MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of June 4.)
SUGAR.-A reduction on former rates of is to is 6d per
cwt having been accepted for West India Sugar, has caused
a considerable increase in the demand. This afternoon new
Barbadoes Sugar went off without spirit, and in some cases
6d per cwt under former rates ; fine yellow sold at 65s to 66s 6d,
good 62s 6d to 63s 6d, middling 61s to 625, and low 60s to
60s 6d per cwt. In the West India market less business was
transacted ; the demand for Grocery and Refining purposes
was limited, although merchants submitted to a reduction on
the rates of Friday of 6d per cwt.
REFINED.-To-day Refined Sugar was less in request for
home consumption ; Standard Lumps are 77s 6d to 783, and
brown grocery 76s 6d to 77s per cwt. In Bonded Crushed
Sugar there is not so much doing, and prices have declined
from 25s 6d to 25s 9d for first quality.
MAURITIUS.-This afternoon there was a large public sale,
the principal part of which consisted of bright yellow descrip-
tions. Holders submitting to a decline on former rates of is
to is 6d per cwt caused nearly the whole to be disposed of-
fine yellow sold at 63s 6d, to 66s good 60 to 62s 6d, middling
58s to 59s 6d, low middling 56s 6d to 57s 6d, fine brown 565,
good 54s to 54s 6d, and ordinary to good grey 57s to 62s
per cwt.
EAST INDIA.--Madras in bond sold 2s to 3s under the
general valuation ; low brown damp and washed went at 24s
to 25s 6d, middling 28s to 295, low yellow rather bright
30s to 30s 6d, middling 32s to 32s 6d, and good 33s
to 34s per cwt. For Foreign East India sugar prices are
firm. This afternoon Bengal Sugar went is under
former rates ; fine white at 64s 6d, good 63s to 63s 6d,
middling 61s to 62s 6d, low middling 59s to 60s, middling
yellow 56s to 57s 6d, good 58s 6d to 59s per cwt.
FOREIGN.-White Havannah has brought full rates.
Brazil has sustained the previous currency, and small parcels
of brown and yellow have been sold, but in white little
business has been transacted.
MmAssEs.-For West India rather lower rates have been
accepted ; Trinidad taken in at 26s to 27s ; Barbadoes 27s ;
Antigua sold at 25s to 25s 6d for middling, and 24s for
ordinary. East India is dull of sale ; Madras bought in at
9s 6d per cwt.
Cocok.-British Plantation has been less in request ; Tri-
nidad middling red at 43s to 465, grey 42s to 445, sea da-
maged and repacked 303 to 34s per cwt. Foreign is wanted,
and full rates paid privately for small parcels.
COFFEE.-Importers of West India have supplied the mar-
ket freely, but submitting to a decline on former prices of
2s to 3s per cwt has occasioned the demand to be good.
Holders of East India brought forward large parcels, and
prices have fallen for all sorts. This afternoon Jamaica Coffee
was in limited request only, and 137 casks of the new crop
at public sale were sold at a decline on former rates of 2s per
cwt; good middling at 96s to 975, mid 84s to 88s, low mid
79.3 to 83s 6d, fine fine ord 75s to 78s, ord 51s 6d, fine
ord 60s 6d to 695, ord 50s to 555, triage 508 to 555. Mocha
is to 2s per cwt under former rates; middling yellow went at
71a to 735, fine ordinary 69s 6d to 70s, broken 50s to 555, and
sea damaged first class 63s 6d to 67s 6cl; the remainder was
all taken in, good mid and good yellow at 75s to 78s, mid
725, pale rather broken 655, brownish ditto 68s, and sea da-
maged 51s to 71s per cwt, being the former value. Ceylon
good ord at 47s to 47s 6d; 49s 6d to 51s for fine ord coloury,
61s 6d for fine fine ord, and 20s for triage. _ _

TEA.—There has been a flatness in The market for all de-
scription of Black Tea, and rather lower rates have been ac-
cepted ; but Green has sustained the former currency. To-
day importers of Black Tea were generally inclined to realise,
and for Green prices were not so firm ; buyers were cautious
in their proceedings. The quantity offered at public sale was
large, amounting to 46,390 packages. There was a good at-
tendance of the trade, but they evinced little inclination to
purchase, and the biddings were languid.

bold white, lOs 6d to Its for middling rather broken, and
lOs 641 per cwt for sea damaged. Madras and Java have
maintained the former currency. Cleaned Rice is held firmly,
Patna at 13s to 17s, and Carolina 2ls to 26s per cwt.

together a firmer appearance for the article. Sago Flour 19s 6d
to 20. per cwt. Tapioca fetehed:4id to 44d, and Rio Arrow-
root 4d per lb.
INDlGO.—lfolders of East India are more inclined to realise,
and have submitted to a reduction on the rates of the last
quarterly sale of 2d to 3d per lb. The market is quiet for
Spanish, and prices are not so firm.
