MARKET INTELLIGENCE .

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)
SUGAR. —The demand for British Plantation Musco-
v ides has been steady all the week ; the purchases are con •
siderable ; they are estimated at 3,300 hhda. and trs. ;
the prices are without the slightest alteration; the sales
would have been more considerable, as the trade are with-
out stock, had it not been the calculation that the supplies
on Tuesday next will be extensive, on account of the re-
cent arrivals. In the Refined Market there is more firm-
nese, on account of the small stock at market ; purchases
cannot be made on such low terms as during the last week.
—Some business was done last week in large Lumps, at
645. or 295. 6d. on board, but since then 645. 6d. has
been paid for similar quality ; 31s. 6d. is offering for fine
Crashed, and 325. for delivery in a month; these prices,
however, have been refused. Although the prices of the
raw article have been rather declining of late, while
Refined goods have been meeting a more ready sale, and at
an advance of Is. on low goods, and treacle and bastard
Sugars are admitted by refiners to bring fair prices, still
there appears to be no encouragement for them to work
to any extent; the Market, therefore, for the present, is
likely to continue with a short supply.
EAST INDIA SUGARS.—The purchases by private con-
tract are 600 bags yellow to mid. white Siam 205.. a 235.
6d. ; 750 bags Manilla 225. a 235. 6d.
MAURITIUS SUGARS.—The sales this week (till this
day) were confined to small parcels for home use, at former
prices. This day by public sale 7,544 bags Mauritius,
from 495. a 585., all sold brisk and full prices.
FOREIGN SUGARS.—There have been no sales of Fo-
reign Sugars; 275. have been refused for a good parcel of
yellow Havannah. At public sale 83 chests mid. to good
white Pernams were taken in Is. 6d. above the Market
prices, 265. a 30s.
COFFEE.—The British Plantation Coffee has sold
nearly on the same terms as last week, the fine qualities, a
shade lower, the ord. a shade higher. In Foreign or
East India few transactions are reported. The purchases
by private contract are a small parcel of Brazil at 605.,
and 200 bags. fine ord. coloury Laguira 645. ; 58s. has
been refused Mr Batavia, and 595. for pale St. Domingo.
At public sale 711 casks 101 bags Jamaica, good and fine
ord. 78s. a 81s. 6d. ; Havannah, low to fine ord. 635. a
64E6—This day by public sale 110 casks British Planta-
tion, all withdrawn ; 314 bags Havannah, fine to fine fine
ord. from 635. to 685., all sold, about former prices ; 236
bags Brazil, good ord. coloury all taken in at 595., rather
lower.

RUM, BRANDY, AND Hord.ailDs.---In Rum there is
little variation. Brandy still in good demand for the home
trade. In Geneva no transactions of any consequence re-
ported. By public sale 118 puns. Rum from St. Tho•
mas's, for exportation only, average strength from 1 to 4
over, sold at Is. 6d.
TALLow.—The prices of Tallow are a shade lower;
the Market is dull at the decline.
Lusa PROVISIONS.—The parties connected with the
Irish trade were thrown into the greatest state of alarm and
confusion yesterday, by its being discovered that a clause
has been smuggled into the New Duty Act, by which fo-
reign provisions may be warehoused here free of duty for
exportation, or for the use of ships outward-bound; this
will completely destroy the great provision trade with Ire-
land. The Butter Market continues in the same depressed
state as noticed in our last, but with very little fluctuation
in prices ; fine Friesland at the quay may be quoted 84s.
a 869., and Leer, Emden, &c. 70s. a 89s. per cwt., as to
quality; Limerick we nominally quote '79s. on board, 80s.
a 82s. landed; Cork 78s. on board, 80s. landed; Water-
ford (as to repute of brands) 745. a 78s. on board, 765. a
80s. landed, and Carlow 78s. a 81s. on board, 78s. a 83s.
lauded ; Newry is still offering for shipment at 744., and
Dublin at 765. on board, without finding purchasers.—
Prime fresh small singed Bacon meets a ready
sale at 545. a 555., but the general run of Waterford
cannot be quoted over 51s. a 535., nor Limerick over
50s. a 525. per cwt. landed. Bale and tierce Middles, as
well as Bladder Lard, sell slowly at our last quoted
prices, but for fine small Limerick Hams there is a fair de-
mand at 765., although Belfast cannot be quoted over
569. a 645. per cwt.—ln Beef and Pork very little busi-
ness doing, and by an Act of Parliament, which only
A— ....I. a. oso, at.. Dish Provi-
sion Trade is likely to be seriously affected (as far as re-
gards Beef and Pork in particular), by the taking off cer-
tain restrictions upon the export of foreign provisions in
bond from this country, and which heretofore existed as a
protection to the Irish trade.

RICE.-About 1,200 bags good Bengal white sold
15s. 6d. a 165., former prices.
INDIGO.—There is little alteration in the prices, or in
the demand for Indigo. It is expected the next sa'e
will consist of 7,000 chests. In addition to the declara-
tion for the sale at the East India House, ou the 2d of Oc-
t )ber, there is a further declaration this week of 1,310
chests, including the parcel withdrawn at the July sale.
The sale is expected to be about 7,000 to 8,000 chests,
but it is toe early yet to speak with any certainty as to the
extent of it. There is nothing whatever doing in the
article.

DRUGS, DYES, &c.—.At the East India House.—Lac
Dye—The Market continues much depressed ; 32 chests
of the marks C and E and M B sold at the East India
Company's sale this morning at is. per lb. Safflower—
A parcel of S 6 bales fair quality sold this morning at
6/. 10s. a 11/. per cwt. ; the small stock of this article
makes it go off pretty freely when there is any brought for-
ward for sale. Cochineal—Some few small parcels haste
been taken for the St. Petersburgb market at about 7s.
per lb. for Silvers; the article? however, continues in a
very dull state. . . _

HOPS.—The duty fluctuates violently ; early in the
week it rose to 160,0001., then to 105,0004 ; to-day it is
115,0004

TO A CCO• —The Market continues dull ; offers are made
for cargoes at low prices, but they are not accepted.
TEA.—Boheas, in large chests, are at 3F. 1O d. per 11.
duty paid, while Congou chests have become scarce in
the market at 4s, per Ib. The demand fiT other sorts
continues limited.

',ann.—There has been a little business doing in Va-
lentia Raisins at the peicea quoted, and a few small parce!a

of red Smyrna Raisins have been taken off; Currants alio
continue to be inquired after, and the holders are very fia
in their prices.
SALTPETRE.--:Saltpetre is rather higher, 338. a 358.,,
Smcirs.—There are more inquiries for Pepper, at sr
About 700 bags of Pimento have sold at former price
ordinary and middling SP. a 6P. This day by publi
sale, 201 bags Pimento, 6d. a 61d., all bought in. Thi
day, by public sale, 98 barrels Ginger, all sold from 51.59
to Si. Ss.

The amount of stamps paid on marine instli
rance in the year ending Jan. 5, 1832, was, in LandoM:
169,0171. 1.. 3d ; in Great Britain elsewhere, 53,8061'
13s. 3d ; in Ireland, 2,6691. Bs. 2d.

On Wednesday, on the Woodbridge estate,
St. James', Clerkenwell, and adjoining the new-intend
line of street, from Farringdon-street to Islington, was lard
the foundation stone of Woodbridge chapel, by the Ref'
EDWARD ANDREWS, LL.D. of Walworth, from design;
by THOMAS PORTER, Esq. architect, for the church and
congregation of the late St Bartholemew chapel, under
the pastoral care of the Rev. RICHARD Luxix, when 01
energetic and talented oration was delivered by the Rev
EDWARD ANDREWS.

Nothing can present a more extraordinary
appearance than the remains of the stone work of the old
London Bridge. The workmen are employed, day 101
night, throwing the stones, as they loosen, and hoist the
up with levers, into lighters. About one half of the river ill
cleared, and the tide flows of course with less rapiditY
than it did before the removal of the arches. The vie°.
from the parapet of the new bridge is interesting. It tg,
not yet ascertained what effect the removal of the piers 0`
the old bridge will have upon the ebb and flow.
COLTING MAGISTRATES.--The practice
of coking Magistrates, which has existed from time ins"
memorial, as will be seen by the following extract from A
letter addressed to the Clerk of the Peace for the counti
of Essex to the Chairman of the respective benches
throughout the county, is about to be discontinued
" At the last General Quarter Session it was, after dinner,
proposed that the custom of celting, hitherto in practice:
shall he abolished, and that each Magistrate, on the first
dining with the Justices at Quarter Session, shall bee;
pected to advance the sum of six guineas towards a fen
for providing rood wine ; and that, on the first day of died
next General Session, such proposal shall be discussed In

ears were saluted with the cry of a pack of hounds, 03'1
soon after crossing the road in the rear, caught scent .3
the " four in hand," and commenced a new kind of chase,
with " breast high" alacrity. The novelty of the Beene
was rich beyond description : in vain did his LordshiP,
' exert all his charioteering skill—in vain did his well-trainea
grooms energeticaly endeavour to ride before them; rein',
trammels, and the weight of the carriage, were of n,
effect, for they went with the celerity of a whiriviin.o
and this modern phaeton, in the midst of his electrical
vibrations of fear, bid fair to experience the fate of his
namesake. Luckily, however, his Lordship had been
accustomed to drive this set of fiery-eyed steeds" to the

the stags, the phaeton, and his Lordship, were all hasten"

appeased in full cry at the gate.
