MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current, July 2.)
SUGAR.—To-day the rates obtained for West India
Sugar were in almost every instance equal to those of
Friday, but refiners or grocers were little disposed to do
business. The purchases extend to only 312 hhds,
including at auction 150 hhds 13 trcs Barbadoes, which
went at full terms for good and fine, but at 64 per cwt
decline for other sorts; low yellow sold at 36s 6d,
middling 37s to 38s 6d, good 39s to 40s, fine and supe-
rior 4I s 6d to 435.

REFINED.—To-day reEted goods were operated in
with caution for home trade purposes, still brown gro-
cery lumps were not to be obtained under 493 per cwt.
Crushed is in better request for expartation, and prices
are firm; sales of British made at 23s to 293 he: cwt.
Marinmus.—Thi4 afternoon Mauritius met with little
attention, and former rates were barely supported. At
a public sale of 3,672 bags, good and fine brown went at
33s to 345. low to good yellow 34s 6d to 375, and good
grainy yellow 40a to 40s 6d per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Bengal
Sugar offered at public sale amounted to 3,494 bags—
the better sorts of white Benares sold at firm rates; fine
and good realised 39s to 42s 6d but of othe,r kinds a small
portion orly found buyers at barely former terms—low
and middling white at 37s to 38s 6d, damp 36s to 41s 63,
good and fine soft yellow 35s to 375.
FOREIGN.—To-day there was no public sale of foreign
Sugar, and the private purchases were of little moment,
still former rates are supported, and holders have con-
fidence.
MoLAssEs.—There are sellers of West India upon
rather lower terms, still operations have been small, add
do not exceed 200 puns of new Antigua at 16s to 16i 63
per cwt. The stock remains large, and deliveries fill
short of last year. The value of East India and Mau-
ritius is 12s to 13s, at the same time, however, few
buyers are to be met with.
CocoA.—The market is firm for West India, and sup-
plies are small, but dealers are not much disposed to
operate. At suotior: 813 bags of Grenada were sold at
38s to 41a per cwt. Foreign met with little attention, at
the same time full terms are insisted on; and at auction
200 bags were taken in at 28s to 28s 6d per cwt for Para
and Guaysquilt. The stock of Cocoa is not so large as
of late, and deliveries are extending.
COME.—This afternoon Plantation Ceylon Coffee
was in good request, and former rates were well sup-
ported. At auction 244 casks and 65 bags all sold;
middling realised 54s to 565, low middling 52s to 539 6d,
fine and fine ordinary 47s to 51s, good ordinary 463 6d,
triage 43s to 45s per cwt. There were several inquiries
atter Native, but business is checked by the reluctance
of holders to sell, and good ordinary cannot be obtained
under 43s 6d.

TEA.—Only moderate purchases have been made in
good and fine Congou, still holders are firm, and require
fully former rates; there is also a less amount on offer,
with every prospect of a brisker trade existing shortly. The
value is is Id to Is 8d per lb, and at which there are not
free sellers. For common and good ordinary Congou the
home trade demand is still brisk, and prices have further
advanced id per lb, sales having been made at lOid to
Ild. In Medium kinds operations are upon a more
extended scale, at llid to is O'd; and these are better
prices, whilst on the part of holders there is much firm-
ness. In Green considerable purchases have been made,
and the rates paid are Id to 2d above those current pre-
viously, but the low and mid sorts have been most in
request. Several parcels of tea have been taken on
Liverpool account. Scented and Pekoe teas find a more
ready sale at fully the former value. At auction 8200
pkgs were offsred, and 4100 sold, 900 of which ccn-
siated of Assam, and went with spirit.
RICE.—To-day there was a fair demand for Rice, but
holders are compelled to accept former rates. At
auction 3,367 bags Bengal were nearly all sold; fine
white went at lls 6d to 12s, good 100 to lOs 6d, mid-
dling 9a 6d, and damaged 7s 6d to lOs 6d. Of
Sago 311 bags were sold, but at rather lower
terms, mid and good large pearl went at 19s to 20s Gd,
and damaged 18s to 18s sd. Sago is cheaper, and 113
bags went at is 6d for common dingy. At auction 130
packoges part sold; St. Vincents Gd to 70, Grenada 3d
to 3id, S. Kitts 3.1; 78 packhges Tons lea Mois 2kki to
lid, and Grenada 21 to 2d; 76 pkgs Tapioca 3d to 4d
P r lb. _

47czs —To-day at public sale 433 bags of African
Gmitar sold at full rates; middling and good realized
27s to 85%, and damaged 32s to 365 6d, but 52 cases of
o.itnrnon cultivated sound Malabar taken in at 355. Of
white Pepp,r 46
bags sold a, 41,1,d to 441 for oidinily
dingy, and 4 auk, Dutch Limed Nutmegs taken in ;;,t
2a 8d por lb.

SPlRlTS.—Previous terms are well supported for
Jamaica Rum, and there has been a good home and ex-
port demand. The sales are 300 puns, 33 to 35 pa:
cent over-proof at 2s 6d to 2s 9d, better sort 32 to 39
over 2s 10d to 3s 4d, superior 3s 6d to 4s,
and a few cloudy 24 per cent over at 2s 4d per
gallon. Operations in Demerara are upon a large scale,
and amount to 500 puns at 2s Id to 2s 2d for 33 to 42
per cent over. Leeward Island has been in good de-
mand, and holders evince firmness. The purchases are
300 puns at is 4d to is 4id proof, with small parcels of
brown at is sd. There are several buyers of East India
at is 3d proof, but not many parcels are to be ob-
tsined. Brandy has not improved in value, yet a
fair business has been done. Cognac best brands of the
vintage of 1849 realized 4s 5d to 4s 7d, 1848 ditto 4s 6d
to 4s Bd, 1847 ditto 5s 2d to 53 4d, and inferior sorts
2s 8d to 4s 3d per gallon. Geneva has been purchased
with caution at is 7d to is Bd, and fine 2s to 3s. The
value of British made Spirit is 9s 4d, with only a mode-
rate demand. _

INDlOO.—The market remains firm for East India,
still only limited purchases have been made by shippers
or home dealers, but the rates of the last quarterly sale
are well supported. For auction on the 9th the quan-
tity has been increased 12,225 chests, of which 10,400
are new goods. A fair demand exists for Spanish, and
former prices aro obtained.
CGCHINEAL.—This afternoon the market for Cochi-
neal was quiet, and former rates are barely supported.
Of 73 bags offered at auction a part only sold, Honduras,
ord and mid silvers at 3s 8d to 3s 9d, mid black 4s; Te-
neriffe, silvery black 3s Iod to 3s I Id, and Mexican sil-
vers 3s 8d to 36 9d.

SALTPETRE.—An increased demand has been experi-
enced for Rough, and the private operations are 8,000
bags at hilly former rates ; indeed in some cases a small
advance has been obtained. The value is from 25e 6d
to 27s 6il for low to fine 12 to 3 per cent refrac-
tion. Holders have confidence, and offered none at
auction, although there is a much larger stock than
at this time last year, but deliveries continue of a satis-
factory nature. The value of British Refined is 29s to
29s 6d, and a good demand exists. Nitrate of Soda is
dull of sale at 14s to 143 6d. Ashes are still purchased
with caution, Canada I'ot, first sort 293, and Pearl 283.
TALLow.—The transactions in Russian on the spot
have been of little moment, and previous terms are sup-
ported with difficulty- There are sellers of fine P. Y.
Candle at 36s 6d to 36s 93, and of inferior
sorts at 31 to 6d per cwt less. Not much
has been transacted for delivery in the last
three months of the year, and the rates accepted are
37s 6d. Home melted is offered at 35s to 35s 6d nett
cash, but has been only in limited request, and there is
no decrease of supply. Of other sorts the quantity on
offer exceeds dealers' wants, and previous terms are
supported with difficulty. At auction 218 casks
Sydney were in rare soil at 34s to 353 6:1, and low 323
64 to 33s 2d; 519 packages South American. low to fine
32s 6d to 37s 3d, and 26 casks wrecked P.Y. Candle
34s 3d to 35e 3d per cwt. For public competition
1,300 packages are declared.
OILS.-1 he transactions in Rape Seed Oil have been
limited, and prices are on the decline, British refined is
to be obtained at 36s to 36s 6d, brown 34s to
35r, and Foreign pale at 37s per cwt. There
are sellers for delivery rather under these rates.
In Linseed Oil a large business has been cencluded,
arel prices continue to advance, saes having been
made at 31s 6d to 325, and there are several export
orders in the market unexecuted. The amount of
business concluded in Palm has been to a limit-el
extent, and a reduction is apparent—sules having
been made 30a for fine ; the market will also be
better supplied shortly. Full terms are obtained
for Cocoa Nut, and a gocd business has been
concludeti by private treaty at 293 to 32s for Ceylon and
Cochin. At auction 227 casks went at 29s for Ceylon,
and at 30s for Bombay, but a part only sold. A small
parcel of American refined Lard '(hl realized 26..
Prices have /till a downward tendency for Olive vii,
and for all purp.-ses salt the keep upon a limited
scale—Gallipoli and Spanish can be obtained at
411 to 411 10s, Barbary, Levant, and Portugal have
at 391 to 401 lOs per tun. There is, however, a fair c•n-
ruasption with every prospect of a turther increase
taking place. Seal met with a good demand, and the
market is firm, pale at 31153 to 311 10s, and other sorts
at 301 to 311, but the stock is getting larger. Southern
met with more attention from shippers and home
dealers, but not at higher rates. At auction 78 tuns all
found buyers at from 501 15s to 321 5s for low
to fine. In Cod not much has been done, still holder s
are firm, and require 341 104 to 351. Sperm has been
in excellent request, fully supporting former terms, but
there is a better supply., At auction l'so tuns Colonial
were all sold, good and fine at 841 to 851 10s. Head-
matter is still in small supply, and fine sells freely at
901 to 921 per tun.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT,
(THIS EVENING.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.
Their Lordships met at Five o'clock.

GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY (DEVIATIONS,
AMENDMENTS OF ACTS, ALTERATION
OF TOLLS, AND OF EAST LINCOLNSHIRE
RAILWAY TOLLS) BILL.
Oa the order of the day tor the third reading of this

Lord CARRINGTON opposed the motion. The
landholders on the line had been induced to consent to
the Bill in 1846, on the ground of the lowness of the tolls.
By this Bill the company sought to raise the tolls and
thereby were violating faith. He moved that it be re-
committed in order to give the opponents of the Bill an
opportunity of being heard. •
Lord WHARNCLIFFE said the opponents of the
Bill had already had ample opportunities of being heard,
and he should press the third reading.
After a few words from the Duke of RICHMOND,
The Earl of GRANVILLE said that he should vote
for the third reading of the Bill.
Lord REDESDALE asked why the opposition to this
Bill did not take place earlier ?—(Cheers.) He thought
no railway company had any claim to come to Parlia-
ment to increase tolls. Many Bills had been carried
solely nn the ground of the low rate of tolls.
Earl FITZ WILLIAM bad no objection to the Bill
generally; but with respect to an increase of tolls ho
thought that some parties had been negligent in watching
the progress of the measure. The result of this increase
of tolls would be to cut off a great part of Lincolnshire
from the London market, and he could only ac-
count for the delay of the opposition on the
ground of the dislike which private individuals
had to enter the lists against a powerful company.
He thought it would be but just to send
-this Bill again
to a Committee.

L:)rd KINNAIRD thought, that as another railway
running through the same district had obtained power
to increase their tolls, this Bill ought to be passed. To
recommit that Bill would be virtually to lose it.
Lord BEAUAONT considered that this Bill was a
violation of agreement with the landowners, and they
would be exposed year of year to tight this company
if their Lordships admitted the principle that a railway
company might violate an understanding by raising
their tolls.
After a few words from the Earl of DEVON,
Lord STANLEY said that as the opponents of the
Bill had not made application to be heard in time he
should Support the third reading.
The Earl of MANVERS would vote for the re•com
mittal of the Bill.
Lord WHARSCLIFFE replied.
Their Lordships then divided, when there appeared—

The Bill was then reads third time and passed.
EXPOSITION OF 1851.

On our re-admission to the gallery we found
Lord BROUGHAM moving for certain papers re-
lating to the exposition of 1851. Ho gave notice that he
should postpone his motion on the subject to Thursday.
Lord CAMPBELL hoped his Noble and Learned
Friend would not postpone it beyond Thursday, because
he (Lord Campbell) was most anxious, as Lord Chief
Justice of England, to enter his solemn warning against
what he had no hesitation in characterizing as certainly,
if not illegal, at least the unconstitutional proceedings
which were contemplated in this matter, and which
would inflict a great grievance on her Majesty's subjects.
Lord BROUGHAM would not postpone it beyond
Thursday, and he entirely agreed with his Noble Friend
in his view of this matter.
