MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)
SUGAR.-The Sugar Market has been very steady all
the week; the estimated purchases are 3,700 hhds. and
trs. ; the prices paid this afternoon are what could not he
obtained early in the week. In the Refined Market there
has been more business doing, but at very low prices.
Refined Sugar is not lower this afternoon, but several
orders have been cancelled since the last slay or two, which
has caused the demand to be very languid, and a small
parcel of ordinary large Lumps was bought yesterday as
low as 605., or 255. 6d. on board. Good small lumps
have been tak,n by our Mclters from 625. to 635. In fine
Crashed there is no alteration, the price being 30s. to
30s. 6d. ; of good quality there is nothing, however, un-
der 30s. 6d. At the close of the Market a large sale of
low Lumps was made at 60s.
EAST INDIA SUGAR.-Some transactions have taken
Place in Siams, at Is. discount on purchases about two
months since. Bengals are also offered at a similar reduc-
tion, but for these there is little or no demand. 6,653
bags Manilla, and 182 bags Siam, at public sale were all
bought in, the former mid. to fine yellow, from 245. a
265. ; the latter, ord. to good white, from 225. a 245.
MAURITIUS SUGAR.-Since last week sales have offered
about 5,000 bags ; the quality was only very middling,
and a great proportion consisted of brown descriptions ;
these sold in some instances rather easier, but yellow and
grey brought steady prices ; the following are the particu-
lars :-Good brown 495. a 49,. 6d., fine brown 505.,
ord. yellow 50s. 6d. ; mid. yellow, Ms. a 51s. 6d. ; good
to fine yellow 525. a 545. ; for exportation only, low to fine
brown 17s. a 19s. 6d. The arrivals consist of 866 bags.
This day's sales, 5,904 bags Mauritius Sugars sold with
much briskness, the prices 6d. per cwt. higher.
FOREIGN SUGAR.-We still continue without any
transactions by private contract, and there being no de-
mand for the small quantity brought to public sale, viz.
118 chests Bahia, the whole was bought in, middling
brown to low middling white, of rather soft quality, from
21s. to 245. 6d. There are no arrivals since last week
from the Brazils. From the Havannah 3,868 boxes have
been reported.
CoFFEE.-Unfavourable accounts respecting the Con-
tinental Markets have increased the inactivity in ours.
The public sales consisted of 152 casks and 63 barrels
British Plantation, and 376 casks and 234 bags foreign.
Berhice, middling, was bought in at 875., good middling
at 945., but after the Sale disposed of at nearly the same
prices ; Jamaica, good ordinary, not clean, sold at 71s. a
725., fine fine ordinary bought in at 81s. The Foreign
was all Cuba, consisting partly of good ordinary, which
was sold at 525. 6d. a Ms., but mostly of middling and
good middling of superior colour, which was bought in at
755. a 804. ; for some of the best 725. was offered after
the sale, but refused, and it is understood that none has
yet been disposed of. The reports at the Custom-house
only amount to 70 casks British Plantation, 568 bags Fo-

COCHINEAL, INDIGO, &c.-This day's public sale 48
bags of Cochineal, 36 of which were mid. to good fair
silvers, and were mostly bought in, no spirit showing itself
to buy this article ; they went from 6s. 6d. a 7e. per lb.,
except one bag very fine silvers, which fetched 7s. 741.,
and one bag exceedingly small sifted graM, and went at
5s 9d. ; 12 bags of good to fine black went from Is. 6d.
a Bs. Id. per lb. ; these were also part bought in. The
market may be considered about 3d. per lb. lower ; 52
w.rons Guatemala Indigo, but a middling parcel, having
scarcely any fine ones amongst them, they sold from 2s. sd.
a 3s. 9d. per lb. ; this article also went off very dull, and
may b, considered rather below the price of the last public
sale ; 99 bags Bombay Safflower Si. 3s. a Si. Is. per cwt.,
all sold ; 12 tons Red Sanders Wood sold from 171. a
17/ 10s. per ton.
