MARKET INTELLIGENCE

(From tho London New 1--rice Current, July 22.)

SucAß.—To•day importers of West India Sugar were
again desirous to realize, and accepted rates 6d per cwt
under those of Friday; and grocers and refiners ope-
rated with caution. The purchases are 675 hhds, &c.
including at auction 170 hhds 40 tierces and 63
barrels Bsrbadoes, which went off flatly, and a part
only sold 6d below the terms of Friday last, low

nary and middling greyish 33s 6d to 34s 6d, and fair
brown 32s 6d per cwt. There is stil a plentiful supply
at market, more especially of ordinary and mid kinds.
REFINED.—To-day Refined Sugar was operated in
with caution for home trade purposes, but the supply
being small, brown lumps were not to be obtained under
46s per cwt. For Crushed Sugar the export demand is
limited with free sellers at former rates.

---MAIIRITIUS.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar was
operated in with much caution, and at auction 793 bags
were only in part sold at rather lower rates, good yellow
went at 36s 6d to 37s 6d, low to middling 34s to 365, and
tine brown 33. to 33s 6d per cwt. There was little done
privately in any sort.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Madras Sugar met with
a dull demand, and the rates taken were rather under
those existing previously ; of 6,468 bags at auction a
small part only sold, mid to fine soft yellow went at 32s
to 365, inferior 29, 6d to 31. 6d, and low to fine brown
27a to 295. Bengal was held for full rates, but met
with little attention ; at auction 1,279 bags were

white went at 37s to 363 6d, low to good yellow like
Mauritius 33. 6d to 36, 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.—To-day Foreign Sugar was offered rather
under the rates of Friday, still the business concludad
was of little moment. Privately operations are a cargo
of yellow Havannah at 21s 3d for number 11, and oue
of brown Pernambuco in bags at 17s 6d per cwt. At
public sale to day only 10 hhds St. Croix were offered,
and sold at 42s to 42s 6d for fine bright yellow.
MoLAssEs.—Operations are upon a more extended
scale in consequence of rather lower rates having been
taken. Ot Porto Rico 25U casks old have been sold at

3s 6d, 200 puns West India Antigua 15* 6d, other sorts

13s to 14s 6d, Bengal and Mauritius in small parcels at

were taken in at 15s 6d for new. Honey is not much
wanted, and there are sellers upon rather lower terms.

vately, and fine red is in scanty supply. At auction 402
bags Trinidad were sold, mid grey at 383 to 395, and red
at 43s to 44s per cwt. The value of Grenada is from
333 to 40s per cwt. Foreign continues to meet with
little attention moderate as prices rule, Bahia and Para

30s per cwt.
COFFEE.—This afternoon a good demand prevailed
for Plantation Ceylon Coffee, bat shippers were again
the chief operators ; at public sale 356 casks and 150
bags were sold at full rates; sorts under the denomina-
tion of low mid, however, went rather cheaper, good to
fine sold at 55s to 665, mid and good 513 to 545, low mid
48s to 50s, other sorts 42s to 475, and low 40s to 41s. In
Native Ceylon there is still little doing, yet good ord is
not offered under 37s 6d. Mocha continues to be wanted.

good common Congou for all purposes, and supply being
more plentiful prices declined id to id per lb; sales
having been made at 9id to 10iil. In other
kinds operations have also been upon a limited
scale, and holders are disposed to sell medium
to rather strong blackish leas at lld to ls, gocd to fine
Is Oi-d.to is 7d. Oolong has been dealt in with caution
at is to is 7d, and there is a fair supply. For Green the
market has been in a dull state; large parcels have
been brought forward, and rather lower rates are
taken for good and fine, but no general reduc-
tion is apparent for inferior. Scented and Pekoe
sorts can be obtained upon rather lower terms,
yet few buyers are to be met with. At public sale
11,000 packages were offered, of which 4,400 Congou,
600 Souchung, 500 Oolong, 1,100 Scented Orange

quantity 5,000 sold at and utter the sales.

rates. None was offered at auction. Of Sago Flour 250
bgs went at 14s 6d to 15s per cwt.
SincEs.—To-day at auction a sale of 8 brls and 166
bgs African Ginger sold at 25s 6d to 265, and damaged

2d for 33 to 38 over, and small parcels other sorts at
Is 9d to 2s for 30 to 32 over proof. Althogugh East
India can be obtained at is 3d to is 3id proof, yet
operations have been trifling and supply larger.
Leeward Island has been operated in with caution
at is 4id to is sd, and fine brown at is sid to is 6d. A
good demand still „exists for fine Jamaica, for all pur-
poses, and the rates paid are from 3s 3d to 4s 6d for 35
to 38 per cent over proof. In other sorts there is still
little „doing, and a desire is evinced to sell low to

6d for shipping. Geneva at Is 7d to is 9d. and fine Is

9d to 2s per gallon.
INDlGo.—Since the termination of the quarterly sales
of East India exporters and home dealers have been pur-
chasers to a fair extent, and the parcels disposed of were
at full rates; on the part of holders there is also firm-
ness. I❑ Spanish there is rather more business doing at
the previous value, and supply is not so plentiful. The
rates paid for Sobres are 3s 6d to 4s 9d, and Cortes is
to 4s. Stock is now 2,312 serons, and last season 510.
COCHINEAL.—There has been a better demand; supply

Honduras silvers 3s to 3s 10d, and black 4s 3d to 4s 8d

SALTPETRE.—The dullness in the market has in-
creased, and there being a plentiful supply prices have
declined 6d to 9d per cwt, and few transactions are re-
ported privately for any purpose. At auction 1,780 bgs
Calcutta were partly sold; good 3/ to 5/ refraction at
27s 6d, good mid 8/ to 11/ per cent 25s 6d per cwt.
TALLOW.—There has been rather more demand for
Russia❑ on the spot, and stiffer rates are paid ; fine
yellow Candle selling at 37s 9d to 33s per cwt. For
delivery a good business has been transacted, and the
prices paid are 39s Od to 39s 3d for last three
months of the year. Home melted sells more
freely at 35s to 365, net cash, and melters are
less disposed to realize. In other sorts of Tallow opera-
tions are upon a more extended scale at stiffer rates.
At auction 211 casks Australian were sold—Beef at 34s
6d to 36s 9d; Sheep, 35s 6d to 37s 6d; 100 casks South

demand, and an advance has taken place; several par-
eels have been disposed of at 311 103 ta 321 per ton.
Other sorts are operated in with more freedom at
291 lOs to 311, and supply remains limited. There
are several buyers of parcels afloat rather under
present rates. In Ced operations are upon a
more extended scale of 361 lOs to 371, and holders

have confidence. Southern is in improved request, and
an advance has taken place for all sorts. At auction
60 tuns were sold, fine at 311 15s to 321 ss; low to
mid 301 to 103. Privately several parcels have been dis-
posed of at similar rates. With Sperm the market has
been more freely supplied; and buyers not being much
disposed to operate rates are on the decline. At
auction 47 tuns went at 811 to 831 15s for
Colonial; and low American 721. For small parcels
of Headmatter the rates paid are 901 to 931.
Cocoa Nut continues in brisk request, and
rates continue to advance; Cochin selling at 311 to 33/,
Ceylon 301 to 32/, and other sorts 291 to 301 per cwt,
there is also a further decrease of supply. Linseed Oil
has met with little attention from exporters; there is,
however, a fair home trade demand.
