MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current of Feb. 6.)
SURAR.—To-day West India Sugar of good and fine yellow
and strong grey descriptions met with free purchasers, and
the rates paid, were, in all cases, 6d above those of Friday;
all other kinds met with a good demand at full, and in some
instances at better prices ; Barbadoes, fine yellow fetched
68s 6d to 70s, good 65s to 665, and mid 63s 6d to 64s 6d per
cwt.

BEMED.—To-day the home trade were large purchasers
of refined goods, and nearl7 cleared the market at higher
prices, standard lumps fetching 76s 6d, and brown lumps 75s
per cwt. In Bastards large sales have been made at 48s to
60s. Pieces made from brown Bengal Sugar sold at 7ls for
fine white, 69s for fine yellow, and 63s per cwt for fair.
Bonded crushed Sugar was taken sparingly, and 25s 6d is the
general value of the best.
MAURITIUS.—The demand has been brisk for bright yellow
and strong refining qualities, which in some cases have
brought rather higher prices ; inferior and brown kinds have
met with attention, and previous rates paid.

lent demand, and 775 bags at aution were sold at stiff prices,

FOREIGN.—The private transactions in yellow Havannah
have been on a more extended scale, but holders have been
compelled to submit to a decline on previous prices of 6d per
cwt. In white there has been nothing done. To-day there
was no public sale of Foreign Sugar ; some disposition was
shown to purchase yellow Havannah, and former rates were
paid privately.

sustained. Bengal Syrup is wanted. To-day very fine
