MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

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

SUGAR.—The demand for Muscovades has been
steady and extensive, and as the holders are very firm in
demanding advanced prices, on account of the extensive
home consumption and the favourable reports of the
Foreign Markets, a further rise of Is. per cwt. has been
obtained this week ; no brown Jamaicas under 525., and
very few parcels from any other colony under that price,
and 60s. have been paid for the fine; the chief purchases
are 535. a 555. The estimated sales this week are 3,500
hhds. and trs. In the Refined market there has been
much firmness at a further advance of Is. per cwt., on ac-
count of the advance of raw Sugars, and more favourable
accounts from the Continent; fair Lumps 645., fine
crushed als. a 31s. 6d. ; the Grocers are also doing more
business in fine goods for the home consumption of the
country. This afternoon the demand for Lumps having
continued, and the quantity on band being only small, a
further advance in price has been given, and it would be
difficult now to make purchases of the ordinary descrip-
tions at the lowest quotation: for other qualities also there
has been an improved demand, and prices generally must
be stated to be about Is. per cwt. higher.
EAST INDIA SUGARS.—By private contract there con-
tinues to be but a limited demand, but at the public sales
rather more animation was evinced, and 1,157 bags Siam
and 200 bags Manilla found buyers at steady prices, the
form -r from 21s. a 21s. 6d. for good yellow to fine white:
the Manilla, fair yellow, sold at 225. 6d.

MAURITIUS Suomt,..—The public sales this week have
again been numerous, offering about 6,000 bags, by which
means nearly the whole of the quantity remaining in the
hands of the Importers has been disposed of. We have to
notice a further improvement of ls. 6d. ; the following
were the prices paid yesterday morning ;—Fine brown,
51s. 6d. a 525. ; tine fine brown, extra strong, large
grain, 525. 6d. a 53a. 6d. ; low soft yellow, 525. a 525.
6d. ; low middling yellow, 539. ; good yellow, 51.. 6d. a
555. 6d. ; fine yellow, 565. ; and one lot fine fine
yellow, 589. The only parcel newly landed consists of
1,178 bags (returned from Bremen), which of course can
only be sold for exportation. The delivery last week
for home consumption was 4,787 bags. The stock in the
Docks up to the 24th November consisted of 68,657 bags,
making a deficiency of 13,725 bags compared with that of
November, 1831.

FOREIGN SUGARS.-The only sales of Foreign Sugar
are 300 casks brown Bahia at 20s. a 235., averaging 215.,
