MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)
SUGAR.—The demand for Muscovades all the week ha 3
been on a most limited scale : the purchases are estimated
at only 2,000 hhds. and trs. ; the prices are a shade lower.
In the Refined Market there is much heaviness, and the
prices are 6d. to Is. lower where sales have been effected.
but a considerable proportion of the holders refuse to sell.
Of late some considerable purchases have been made for
exportation, but today very little business has been done,
notwithstanding the prices have again fallen from 6d. to
Is. on all descriptions; ord. large Lumps in some ins.asces
brought 60s. and 60s. 6d., which is 2s. lower than at the
highest period about three weeks since. Some large par-
cels of tine crushed have been offered from 31s. a 32s , but
there are no buyers above 30s.
EAST INDIA SUGARS.—The public sales, consisting of
237 bags Siam, 619 Kegs Mauritius, and 373 bags Bengal,
have gone off rather cheaper ; Siam, fine yellow sold fret
20s. 6d. a 215., good white 225. a 235. ; Mauritius, 481
bags sold for exportation. ord. brown to fine yellow 601 d
fr tm 15s. 6d. a 20s. ; 137 bags Mauritius fine yelloW
brought in from 51s. a 525. ; of the Bengal 150 bagsgood
white sold at 265., the remainder bought in from 255.
28s. By private contract nothing has been done.
FOREIGN SUGARS.—In Brazils nothing scarcely hall
been dune. For white llavannah the demand, for this
time of the year, is rather brisk, and these meet a ready
sale, the good sorts at former prices, but low whites have
gone cheaper. The public sales offered 1,917 chests
ffivannah, and 166 chests Brazil ; low white Havannab
sold from 255. a 305., mid. to good 325. a 335. 6d. ;

a 245., 277 chests, 40 brls. Pernams have been entered

sold Is. a 2s. lower ; 50 chests 57 barrels Pernams good
white at 235. tid. ; 1,364 bags Manilla withdrawn, being
out of time.

Cok-rxg.—The great proportion of the Coffee offered at
public sale this week har been withdrawn, as the buyers
would not offer within 20. per cwt. of the former prices.
The parcels of Jamaica and Dernerara sold are about 2s.
lower, the Dominica 3s. lower. The Home Trade being
fully supplied, and the exporters not being inclined to pay
the present expectations of the impmters, nearly the whole
of the quantity offered by public sale was withdrawn at
former prices—viz. 228 casks, 144 bags British Plantation,
460 bags Foreign, 677 bags East India ; Demerara, in
bags sold, triage at 654., fine ord. 83w. a 845., mid.

87e. a 925. ; Jamaica, ord. bought in from 781. a 80s.,

India. This day's public sales 1,108 bogs Brazil, all
taken in 51s. 6d. a 575. 6(1. ; 58 casks Jamaica rold
