A •
I7GAII.—To-day British Plantation Sugar was in good
demand, and merchants obtained an advance on the rates of
Friday of 6d per cwt; a larger business would have been
transacted in all sorts had the market been better supplied.
A public sale of 100 hhds of Barbadoes went briskly at a
rise on the rates of the last auction of 6d, fine yellow fetch-
ing 54s 6d, good 52s 6d to 535, and middling 50* Gd to 52s
per cwt.
REFINED.—To-day the home demand was excellent for
refined goods, and prices closed firmly; brown lumps for the
scale at 66s to 66s 6d, and standard lumps 67s 6d to 68s per
cwt. The supply is getting inadequate for the demand.
Bonded Crushed Sugar is neglected.
MAtinmus.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar was much
inquired after, and 662 bags at public sale were sold at full
rates, midling greyish yellow at 48s 6d, low 48s, common
grey 465, middling 48s 6d, fine brown 47s Gd, good 45s 6d,
washed 44s 6d to 48s, low 395, and syrupy 44s to 44s 6d
per cwt.
EAST 'NM/L.—This afternoon at public sale 360 bags of
Madras went at stiff rates, and fetched 42s 6d for low damp
brown, 43s 6d for middling, and 41s 6d to 42s Gd for washed.
117 bags of Bengal (Cossipore) sold at high rates, fine strong
grainy white fetched 635, damp 63s and sugar drainage da-
maged 62s per cwt. Of Bengal of all sorts some parcels were
sold privately at full rates.
FOREIGN.—To-day the market was better supplied with
most kinds of Foreign, but there was little desire shown to
operate on the spot ; at auction but a part only sold of 1,662
boxes of yellow Havannah, at a decline on former rates
of is to is 6d per cwt ; 690 barrels of Cuba
Muscovado only partly sold at barely former rates,
396 chests 140 brls 11 boxes 59 bags of Brazil were offered,
but a very small part only found buyers, at about the former
value. Privately a floating cargo of white Macao has been
sold at 30s for a near port, one of Porto Rico, two of yellow
Ilavannah, one of Bahia, and one of Pernambuco, upon
lower terms.

COFFEE.—This afternoon an increased desire was shown
to purchase Ceylon Coffee, but higher rates being asked,
checked business. There was less demand for Foreign Coffee
privately, and 782 bags Bahia at auction taken in at 35s for
very good ordinary, 32s 6d for good ordinary, and 27s to 27s
6d for low ordinary. At the public sale of Coffee held in
Holland, prices have declined 4s to 5s per cwt.
TEA.—For Congou the demand has been very good, and
prices are still on the rise, the town and country trade for
the most part being inclined to get stocked at present moL:e-
rate rates. Pouchong has been purchased with increased
freedom, clean at 6d to 10d, and out of condition at fid to
51d ; the supply is decreasing, and the tendency of .prices
is still upwards. In Twankay the business transacted
has been on..a more extended scale, and at stiffer rates;
Hyson has been purchased with more freedom, and there are
not sellers upon former terms. In Young Hyson and Hyson
skin the transactions are upon a more extended scale at late
rates. The value of good and fine scented Orange Pekoe is
2s 10d to 3s, but there has not been much doing. Gunpowder
has been purchased with increased freedom, Canton sorts at
2s 2d to 2s Bd, and Hyson kind 2s 9d to 4s 4d. For Imperial
the demand is increasing, Canton sort at Is 10d to 2s 6d, and
Hyson kind 2s 8d to 3s 6d per lb. To-day there was a good
demand for black Pepper, and 1,525 bags Sumatra at auction
were sold at very full prices. Nutmegs are still much wanted,
and 3 boxes at auction went at high prices ; ungarbled brown
mixed with small at 4s 9d to 4s 10d, wormy 2s 6d. One
box Mace brought 4s 8d for mid thick red.
SPIRITS.-Jamaica has been purchased with more freedom,
and full rates have been paid for all descriptions. Leeward
Island has been in excellent request, and fetched stiffer prices.
Demerara is wanted, and prices are fully as high. Calcutta
has been in good demand, and prices are still
on the rise. In Brandy there has been a good
business transacted, at a further advance on the rates of last
week. Geneva for exportation is much wanted, and, owing
to the short supply, buyers are compelled to pay further ad-
vanced rates. British Corn Spirits remain firm at lOs 2d
per gallon, nett cash.
TALLow.—Prices are not so firm for Russian, but since our
last report the demand from the town and country trade has
been good on the spot. For forward delivery there has been
a good deal doing, and 41s to 41s 3d are the rates paid for the
last three months. Home made Tallow is greatly wanted,
and fetch 41s id to 425, nett cash. The supply is still under
that of former seasons. For other sorts prices are fully as
high. _ _

COCHINEAL.—There has been a very good demand for all
descriptions by private treaty, and a further improvement
has taken place in prices. Holders show firmness, and sup-
ply the market sparingly.
OILS.—A considerable increase has taken place in the de-
mand for Palm Oil, and large parcels have been disposed of
privately at advanced rates. In Rape a good deal has been
done at higher prices. Cocoa Nut has been purchased with
increased freedom, and prices are well supported, although the
market has been better supplied. In Linseed Oil the opera-
tions are upon a more extended scale, but not at better prices.
Olive Oil has been sold to a large extent at extreme prices.
Sperm Oil has been in excellent request privately, and bring
stiffer rates. In Cod Oil little has been done, although there
are sellers at further reduced rates. Seal is not much in re-
quest at present for home consumption or exportation, and
a decline in prices has occurred.
INDIGO.—The demand for East India for home consumption
and exportation has been extremely limited, and the rates
taken are rather under those of the last quarterly sales. The
quantity declared for public competition has been increased to
16,789 chests. For Spanish the market is in a dull state, and
the tendency of prices is downwards.

Ilsisautton, SEPT. 9.—His Majesty the King of Denmark ar-
rived at Altona yesterday evening. It is understood that his Ma
jesty will come to-morrow to see the part of our city which has
been rebuilt since the fire. His Majesty will honour our theatre
with his presence to-morrow evening.
Mr. Denton, a paper stainer in Leadenhall-street,
was, cm Saturday, fined 5/. for pirating a registered design of Mr.
Boswell's, paper stainer, Dublin.

DISCOVERY OF THE BODY OF A FOREIGN GEN-
mzmAm.—On Sunday morning, between the hours of seven and eight
o'clock, James Barritt, a lighterman belonging to the Pelham canal-
boat, whilst proceeding up the Regent's Canal, between the planta-
tions and the bridge, discovered the body of a person floating in the
water. Be immediately gave an alarm, and with the assistance of
two men got the body upon the bank. They found it to be that of a
gentleman apparently between twenty and thirty years of age. In
his trousers there was found a purse and a pocket-book, and in the
waistcoat a foreign knife, and threepence in coppers. In the purse
were Ave francs and two louisd'ors ; the pocket-book contained a
number of letters and papers, and in a small piece of greets silk there
was a cross of the Legion of Honour. The letters were all in French;
some of them, however, are quite Illegible ; all, however, bear the
Toulon postmark, and are directed "M. G. Autzler, Hotel, Lisle-
street, London." Upon the small finger of the right hand there was
a plain gold ring, and upon the same finger of the left one sot In
onyx and pearls. The body lies at Mr. Payne's, the Harrow, await-
ing the Coroner's inquiry.
SERIOUS Loss or LIFE.—On Tuesday afternoon
last the son of Mr. Dickson, proprietor of the !London and
Brampton waggon, met with his death in the following most
awful manner :—The unfortunate sufferer was driving down
William-hill, Hertfordshire, followed by Mr. Sergeant's Bed-
ford waggon. It was said that Dickson was boasting of the
style in which his horses could come down the hill without
being checked by him ; they began to trot, and soon he lost
all power over them—he went to the head of the leaders, but
he could not stop them until they ran foul of a public-house
on the way side; he was crushed against the wall, one shaft
having run into his bowels ; every assistance that the place
could render him was given, but he, however, after a short
period of the most agonisings uffering, ceased to exist. We
hear one of the horses also was killed, but how true this is we
cannot confidently assert. —Bedford News.
DISEASE AMONGST FISH.—A disease has attacked
the pike and eels in the river Barrow, during the present season, both
being frequently faund in a dying state on the surface of the water.
The pike seem emaciated, and the inside of the mouth presents a
te covering
the teeth, palate, and tongue, and when
stomach is filled with a green slimy substance.

Eels are seen with little apparent life for a day or so, and afterwards
dead in shoal water (the place where all wounded or sick fish swim
to); the under part of the body, from the mouth to the tail, is
speckled with blood-red spots, and the mouth is sometimes full of
coagulated blood : however, the fish does not seem to be in bad con-
dition, or to have suffered so long as the pike. The same kinds of
fish in the canal about Monasterevan have
Also suffered from the

I have also to observe, that the yearly exPen-„,1 lel0,:
34,5001. for providing requisites for the decent -of IF

Government, as it seems not only to be very constueireei
in amount, but to be an increasing demand, and t° tofote
annually, by some thousands, the moneys berbeatis°
required for this service. I request, therefore, too er
will inform me of the several items composing 001
penditure, and the amount of each class ; the 016
which have led to the increase ; whether in t'i,scilet:
ment of the Commissioners 34,5001. is to be °Tv off,A
as the invariable amount of expense for the suPP;non',
