MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the New London Price Current of last Evening.)
SUGAR.—. There was great briskness in the Sugar market
last week, the estimated purchases were 4,000 hhds. and tres.,
at prices 6d. to Is. per cwt. higher; brown to low middling
St. Lucias sold at 595. to 625. 6d. ; the &o'er market was
strengthened by a report of a hurricane at Barbadoes on the
3d September, which is since fully confirmed ; but it has
proved more disastrous than at first believed, it had reached
Antigua and the neighbouring islands, and has done much
damage to the young canes.
The estimated sales this day arc 1,100 birds. and trs. The
request appears to be checked by the advance asked this morn-
ing ; the Barbadoes sale 100 birds. went off 6d. to Is. higher,
635. Gd. to 665. 6d. ; one hhd. very fine, 755. At the close
of the Market the prices may be considered 6d. per cwt. higher,
and no brown Jamaicas to be had under 60s.
The attention of both buyers and sellers of Sugar is in-
tensely placed upon the stock of Sugars, with the comparative
supply of last year ; the deficiency is now so great that it can-
not he made up with any arrivals that may take place before
Christmas, and in consequence higher prices are again de-
manded this morning, and several extensive buyers were in-
clined to take the whole. stock of the brokers at last week's
prices, but the offers were refused, arid it is impossible for the
country trade to keep up retailing of Sugars at 6d., 60., or
even 7d. per lb. ; the rise has checked the consumption lately,
and nothing shows a greater scarcity of Sugars in the country
more than the late determined resistance to the rise, but which
is overpowered by the short import.
The Refined market last week, both in the demand and in
prices, greatly improved ; large sales of Lumps to pass the
standard were reported at 81s. Gd. and fine Crushed on board
at 40s. 6d. ; but afterwards there were considerable buyers,
but no sellers under 82s. and 41s.
The stock of West India Sugar is now 43,122 hhds. and
trs., being 17,219 less than last year. The stock of Mauri-
tius is now 63,236 bags, which is 9,366 than last year. The
delivery of West India last week was 3,413 hhds. and trs.,
which is 699 more than last year. The delivery of Mauritius
is 3,364 bags, being 210 more than the corresponding week
of 1834.

last week.

COFF EE -The British Plantation Coffee market continued

brisk request and sold higher. In East India there was little
alteration, and few purchases were reported. There was little

steady; proof Leewards, still buyers at 2s. Id. ; but the chief
sales are in Jamaicas, the latter prices fully maintained. In
Brandy or Geneva there is no new feature.
This afternoon a parcel of Demerara Rum, 31 and 32 over,
sold at 3s. Id.
IRISH PROYISIONS.--The holders of Butter are still very
sanguine, as the demand continues very good, and shippers
decline making offers. Stocks reducing very low. The pur-
chasers of Bacon will only buy for immediate wants, and re-
fuse to enter into time contracts, which, with the low prices of
every descriptions of fresh meat, we think the Cheesemongers
are quite right. Prime Carlow Butter, 803. to 86s. ; Wa-
terford, 745. to 765. ; Limerick, 775. to 78s. ; Cork, 80s. to
81s. landed ; Scotch Pork, 38s. to 425. ; Irish Pork, middles,

RATTANS.—This day's quotation, As. 6d. a Bs. per 100.
TALLOW.—The Tallow market was heavy and at rather
lower prices, but the accounts of the total failure of the fishery
gave some animation to the market yesterday—the prices were
rather higher.
SlLK.—Since the conclusion of the India House Sale on
Thursday, the market has been steady, and the advances on
the prices well maintained.
WooL.—The German descriptions of Wool continue in re-
quest, and the prices appear to be on the advance ; all other
descriptions are without variation.
FRUIT.—This day's public sale damaged Valentia Raisins
40s. to 425., sweaty 445. to 455.. boxes 90s. taken in ; Mus-
catels in layers 765. to 905., qr. 103 s. damaged half and quar-
ter 60s. to 765.

COTTON.—The Cotton market continues in a languid state;
the sales since Friday are too inconsiderable to enumerate ; the
prices are nominal.
SPICES.—The transactions in Pepper last week were on a
limited scale at former prices. Above 1,000 bags of Pimento
have lately been offered by public sale, but the demand was
languid, and a large proportion was taken in ; a purchase of
400 bags was reported at 4fd. to 44d., nearly former rates.
INDIOO.—The Indigo market is in a most wholesome and
satisfactory state, the greater proportion of the quantity brought
forward has passed the sales, nearly the whole has been dis-
posed of, not a chest was taken in yesterday ; the demand
continues general and extensive, and the prices steady.
SIXTH DAY'S SALII.-882 chests have passed the sale this
day. Except a parcel of about 150 chests bought in, in
July 1835, put up again in this sale, and mostly bought in, the
sale proceeded briskly, and full as high as any previous day,
the consuming qualities being still the favorite. About 170
chests are bought in this day. The total quantity passed the
sale up to this evening is 5,359 chests. The ord. and mid.
qualities reaching last sale's prices, the fine 2d. lower.
The total deliveries of East India Indigo from the ware-
houses for the week ending 24th inst. are 62,243 lbs.
INDIGO AND COCHINEAL—. Sales this day—the Guatemala
Indigo sold 3d. per lb. higher than the 14th inst ; the Cochi-
neal of good quality at former prices, the mid. and ord. 4d. to
2d per lb. lower.
Rlcs.—There are no public sales of Rice to report ; by
private contract 4,000 bags low to good white Bengal sold
10s. Gd. to 13s. Gd., full prices.
OlL.—The Oil trade was yesterday thrown into the greatest
consternation by accounts from the Greenland Fishery, which
is almost a total failure ; the accounts reach to the 4th of Oc-
tober; 30 English ships have only caught 40 fish, and 40
Scotch vessels had 105 fish, making in all about 1,700 tuns
old measure ; the vessels in Melville Bay had not reached the
fishery grounds on account of the large barriers of ice.; this
created such confusion in the market that it is impossible for

us to give any correct quotations. All common Oils as vie
as Seed have advanced considerably in consequence of the
falling off, and holders generally are unwilling to name price.
The Hull reports state the estimate produce of the fishery to
be about 2,000 tuns. The public sale of Friday, 60 tuns 141n1
Oil of good quality sold 30s. 6d. to 30s. 9d.
TEA.—Since the large sales which finished on Friday, neve;
ral parcels that were bought in have taken by the trade, an"
and upon the whole the market shows more firmness. The
total deliveries of all descriptions of Tea duty paid from the
warehouses for the week ending- 24th inst., are 482,859 lbs.
TURPENTINE.-There are no parcels of Rough Turpentine
on the market; the last arrival, 500 barrels, came direct to
drawers; any parcel of good would realize 20s.
Hops.-Worcester market, on Saturday, was again 6.9:
higher, and ours for Sussex pockets in consequence very brisa
Choice Hops, of colour and quality, go off rapidly, and the
supply of them is very short indeed. Sussex pockets (10M
SOs. to 955. ; Weald Kent ditto, SOs. to 955. ;
ditto, 100 s. to 1475. ; East Kent ditto, 105 s. to 1475. ; Enis,
Kent bags, 955. to 140 s. ; Mid Kent ditto, 90s. to 114'
Duty estimated at 250,0001. Mid Kent
