1110NEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.
The dealings in the Foreign and Colonial Pro-
duce Markets have been of a more active character
during the last few days. Sugars have been dealt
in to some extent chiefly for home consumption, and
prices have tended upwards for good and fine
grocery qualities. For coffee the demand has been
active for the season, and full prices have been
readily obtained for good and fine descriptions.
Tea, however, has been inactive, owing to the large
quantity announced for public sale during the next
few days. In rice the operations have been to a
fair average extent, and fully late prices have been
sustained In spices and fruit the dealings have been
limited, and no business of importance has been re-
corded in saltpetre. The tallow market has con-
tinued dull, the chief transactions entered into
baying been for forward delivery at barely former
quotations.

There was an increased demand for cotton in
the Liverpool Market yesterday, and prices tended
'upwards. The sales amounted to 25,000 bales.

The Money Market is quiet, and the rates still
show a downward tendency.

the English Stock Market to-day owing to con-
tinued purchases and the abundance of money.
