MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the" London New Price Current" of yesterday.)
SUGAR-The demand (or West India Muscovades has
been very languid all the week; the estimated sales are
only 1,800 hhds. and trs. ; there is no general reduction
in the prices, but where the holders were determined to
effect sales, a small reduction was submitted to. This
afternoon there appears to be a considerable improvement
in the demand for Sugar; there is no alteration whatever
in the prices. In Refined goods little business has been
lately reported for export; 355. for fine Crushed for export
is still refused, about 38e. being still obtainable for limited
parcels for the home consumption. The Mirket this
afternoon continues in the same unsettled state as last
week ; very few goode on show for sale, and the exporters
doing very little either in Packed or Crushed, which are
held at 2s. per cwt. higher than at what some orders could
be executed ; the home consumption trade is also very
slack at present.
'MAURITIUS SUGAR-The lower descriptions continue
scarce, and in demand, at rather higher prices; the brown
at Tuesday's public sale still hieh, in proportion to the
finer qualities. This day, at public sale, 3,746 bags
Mauritius Sugar sold well, at about former prices, yellow
58s. a 655., brown 565. 6d. a 575.
EAST INDIA SUGAR-There are are no sales of East
India Sugar worth reporting. This day 1,135 bags Ma-
nilla Sugar were offered at public sale, but refused at
Is. 6d. a 2s. reduction on last sales prices, and all bought
in at 251. ; of 1,763 baskets Java, good and fine yellow
and gray, about 400 were sold at the same reduction ;
245. 6d. for low yellow, to 28s. a 295. for fine, having
been obtained.
FOREIGN SUGAR-The few transactions reported in
Foreign Sugars this week are at lower prices ; mid. white
Haviinnah being sold at 335., and mid. yellow 26'. 6d.
Comm--There is little alteration in Coffee this week,
the sales of British Plantation are very limited, yet at firm
prices. Foreign and East India are also neglected. This
day our Coffee sales consisted of 27 casks Jamaica, which
sold very well, 107 s. 6d. a 112 s. paid for mid. and good ;
43 bags triage Demerara realized from 50s. for very ord.,
to 84s. 6d. for good ; a few hales of fine yellow Mocha
were bought in at 1245. ; of other descriptions there has
been no sale, and no demand privately.
Rum, BRANDY, AND lIOLLANDS-The arrivals of
Ruin lately are very extensive, yet the prices of the
Market, in place of being depressed are ad‘ an •ing ; a rise
of to Id. per gallon has taken place in Jamaica de-
scriptions ; some strong Demerara has been sold at a
similar improvement, In Brandy or Geneva there is little
alteration.
TALLOW-The Tallow Market has been brisk ; the
prices again rather higher. •
SALTPETRE-The sales lately are on the most limited
scale. The East India Company declared 238 tons to
he re-sold 20th prox, some defalcations in the deposits
having occurred.
NITRATE OF SODA-Several parcels have changed
hands at 278. 6d.
COTTON-The demand for Cotton has been limited all
the week ; the purchases are inconsiderable, but there are
no sellers at any reduction in price. The sales are 2,320
Surat ord. to good 61d. a 8/1 ; 210 Bengal, fair to good
fair, lid. a 71(1. ; 210 Madras, good and fair, 811. a 8:3-d. ;
400 Bowed, mid. and lair, 10d. a ; 100 Egyptian,
good, 13111.
INDIGO-There has been more business done quietly
this week than for some time past, and a few parcels of
the early part of the last East India House Sale have been
sold at 3d. advance, which is equal to 6d. a Bd. advance
on the average of the sale.
Lusa Paovastonsa-Since our last of Tuesday a trill.
ing advance in price has been obtained upon some descrip-
tions of Irish Butter, such as prime Waterford brands,
Carlow and good assortments of Limerick, but we cannot
notice the least speculative disposition evinced by the
trade; and as for Bacon, Hams, Bladder Lard, Beef and
Pork, the prices of that day are nominally the same.
Hors-The estimated duty has again advanced ; it is
now 190,000/. The quotations of Hops are nearly
nominal. Sussex pockets 70s. a 905., Kent 755. a 105 s
The picking will commence generally about the Bth o
September.

RICE-At the public sale of 2,175 bags Bengal White
Rice, only 100 bags sold at 14s. 6d. the remainder with-
drawn at 14s. 6d. and 15s. This day, by public sale,
30 tierces good Carolina sold at 349. 6d. at 359. East
India is inquired for at yesterday's advance.
COCHINEAL continues a favourite article for speculation,
and prices ate• ap;din rather higher since our last, At
public sale yesterday eight bags were sold at rather lower
prices than are obtained by private contract, in conse.
quence cf but very few of the trade leaving attended the
sale.

TOBACCO-There is no alteration in Tobacco.
SricEs—,The Pimento at •public sales this week has
gone off.eeadily, middling to good 5-kd. a sd. This day
by pulli&-sale 279 bags black Pepper, shot, but rather
gray, were sold at Sad. a 51d. per lb., which is about id.
