MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the " London New Price Current" of yesterday.)

SUGAR.—The demand for coloury Sugars last week continued
general and extensive, and the prices advanced Is. per cwt. ;
this improvement was confirmed by the public sale of Trinidad
and St. Lucia Sugar, which were good useful qualities, and sold
565. for the coloury, which were valued at 555. and 545. 6d. ; the
others in the same proportion, except inferior and brown de-
scriptions, which are still heavy, and, in several instances, a
shade lower. The weekly deliveries from the warehouses con.
tinue much larger than last year at the same period, and the
one for the last week shows such an excess that the holders
early this morning put an additional Is. per cwt. on their Sugars;
this checked the demand at an early hour, but as the day
proceeded the advance has in many instances been submitted to;
the estimated purchases, including the Barbadoes, are 700 hhds.
and trs. ; the latter went off with briskness Is. higher than on
this day week. The stock of West India Sugar is now 25,704
bhds. and trs., being 6,554 more than last year. The delivery
of West India 3,067 hhds. and trs., being 928 more than last
year. The delivery of Mauritius 9,140 bags, being 1,329 more
than the corresponding week of 1833. In the Refined Market
the grocery descriptions have lately gone off more freely at full
market prices ; the fine Crashed, entitled to the bounty on
double refined, have sold in parcels 30s. 9d. and 31s. ; the latter
is still asked, and is the nearest quotation ; the inferior
Crashed has been well cleared off by the late sales, but they are
rather heavy. This day the inquiries for Refined have been
general and extensive, and an improvement of Is. in the prices
may be stated. The grocers are free buyers for home con.
sumption ; some Lumps are again offering : low at 655., and
good 675. and GSs.; Crashed 31s.
MAURITIUS SUGAR.—The public sales consisted of good
coloury Mauritius, which sold freely 6d. to Is. per cwt. higher
being the descriptions suitable to the present demand.
EAST INDIA SUGAR.—The Bengal Sugars last week went off
Is. 6d. to 2s. higher; Siam and all other East India Sugars ls.
higher, the late fair yellow to mid. white, 225. 6d. to 255.; the
Bengal at the India House, 7,063 bags, sold ord. to good white,
245. 6d. to 31s. 6d.

FOREIGN SUGAR.—The question of the tares on Foreign
Sugar is not yet adjusted; the consequence is that few pur-
chases are lately reported, About 300 chests white Bahia
Sugars have been sold by private contract, but no particulars
have yet transpired; it is reported at an average of 255. The
public sale advertised for this day has been withdrawn. There
is an evident increase in the inquiries after Foreign Sugar this
afternoon. Average price of Sugar, 1/. Bs. 60. per cwt.
COFFEE.—We have lately reported a partial fall in the
prices of Coffee ; it is now general on all descriptions of Bri-
tish Plantation, Foreign, and East India, at about 2s. per cwt. ;
good and fine ord. Jamaica is now 81s. to 875.; mid. Berbice
88s. and 89s. ; ord. Ceylon 565. and 565. 6d. ; fine ord. Sama.
rang 525. 6d. ; good ord. Batavia 555. 6d. and 565. ; ord. brown
Sumatra 475. and 48s. ; good ord. brown Havannah 555. and 565. ;
fine ord. Brazil 575. 6d. There were no public sales of Coffee
this forenoon, and no purchases by private contract are reported.
The Market has a heavy appearance. At the close of the Mar-
ket a parcel good ord. Brazil sold at 58s. _

Rum, BRANDY, HOLLANDS, AND BRITISH SPIRITS.—The Rum
Market is so very firm that purchases cannot be made at the
prices of last week. No Leewards now offer under 2s. 3d., and
very few Jamaica under 3s. ; the low strengths of the latter are
very scarce. There was a considerable sale of Brandy on Sa.
urday ; the particulars as to prices, &c.; have not transpired,
but it is supposed to be about 3s. Sd. In Geneva there is no
alteration. British Spirits have been in most extensive de..
mand, the dealers laying in large stocks in the anticipation of
the duty being advanced early in the present Session of Par-
liament. The price has not advanced. It is 9s. 7d. to 9s. Ed.
At a late hour two parcels Demerara Rum sold, 30 over, puns.
and hhds., 3s. The other, 34 to 37 over, 2s. I Id. to 3s.
TALLOW.—The Tallow Market continues steady; the pur-
chases for immediate consumption are very extensive ; fine
quality is much inquired after at higher rates. The quotation
at a late hour this evening was 435. 3d. The speculators for
the fall of Tallow, have been offering large parcels of rejected
Tallow at rather lower prices ; these were rejected, not on ac-
count of the quality, but owing to a question arising out of thede
late bankruptcy of the brokers ; they also offer for
repute, on account of the numerous failures which we noted
some weeks ago.
TURPENTINE.—
A parcel in this week sold at about 13s. on
the Liverpool terms of 1-sth and 2,000 barrels more arrived,
distant
out -
livery on lower terms, but the latter have gone entirely
of
and 13s„ 6d. asked on same terms, which our London drawers
object to buy on.
INDIGO.—The Indigo Market appears to be very firm ;
there are no sellers of parcels of the late India House sale,
except at an advance. The late sale at Liverpool went off 3d,
to 4d. per lb. higher than the market prices here, which has
again given increased confidence to the holders ; but some of
the over-anxious speculators for the rise have injured their own
cause by industriously circulating a very foolish letter from
Bordeaux, with intelligence from Calcutta, 2d October, in
which the crop of Indigo is stated so low as 60,000 maunds.
The accounts direct to London mention the crop at 80,000 to
to 85,000 maunds, which we have reason to believe is correct,
:i f prices, ,
Refinedan da, also,
ando Sperm

and even this is still a very low average production.
Olos.—Common Oils have realised at public sale during the
last weekvan the quoted

the holders requiring 50/. In Gallipoli Oil no sale. Rape Oil

dearer. Linseed Oil of heavy sale and a shade lower.
SPlCES.—Spices are dull. Ord. half heavy Pepper 31d. ;
good heavy black 3/d. to 41d. Pimento is also a shade lower,
mid. to good 41d. to 4-Id.
WOOL.—No business whatever doing in Foreign Wools ; the
arrivals are large. For English Wool prices are advancing
TEA.—There is more firmness in the market, and both
Boheas and Congous may be quoted as rather better.
Corrox.--There are more inquiries after Cotton, but the
actual sales reported are too considerable for enumeration.
SALTPETRE.—SaItpetre is heavy and rather lower ; the
Refined has fallen to 365. and 365. 6d.
RicE.—Rice is still dull; new Z'arolina is 345.

FRUIT.—In Currants and in the low descriptions of Fruit
there have been extensive transactions ; the fine are still
neglected.
