The average price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, the pro-

MARKET- INTELLIGENCE.
(From the Landon New Price current of June 12.)
SUGAR. —To-day there was a fair buSiness transacted in
West India Sugar, and the rates paid were 6d per cwt above
those of this day week for Refining sorts, and in several cases
yellow kinds brought prices rather above those of that tima.
REFINED.-- i 0-day Reined Goods were much sought after
by the home trade, but few parcels are to be had. Brown
lumps are firm at 6'..5.t0 68s 6d. and standard lumps at 69s
per cwt. The market for bonded Crushed Sugar is firm,
33s 6d for first,quatity.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon there was no public sale, but
privately a fair business was done, and at prices shewiug a
small advance on those of the last auction.

EAST INDlA.—This afternoon Bengal Sugar was in good
request, and at public sale 2248 bags were all sold at full
rates.

FOREIGN.—YeIIow Havannah has been sought after, but
holders insisting on an advance on former rates of Is to 2s
per cwt, busines- of moment has been prevented, and the only
sale is that of 800 chests of low yellow quality at •21s per
cwt; had there been sellers at a slight advance on previous
prices, it would have led to large transictions. For white stiffer
rates are insisted upon, but there are few buyers at present
to be met with. There has been a good desire evinced to
operate in brown Brazil, but the stiff rates asked prevented
much business from being done; the few parcels of white dis-
posed of were at rather higher rates. There are not sellers
of Porto Rico excepting at improved prices.
Mot.A.ssms.—All kinds of India are much in demand, and
would command even further improved rates; but business
of moment has been prevented by the scanty supply at
market.

COFFEE,.—This afternoon there was no public sale of
Coffee, and privately little busi.less was transacted in any
kind, the value of good ordinary native pale Ceylon is 42s
to 43s per cwt.
Cocoa.-11 ith West India the market has been much bet-
ter supplied this week, and the demand having been limited,
prices have slightly given way. Foreign is Hot offered upon
lower terms, but there has been little business transacted at
present. There is, however, a less quantity offered for sale.
TEA.—The demand for black and green Tea has been con-
siderably checked by the announcement of the large quantity
of 40,000 pkgs for public sale on Tuesday, and former rates
are with difficulty to be obtained. There has been little
business transacted in any kind, as the trade seemao-think
that if merchants are sellers at the approaching sales, that a
decline in prices will take place, as the stock of black and
greew in the banded warehouses is large.
IticE.—To-day Bengal Rice was wanted, but rather higher
rates being asked, operated against business.
SricEs.—With Cassia Lignea the market has been abug-
dantly supplied this week, but merchants submitting to a
decline on lase nominal rates of Is to to 3s per cwt caused the
demand to be active. Cassia Buds have nearly sustained the
former value. Black Pepper is still purchased with caution by
exporters and the home trade notwithstanding the low rates,
:Of African and East India Ginger several parcels have been
disposed of privately, and at somewhat better prices; the
supply is still falling off. Jamaica has been in fair demand
at the previous currency—the middling kinds have been the
most in lequest privately. Pimento is wanted, and the par-
cels sold privately were at firm rates. Nutmegs have suf-
fered no further depression, and privately several parcels
have been sold at 2s 8d to 4s 2d for brown, and at Is ed to
3s firlimed. The supply is less than it was, especially of the
better kinds. Mace is wanted, but we have no farther ad-
vance to notice in prices. In Cinnamon little business has
been transacted, low as quotations are. Cloves are heavy of
disposal, notwithstanding the low rates that prevail.
FatnT.— In Currants lately there has been a large busi-
ness doing, and the deliveries for home consumptian great;
Cephalonia and Morea Fruit 464 Patras 46s to 47s per cwt;
a large parcel of the forunr taken on sp •culation, and an
offer for a cargo to arrive at the same price refused; the Low-
priced common descriptions of Raisins have been in 'more
reqvest—old Chesme Raisins, cases, 295, Valentias from 263
to 30s, new Chesine Raisins, barrels 335, cases 355.
Russ, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.— There has been a better
demand for all descriptions of Jamaica Rum this week, and
the rates paid have been hilly equal to those of last Friday ;
the quantity sold has been 150 puns. This afternoon at
public sale 38 casks of Madrae Ruin were sold at Is lid t.)
2s Id for proof to II per cent over-proof.
COCIHNEAL.—This afternoon Cochineal was in better re-
qUest, and 116 bags of Honduras were offered at auction, and
chiefly sold at full rates, viz., at 5s 7d to 63 Id per lb for low
to tine silvers.

SALTPETRE.—To-day the market was better supplied
with Rough the parcels offered at public sale amounting to
3,889 begs of Calcutta, there was a much better demand, and
the whole sold at full rates for the low and middling sorts,
whilst the better kinds brought 6d per cwt advance.
Ores.—This afternoon Southern Oil went at lower rates,
but at auction one hundred tuns were nearly all sold. Fine
Foreign was taken in at 281. Sperm is cheaper, and 45 tuns.
at public sale only in part sold at 771 to to 771 15s for bright

very good, and this is

cheaper than Russian. For Australian the demand has only
nceasbheh thelg
been for small parcels, and holders experience difficulty in
getting 37s to 42s for low to tine quality. American is little
wanted. Russian on the spot has been purchased with much
caution, but in the value little variation at present has taken
place. For forward delivery there are few buyers to be met
with.
