MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the .London .Anew Price Current of last night.)
SUGAR.—There was not the slightest alteration in the Sugar
Market last week ; the estimated sales were 2,400 hhds. and
trs. ; low brown Berbice 605., and no Sugars except dabs
under that price. The stock of West India Sugar is now
27,385 hhds. and trs., being 14,404 less than last year. The
stock of Mauritius is now 39,237 bags, which is 20,912 less
than last year. The delivery of West India last week was
2,379 hhds. and trs., which is 294 less than last year. The
delivery of Mauritius is 5,094 bags, being 3,577 more than the
corresponding week of 1834.
The Market was this day put into some agitation by the
second edition of a Morning Paper, stating disturbances to
an alarming extent among the negroes, that they would not work
--the news reported to be brought by the West India Packet
this morning. There is no truth in this statement ; the letters
mention that the negroes go on as usual, and as they go into
a minute detail of the intelligence from the islands, the report
met with no credit. The only thing that we can observe is
that there was a great increase of crime among the negroes.
There is no new feature in the Sugar Market this afternoon.
The estimated sales are 700 hhds. and trs., the turn in favour
of the seller, and prices paid which could not be obtained on
Friday. The expected improvement in the Sugar Market this
morning was probably prevented by the dense fog, which has
interrupted business considerably. In Refined there was a
slight improvement last week ; fine Crashed, 425. ; few goods
on show, and a disposition among the buyers to purchase goods
for March. There is the same disposition this afternoon.
MAURMUS.—There were a few purchases of Mauritius
Sugar last week by private contract at full prices ; the public
sales advertised for this day attracted some attention, being
the last parcel left in importers' bands. The public sale of
6,575 bags was postponed till Thursday ; 489 bags of the
new crop sold about previous prices, low soft browns 58s. to
605., coloury soft white 645. to 665. ; another cargo of the
new crop has arrived ; the accounts of the crop are rather fa-
vourable.

EAST INDIA.—The business in East India Sugars last week
was confined to a few parcels of Bengal at former prices, mid.
white at 355. 6d., and a renewed inquiry for Siam Sugars.
FOREIGN.—There were more enquiries for Foreign Sugar
last week ; low soft white Bahias sold at 335., low brown to
fine yellow 263. to 30s. ; mid. yellow Havaunah 355. to
355. 6d. Average price of Sugar 11. 18s. 52d. per cwt.
WYST INDIA MOLASSES.—There is little alteration to no-
tice in West India Molasses ; few parcels are now offering on
the Market.
The total deliveries of West India Molasses from the ware-
houses for the week ending 12th December amount to
3,927 cwt.

COFFEE.—The Coffee Market remains in a very depressed
state, particularly the British Plantation descriptions ; the
great proportion of the supply consisting of ord. and unclean
Jamaica, for which there is little demand, and which gives the
Market a particularly heavy appearance, the great proportion
being usually withdrawn or sold at low prices. The other
purchases consist of 300 bags Ceylon at public sale, which
went off with briskness at very full prices, 595. to 595. 6d.,
and by private contract 200 bags good ord. coloury Brazil
at 525.

The following notice appeared in our Price Current of
Friday last, " Coffee from Sierra Leone.—The Lords of the
Treasury have admitted Coffee from Sierra Leone at the low
duty of 6d. per lb." Agreeably to the above a parcel of 245
bags, per the Jane, on East India Company's conditions, was
this day offered by public sale and went off at 71. ss. to 71. 65.,
duty paid, equal to 90s. in bond, fair good ord. quality.
The total deliveries of Coffee from the warehouses for the
week ending 12th December, are 148,675 lbs. of West India,
and 98,048 lbs. of East India.
COCOA.—The total deliveries of West India Cocoa from
the warehouses for the week ending 12th Dec. are 13,266 lbs.
Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—There is little doing in
Jamaica Rum, as few parcels are now in importers' hands ' • the
late advance is fully maintained. There is more doing in Lee-
wards ; one over has been sold at 2s. 2d., and 12 per cent.
over of very good quality at 2s. 7d. to 2s. Bd. The Brandy
Market is very quiet and lower. In Geneva no business is
reported.
TALLOW.—The Tallow market is rather dull, owing in some
measure to the expected Christmas supply of the home trade ;
the prices are steady.
TOBACCO.—There are no sales to report.
INDIGO.—The market looks firm and healthy, and there is
still a considerable export request ; there appears a wish on the
Continent not to be out of stock ; where parcels are offered at
last sale's prices they meet a ready sale. The total deliveries
of East India Indigo from the warehouses for the week end-
ing 12th December are 36,468 lbs.
SNCES.—At the public sales yesterday the Nutmegs were
nearly all bought in from 7s. Id. to 7s. 2d., a few ord. and
wormy sold at 65., which is rather lower. Amboyna Cloves
bought in at 10d., Bourbon, sold at 9d. per lb. The Mace
was withdrawn, in consequence of a dispute respecting the
duty. In Pepper or Pimento no alteration.
SlLK.—There has been a fair business done in China and
Bengal Silk, and the late prices are well maintained. In the
Italian Market there has been great briskness, and purchases
to a considerable extent have been made at rather impr-Oved
prices.
Woor..—ln the Wool Market there is not much alteration
to notice. Prices are firm, and the trade anticipate that the
public sales which commence on Thnrsday will go off equally
as high as the former sales.
SAL ITETRE. —There is no alteration to notice in Saltpetre ;
there is still a good opinion for an investment. The bustle at

477:

erpool last week, and tilt sales of E,OOO to 6.,(j00 bags,
and the pt cs up to 325. have Brae• effect on this mar Yet.
OiLs.—The Market remains very quiet, very little bu-
siness doing. In Linsco Oil sales have been made up to Julle
at about former quotations.
'fith.--,-The whole of these exteitts.e public s yes finished 00
Friday eVer4ng the following is the find) result :—TLE!
pat 7':a sale eonsisted criffogr millions of pound'sthe /.free
Teas, w EM 'eceded arid followed the India House sale
packs. Of the lour m illions put rip by The Company about 60,0'.
hrs. of Fajen Bohea and 8'20,000 lbs. of Congou were rejcete.o.'
it.Nl free trade Teas about 26,000 packages, or nearts
one-half, hate found buyers. The Company's Fokien Bohea
went off heavily, dna but a large speculation in them by one
blroac a much greater proportion would have been midge!.
Inept no Canton Boheas put up in their sale; at tilt
other sales airy have again fallen. Company's Congous, of
the fine black leaf descriptions, show an advance onb former
prices of 3d. per lb. ; while at the sales which followed they
have again fallen to the rates that ruled previously, and may be
reckoned as being thus much cheaper than the Compaqs'
Common Congous continue very difficult of sale, and but
have found a market. The consumption of Twankays having
somewhat abated, they have, at the Company's and subsequent
sales, fallen Id. to lid. per lb. ; Hysons, on the contrary, arc
in increased demand, both for speculation in anticipation of the
change of duty, and for immediate consumption : this observa-
tion will apply also to Imperials and Gunpowders. Campois,
Souchong and Pekoes have commanded but little attention. ,
The total deliveries of Tea from the warehouses on wilier'
duty has been paid for the week ending 12th Dec., 011
506,012 lbs.
COT Pox.--TIICTR is a better feeling in the Cotton Miu3et
for business, and the Market looks more firm, but the purcha3es
since Friday are incoisiderable.
FKUIT.—This day by nubile sale 2,540 boxes Valencia Rai-
sins 475. to 485., 906 half b;)xe4 ditto 475. to 48s. ; 10 casks
20 boxes Valencia Almonds 87s. to 925. ; the remainder con-
sisted of damaged Fruit.
TURPENTINE.—There are 2,500 barrels of rough Turpentine
in the Market for sale, fcir which 21s. is demanded, but this
price is not likely to be obtained ; the drawers are tolerably
well stocked. Little doing in Spirits, which is usually the
case at this season of the year.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET', DBc. 14.
A fair amount of business has been done to-day, and an ad-
vance on most qualities has been realized of *d. to d, per lb.
The trade to-day has been rather brisk, and the sales have
reached 5,000 bags. The market is unquestionably more
teaciy than it has been for some days.
