Suome,---The market for Muscovadee was apparently heavy
last week, as the business of this port.luts lately undergone a eon-
sidereal alteration ;- little business being effected at an early hour
of the market, but 'orders left with the brokers for the considera-
tion of the holders, 'which generally ended in extensive woo-
tions at a lets hour in the day ; we report that the bullies.' of last
eek exceeded 3,500 hhds. of Muscovades, though the market was .
*pparently in a languid state. The prices were without slurs"
lion, except for the fine and coloury descriptiOns of Museoeaa",
which, from their scarcity, commanded rather higher prase;
the late extensive imports being chiefly inferior. brown' Sugars
which remark applies to a series of years; the quality of the West
India Musoovedes falling off materiallyi but that the fine should it
this early period be scarce, is rather a novel eireonniunce. The de-
liveries from the warehouse continue extensive, nearly 4,000 alle
