MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
From the London New Price Current of April 28.)
Suoaa.-To-day a further advance was apparent in
:he value of all descriptions of raw Sugar, and the.quan-
tity brought to market was not more than requisite for
the wants of the trade. The market has a firm aspect.
West India Muscovado met with a good demand, and
realised stiffer rates, making the rise for the week 6d to
Is per cwt. At auction 81 hhds, 6 tree, and 41 brla of
Berbice went at 36s to 36s 6d for middling grey, and at
35s 6d per cwt for low. To-day 490 hhds were sold,
making 1,626 hhds and tree for the week.
REPINED.-To-day refined Sugar was much sought
after by -the home trade, but the quantity on offer was
small. Prices closed with firmness. Standard Lumps
at 54s 6d, and brown grocery 53s 6d per cwt. Bonded
'Crushed Sugar is in good demand, the best make realises
27s per cwt.
Manarrrus.-This afternoon much desire was mani-
fested to do business in Mauritius Sugar, and 5,308 bats
at public sale 'sold at 6d advance; good yellow realised
38s to 38s 6d, middling 37s to 38s, low and middling
grey 35s 6d. to 375, washed and syrupy 35s to 38s 6d.
Privately several parcels were disposed of.
EAST INDIA.-This afternoon the market was much
better supplied with Bengal sugar : the quantity offered
at public sale amounted to 8,425 bags and 4 casks, but
*early the whole sold ut 6d to is advance ; Benares, fine
white fetched 42s to 42s 6d, good 41a 6d, middling 408 to
40s 6d, low 39s to 39a 6d, damp and washed 38s to
42s 6d, fine grainy white .50s 6d to 51.8 6d, fine
yellow 458 to 475, good 41s to 435, low and middling
34s 6d to 38s, and ordinary brown 30s 6d, Of Penang
875 baskets went at is advance ; low and middling
brown, out of condition, went at 27s to 295, good 30s to
31s, low and middling yellow 32s 6d to 33s 6d, and good
355. 300 bags Madras sold at 28s for low damp brown,
and at 31s for yellow ; 21 cases of Singapore, middling
greyish yellow 395, and which are rather better prices.
FOREIGN.-There has been more inclination mani-
fested to do business for all purposes, and the tendency
of prices is to advance. At public sale yesterday, 2,083
boxes of Havannah were all sold at a rise on the rates
previously current of 6d per cwt. : good yellow fetched
39s to 39s 6d, low and middling 37s 6d to 38s 6d. mid-
dling and good brown 36s to 375, low soft grey 35s to
35s 6d, and washed 34s 6d to 393, but 156 boxes white
were withdrawn. By private treaty there has been a
good home demand, and exporters as well as our
Refiners working under bond, have been buyers to a
fair extent. A much larger business would have been
done had holders accepted former rates.
COFFIZE.-This afternoon there was a fair demand for
Mocha Coffee, and 134 bales, 22 half-bales, at auction
were sold at stiffer rates; middling greenish went at 48s
6d, good long bean 665. Of Ceylon 806 bags were sold
at rather higher rates, fine fine ordinary fetched 38s to

; twenty bags of Laguayra, low
middling 435 per cwt.
Cocoa.-West India is not much in demand, still
prices rule firm; Trinidad red at 46s •to 50s, and grey
45s to 48s. The stock is nearly all in the hands of the
trade. Foreign is dull of sale at 32s to 348 per cwt. The
Government contract for 50 tons has been taken by Mr.
Gray of the London Commercial Sale Rooms.
Trza.---The better kinds of Congou are freely offered -
'at previous reduced rates, still all parties make purchases
with caution ; in low 'and Na
good
the ssles,concluded are upon amo Ordinary, however, comb
re ex scale, at
6tl to 7id per lb, whilst prices are lower than for a long -
period. Green remains much the same as this day week, Ashtn
and the dealings have been small in all sorts. Hyson of Bat
ordioary quality is to be obtained at is to Is9d, Twankay Zirrt
ditto 53d to 6d; Gunpowder, Canton 10d to is 3d, and
C
Imperial ditto 9d to Is. Notwithstanding the low rates bow
supply far exceeds the wants arb,
at which scented Teas-can be Obtained, still few buyers Eli
ire to be Met with, and the;'"
of the trade.
RICE..!-To- day East India Rice was sought after, and G]
privately several parcels were sold. Of Bengal 1,360
begs at auction went at rather higher rates, middling i,e,„,,.
white realising 10s 6d to I Is, and damaged 6s to 105 per L
elcesi
cwt. The market closes with an improving appearance
for all sorts.

SPIRITS.—For East India the demand has been ex-
tremely limited, and sellers are willing to accept rather
lower rates. The value of proof is Is 6id to is 7d per
gallon, Leeward Island has been dealt in with caution
at Is 8d to 1s
.9d for proof. In the value ofJamaica there
is little variation, but the purchases made in all sorts have
been trifling and for all purposes. The value of 30 to 36
per cent. over proof is 3s 7d to 4s 2d, and of fine 4s 3d to
48 Bd. Demerara is dull of sale at 2s 9d to 3s 2d for
38 to 36 per cent overproof. Of Havanaah only small
parcels have been sold at is 51d to is 6d proof.
Arrivals of Rum continue on a large scale, whilst
the export demand is unusually small for the period
of the year. Brandy is held for late rates, but the stock
is on the increase, and buyers make purchases with
caution. In Geneva there has been little passing. is 10d
to is lld is the value of ordinary, and 2s 8d to 3s 3d
for tine. British Corn Spirit is much in demand at
106 3d per gallon nett cash.

privately were upon a fair scale, and at full rates, but
368 bags of Calcutta at auction were taken in at 34s for
middling strong grey 11k to 9 per cent. For public
sale 2 000 bags are declared.
FRUIT.—To•day for Currants the demand was brisk,
new at 39s to 425, and old 33s to 35s per cwt; indeed
some parties will not sell upon these terms. Raisins are
in brisker request; sound uew Valentias fetch 40s to 42s
per cwt.

INDIGO The quantity of East India to be offered at
bl pu ic sole on the 9th of next month has been increased
,t)7,287 chests. Only trifling purchases have been made
Hits week for home use, and fur exportation there is yet
scarcely any demand. Parcels could only be forced off
at a decline on last sale's rates of 3d to 4d per lb. The
market for Spanish is in a very dull state, and holders
are willing to accept lower rates.
SPICEEL—To-dav at public sale 12 cases of Nutmegs
sold at rather lower rates, fine brown
2s I Id, good
9d to 2s 10d, middling 2s 4d to 2s sd, low 2s 3d,
