MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current, May 16.)
SUGAR.-To-day West India Sugar was in good de-
mand, but at former rates merchants were desirous to
sell both Grocery and Refining sorts. The purchases
are 746 hhds, &c., including at auction 60 hhds 20 trcs
Jamaica, which sold at easier rates; mid to good yellow
went at 38s to 395, low 37s to 37s 6d, good and fine brown
36s to 36s 6d. 10 hhds mid yellow Demerara 38s 6d, 20
hhds Birhadoes low to mid 37s to 395, 100 hhds 30 trcs
and 90 brls Demerara crystalized sold at prices in favour
of the buyers, good to fine yellow at 41s to 45s 6d, mid
38s to 408.
REFINED.-To•day the Refined Sugar market pre-
sented a quiet aspect, still brown lumps are not offered
under 483 6d. British Crushed Sugar is yet dull of sale
at 27s 6d to 28s per cwt.
MAURITIUS.-This afternoon less desire was evinced
to operate in Mauritius Sugar, and former rates are
barely supported. At auction 3,460 bags in part sold at
40s 6d to 41s for fine yellow, and at 36s to 40s for low
to good.
FOREIGN.-To-day there was no public sale of Foreign
Sugar, but holders would not sell but at full rates,
although less desire is evinced to operate.
EAST INDIA.-This afternoon prices declined 6d per
cwt at the public sales of Bengal, but nearly all offered,
amounting to 3,777 bags, found buyers, fine white at 42s
to 435, low to good 39s to 44s 6d, damp 37s 6d to 41a 6d,
good to fine grainy yellow 42s 6d to 44a per cwt.
MOLASSES.-The market for West India is firm, and
a tair business has be-•n concluded at 14s to 17s for Joe
to fine; at auction 20 puns St. Kitts were sold at 15s.
Bengal and Mauritius are wanted at 12s to 13a; taw
parcels are, however, in the market. Of Cuba 213 hhds
378 trs 8 brls at auction were bought in at 158 6d.
Honey is in larger supply, and prices are receding.
COFFEE -This afternoon shippers and home dealer,,
manifested little desire to operate in Coffee, and pre-
vious prices are barely supported. At auction 200 bags
Dutch Java were token in, fine blue at 755, good ord
pale at 48.; 498 bags 8 casks Native Ceylon in part
sold, real good ord 41s 6d to 425, good ord 40a, very
ord of an old import 39s 6d, and 10 bags fine fine ord
Costa Rice 503 per cwt.
TEA.-Although there are sellers of Congou at a re-
daction on previous terms of id per lb, yet the trade
operated with reluctance. Common has been selling at.
Hid to 1 lid; medium to rather strong blackish leaf
sorts is to is Id, and better kinds is lid to is 7d per lb.
Ot Oolong, however, several parcels have been disposed
of, owing to a further reduction having taken place.
The quantity of green on offer is large. In Pekoe
scented Teas little has been done, and parcels can only
be sold at a further decline, whilst the anintity on offer
exceeds consumption. Of 2,400 pkgs of Tea at auction
on Tuesday, only 900 found buyers. The quantity de-
clared for next week is large, amounting to 20,000 pkgs,
2,300 of which consist of Assam.
Cocoa.-This afternoon the market for Cocoa again
presented a dull aspect, and at auction 200 bags Trinidad
returned from Cadiz were taken in at 40s to 41s for low
grey.
RICE.-Although East India is offered rather under
last week's rates, only trifling purchases have been made
privately by shippers or home dealers, and the supply
is larger than it was last week. Of Madras 3,517 bags
good white at auction were taken in at 8s ; but
716 bags good middling Bengal, sold at 9s
to 9i 6i. The value of low to fine is 8s to Ils ;
common to mid piekey Madras 7s 3d to 7s 9d, Arracae
Bs, and Cargo 7s to 73 3d per cwt. Cleaned Rice has
been operated in with caution, and sellers are willing to
accept 103 to 15s for common to fine Patna; and
20s to 25s for town dressed Carolina. Sago is
rather cheaper, the quantity offered at auction
having been large, and amounted to 1,535 chests
and 814 bags ; still a fair part sold at 18s to 23s for mid
to fine small pearl ; and a few lots very superior white
at 39s to 40s. Of Sago Flour 972 bags has partly found
buyers at 14s to 15s. The public sales of 54 tins, 600
brls, 1751 brls Arrowroot went at 4d to 8d for St.
Vincent ; Bermuda Is to Is 2d, for good to fine ; 21
cases Tapioca Flour at lid to 2d, and 75 brls Tapioca
lid to 4d per lb.
Seines -With Nutmegs the market has been largely
supplied this week, and there has been a reduction in the
value of 2d to 3d per Ib, the fall being most apparent on
inferior sorts. At auction 276 chts &c were nearly all sold;
fine brown went at 3s 6d to 3s 10d, good mid to good 2s
9d to 3s 3d, mid 2s 4d to 2s 9d, low is lld to 2s 3d, ord
and very small limed is to Is Bd, but 4 casks of good limed
Dutch were taken in at 23 4d to2B 6d per lb. Mace is Id to
2d cheaper, but 105 chests at auction all tound purchasers
at Is 10d to 2s2d. good at 2s 4d to2s 6d, and one lot low is
6d. Importers of Pepper are still disposed to realize, and
prices have further declined id per lb, whilst only limited
transactions have taken place privately. At auction
1,908 bgs sold at 2i to 3d for light grey, but
chiefly at the former rate. The value of Malabar is 3d
to 31d, and Sumatra 3d per lb. White is still wanted,
mid
and commands late rates, supply not being much larger.
At auction 320 bogs sold at 7d to 7id per lb tor good
and good. Pimento is wanted at previous rates, and few
parcels are in the market. At public sale 20 bags fetched
