(From the Lonelon New Price Current of Sept. 5.)
SuGAn.— To-day West India Muscovado Sugar was in ex-
cellent request for grocery and refining purposea ; a larger
quantity was taken for the outports ; merchants evinced more
firmness, and obtained an advance on former rates of 6d per
cwt ; the sorts at and under 50s per cwt are the most in re-
quest. The quantity sold amounted to 600, making the total
purchases for the week 2,690 hhds and tierces. The only
public sale was that of a small one of Bengal.
REFINED.—To-day refined goods were in excellent request
for home consumption, and stiffer rates were paid—standard
lumps fetching 66s 6d to 675, and brown lumps 65s to 65s 6d
per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is doll of sale, and prices
are drooping.
URIIIUS,—The small parcels disposed of privately were
upon former terms, none has been submitted to public compe-
tition, but there has been another arrival. For aution on
Tuesday only 700 bags are declared, but a large quantity will
be shortly advertised. The stock is chiefly in first hands, ex-
ceeds that of last year by 19,448 bags.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon at public sale 789 bags of
Bengal Sugar were sold at full rates, good middling white at
55s 6d to 563, damp 555, good dry white 54s 6d, damp 545,
middling yellowish grey sound 47s 6d, low middling 465, damp
455, washed 445, to 44s 6d middling sound brown 41s 6d, and
washed 38e 63 per cwt. Of Dobah 3,000 bagt have been sold
by private treaty at 46s to 63s per cwt.
MOLASSES.—There has been an improved demand for all
descriptions of West India this week, a goad business has been
transacted, and rather higher rates paid, the quantity. sold has
been 900 puns, St. Vincent's, low at 19s. ; Dominica, good
22.5 ; Antigua, flee 235, and very fine 23s 6d per cwt ; the
stock is 5,000 casks less than last year. The value of Bengal
Treacle is 17s 6d to 18s per cwt, but there has been nothing
done at present.
FOREIGN.—This afternoon the market for Foreign Sugar
was vie, 11l hbds and 1 tierce Porto Rico Sugar were offered
at public sale and all sold, but at rather lower rates, fine yellow
went at 26s 6d to 275, good 25s 6d to 265, middling 255, and
one lot of very low 22s 6d per owl. By private treaty there
was little done in any kind.
TEA. —ln Congou purchases to a large extent have been
made, and the rates given are rather above those previously
quoted. Pouchong is held with firmness, and a good deal has
been done. In Souchong more business has been trans-
acted at stiffer rates. Twankay has been in good
demand, and it is difficult to buy at previous rates.
In scented orange Pekoe several transactions have taken
place, but not at higher rates. In flowery and plain orange
there has been more doing at the reduced rates. Hyson has
been in good demand, but prices do not improve. In Gun-
powder a good deal has been done, hut at a further reduction in
prices. Of Young Hyson several parcels have been sold. but
at no rase in prices. Caper is more in request, and it is difficult
to make sales at late rates. Of Hyson Skin several parcels

have been sold, but at low rates.
COFFEE.-This afternoon 73 casks and 26 barrels West In-
dia Coffee were offered at public sale, a mixed parcel, and sold
at moderate rates ; Jamaica, low middling at BOts, fine fine ord

a more extended scale at is 91-Ad to Is 10d proof with certi-
ficate. Jamaica is, however, dull of sale.

chase Linseed Oil on the spot this week; and a further decline
in prices has taken place. For forward delivery there has been
little business transacted • the supply has become large,
and the Crushers are making preparations to work even
on a more extended sca'e. Rape - Oil has been
in excellent •.request, and stiffer rates are given.
For Olive the demand has been active ; the rates are fully as
high, and the stock is cn the decrease.. Cocoa-nut has met
with less attention privately, but previous rates are supported.

Ground Nut Oil 301 to 32/ per tun. Sperm has been in good
request privately and stiffer rates are cbtained. Seal Oil has
been in excellent request, but holders are unable to obtain any
further advance in prices. For Cod the demand has been
limited, and prices continue to go down. With Southern the
demand has been limited, and at rather lower rates. Prices of
every kind of Fish Oil are much lower than last year at this
period.

to 38s 6d; 365 cks of Taganrog stranded 37s 3d to 42s 6d
per cwt.

THE CROYDON ATMOSPHERIC

The experiments on this new and interesting prin-
ciple, which bid 3 fair to ove:turn all our preconceived
ideas of railway travelling, were resumed this day, in

the presence of Mr. Wilkinson, Chairman of the Com-
pany, and several oF the Directors. Mr. Samuda, as
before, directed the proe.eedins.

On this occasion there were fiva carriages attached to
the piston carriage, the aggregate weight amounting to
probably thirty tons. The first experiment was from
Croydon to the Dartmouth Arms, but from some misun-
derstanding as to time, one of the stationary engines was
not brought into action, and the vacuum obtained in the
tube was in consequence imperfectly developed. The
speed attained, however, was fully equal to that usually
adopted in the working of the locomotive lines, bring on
the average 30 miles an hour. On the return a greater
speed was attained, the barometer at starting indicating
above 21 inches, or 101 Ib,. of atmospheric pressure on
the square inch of the piston. There was no
stopping at nny of the intermediate stations,
and we had a good opportunity of judging of the speed
that might be obtained. The distance of five miles was
accomplished in six minutes and a quarter, giving an
average of forty-eight miles an hour ; but part of this
distance (quarter of a mile) the speed reached 65 miles
an hour. The second upward trip was continued
throughout at an equal speed, and the dis-
tance was accomplished in seven minutes, being
rather above forty-three miles an hour. The return to
Croydon was equally satisractory. The barom ?ter in-
dicated from 26 inches, the maximum, to 11 inches, the
minimum, or from 13 to 5i pounds on each square inch.
The result is such as must satisfy the most sceptical,
bee ruse the experiments have clearly proved that a
greater degree of spe:d can by the atmospheric principle
be communicated in a lesser time than by the present sys-
tem, while all possibility of those fearful accidents that
have so lately happened on diff rent lines,- are completely
avoided. Every day tends to lessen the unimportant dis-
advantages arising from the want of a thorough under-
standing between the Ciffercnt d epartments on the railway,
and it may safely be asserted that when the principle
has had time and ;opportunity given it of arriving at
greater maturity, the superiority over .the locomotive
etvines will be so marked as to silence every caviller.
