the full value. For all kinds of Foreign the market is
dull.

Proof can be obtained at is 8d to is 9d per gallon. East
India is held for is Sd to is 6d, few buyers are, how-
ever, to be met with. For Jamaica the demand is limited
for exportation; all sorts have been dealt in with caution by
exporters, whilst former rates cannot be obtained. De-
merara is offered upon lower terms, yet the sales made
have been small. Havannah is dull of sale at is 5d
proof. With all sorts of Rum the market is plentifully
supplied, and export orders are unusually small for the

parcels of Palm have come to hand, and prices are de-
pressed from the limited demand. Lard Oil is only in
limited request. With Fish Oils the market has been
less plentifully supplied this week, and arrivals are of
little moment. Other sorts are still dull of sale.
