MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of last evening.)
SUGAR.—The supply of West India, Sugar last week was
very indifferent, chiefly of the inferior descriptions, and the
buyers only purchase for their immediate wants for consump-
tion, the sales were estimated at 2,200 hhds. the holders
took advantage of the small supply of good Sugars, and
obtained an advance of 6d, per cwt. on the prices. The
stock of West India is now 10,036 hhds. and trs., being 4,421'
more than last year. The stock of Mauritius 111,528 bags,
being 40,757 more than last year. The delivery of West India
2,223 hhds. and trs., being 1,231 more than last year. The
delivery of Mauritius 9,602 bags, being 524 more than the cor-
responding week of 1834. This morning the show of West
India Sugars appears to be of a worse description than any
day previously, in some of the principal brokers only one
or two boards of low brown Sugar appear ; the trade are out of
stock, and where any parcels approaching to good quality ap-
peared they found ready buyers. The sales, including the
Barbadoes 139 hhds., are 600 hhds. asd trs., filo latter low to
fine yellow 545. 6d. a 605., rather dearer, and the market
generally may be stated 6d. a Is. per cwt. higher than on this
day week. The Refined goods continued scarce last week,
quite inadequate to the demand, which was considerable for
export : rather higher prices were paid, particularly for fine
Crashed. The sales were chiefly at the long price 745. 6d.
and 745. 9d.—the holders asked 755. ; the purchases at the
short price, chiefly at 335. ad. The grocers took small par-
cels for the home consumption at steady prices. Such was
the scarcity of Refined, that the buyers contracted for goods
to be ready three weeks and a month hence, at the prices we
have stated. This afternoon the scarcity of Refined goods is
still more apparent, and contracts for forward delivery are more
freely offered about the present prices. The Market is again
rather higher ; 345. paid for fine .Crashed, and also 755., the
long price. The grocers still buy goods for the home supply
on a very limited scale for immediate consumption.
MAURITIUS.--The public sales of Friday, 7,377 bags Mau-
ritius, went off with briskness at an average advance of 6d. per
cwt. The Refiners were still considerable buyers, on account
of the scarcity of good West India Sugars. By public sales
this day, 8,963 bags Mauritius Sugar sold—low grey, 51s. ;
yellow, 525. a 61s. : all sold at former prices, except the good
qualities, which are again 6d, per cwt. higher.
EAST INDIA.--There were no sales of East India Sugars of
any extent reported last week. By public sale this day 154
baskets 255 bags Batavia went off at full prices.
FOREIGN.—The enquiries for Foreign Sugar were very con-
siderable last week, but the actual sales were chiefly in white
Havannah Sugar 345., and a cargo sold at the same price.—
Average price of Sugar, 11. 9s. 3d. per cwt.
COFFBE.—There were no purchases of any consequence last
week, but the market had a firmer appearance, buyers could
not purchase East India or Foreign, within ls. a 2s. of what
they could have done the preceding week, no parcels pressed
on the market ; two parcels of Ceylon sold 555. 6d., coloury
Brazil 525. In British Plantation descriptions the only pur-
chases were good ord. Jamaica and Triage for immediate con-
sumption at full market prices. This days public sales 488 bags
Sumatra Coffee sold briskly 395. 6d. a 41s. full prices, 503
bags Batavia ord. 525. a 525. 6d., good ord. yellow 555. a 575.
Isold, 53 bales Mocha 955. a 106 s.
RUN, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The Rum market is very

firm, the stocks particularly of Leewards are so very low that
the sales continue confined to small parcels from the stocks of
the dealers at rather higher rates than the market prices, some
Jamaica 32 and 33 over sold at 3s. Id. The purchases of old
Brandy are not large, but they are higher ld. to 2d. per gal-
lon ; in the other descriptions there is no alteration. Geneva
is steady, pale about 2s.
TALLOW..—Th• Tallow market continues firm, and the
transactions for home consumption extensive, 375. 3d. has been
paid for parcels on the spot, and there are now no contracts
offering at 38s. for forward delivery.
IRISH PROVISIONS.—The shippers of prime singed Bacon
continue to hold for 365. on board, while the price landed is
from 345. a 355. ; the trade here will not yet purchase for for-
ward shipments. Butter has continued in good demand ;
Stock of Irish not much above one-third of this time last sea-
son. Lard dull at 465. a 48s. landed.

at steady prices, the purchases since are about 1,200 bags
chiefly Surats at former rates, and a few Boweds and Madras,
Surats reached 94d., which is the highest price yet realised.
WooL.—The late sales of Wool which took place last week,
the prices obtained were on the average 2d. per lb. advance
on last January sales, the prices obtained for Van Diemen's
Land and Cape were satisfactory to the merchants. The de-
mand for Wool still continues, the late shipment to America
has caused a scarcity of Spanish Wool.

off briskly at 241. 10s. up to 271. 10s. for very sweet and pale,
which is an improvement of 11. per tun.—The export demand
for Linseed Oil continues, and sellers require 455. 6d., which
it is probable will be obtained before the new supply of Seed
arrives.—Rape Oil may be stated a shade dearer.—Olive Oil
remains without alteration.

TURPENTINE.—There is no alteration in rough, nor auy &-
rivals. There is but little business doing in Spirits.
