MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)

SUGAR.—The Sugar Market has been languid, notwith-
standing the small supplies on sale ; the buyers only purchase
for their immediate wants, in the expectation that the change
of weather will bring large arrivals, the maket in the mean-
time being well supplied with Mauritius Sugar; the estimated
sales of West India Muscovades this week are only 1,600 hhds.
and trs. In Refined Goods there is little doing; the prices
advanced Is. a 2s. early in the week, but the market is since
dull at the improvement. The purchases of low goods for
shipping have been continued, and prices are again higher,
large lumps fetching 645. a 655., but there are scarcely any of_
fering in the market ; in fine goods, also entitled to bounty on
double-refined, rather snore business has been done for pack-
ing, and the refiners demand a further advance.

EAST INDIA SUGARS.-There is more inquiry for this
article, and some business done at improving prices ; on Wed-
nesday about 2,000 bags good strong grey Manilla were done at
255.; a great proportion of the large arrivals of Mauritius no-
ticed last week have been been brought to public sale, which
has had the effect of depreciating the value of mid. and tine
yellow sorts about Is.; browns, from their comparative scar-
city, have maintained their value. The total quantity put up
by auction amounts to 21,361 bags, 2,500 of which were for
exportation only ; the following are the prices of those for
home consumption-fine brown, 595. a 51s. ; ord. grey 51s. a
528. ; mid, grey, 525. a 535. ; fine, 545. a 555.; mid. yellow,
528. 6d. a 535. 6d. ; good yellow, 545.; fine yellow, 555. a 565. ;
fine tine yellow, 595. a 595. 6d. ; the 2,500 bags for exportation
were in very brisk demand, and went from Is. a Is. fal. above
the general valuations; low brown, 18s. ; mid. brown, Ills. ;
fine brown, 21s. 6d. ; washed ditto, 17s. tid. a 18s. 6d. ; soft yel-
low, 20s. tid. a 2'2s. 6d. ; washed ditto, 20s. a 20s. 6d. The above
parcel for exportation only was of inferior colour, and generally
of soft quality. This day's sale, 4,306 bags Manilla, was all
taken in ; some soft grey sold afterwards at 266. This day's
sale of Mauritius Sugar sold Is. lower, making a decline of
per cwt. this week.

FOREIGN SUGARS—By private contract there is at
present nothing offered for sale : consequently the business of
the week has been confined to one public sale of 21S chests and
40 barrels white Pernams; the colour and quality of this parcel
was very superior, and the sale went off briskly, though at prices
below their real value when compared with other descriptions,
such as Mauritius, Manilla, &c. ; a few lots of soft low white
sold at 21s. 6d. ; mid white strong, 22.5.6 d.; good white, 255. 6d.
a 265. tidy; fine white brought in from 28s. 6d. 295. &1., and sold
after the sale at ‘295., being 3s. a 4s. higher than the end of last
year. This day's sale, 610 bags Havannah, the sound was all
taken in. . .

COFFEE—EarIy in the week we had an animated demand
for Coffee, and prices advanced Is. a 2s ; the market has since
been dull, and a considerable proportion of the public sales have
been taken in. The prices of British Plantation Coffee have
been advancing during the week, especially for the ordinary
qualities. In Foreign there is no alteration to notiee, except_
ing that the demand is not quite so brisk as at the end of last
week, when some coloury Brazils were sold by private contract
at GOs. On Wednesday about 400 bags of gold ordinary Bra-
zil were sold from 555. a 565. being about ls. lower. The pub-
lic sales consisted of 241 casks of British Plantation, 2,260 bags
Foreign, and 550 bags East India. Jamaica sold from 83s. a 85s.

price obtained ; several of the importers, however, would not
sell, and withdrew them. Old Valentia raisins sold at 355. Of
Red Smyrna Raisins for exportation, • there have been several
parcels at 6d. per cwt. less, but which is refused. Turkey Figs
of good quality for the home trade are rather more in demand.
