MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of Sept. 3.)

SUGAR.—Since Tuesday last there has been more
activity in the Colonial Sugar Market, and importers
have manifested more firmness. For West India a
brisk demand has prevailed fur every description for
grocery and refining purposes, the rates paid are
fully equal to those of this day week, and in
some cases rather above for bright yellow sorts.
This afternoon there was an increased desire manifested
on the part of grocers and refiners to purchase We,t
India Sugar, and the rates paid were rather above those
of Friday for bright yellow sorts ; all other kinds fully
maintained the former currency. The total purchases
reached 900 hhds, &c., including 152 hhds of Barbadoes,
72 hhds 18 tcs and 91 brls of St. Lucia at public sale ;
the former, a footy parcel, however, went off flatly, and
not above two-thirds sold at prices rather under
those of the last auction, low yellow went at 56s to 56s
6d, mid 57s to 58s good mid to good 58s 6d to 61s, and
fine 63s to 645; the latter, however, went at full market
rates, viz., good yellow at 58s to 58s 6d, good middling
57s 6d, mid 565, low 55s to 55s 6d, good brown 545,
mid 53s to 53s 6d, and low dabs 48s 6d per cwt.
REFINED.—The low rates that prevail for Refined
goods have induced the home trade to purchase largely,
at 72s 6d to 73s for brown lumps, 73s 6d to 74s for stan-
dard lumps, 73s to 82s for tittlers, 73s 6d to 81s for
Hambro Loaves, 82s to 90s for double ditto, and 71s
to 72s per cwt for wet lumps. Prices have decidedly an
upward tendency, and the grocers generally enter-
tain a favourable opinion towards the article.
To-day Refined goods were in excellent request by the
home trade. Standard Lumps at 745, and brown gro-
cery at 73s per cwt. Bonded crushed Sugar is much
wanted, and prices are firm at 27s 6d to 27s 9d per cwt.
MAURITIUS.—There has been a much better demand
for this description of Sugar; good and fine yellow sorts,
of which the supply is still modeerate, have brought in
some instances rather higher rates ; inferior brown and
grey kinds, which are plentiful, mainlain the previous
currency. This afternoon good and fine yellow sorts
were much inquired after, and the rates paid are rather
above those of the public sale of Friday. In the value
of inferior kinds there is little variation.

EAST INDIA —Bengal has met with more attention,
and some parcels of the better descriptions of white have
been disposed of by private contract at former terms.
Dobal sorts are much wanted, but the supply has be-
come small —sales made at 65s to 75s per ca t.
This afternoon there was an increased demand for Ben-
gal Sugar, and 1,974 bags at auction were readily dis-
posed of at 6d, and in some cases Is per cwt above former
rates ; fine white fetched 665, good mid and good 61s to
635, mid 60s to 60s 6d, low 595, damp and washed,s63 6d
to 59s 6d, mid sound grey 57s 6d, ord Date yellow 53s 6d,
and damp 51s 6d to 52s 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.—Since Tuesday last the demand has in-
creased for yellow Havannah, and the rates previously
established are supported. To-day there was an excel-
lent demand for Foreign Sugar, and full rateswere paid;
the private operations are 300 chests yellow llavannah
on the spot at 19s to 20.;, 150 chests Is bite 29s to 31s,
180 cases white Pernambuco 21s for exportation to Hol •
]and, 220 cases grey Bahia (per Thetis) 225, 180 cases
brown ditto 17s 9d for export, and 1,000 chests fine
superior Trinidad de Cuba 21s on speculation.
MOLASSES —Previous rates are supported for West
India, and many parcels have been disposed of. This
afternoon West India met with a fair demand privately,
but 62 puns middling St. Lucia at auction were taken
in at 21s 6d per cwt, being above the value.
LAC DYE has met with attention, and several parcels
have been disposed of at firm rates, sales privately made
at 5d to 7d for common, 8d to is fur middling, Is 2(1 to
is 3d for good, and is 8d to 2s 6d per lb for fine.
COFFEE.—There are still few purchasers of West
India Coffee, and prices continue on the decline, al-
though importers refrain from supplying the market
largely ; the limited demand that has prevailed for some
time is to be attributed to Ceylon Coffee being taken to
a large extent as a substitute, the quality being much
superior to that of former years, and still the
cheapest description of Coffee the grocers can use.
This afternoon there was rather more demand for Fo-
reign Coffee, and prices ruled firm ; sales of good ord St.
Domingo were made at 30s 6d to 325, and good ord Rio
31s to 32s per cwt. Ceylon Coffee was in excellent
request by private contract, good ord at 55s
6d to 56s per cwt ; there was no auction. Of
West India 76 casks 179 brls were offered at public
sale, and a very small part only sold at rather lower
rates; Jamaica, good mid 105 s, mid 83s to 87s, low mid
80s, fine fine ord 68s to 765, fine ord 61a to 665, good
ord 53s to 565, and triage 465. Demerara, unclean fine
ord 53s to 60s, fine fine 64s to 645, and inferior 40s to
50s per cwt.
TEA.—Previous rates are fully supported for Corgou,
and a good demand has prevailed for all sorts ; indeed,
for the middling kinds aather higher rates have been
given ; common sound. has been selling at leid to lld ;
good common I lid to Is, but mid ra strong mixed blksh
If is to is Oid, mid blksh. If is Id to Is 3d, good blksh If
Is 3i-cl to Is 6d, fine and Pekoe flavour is 6-d to 2s 4d per
lb; the supply small of latter sorts. The demand has been
lively for Pouchong, and stiffer prices are again paid :
indeed the market has been nearly cleared, common has
fetched 6d to 6id, fair and good leaf 7d to 10d, and fine
lOid to Is; the low and middling kinds are the most in
request. Souchong of common quality has sold steadily
at full rates, but good and fine sorts are dull of sale, and
prices still going down. Bohea sold at 6d to 6i-d per lb.
Twankay at is 2d to is 3d the better kinds at is 4d to
Is 8d for but mid to mid brightish leaf, and at is 9d to 2s 5d
for fine and Hyson kind ; the latter are still taken as a sub-
situate for ordinary Hyson. Orange Pekoe at 3s 2d to
3s 5d
; plain Orange and Flowery Pekoe are in fair de-
mand, and quotations remain firm. Ilyson has met with
much attention, and prices are still, rising, common
fetching 2s 5d to 2s 7d, but mid and mid 2s Id to 2s I Id,
and superior 3s to 3s 10d. In the.value of Young Hyson
and Hyson skin there is no alteration, but an increased
business has been transacted, and there is only a
moderate supply. Gunpowder and Imperial have met
with ready purchasers at prices rather above those
previously quoted : of the former, sales made at 2s 2d
to 2s 5d fur but mid coarse blue glazed leaf, 2s 6d to 3s
for better quality, 3s 3d to 3s 6d for brightish leaf, and

for but mid con blue glazed leaf Canton kind, 2s 7d to
2s 10d for but mid palish leaf fresh burnt, 2s lld to 3s Id

most kinds of Tea, and prices have a firm appearance
common and good sound common Congous brought I ld
to is old per lb.
COCOA.—West India is still much wanted and prices
have further advanced is per cwt. 74 bags of Grenada
at auction were sold at 46s 6d fur fine bright red, 42s to
42s 6d for ordinary, and 400 bags of Trinidad at 40s to
41s 6d for low red, and 42s to 44s 6d fur middling to
good middling, but 340 bags were bought in much above
the value ; good fair red at 45s to 465, and fair grey 42s
per cwt ; full market rates were offered. The demand
is increasing for Foreign, and the parcels disposed of
privately have been at stiffer rates.

higher rates being asked, checked business; 11 cases at
auction were taken in at 4s 9d for tine brown, and 3s 6d
to 3s 9d for middling to good middling, and limed 2s to
3s. 360 bags East India Ginger Isere bought in at 305

To-day importers of Rum were not enabled to obtain any
further advance in prices, as arrivals are coming in more
freely ; former rates however were sustained,- and the
demand continues.—Proof Leewards at 2s 5d to 2s 51d;
Jamaica sold at 4s 2d per gallon
FRUIT.—Of Currants the merchants generally with-
drew their parcels from the market, awaiting further
intelligence respecting the crop by the next mail, but
still the grocers generally do not appear inclined to in-
cee,:se their stocks, the transaction in consequence have
been onii to a limited extent.
Seao.—The market has been in a quiet state, and
prices are on the dee-line. This afternoon at public sale
103 bags 210 boxes Peal '.l. Sago were offered ; a small
part only at 14s for small brow:. ; the remainder bought

paid. To-day for Bengal rice rather lower rates were
accepted. 1,000 bags of good middling white sold pri-
vately at Ils to lls 3d per cwt.
SALTPETRE.—This afternoon some parcels of Rough
were disposed of privately at fully former rates—ordi-
nary sound of high refraction is fetching 24s 6d to 25s
per cwt ; none has been offered at auction.
INDIGO.—East India is still much wanted, and prices
are looking up. Bengal has been in good request by
shippers. The market is in a very satisfactory state for
Indig ). Although the stock is a large one, still the
market is sparingly supplied.
TaLLow.—This afternoon, prices were fully main-
tained for Russian Tallow, and a good demand existed.
The letters come to hand from St. Petersburgh state
that the prices were not so firm, and the Russians gene-
rally more willing to realize ; up to the 20th of August,
however, the quantity shipped off was 10,000 casks under
that of last scacon to the same period ; the total quantity
sent to Great Britain had not been above half of what it
was last year to the same time.
OlLs.—ln the value of common descriptions of Fish
Oils little variation has taken place since last Tuesday :
Seal has met with more attention, and some parcels have
been disposed of at 341 lOs to 351; Cod has been in fair
request at 33/ 15s to 341, and for Southern a good
demand has prevailed at 281 to 321 per tun. Sperm,
fine British, 851 to 881 per tun. For Linseed Oil,
further reduced rates have been accepted : the supply
has become large ; sales on the spot have been made at
24s to 24s 3d per cwt ; these low rates are likely to cause
a great increase in the demand ere long ; prices are 6s
to 7s per cwt under those of last year at this time ; in
Rape Oil more business has been transacted, but not at
better prices, pale selling at 36s to 36s 6d, and
brown, 35s to 35s 6d, per cwt ; the market is firm
for Olive Oil, and a good demand exists at 451 to 461 f.r
Gallipoli, 421 to 44/ for Spanish, and 401 to 411 per tun
for Barbary. In Cocoa Nut several purchases have been
male at 29s to 30s 6d per cwt; the supply has fallen
off lately. Palm is wanted, and sales made at 27s to
28s for fine, and 25s to 26s per cwt for other descrip-
tions ; holders are not so desirous to sell, and the stock
is not a large one.

A return has been made of the growth of wool,
from which we find that the total quantity produced in
Essex is 2,372,6-10 lbs. ; the value of which is 118,6321.
The total wool produced in England is 102,803,758
and the total value at ls. per lb. (the rate reckoned above)
is 5,140,186/. Yorkshire prAuces the greatest quantity,
8,263,658 lbs.—Essex Herald.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
(YESTERDAY.)
CLERKEN WELL.

Inspector Billens, of the S division, came forward
yesterday and stated to the Magistrate, that there
was a charge of a very serious nature on the police-
sheet, respecting which he sought his Worship's advice.
Mr. John Stephens Murphy, an Irish gentleman, be-
longing to a mercantile house in the City, and
residing at No. 53, Spencer-street, Northampton-
square, was charged with causing the death of James
Rogers, and injuring three other persons, viz. :—John
Hill, Thomas Bignall, and Elizabeth Bignall, whose
life is despaired of.
Mr. COMBE asked where the prisoner was ? The
Inspector stated that Mr. Murphy was lying at his
own residence dangerously ill. Prom the statement
of those who witnessed the transaction, and who vv ere
then in Court, the facts of the case appeared to be
these :—The deceased, John James Rogers, was a
carter in the employment of Mr. Upton, of
Highgate, and lived in North-street, Highgate.
Thomas and Elizabeth Bignall were aunt and uncle
of the deceased, and John Hill his cousin. On the
previous (Sunday) evening between eight and nine
o'clock, the Bignalls and Hill, who lived in Hill-
street, Wellington-street, Blachfriars-road, had been
visiting Mrs. Rogers, wife of the decased, who has
just been confined of her fifth child, and were return.
ing home along the Holloway-road, when they saw a
one-horse phaeton in which Mr. Murphy was coming
down Holloway-hill at full speed ; they endeavoured
to avoid it, and ran towards the side of the road, but
the vehicle turned into that side of the road, and
before they could leave it came into collision with
them. They were all knocked down. The deceased
as caught in the springs and dragged into the road,
and the wheels of the right side of the vehicle passed
over his head, producing a compound fracture of the
skull. Elizabeth Bignall's arm was broken, and the
wheel's passing over her breast, severe internal in-
juries were the consequence. Thomas Bignall's col-
lar-bone was broken, and he was otherwise much in-
jured. Hill's wounds are not dangerous. At the
moment of the collision, Mr. Murphy was thrown out
of the vehicle. He was
.Tendered insensible by the
fall, and his head was dreadfully cut and contused.
The vehicle was broken in several places. The suf-
ferers were conveyed to the Whittington and Cat,
Highgate, and Dr. Moger, of Highgate, was imme-
diately sent tor. Up.,n his arrival, Rogers was found
to be in a dying state, and he did not survive more
than a few minutes. Mrs. Bignall was for a long
time insensible, and it was feared would not live
through the night. Everything was done for the un-
fortunate survivors. Mr. Murphy was in the course
of the night remov:d to his own residence, where he
lies under the care of Dr. Matthews. Bignall is toll-
collector on the Southwark-bridge.
Certificates regarding the condition of the sufferers
from the medical gentlemen were produced. They
described the condition of the Bignalls as very dan-
gerous.
Mr. COMM inquired of Mr. Murphy was in cus-
tody ? The inspector replied, that he was under the
surveillance of the police, and that he would be able
to attend that Court on Wednesday next.
Mr. COMBS said, he could not at present interfere.
The police inspector must exercise his own discretion.
