MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.'
SUGA EL-The demand for %Vest India ►luscovades has
been languid all the week, and in some instances a further
reduction of 6,1. to Is. per cwt. has been submitted to,
but the decline is not genera!, and the holders have as•
sumed more firmness, and do not force sales in the present
depressed state of trade ; the estimated purchases of the
week are 3,500 hhds. and trs. The Market is rather
inure firm this afternoon. In the Refined Market this
week there has been little alteration ; the wholesale grocers
have been obliged to come to Market for immediate sup-
plies, having no stock ; they however purchased on low
terms, on account of the languid state of trade. For ex-
port there have been few purchases. For packing lumps
there is little or no demand this afternoon, 'nine few pur-
chases, however, have been made from 635. 6i. to 64.5.,
or 295. to 293. 6d. on board, and fine large at 655. In
fine crashed some business was done in April and May
last at Vs. for the Mediterranean, and in lowes of similar
qu ility fur the Baltic at 355. ; since that period prices
have been nominally 335. to 33+. 6,1., and there being no
encouragement front the Mediterranean, the Stocks of the
Refiners (bough only working on a very small scale) haOd
accumulated, thereby enabling the exporters to come in this
we •k at 325. for about 400 hhds. of fine quality, intended to
shipi:e I for Trieste, Leghorn, and Constantinople. The
present prices of lumps are at about a par with those of last
y.•ar ; but referring back to the quotation of the raw ma-
terial, it will be fOund that the Refiners have to pay about
6+. more than in July last. In fine lumps and loaves
there is a steady, though not extensive demand from the
home trade.

EAST INDIA SUGARS.-The only sale of East India
Sugar reported is a small parcel of Siams at 235. a 255. 6d.

ritius sold heavily at rather lower prices, and a large pro-
portion was withdrawn; the brown sold 50s. 6d. to 51s.

FOREIGN SUGARS.-Foreign Sugars art etill held with
much firmness, but there are no sales to report.
COFFEE.-Toe sales of Coffee have been about 800
casks Jamaica; a considerable proportion was taken in
early in the week, but since then the holders hare been
more inclined to meet the buyers, by submitting to a re-
duction in price (which has facilitated sales to some extent),
which is, on the fine qualities, from fine fine ord. 35., and
on triage and ord. 3a. a .ss. (the latter reduction is on ac-
count of extensive supplies being brought forward), good
ord. 70s. and 765., fine ord. 77e. a 785., ord. and triage
625. a 731. The Havannah at public sale was taken in at
prices 2s. lower. There are no transactions by private
contract to report. This day's public sales, 269 hhds. SI
barrels 2,244 bags La Guyra and Porto Meo Coffees,
were all taken in at high prices,---very few offers were
wade ; 36 casks of British Plantation sold at rather higher
prices.

- RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.-The Rum Market
continues very dull ; the purchases are inconsiderable, and
no alteration in [slices can be stated. The home consump-
tion of brandy having become extensive, on account of the
late alarm respecting cholera, the demand in the Market
has improved, but the prices are only a Nhade higher. In
Geneva there are no transactions to report.
TALLOW.--The Tallow Market remains in a languid
state; there is little variation in the prices.
Srsces.—There is little alteration in Spicer; goad Pi-
ins nto sold 6d. and bid. farmer prices.
SA LTPETR.E.-The sties are about! 6,000 begs, past
sold 30s. 6d. a 335. ; there is oot touch doing.

market is very film this afternoon.
t✓ocrtr~t AL.—This d I's public sale 30 bags Cochi-
neal, a parcel of original black grain, and sold from
7.. 3d. a 8, 101. per lb. according to quality, at former
rates ; one bag very interior to the rest was bought in at
Lisa 9d.

consequence of its having been decided that
no reduction in the Customs duty on currants should take
place, there has been rather more inquiry to-day, the
grocers at presen' holding only small stocks; in other de-
scriptions very little doing.
Ivinco —The only transactions reported in Indigo are
small parcels of the Litter part of the India House sale,
which have been taken at sale prices. The Market is
dull.
