MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London IVeT Price Current, Aug. 15.)
SUGAR.—To-day only limited purchases were made
West India Sugar, and rather lower rates were taken
ur inferior sorts, making a fall for the week of 6d to Is,
but on the better qualities of yellow the decline is not
more than 6d. The purchases are 550 hhds, &e., includ-
ing at auction 225 pkgs Nevis, which sold at 30s 6d to
32s 6d for low to tine brown, and at 33s to 37s for com-
mon to good yellow ; 46 hhds Demerara crystalized,
good yellow 42s to 435, and mid 38a.
REFINED.—To-day there was no variation in the
value of Refined Sugar, but home dealwrs made purchases
with reluctance, and the supply is getting more plentiful.
Crushed Sugar met with a dull demand for exportation,
and at the rates of yesterday there are free sellers.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar met
with little notice; the better kinds of yellow sustained
the former value, but inferior and brown went rather
cheaper. At auction 4,010 bags sold—low to mid brown
went at 283 to 301, better sorts 31s to 335; low to good
yellow 37s Od to 37s fid per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the market for Bengal
Sugar presented a dull aspect, the best white and grainy
realiz?d full rates, but a slight reduction has taken place
for inferior kinds. At public sale 3,800 bags nearly all
sold, good to fine white Benares went at 403 to 41s 6d,
low to good mid 37s 6d to 39s 6,1, damp
and washed 37s to 40s, low to good soft yellow 30s,
to 36a 6d, good brown 29s to 29s 6d, fine gi aitay white
455, superior like Mauritius 37s 6d to 40-, mid to fine
349 to 399, low 33s to 33s 6(1. Madras is rather cheaper,
and 731 bags went at 26s 6d to 28s 6d for low to fine
soft brown and 321 bags Penang at 34s 6d to 36s for mid
to good yellow.
FOREIGN.—To-day holders of Foreign generally re-
fused to submit to any fur, her reduction; the private
operations were of little moment, and confined chiefly to
to a cargo of brown Bahia at 173 6d for fair quality. At
auction 110 pkgs 227 bags Brazil were only in part
sold, low to fine brown Bahia at 28s 6d to 323 6d, low
yellow 32s 6d to 335, and brown Pernambuco at
at 29a to 32s per cwt: of Egyptian 50 pkgs went at 353
for fair yellow, and at 33s for low. These are rather
lower rates. Two cargoes yellow llavannah sold at 20$
6d to 20s 9d equal to No. 11i.
MOLASSES.—To-day at public sale 40 puns St. Nevis
Molasses sold at 12s 6d per cwt, being barely the former
value.

COFFEE.—This afternoon Plantation Ceylon C,
met with ready purchasers. and in some cases stitrwr
rates are paid; at auction 252 casks all sold, mid 54s to
575, low mid 52a to 535. fine to fine fine ord 4as to 51s, pea
berry 58i to 625, and triage 35s to 43s 6d. Native met
a good demand, and the parcels sold privately were at
41s to 41s 63; at auction 303 bags realized 41s tor good
ord, and 34s to 39s tor damaged. Or Bahia 610 bags
were taken in at 36s 61 to 37s for good ord, cioufly at
36s 6d, being above the value, but damaged sold at 29s 6d
to 34s per cwt.

COCOA.—Fine red Trinidad is sill wanted and supply
being small former rates of 508 to 55s par c.‘ I have
been paid other kinds are held for full terms, bnt met
with less attention. At auction 422 bags Trinidad were
partly sold; good red at 44s to 48s, ord and mid 41s to
44; grey from 38s to 41s; 37 bags mid Grenada 375,
and 9 brie 30 bags St. Vincent's mid and fine 37s to
43s 6d. Foreign confirm, s to meet with little attention,
and holders are not disposed to sell at any further de-
cline, and require 26s to 27s for Bahia and Para, and
for Guayaquil 28s to 30a per cwt.
TEA.—lbe dulness in the market for Green further
increased this week, and larger parcels have been brought

forward; a reduction has taken plane of id to Id per lb
for Ilyson, and prices are rether lower for most other
sorts. but Youeg Hyson continue to he, wanted, and many
parcels have been sold at full terms. Congou is in
larger supply and offered, rather under the rates prevail-
ing, yet dealers have manifested a reluctance to operate,
aed best sorts are least required. The prices accepted
for low to good common have been 9 d to 104 d, medium
to rather strong blackish leaf 101 d to I lid, and good to
fiae is to is 6d. Souchong met with a dull demand,
and a slight reduction is apparent, better qualities
meeting with the least attention. Oolong is yet held for
Is to is 7d, at the same time little has been done. The
supply of Scented and Pekoe Teas far exceed dealers
wants: a fall has taken place of Id per lb for Orange
Pekoe, and rates are rather lower for most other sorts.
RlCE.—There is a reluctance on the part of holders of
East India to sell under the rates prevailing previously,
and the market is sparingly supplied. The private opera
tions are upon a small scale by exporters and home
dealers. The present value is for good and fine white
Bengal 9s 64 to 103 6d, mid 9s to Vs 3d, low and broken
8s 3d to 8s 9d, cargo 7. 6d, Arraca❑ Bs, pinkey Madras
7s to 7s 9d, and Bengal grain 8s to 8s 64 per cwt. An
impression exists that rather lower prices will prevail.
None has been offered at auction this week, and Rice is
cheaper than in the preceding season.
SPlRlTS.—Demerara Rum remains in good demand,
and previous terms have been well supported, the parcels
sold realising 2s to 2s 3d per gallon for 30 to 40 per cent
over proof. In East India a fair business has been con-
cluded at is 3id to is 4d proof strength; indeed,
thereat some parties will not sell. Several transactions
have taken place in Leeward Island; pieces are firm
at Is 5d to is 6d proof, and there is only a limited
amount on offer. Fine Jamaica has met with a
free sale both for shipping and home trade purposes,
and the terms paid have been from 3s 2d to
4s 4d for 34 to 38 per cent. over proof. Previous
rates are also well supported for other sorts, and a fair
demand prevails, good mid to good 32 to 34 over proof
realized 2s 9d to 3s, low and mid 30 to 33 over 2s 6d to
2s Bd. Brandy continues to be operated in with re-
luctance, and In consequence of a large stock, lower
rates are expected to prevail; there is, however, a fair
consumption, and dealers are moderately supplied. The va-
lue of Cognac best brands of the vintage of 1850 is 4s 4d to
4s 6d, 1849 ditto 4s 5d to 4s 7d, 1848 ditto 4s 10d to ss,
older sorts 5s 4d to 7s, low to mid 2s 6d to 3s 6d, and
Bordeaux 2s 2d to 2s 3d. There is yet only a moderate
business doing in British made Spirit, still quotations re-
main firm at 9s 54 to 9s 64, and Gin for exportation at
2s 6d. The small parcels of Geneva sold were at is 7d
to is 8d for ord, and fine is 9d to 2s.
SPICES.—With Nutmegs the market continues to be
sparingly supplied, there are several buyers, and prices
have an upward tendency—low to mid sound brown
realizing 2s 3d to 2s 10d, better sorts 3s to 3s 8d ; and
low to flue limed is 6d to 2s Bd. Ginger is still pur-
chased with caution ; and prices are yet on the decline
tor Jamaica, the public sales of 250 pckgs went at 47s to
778 for ord to good ; and one lot tine at 1235. African is to
be obtained at 24s 64 to 25s 6d; and shipping East India
at 15s to 17s; but operations have been trifling. The
Cinnamon market has a dull aspect, especially for the
lower sorts; there are sellers of Ceylon at, from is 8d
to 3s 4d for first sort; is 3d to 2s 4d fur second; and at
9d to 2s p.r lb for third and fourth. To-day the public
sales of Ginger went at lower rates, 200 es Cochin eel-
ling 43s to 464 6d tor na,d home trade sort, and 393
to 423 for common; 71 brls Jamaica, ord to mid 46s to
47s p r cwt.

COCULNEAL —The demand has been brisker this week
for all sort., and full rates are obtained. At auction 210
bags Honduras nearly all sold; low to mid silvers went
at 2s lld to 3s 3d, good to fine 3s 4d to 3s 8d; good to
fine black 3s 93 to 455 d, interior and mid 3s Id to 3s 8d;
80 bsgs Mexican Silvers 3s to 3s 31, black 3s 4d to
3s 63, 6 bags Ten. rife 3s 9d to 3s 11d; small parcels of
Gratiilla realised 2s 3d to 2s 53, and Gorbliugs is 3d
to Is 61. Stock is 2 000 bags more than last year.
INDloo.—Ttie market for East India is in a firm posi-
tion, there is a fair home trade and export demand,
whilst the rates obtained are 23 to 3d per lb, above the
last quarterly sale.-.; Madras, Kurpah, and good Bengal
are yet most in demand. Of Spanish the supply has
tallen off, and there is a fair business doing, at prices
rather above those of this day week; Sobres selling at
4s to ss; Cortes is 6d to 4a Od per lb.
SALTPETRE.—To day Saltpetre met with a good de-
mand, and realised stiffer rates. At public sale 1.845
bags were nearly sold; Calcutta, refraction 44 to 41 per
cent. went at 28, for good quality—fin© 14 ditto 295,
damaged 223 to 263. Eadras, sound 131 per cent 25s
6d, and 7id ditto 26s 6d per cwt.
OLLs.—The demand for Seal Oil has further di-
minished, and prices have declined, limited purchases
having been made in pale at 341 to 341 10s: and other
descriptions at 311 to 321. There are few buyers of
Cod, and 36/ is the current value, with a down-
ward tendency. Southern is in good demand,
and supply being small buyers have been compelled
to pay 321 10s to 331 lOs fir good to fine, and 311 10,
to 321 for interior sorts. Prices are sustained for Sperm;
but transactions have been limited at 841 to 66/ for
colonial, and the market will be more freely supplied
shortly. Headmatter has been selling at 901 to 92/ per
tun. There are few home or export buyers of Cocoa Nut
and rates have a downward tendency; Ceylon selling at
293 63 to 31s 6d; and Cochin 31s to 32s 6d; still con-
sumption, is yet on the increase. Rape Seed Oil has
been operated in with caution, and a reduction is
apparent ; the supply is also more plentiful ; sales of
brown have bean made at 323 6d to 33 ; Refined 345;
Foreign 34s 63 to 35s ; and brown East India 34, 63
to 335. Teel Seed is dull of sale at 30s 6d to 31s. Lin-
seed Oil has been operated in with reluctance both for
shipping and home use, rates have receeded, and rule at
32s 6d to 335; still production does ❑ot much exceed the
consumption. For forward delivery there is, however, a
good demand at 325, and with not free sellers.
TALLOW.— This afternoon the public sales of Tallow
went off at full rates; 350 casks South American at 36a
to 37s 9d, and 260 Australian—good Mutton 37s to
37s 6d; Beef, rather soft 36s 6d to 36s 9d per cwt.
