, to give the Vegetable Restorative
Pills a fair trial. He experienced great relief from tak-
ing the first box; and, to his great surprise and comfort,
perseverance in the use of them restored him to perfect
health. Observe; John liaye's coat of arms and a fac-
simile of his signature are on the directions for use
wrapped round each box. Price ls. ltd., 2s. 9d., or
4s. 6:1. per box; to be had of all respectable Chemists
and Medicine Venders.
