public sale 463 boxes of yell, and 197 boxes of white Havan-
nah, all dam were brought forward and sold at stiff rates, fine
yellow slightly damaged at 24s to 24s 6d, good 23s to 23s 60,
middling 22e 6d, low 20s to 21s 6d; damaged, low to fine 20s

29e 6d to 30s, low 28s 6d to 295, and damaged at 27s Gd to
29s 6d for low to good quality.
COFFEE._To-day good ord Ceylon Coffee met with free
purchasers at the improved rates of 455 to 455 6d per cwt by
private treaty. For Jamaica the demand was brisker, and
68 casks 12 brls at auction were sold at full rates.
TEA.—The arrivals have increased, and amount to the
immense quantity of 72,598 pkgs since our last, nevertheless
holders have manifested firmness, and retrained at present
from offering at public sale. There bas been a good demand
for Congou, and the lower sorts which have been the most in
request brought a small advance on the rates of the last
auctions, but in the value of the better kinds there is no im-
provement to notice. Twankav has sustained the former
value, and several parcels have been sold. In Hs son there
has been a good deal doing, in consequence of holders sub-
mitting to rather lower rates, there being ready sellers of
Pouchong at the reduced rates of the last auction. Gun-
powder and Imperial met with a good demand, but mer-
chants are willing sellers.
SPICES. —ThiS afternoon Pimento met with less attention,
and 515 bags at public sale sold upon rather lower terms, and
went at 2,5.0 to 2%id tsr. mid. Of Malabar Pepper 605 bags
were only partly sold, half heavy at 340 to 376 d, light
Eastern kind 23/4d to 2:;:s'd per lb. 1,132 pockets Bengal
Girger went at 203 to 22s per cwt for rather wormy.
Rum, IlfsaNDY, AND lIOLLANDS.—For Jamaica Rum the
demand has increased, shippers and the home trade operating
with more freedom, but holders have been unable to obtain any
advance in prices; the quantity sold has been 300 puns, fair
quality 30 to 36 per cent. over proof 3s to 3s 4d, better 32 to 34
over 3s 7d to 35 9d, superior 3s 100 to 45 9d per gall. Leeward
has suffered a depression of Id, still the demand has been
good, and the sales amount to 260 puns at is 7d for proof to
1 per cent. over faulty, and at Is 7id to Is 9d for proof
to 9 per cent over to clean quality. For Demerara rather
lower rates having been taken, occasioned 100 puns to
be sold at 2s 60 to 2s 9d for 30 to 38 per cent. over proof.
Calcutta cannot generally be purchased at any further de•
cline, but only 100 casks sold at Is 4d to Is 5d proof with
certificate. For Brandy lower rates having been taken, has oc-
casioned a better demand, and many parcels have been sold.
The stock is on the increase of Geneva, and at present there
are not many orders ; is 7d to is 8d is the value of common
shipping sort. In the value of English Corn Spirits there
is no variation to notice.
RICE.—To• day Bengal Rice was sought after, and 2,042
bags at auction vsere all sold at steady prices.
TALLOW.—An increased desire has been manifested to pur-
chase Russian Tallow, and slight improvement has taken
place in prices. On the spot soap-makers and chandlers have
been large purchasers, paying 38s to 38s 6d for P Y Candle
of first quality, and for forward delivery many contracts have
been entered into ; 38s 6d to 3Ss 9d per cwt are the rates paid
for the last three months of the year. The market is firm
for Town Tallow, and at 38e to 39s per cwt nett cash—there
has been a good deal doing. All other kinds of Tallow met
with ready purchasers at previous rates.
Orts.—The market is firm for Olive Oil, at 421 to 4.3/ for
; 39l 105 to 41/10s for Barbary and Spanish, and at
39/ per tun for Levant. Prices rule firm for Linseed Oil; on
the spot the demand has been brisk at 25s 90 to 265, and for
fi.rward delivery numerous contracts have been entered into
at 26s 3d to 27s per cwt. Rape in good request at 37s to
37s 6d for pale, and brown at 36s to 36s 6d per cwt. Palm
has slightly declined in value; 74 casks at auction went at
23s to 26530 for low to fine. Cocoa Nut is little wanted by
the home trade, but there is a good export demand : 27s to
28s per cwt is the value of first quality. Holders of cog
mon descriptions of Fish Oils manifest firmness, and a good
demand has existed: the rates paid are rather above those of
this day week for most sorts. Sperm is wanted, and prices
keep high in consequence of the short supply; the best British
being worth 86l to 881, and American 841 to 851 per tun.
African Ground Nut Oil is held for 361 to 391 per tun.
INDIGO.—The market is firm for East India, and there is
nothing pressing for sale, but at present the home and export
demand is only for small parcels at the rates of the last
quarterly sales.
