MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

( From the New London Price Current of last evening.)
SUGAR.—The sales of Sugar have been more extensive this
week, and the prices are again gradually advancing ; the defi-
ciency in the comparative stock with last year is subsiding ; it
is gradually approaching that of last year. The estimated
sales for the week are 5,000 hhds. and trs. ; the advance in
the prices since this day week is ls. per cwt., but it is parti-
cularly to be remarked that it is principally brown Sugars,
which sell at 585., while good and fine Sugars sell at 625. to
635., and the finest Sugars 645. to 655. ; the fine are also
dearer this week. 171 hhds. 8 trs. 37 barrels Trinidad Sugar
by public sale this day sold at the advance we have stated,
brown 58s. and 58s. 6d., low mid. yellow, 595. to 61s.
The accounts from the West Indies by the packet this day
fully confirm our former statement ; the deficiency is consider-
able, but nothing like the monstrous reports circulated in the
market.

Several of the most eminent brokers have cleared off all

their Sugars they had on sale.
The Refined market has risen Is. to 2s. per cwt. ; Lumps
to pass the standard, 845., which was previous 825., and fine
Crashed, 435.

The Refined Sugar market was yesterday nearly cleared of
goods at 83s. and 84s. the long price ; and 425. and 435. for
the short price, and this afternoon the few goods left are with-
drawn by the holders for afurther advance of Is. to 2s. and
85s. and upwards now asked, and the shipping goods to be
ready for a month to come all contracted for. In Grocery
goods there is not so much doing as during the last week.
MAURITIUS.-The public sale yesterday, 4,875 bags mid.
and good colour, but little quality, sold Is. per cwt. higher,
being now approaching West India Sugar in price, having
been lately much lower than the usual proportion; low mid.
yellow and grey, 58s. 6d. and 595. ; good and fine yellow,
60s. to 635.

EAST INDlA—There are few or no sellers at the present
prices.
FortEloN.—lt is stated 700 boxes white Havannah sold 495.
to 50s. ; the last price was 445. In other Foreign no sales
are reported.
WEST INDIA MOLASSES.—The late advance has been fully
maintained, good quality had been bought by private con-
tract at 275. and 28s.

By public sale this day, 483 puns. West India Molasses,
thin poor quality, 265. ; good, 28s. which is ls. higher; for
the fine Barbadoes, 28s. 6d. ; the latter former prices. . .

COFFEE.—There has been a considerable 'bustle in the
market in Foreign Coffee, at an advance of Is. to 2s. ; large
sales of Brazil up to 565. for fine ord., and for dingy ord.
535., which had been previously selling at 51s. ; for good
ord. St. Domingo, 565. There have been large sales, chiefly
to speculators, on the idea that the duty on East India will
be lowered at an earlier date than at present calculated upon,
(it is certainly the common sense of the question) but the
pui chases are not at higher prices; Ceylon in large parcels,
645. and 655. for good quality; inferior, 635. ; Samarang,
48s. 6d. In British Plantation Coffee there is little altera-
tion ; some few lots sold rather lower, but generally there is
no alteration to quote in the prices ; the holders have got up
the prices so high that it prevents business.
The sales of Foreign Coffee by private contract at the
prices we have stated within the last ten days, are about
8,000 bags, chiefly Brazil; about 1,500 bags St. Domingo.
The public, sale this day consisted of 20 casks, 3 bris. un-
clean Jamaica, forming no criterion of the Market prices ;
they sold at full prices.
• This afternoon a cargo of St. Domingo afloat is reported
sold at 545.

Brazil no sales are reported.
Rusi, BaAND7, AND fIoi.LANDs,---There is no change what-
ever in the pi ire of Ruth ; the holders are firm at the late
currency, but there is less enquiry, as the small accumula-
tions of the stock deters the buyers from purchasing for the

present ; the sales reported are quite inconsiderable. 'l3/°'°d,oY

late currency.
