buyers, having lately kept no stork, were eager to pur-
chase, and came forward at au unusually early hour, taking
all the West India Muscovades that offered, at the former
prices ; the holders immediately asked an advance, which
checked the market, but at the close of the day the esti-
mated sales were 1,800 Weds. and tea., at the advance of
18. per cwt. In the Refined Market there was little bull-
