ternoon, low Lumps 605., Molasses 6d. lower.

TEA.-The orders from the country are coming up
well. In the Market there is no alteration since the sale ;
about one million pounds weight of Tea was refused at the
East India House Sale, under the impression that as the
Company reduce their upsetting price in March next Teas
will be lower.

COFFEE.-There was little alteration in Coffee list
week. The demand, as usual at this season of the year, is
very limited, and the market is rendered still more heavy,
by the political and military events of Holland and Belgium.
The ordinary sorts of East India are rather lower. Brazil
is also very heavy. St. Domingo is scarce, and maintains
a high proportion to the other descriptions-575. a s'7s. 6d.
for good quality ; Ceylon Ms. In British Plantation de-
scriptions there is little alteratio❑ in price. The Market
has been heavy, and a considerable proportion of the public
sales have been taken in on account of the languid state of
trade. This day's public sale, 4 casks 533 bags damaged
Havannah, 40s. a 495., as to quality, forming no criterion
of Market prices. There are no purchases by private
contract reported.
