MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
Froni the London Sew Price Current of yesterday.)
SUGAR.—The new arrivals of Muscovadei brought to
.narket this week have been much in demand, but such Is 'the
lesire of the holders to secure the present prices, that they
have pressed forward the sales at a reduction of about Is.
aer cwt. ; the estimated sales are 1,800 hhds. and tees. The
Barbados sale to-day was Is. a Is, lid. lower. This morning there
is a better supply of Sugars, a change of the wind having brought
in many arrivals from the south and west. Mid. Tobago sold
from 15s. fid. a 525., good mid. ditto, 535. ; good Antigua, with
colour, from 545. a 575. The grocers seem inclined to enlarge
heir purchases, but only where the sellers will submit to the
above reduction, and considering the late. large' imports of
Mauritius Sugar, their expectations to buy tin' easier terms
cannot create much surprise, particularly as the little
encouragement the Refiners experience from the com-
parative low prices of their manufactured - goods deters
them from becoming large purchasers. In the Refined market
this afternoon there is little alteration to notice; the quota-
tions are in a great measure nominal. This evening large and
small Lumps remain nominally the same as last week, hut the
Market continuing to be scantily supplied with these sorts, the
Refiners refuse to submit to lower offers ; a few parcels, how-
ever, of good small Lumps and single Loaves were bought by
our melters Is. under former transactions; Rio. fid. was freely
offered for fine crashed at the end of last week, but as the
Refiners generally ask 355. a 3fis. for good quality, the actual
sales are only moderate at 345. ; in the lower qualities
.of
crashed there is also but little doing.

EAST INDIA SUGARS.—There haslonly been one public
sale of 4,801 bags of Mauritius Sugars, which went off at a
decline of Is. on the better sorts, but for the lower descriptions,
from their comparative scarcity, former rates were paid, tine
brown selling from 50s. a 50s. Gd. ordinary strong gray 50s. Gd. a
515., good and fine gray 535. a 535. Gd. ordinary yellow 50s. 6d.
a 515., good yellow 51s. 6d. a s'2s. fine yellow 545. a 545. Gd. The
arrivals are very heavy, 45,030 bags Mauritius; also 17,150 bags
of East India.

1 FOREIGN SUGARS.—This article continues in good
general demand; but as the quantity offering for sale is very
limited, no transactions of any moment have occurred. Tester.
day 338 chests and 130 bris. Pernambuco were put up by public
auction, and, considering the very indifferent quality of nearly
the whole parcel, good prices were obtained, and the sale went
off with considerable animation; very low soft yellowish white
from 21s. a 235., middling ditto soft 245. a 27s.,,goodAitto-soft
275. 6d. a 285., two lots very good white strong 295. a 295. 6d., two
small lots coloury soft yellow 19s. a 20s. The present prices of
Brazil Sugar have advanced since the beginning of this year
about 4s. on browns, and 4s. to ss. on white. Havannahs remain
much the same as regards yellow, but the whites are 3s, a 4;.
dearer. A further advance is very generally expected, owing
principally to very unfavourable accounts lately received from
the Brazils respecting the new crop, which will be far short in
quantity as well as quality, to that of last year. The arrivals
bring 139 cases and 6S brls. Bahia, and 948 boxes Havanna!).
COFFEE.— There have been no public sales of Coffee this
week, but the inquiries by private contract have been consider.
able ; the prices are fully maintained. By private contract
there is little or no demand for British Plantation; the trans.
actions are confined to about 1,500 bags Foreign, which have
changed hands at rother improving prices, good ord. Brazil at
575., fine ord. 595. to 60s. ; St. Domingo, good ord. 58s. to 595.,
and for superior parcels 60s. is reported to have been paid. East
India of low quality is also more in demand, but no parcels are
to be met with under 6d., and these are of very inferior
quality. This morning the market had again every appearance
of inactivity. The arrivals consist of 2,190 bags of St. Do-
mingo, and 8,060 bags East India. This day's public sale 75
casks, chiefly Jamaica mid., taken in at 875., which according
to market prices was worth 905.; the grocers will not purchase
except at lower prices. Foreign is firm, and more sales of good
ord. Brazil at 575.

RUM, BRANDY, AN D DOLL A NDS.—The Rum Market
continues without change, very dull. Brandy is in more re-
quest here; in France the prices have advanced considerably,
on account of the damage done to the vines by frost. In Ge-
neva there is no alteration.

TALLOW.—The Tallow Market is steady.
INDIGO.—The Market is firm, but the purchases are not
extensive; there are few parcels offering for sale. The latest
accounts from Calcutta estimate the crop at 120,000 maunds.
TEA.—The Market remains with very little stirring in it ;
Boheas that cost 2s. are at 34d. to lid. premium, and Congous
at There is nothing doing in Twankays and Hysons.
SILK—The Silk Market continues lively, and Thrown
Silks find ready sale; prices remain steady.
COCHINEAL—By public sales of Cochineal yesterday 84
bags were advertised, only about one-third were sold at flora
par to 3d. under the last sale; the remainder were bought in.
TOB A CCO.—In Tobacco there are no sales of any extent to
report.

OlLS.—Sperm Oil is rather lower, on account of extensive
arrivals.

COTTON—The sales this week are 400 Surat, ord. 4
good 314 d.
