MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of Oct. 10.)

SUGAR.—To-day the demand decreased for sugar for
all purposes, and a decline in the value of most sorts took
place. For West India Muscovado the market was in a
very dull state, and rather lower rates are taken. The
quantity sold was only 240 hhds, including at public
sale 150 hhds Barbadoes, which went 6d per cwt. lower;
fine yellow at 41s, good 393 to 40s, middling 36s to 87s,
and low 355 ad per cwt.
REFINED.—To-day refined goods met with little at-
tention for homo trade purposes, and prices fell to 49s
6d for brown grocery, and to 50s 6d per cwt for standard
lumps. Bonded crushed Sugar is in good demand at 26s
to 275. Of Loaves large parcels have been taken at 29s
6d to cOs for 9 and 1011 as Ramburgh.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon the quantity of Mauri-
tius Sugar offer at public sale was large, and amounted
to 8,901 bags, nearly the whole of which was taken in
at about the former value; middling to fine yellow at
36s 6d to 395. A small part sold—low and middling
yellow 34s 6d to 355, fine brown 33s 6d to 345, out
of condition 27s to 38s per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Bengal
Sugar offered at public sale was extensive, and amounted
to 10,000 bags, a small portion only of which sold at 6d
to is per cwt decline. --

FotiErGrr.—Previous rates are supported for foreign
Sugar, and there is a less quantity on offer. A good ex-
port demand since our last report, and the private
salcs are a cargo of white Havannah at 33a 6d, one of
low yellow at 17s, one of white Bahia at 19s, two of
brown at 168 to 17s, one of white Pernambuco at 19s
6d, and 600 chests of yellow Havannah at 22s to 245.
At auction 72 boxes of Havannah wer sold ; 780 pkges
of Bahia were for the most part taken in.
Twa.—None has been offered at public sale ; there is,
however, a large amount on offer by private treaty. For
Black lather lower rates taken, and little desire is shown
to t.. 0 business by private treaty. The value of
ordinary and good culinary Congou is 7id to 81t1
per lb. There is touch dullness in the market tor
Green, and rather I,,wPr rates are taken for interior;
good and fine, however, realise lull market terms.
Scented and Pekoe Teas have been dealt in with caution,
and must be called rather cheaper. The deliveries of
Tea are still greater than up to this time last year,
whilst the sto k on hand is smaller, and dealers are but
moderately supplied. Public sale.; of Tea are declared
to take place on Friday, the quantity at present adver-
tised is 6,600 pkgs.
COFFEE.—This afternoon Costa Rica Coffee met with
greater attention, and 1,639 bags at auction sold at firm
rates; fine and fine fine ordinary 33a to 38s. 24 pkgs
Jamaica taken in—fine at 90s, good 70s to 85s, and
middling 60s. 620 bags Plantation Ceylon sold at late
rates—flue at 603 to 643 6d, good middling and good 52a

to 58s, low middling and middling 44s to 50s, fine fine
ordinaoy 35s to 41s, good and fine ordinary 28s to
29s 6d.

RICE.—To-day there was no public sale of East India
Rico and privately few purchases were made by ex-
porters or home trade buyers. Cleaned Rice is cheaper,
town dressed Carolina selling at 25s to 28s per cwt.
SPIRITS.—For Jamaica Rum rather lower rates are
again accepted, still exporters and home-trade buyers
evince little desire to operate in the lower sorts ; fine is,
however, wanted, and realise full market rates. The
value of mid and good, 28 to 34 per cent over proof,
is 3s 3d to 3s 10d, low 3s to 3s 2d, and fine, 34 to 38
over, 4s to 4s 6d. Leeward Island met with little atten-
tion, and a decline was observable, small sales haring
been made at is 6d to Is 6A-d for proof. East India is
not much in demand, and the rates accepted are I s 5d to
Is sid ; several parcels are also near at hand. For Dane-
rare, the market looks dull, and the rates taken for strong
sorts are 2a 2d to 2s 9d. Brandy is not higher, still the:mar-
ket is firm, and there is a good demand, whilst the stock is
small: for Cognac, best brands, of the vintage of 1846, the
rates paid are 4s 10d to ss, 1847 ditto 3s 10d to 4s,
inferior sorts 2s 6d to 3s; Bordeaux, 2s to 2s Id
for export sot t, and 2s 6d to 3s 6d for fit for duty. There
is only a limited stock here. For British made Spirit
there is a firm market, the price of Gin fur exportation
has been fixed at 3s 6d per gallon proof.
SALTPETRE.—To <lay only a limited demand existed
for rough privately, and 946 bags at auction went upon
rather lower terms, and a part only sold ; middling
grey 8 to 84 per cent refraction at 24s 6d to 255, Si
good 253 6d.

SPICES.—To-day, at public sale, 136 bags White Pep-
per sold at 4d to 4d tor middling, which aro rather
lower rates; and 44 packages Jamaica Ginger at 53s to
100 s per cwt.

Saco is more in demand, and prices aro rather higher
for she better sorts: there is, however, a more plentiful
supply. To-day at public sale 200 boxes Pearl have
been sold at 21s to 21s 6d per cwt.
INDIGO. The Quarterly Sale of East India com-
menced this day. During the progress of the sale 165
chests were withdrawn. 962 chests have passed
the sale. There was a fair attendance of foreign
and home buyers ; the biddings, however, have
not been animated, although proprietors have gene-
rally given strong support to their marks.- Prices have
been exceedingly irregular—the ordinary and low
qualities of Bengal, and the few lots of fine shipping
sorts, selling at the last sales's rates; whilst the middling
descriptions, chiefly fit for the German markets, brought
an advance of 3d to 4d per lb. Kurpahs have ben in
brisk demand, at about 4d advance; but Madras were
negketed at the prices of the last sale. Proprietors
have bought in 315 chests.
num.—There is still only a limited demand for
Raisins, and a decrease is shown to sell new Valentia at
38s to 40s. New Currants move off slowly at 425, and
old at 345. The supply of Fruit is likely to be extensive
this year.
COCHINEAL—To-day [more desire was shown to do
business in Cochineal and 220 bags at auction all sold at
fully former rates, silvers 3s 5d to 41 6d per lb.

TALLOW.—The marker for Russian has been in a dull
state since our last report, importers are willing sellers,
and submitted to further reduced rates, The value of
fine new P. Y.C. is 45s 91 to 46s per cwt, at which
a desire is shown to realise. For forward de-
livery only a small amount of business has
been done up to the elose of the year at 45s 6d to
45s 9d. Home melted is less wanted, and can :be ob-
tained at 451 6d to 46s nett cash, and which are lower
rats s. Other kinds of Tallow are cheaper, and met
with little attention. At public sale 141 casks of
New South Wales were only in part sold at 40s to
44s 9d, and very low 37s 93; 52 casks East India
46s 161 to 50s 3d; and 26 mos South American 43s
to 44s 6d per cwt. The value of Rough Fat is 2s 7d
per stone. Imports of Tallow have been upon a large
scale since this day week, and the stock far exceeds that
of this time last year, but deliveries are greater, whilst
prices rule above that time. Fur public sale 500 casks
are declared.

Orr.s.—For public competition on Friday 15 tuns of
Sperm, 90 of Southern, 22 tuns Cocoa Nut, and 132
casks of Palm are declared. imports are still of little
moment, whereas deliveries continue of a satisfactory
nature, and prices rule much under those of this
time last year. Southern is wanted, and as th. 3
supply is small former rates aro well supported. At
Pubic sale 17 tuns were sold. Seal is in excellent
demand, and on the part of holders there is firmness ;
pale is worth 26/ lOs to 274 tinged and straw
251 lOs to 264 and other sorts 241 to 25/ per
ton. Sperm is in excellent demand, and prices
tend upwards, good and fine quality realizing 701 to 731
per tun, and there is a decreased supply, whereas the
consumption is getting larser. Linseed Oil finds a more
ready sale for home trade purposes, whilst a brisker ex-
port demand exists, still prices cannot be quoted higher,
and they rule at 223 to 22s 3d per cwt on the spot.
For forward delivery sales to a fair extent are re-
ported at 22s 63. There is still a plentiful supply,
but the consumption continues of a satisfactory
nature, and prices are lower than for a lower than fur a
long period. Rapeseed Oil is held with firmness, pale at 37s
and brown 365, at which a good business has been
done, and the supply does not get larger. Palm is much
wanted and realised further advanced rates, deliveries
also continue to exceed arrivals— fine has been selling at
33s 6d to 345, and low to good 30s to 335. Cocoa Nut met
with more attention, yet there is no no advance to record
in the value, as Ceylon can be obtained at 39s to 40s,
and Cochin 40s to 425. Of Olive there is yet a
scanty supply, and as the trade are desirous to operate
prices rule high; they range at 491 to 501 per tun for
Gallipoli, 471 to 4SI for Spanish and Sicily, and 451 to
46s for Barbary, Levant, and Portugal. The consump-
tion is still getting larger, and is likely so to continue.
Lard Oil is not much in demand, and can be obtained at
43s to 445. Ground Nut is also dull of sale, at 35s to
86s per cwt.
