CITY MARKETS-r-TWO O'CLOCK.
PLANTATION SUGARS.-The good and fine qualities
continue most in demand, and are eagerly sougkt after in
consequence of their continued scarcity, the holders rea-
lizing the prices they demanded freely; in the low and
middling qualities a good deal of business has been done,
but last week's prices have barely been maintained. The
ships continue to arrive very slowly and appear to bring a
very inadequate supply of goad qualities, either for the
Grocers or Refiners. Of Mauritius Sugar 9,295 bags
have been offered by public sale this week, consisting prin-
cipally of the brown to middling qualities, nearly the whole
of which found buyers, hut at a reduction of from 6d.
to Is. per cwt. ; the good and fine yellow and strong quali-
ties also were sold at rather lower prices.
Delivered last week from the West India Docks, 2,534
hogsheads, 200 tierces.
Stock on hand in the West India Docks (on the Id
instant) 12,032 hogshead', 1,600 tierces.
Steck on hand in the West India Docks (on the 4th of
June, 1827) 17,855 hogsheads, 1,898 tierces.
FokEiGN Suows.s.—Nothing doing at present.
REPINED SUL: ARS.-The present supply of goods in the
market is net adequate to the demand either fur export or
the home trade, consequently the Refiners arc firmer in
their demands, and for the good and fine grocery descrip-
tions obtain higher prices : for crashed there are a good
many orders in town, but as the Refiners are asking higher
prices, very few can be executed at present.
COFFEE.-The demand for all descriptions is still very
limited ; 577 casks Plantation have been offered by public
sale this week, but only part sold, some parcels at rather a
reduction in price, although generally no reduction can be
quoted : the qualities offered were chiefly fine ordinary to
middling Jamaica.
Delivered last week from West India Docks, 533 Casks,
1288 Bags, Sze.
Stock on hand in 'West India Docks (on 2d inst.)
11,182 Casks, 84,843 Bags, &c.
stock on hand in West India Docks (on 4th inst.,
1827), 10,981 Casks, 81,406 Bags, &c.
FRUIT.-There is no alteration ; a parcel of Currants
' is being divided among the trade at 935.
Suess.—Cinnamo❑ continues in good demand at the
last advance. The same remark will apply to Pepper and
Cloves. . .

Semfrs.—There has been some activity displayed in the
Rum market this week, the supply having increased, but
at no material alteration in prices
TEA.—The Company's sale is proceeding steadily, and
will not conclude till the end of next week. The quota-
tions obtained to-day are rather laver.
Hors.—The accounts this morning from the planta-
tions are more satisfactory. The Hops are represented
as growing fast. The duty is estimated at 130,0001. to
135,000/.
TaLLow.—As large supplies of new Tallow may soon
be expected to arrive, the market is in a very dull state.
Some arrivals from St. Petershurgh have taken place this
week, but the quantity brought is not so small. Tallow
to-day is from 375. 6d. to 375. 9d. per cwt.
INDIGO.—There is not much doing. Small parcels
continue to exchange hands at a profit on the sale price.
COTTON.—The business in this market is pretty large.
Prices much the same as early in the week.
THE •SILK TRADE.—The accounts from most of the
Provinces where the manufacture of Silk is carried on,
state that hopes were entertained of a change in the policy
recently adopted with respect to this branch of trade which
is still labouring under depression. Light goods are, how-
ever, snore in demand than they were ; nothing appears to
be yet known of the course to be adopted by Government
relative to the Act passed three yeas s since for the regula-
tion of the trade, and which expires iu October next. Raw
Silks remain flat.
