MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current of September 11.)
SUGAR.—To-day importers of all descriptions of Colonial
Sugar displayed more firmness, and generally the home trade
were more desirous to operate. A fair demand existed for
West India, the quantity sold amounting to 400 hhds and
trcs by private treaty, and the rates paid were equal to those
previously current. At auction 10 hhds of Jamaica sold at
49s for good yellow.
FOREIGN.—This afternoon few purchases were made pri-
vately in Foreign Sugar. At auction 381 baskets 63 bags of
Java were only in part sold at about the former value,
fine strong yellow at 54s to 565, good 49s to 50s, middling
46s to 478, low 44s 6d,, middling grey 47s to 48s, damp and
washed 46s to 52s per cwt.
REFlNED.—Further reduced rates having been submitted
to for all descriptions of Refined Sugar, have tempted the
home trade to come forward more freely, and a good business
has been transacted. Pieces still find willing buyers, but the
refiners are desirous to sell. Bastards are heavy of disposal,
and the refiners are desirous to reduce their heavy stocks.
Treacle at present cannot be had on lower terms, the demand
being active for all descriptions. The value of Treacle is 14s
to 14s 6d, but there has not been much business done.
Dutch Crushed Sugar is little wanted. Loaves made here
under bond have not improved, though a good business was
done, and supply not large.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon the quantity of Mauritius
Sugar offered at auction was large, and amounted to 7,847
bags. Merchants, however, were firm, and insisted upon
former rates for all kinds, at which the chief part of the Su-
gar was sold at and after the sale.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Bengal Sugar
offered at public sale amounted to 4,621 bags ; the demand
was good, and the whole sold at full rates.
COFFRE.—This afternoon 848 bags of Ceylon Coffee were
offered at public sale, the Native of which sold at previous
moderate rates, viz. good ord yellowish at 40s, and sea da-
maged 27s to 38s 6d; but the Plantation only partly found
buyers. 26 bls of Mocha sold at 64s 6d for pea berry, 28s
Gd for broken, and 27s 6d to 40s 6d for sea damaged. 641
bags of Sumatra went at 22s 6d to 23s for ord brown mixed
with blacks, and one lot 225. 28 casks of Jatnalea sold at
37s to 44s for good to fine ord mixed. 169 barrels of Rio
went at full worth.

RICE.—No further advance has taken place in the value of
Bengal, but the demand has been brisker, and the, rates paid
have been equal to those of this day week; several parcels,
in all 7,000 bags, were sold privately for home consumption
and exportation at 18s to 20s for low to fine white, and cargo
15s to 16s 6d. Holders haveconfidence, and supply the market
sparingly; only 2,825 bags having been offered at auction, and
which went at 19s to 19s 6d for good middling and good
white, 18s 6d to 20s for middling, and 12s to 18s for
damaged. Of Java there is none in the market, it is wanted,
and would command stiff rates. There are several buyers of
Madras at 14s 6d to 16s, but the supply is nearly exhausted.
Cleaned Rice has met with ready purchasers. There are se-
veral orders unexecuted for all kinds of Rice : the stock ex-
ceeds that of last year.
SPICES.—This afternoon the public sales of Nutmegs,
consisting of 16 chests, went at full rates. Mace is yet
wanted, and 11 chests sold at stiff rates. Of Cloves 21
chests fetched 2s to 2s ld for good bright Bencoolen, and
one lot of very fine 2s 6d. 537 bags Penang Pepper sold
at 2id for good light brown earthy and dusty, and lid to
2id for damaged; 108 barrels and 6 pkgs Jamaica Ginger
sold at 42s to 49s for mid to good mid quality.
COCTILNEAL.—This afternoon 266 bags of: Honduras
Cochineal at auction were nearly all sold—silvers at 4s 7d to
5s 10d for low to fine, and mid to good black 5s 9d to 6s 3d,
being full rates for the better sorts, but ld per lb lower for
Common.

Sruirrs.--There has been a brisker demand for good and
fine descriptions of Jamaica Rum this week, and full rates
have been paid, the quantity sold being 150 puns. Holders
of Leeward Island are reluctant to lower their prices, hut
the market has a dull appearance. Demerara has been
sparingly dealt in, but 3s 2d to 3s 5d are the rates insisted
upon for strong sorts. Calcutta is wanted, but prices are
firm at is lld to 2s proof with certificate. Brandy has
been in excellent demand, and holders display firmness, the
home trade are still the chief operators. The deliveries here
continue to increase, and the stock diminishing. Geneva
has been in increased request for export, and prices have
risen to 2s 4d to 2s sd. British Corn Spirits have been in
excellent request, and the market has a firm appearance.
English Gin 22 per cent. under proof at 8s 10d, and 17 under
9s 4d.

Oils.—Southern Oil has been in excellent request by pri-
vate treaty, and, in consequence of the falling off in the
supply at market, a further improvement in the value has
taken place for all descriptions; low to mid quality bringing
231 108 to 241 15s, and good to fine 251 to 26/ per tun. For
Cod, prices remain at 27/10s to 281, but only small pur-
chases have been made. Holders of Seal have confidence,
and supply the market sparingly with all descriptions.
Sperm is still plentiful ; but the demand has been limited,
and holders experience difficulty in obtaining 771 to 79/ for
good quality, and 731. to 761. for low to mid
For Rape Oil prices remain much the same.
Linseed Oil has been in extensive demand by the home trade
and a further improvement in the value has taken place
24s 93 to 25s per cwt having been currently paid on the
spot. For forward delivery a good business has been trans-
acted, and at improved rates. Cocoa Nut has been much in
request, and the market has been nearly cleared at advanced
rates. For Olive the demand has been very good for all de-
scriptions, and the tendency of prices is yet upwards.
Tarnow.—prices rule firm for Russian on the spot, and
the demand has been active from the town and country trade,
fine new Petersburgh yellow Candle bringing 42s 6d, and old
42a per cwt. For forward delivery many purchaser} have
