MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current, March 8.)
SUGAR.—To-day West India Sugar met with little at-
tention for the scale or refining purposes, and rather lower
rates were acceded to. Only 260 hhds, &c. were disposed of,
including at auction 30 hhds 22 tics 30 brls chrystalized De-
merara, which sold at 49s to 50s Gd for white, yellow 38s to
43s Gd, brown 3Gs 6d to 37s 6d, inferior 324 6d. to 33s 6d
per cwt. For the week in all only 824 hhds, &c. have been
disposed of, and prices close 6d per cwt under those of
Friday last.
REFINED.—To-dav there was less activity in the refined
Sugar market, still brown grocery Lumps were not to be
obtained under 48s per cwt. The market is dull for Crushed
Sugar, and prices are rather lower; the best British is not
worth more than 30s per cwt.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon the public sales of 3,253 bags
Mauritius Sugar went off at rather lower rates, and a part
only sold; fine yellow at 39s to 40s Gd, other sifts 35s to
38s 6d, good to fine brown 33s Gd to :34s 6d, and other
kinds 31s to 34s Gd per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal met with little atten-
tion, and rather lower rates were acceded to. At public
sales 3,764 bags mostly found buyers; white Senores at
38s to 41s, damp and washed 37s Gd to 40s 6d, soft yellow
34s to 375, low date 293 to 325, and good to line strong grainy
yellow 41s 6d to 42s 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.—This afternoon there was little passing by
private treaty in Foreign Sugar. At Auction 72 hhds Suri-
nam went at moderate rates ;. soft yellow at 36s to 375. and
brown 34,.; per cwt. A cargo of low yellow Havanuah has
been sold at 20s 3d per cwt.
COFFEE —This afternoon the private transactions in
Coffee were trifling for all purposes, and prices are still on the
decline. The value of Native Ceylon is 57s to 53s for good
ord, and 55s to 56s 'for arrival. Of Plantation a small part
only of 165 casks 13 bags at auction found buyers at 65s to
GBs for mid, and at 70s per cwt for good.
MoLAssEs.—There is a larger supply of West India. At
public sale 27 puns St Vincents were sold at 16s; whilst 615
puns 19 hhds and 50 barrels of Barbadoes were taken in at
17s 6d per cwt. There are tew buyers of Bengal, and 13s 6d
to 14s is the value. Of Mauritius 165 casks at auction were
taken iu at 13s per cwt for vary low quality.

Cocoa.—Operations have been limited in all sorts of West
India by private treaty, and at auction 423 bags Trinidad
were withdrawn. The tendency of prices is still to decline,
acid for all purposes deliveries continue to be less than in the
former year. Of Foreign none has been submitted to public
sale, and privately few buyere are to be met with, whilst
parcels are offered at lower rates,; a further decline is also
looked for.
TEA.—There is no variation to notice in the value of
Conguu this week, and home dealers have made purchases
w ith caution. For exportation a fair quantity of common Con
you has been sold at lOid to I Id per lb. Fine Green realises full
terms, and has been in good demand; low and mild sorts met
with little attention and there are sellers at a slight, reduce
tion. For Pekoe and scented Tea the market is quiet, and
prices tend downwards. _ _ _

RICE. —There continues to be much dulness in the mar-
for East India, whilst the private purchases are not worth
enumerating; they have been almost exclusively confined to
a few orders for the West Indies. Fine White Bengal
supports late rates, but of the lower sorts of Rice
several parcels are on offer. At public sale 1,207 bags
of Penang were taken in, but sold, afterwards at the
low rates of 6s 6d to 7s for low cargo mixed and
middling at 7s per cwt. The value of good and fine white
Bengal is 103 to 1 Is, other sorts 8s to 9s 6d, cargo 78 to is 6d,

not much wanted, whilst a desire is evinced to sell town-

9 IA; ditto of middling quality at 26s per ewt.
INDIGO.—On the part of holders of East India there is a
reluctance to accept lower rates, only trifling purchases have
been made this week by shippers or Came dealers. In Spanish
there has been little passing.
SPinrrs.—A Government contract for 100,000 gallons of
Rum, half East and the remainder West India, ih

disposition is evinced to sell at from 461 to 491 per ton,
Palm tine 31s 6d to 32s per cwt. Of Cocoa Nut several par-
cels are still on oiler, whilst there are few buyers, and prices
are on the decline. In consequence of the reduced stock of
Cod Oil, holders remain firm, and require 331 lOs to 34/ per
tun ; Seal met with little attention, we quote
pale at 371 to 371 10s, straw and tinged 33/ to
361, yellow and brown 30! to 321 103 ; there
