BOROUGH HOP.

The hop market continues quiet, and the value of infe-
rior produce is barely supported. Fine parcels, however,
are firmer in price. Generally speaking, the accounts from
the plantations are favourable.

COLONIAL.
SUGAR.—The dealings have been on a limited scale
without any material change to report in prices. Refined
goods are lower, common, lumps, and titlers being quoted
455. par cwt.
COFFEE.—Business has been rather dull, and Plantation
Ceylon has sold at rather easier rates. Other descriptions
have not varied to any important extent.
Rlcz.—There have been no dealings of importance, and
prices are unaltered.
Corrox.—The Bank rate being still kept at 10 per cont.
has caused increased depression in prices.
TALLOW.—A. strong business has been done for both
present and forward delivery at about previous rates.
P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 44s 6d, and last three months
46s to 47 s per cwt.
GREEN FRUIT.—A dull market for all kinds. The
weather has affected the sale of lemons, some parcels from
Sicily, offered by Keeling and Hunt, at public sale, went at
easier rates. Barcelona nuts reduced in stock, and prices
well supported. Other kinds without buoyancy.

MISSING EMIGRANT SHIP.—The New York Herald
makesthe following statement :—" The American emigrant
ship Monarch of the Seas, which left Liverpool for New
York on the afternoon of the 19th of March last, with a
valuable cargo and 674 passengers, is now, lacking but two
days, four months at sea, and as yet nothing has been heard
of her. The Monarch of the Seas was, without exception,
one of the finest emigrant ships that ever left this port.
She was under the command of Captain Robert Kirkaldy,
a clever and experienced seaman, and was in every respect
a first-class vessel. She was built in this city by Messrs.
Roosevelt and Joyco, in 1854 ; rated A 1 ; was copper and
iron fastened; 1,979 tons burden, 223 ft. in length, 43ft.
breadth of beam, 29ft. depth of hold, and had three full
decks. The missing vessel sailed from Liverpool with
about 1,600 toss of freight."
