MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of Nov. 21.)
Smut—To-day the business transacted in the West In-
dia Sugar market was
.extyemely limited; although some
merchants were more mclined to sell, only 60 hhds, &c.
were disposed of at a decline of 6d to is per cwt. The total
sales for the week amount to only 540 hhds and tierces.
REFLNED.—To-day easier rates were again taken for re-
fined goods for home consumption, brown lumps according
to quality, selling at 63s 6d to 655, and standard lumps 66s
per cwt, but at these rates several purchases were made.
Bonded Crushed is again cheaper, 33s 6d to 333 9d per cwt
having been taken for the best. In Loaves there is a good
deal doing.
Ktunerms.—There has been less disposition manifested
to purchase this description of Sugar, but holders have shown
firmness and obtained previous rates for the small parcels dis-
posed of by private treaty.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal Sugar met with little
attention, and at public sale 660 bags went at barely the
former value. Of Penang 594 bags, 24 baskets, and 1 case,
were offered, and went a little cheaper.
FOREIGN.—The market has again been scantily supplied
with Foreign Sugar, but exporters and our refiners working
under hond are cautious in their proceedingss but holders
show firmness, and refrain from pressing sales.
MOLASSES. —For West India previous rates are asked, the
supply at market being small, but there has been a consi-
derable falling off in the demand this week, and only small
parcels have been sold. Bengal Treacle is worth 19s to 21s
per cwt, and is wanted. In Honey there has again been a
good deal done, and prices keep on the advance.
Solos.—To.day the market was well supplied with Cassia
Lignea, and three parcels amounting to 1,812 chests were
brought to auction ; the trade evinced little desire to ope-
rate, and a small part only sold at a decline on the rates of
the last auction of 3s to 4s per cwt. Malabar Pepper met
with little attention. Of Nutmegs 3 chests sold, good brown
at 53 4d per lb.
Cocoa.—British Plantation has been purchased with cau-
tion by private treaty, and former rates have been barely
supported, Trinidad grey selling at 38s to 435, red 39s to 445,
and superior 45s to 475. None has been offered at auction.
Foreign is little wanted, and prices are on the decline.
COFFICE.—This afternoon Ceylon Coffee was in excellent
request, and at auction 3,305 bags were all
.sold at an ad-
vance on former rates of 1s per cwt; good ordinary bold pale
Native bringing 48. 6d to 49s 6d, one lot 50s, and bold Triage
46s 6d to 47s per cwt. By private treaty several parcels of
Native and Plantation were disposed of.
TEA.—The market has presented a tranquil appearance for
all descriptions this week, there having been further arrivals,
and the stock of Black and Green being large causing the
trade to be cautious in their proceedings. Congou of all
kinds has been purchased with caution, and the rates taken
have been rather under those previously quoted. Pouchong
is however not offered upon lower terms, but there are
not many buyers at present. For Twankay there are not
many buyers. The cheapness of
common Caper, however,
has induced the trade to operate with more freedom.
Notwithstanding the low rates at which Hyson is to be
purchased, still the trade operates with caution. Imperial
has been taken with caution. Gunpowder is dull of sale.
Scented Orange Pekoe has been purchased with more free-
dom and prices are firmer, fine bringing 2s 10d to 3s. Young
Hyson has been sold to a fair extent. The lower sorts of
Congou are a little cheaper than last year, whilst the better
are much the same as at that time. Twankay is a little
cheaper than last season, and Hyson, Imperial, and Gun-
powder are 5d to is per lb lower.
FRUlT.—Since this day week there has been a brisker de-
mand for all descriptions : the public sales have been very
extensive. All bought in, but a great part appears to have
been subsequently sold. By private contract some large
operations are reported to have been made : a par.
cel of new Cephalonia offered at public sale and
bought in at 48s ; a portion has been sold pri-
vately below that price. Fine Valentias are in demand
at 435, and are very scarce. Since this day week 70,000
drums Figs have been offered at public sale, but the' greater
part being of inferor quality have been bought in, a few
lots selling from 38. to 645. Imperial French Plums, in car-
tons 100 s to 131 s, half-cartons 1021 to 1265, quarter cartons
102 s to 1355, eighth cartons 95s to 132 s ; Prunes, in chests
and half-chests 28s to 30s. A parcel of new Greek Figs, in
cases, were offered and taken in at 325.
Soistrrs.—For all descriptions of Jamaica Rum prices rule
very firm, but the supply at market is small, especially of
the good and fine qualities. There has been a falling off in
the home and export demand this week, and the total
sales amount to only 250 puncheons, at 3s 7d to 3s 10d
for 29 to 36 per cent. over proof, and small parcels of
better quality at 43 to 5s per gallon. Leeward Island is
wanted, but business has been checked by the scanty supply,
and buyers are compelled to pay 2s 2d to 2s 3d proof
strength. In Calcutta sales have been made at 2s 11/d
to 2s 2d proof with certificate, and the market is still
scantily supplied. Of common Demerara small parcels
have been sold at full prices, strong kinds are wanted and
fetch 3s 2d to 3s 6d. The stock of all kinds is still on the
