MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Cu: rent of May 20. )
SCGAR.—To-dav an increased desire was evinced to pur-
chase West India -Sugar; the business transacted was very
eectens.'ve in every kind to supply the wants of Grocers and
Refiners. the private purchases reaching 1,700 hhds and trca
a larger quantity sold than for some years in one dayn
so ; the
rates paid were fully equal to those ofTriday ; indeed me
cases 6d per cwt advance was obtained, several parcels of
middling And good yellow Antigua were sold at 46e to 55s
per cwt. A public sale of 116 hhds and 10 tierces of Bar-
badoes went off with spirit, at firm prices; viz., fine yellow
at s!s to 535 6d, gof.d 49s to 51s, ipfiddling 46s to 4RJ 6d,
and low 42s per cwt. The market for all lands of raw Sugar
closed with a firm appearance.
If.FINED.—To-day Refined Sugar was purchased
with
-ultty by the Home Trade, brciwr, lumps fetched 67s to 68s,

and standard lumps 69s to 69s 6d per cwt. The supply of
goods is not ample for the demand. For bonded Crushed
Sugar the inquires were numerous, and prices have advanced
to 37s 6,1 to 38s per cwt, upon which terms many contracts
were entered into for forward delivery.
MAURITIUS. —This afternoon there was no public sale of
Mauritius, but privately some parcels were sold at former
rates to a small advance.

EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Bengal
Sugar offered at public sale amounted to 3,307 bags, the prin-
cipal part of which consisted of white and for which there
was a brisk demand, and the rates paid were fully equal to
those of the last auctions ; indeed, in some cases, they were
rather above. With Madras the market was more liberally
supplied, and 5,752 bags were submitted to public competi-
tion, the whole sold at the full value.

FOREIGN.—To-day there was much activity in the market
for Foreign and Foreign East India Sugar, and an advance in
prices took place ; the private operations are 10,000 chests of
yellow Havannah at 26s to 27s for good and fine, 1,500 chests
low ditto 23s 6d, 3,500 bags Manilla, without certificate, 23s
to 23s 6d, and some parcels of white Pernams and Bahia, but
the prices at present have not transpired.
COFFEE.—To-day there was only a limited demand for
Mocha, and the market being much better supplied a de-
cline in prices of 2s to 3s per cwt took place ; the parcels
otired at public sale amounted to 1,088 bales, 118 A• bales,
and 7 cases. of which 740 bales, 118 1-bales, and 7 cases were
sold. Of Ceylon 195 bags were withdrawn, the quality
being very inferior. 75 bags of Bahia were taken in at
26s for broken and rather mixed, and 23s for sea damaged
first class. Jamaica met with eager purchasers, and 33 casks
6 brls at public sale went at firm rates. The advices come
to hand from the Continental markets stating that a large
demand had sprung up for Coffee, and that prices had risen,
caused a demand here for Foreign Coffee, and some parcels
were sold privately at former rates to a small advance; the
market has decidedly a brisker appearance, indeed some
holders decline to sell for the present.
TEA.—To-day the quantity of Tea submitted to public
competition amounted to 16,444 packages. There was little
desire evinced on the part of the trade to buy, and only
2,000 pkgs were actually sold, at prices showing a decline on
those of the last auction of 2d to 3d on fine Imperial and
Gunpowder, and Id to 2d on scented Orange Pekoe ;
Congou of ordinary quality was a shade cheaper ; in
the value of other kinds of Tea no change oc-
curred ; the biddings for all sorts were languid.
Congou, ordinary sold at BAd to 9d, fresh and new kinds
9d to 10d: Caper, in 10 catty boxes, Is ld ; Orange Pekoe,
fair to fine is 4d, scented good to fine 23 bid to 2s 9d;
Twankay, common is 23; Hyson Skin, common ls ; Young
Hyson, Canton and Twankay kind Is Ild ; Hyson kind 2s 2d
to 2s 9d ; Imperial. Canton, and Twankay kind 2s 3d ; Hyson
kind 2s 7d to 3s ; Gunpowder, Canton, and Twankay kind
2s Ild ; Hyson kind 3s to 3s 8d per lb.
Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—In Jamaica Rum a good
business has been transacted to supply home and export
orders, and full rates have been paid for the better and fine
descriptions, but low and middling sorts, of which the supply
principally consist, a decline in prices of Id per gallon has
occurred ; there has been a demand for Leeward Island Rum,
proof strength at is 7d to Is lid per gallon. Demerara
Rum, the total quantity sold is 140 puns at 2s Gd to
2s 8d for 30 to 34 per cent overproof, and stronger at 2s 9d
to 2s 10d. Calcutta has been in extensive demand upon
former terms. In Brandy good business has been
transacted, but holders are yet unable to obtain
any advance :—Cognac, best brands of the vintage of 1838,
hhds 4s sd, puns 4s 3d ; ditto 1839, hhds 4s 2d, puns 4s ;
ditto 1840, hhds 4s Id, puns 3s lld ; ditto 1841, hhds
4s Id, puns 3slld ; ditto 1842, hhds 3s 10d, puns 3s 8d ; ditto
1843, hhds 3s 9d, puns 3s 7d ; ditto 1844, hhds 35 Bd, puns
3s 6d ; middling and good middling of the various
vintages 2s 8d to 3s 6d, low 2s 5d to 2s 7d, and Bor-
deaux 2s 5d to 2s 6d per gallon. Geneva is more
wanted; is 8d to Is 9d is now the value of common
export sort. English Corn Spirits lOs 2d per gallon cash,
but the distillers are more inclined to sell at that rate.

RICE.—In Bengal an extensive business has been tran-
sacted, and at very full rates; the whole of the various par-
cels offered at auction were disposed of to eager purchasers;
fine bold clean white went at 12s, good white but rather
dusty lls 6d to 12s, good middling ditto lls to lls 6d, mid.-
ding ditto 11s, low ditto lOs 6d to I Is, small broken very
dusty lOs 6d to lls, sea damaged first and second class
lOs to lls 6d, third and fourth class 5s 6d to lOs per cwt. Of
Foreign East India there is yet little to be had, and it is
much wanted ; Madras yellow at 9s to 10s, Java white
lOs 6d to 12s, and yellow 103 to lOs fid per cwt. For Caro-
lina prices remain at 23s to 28s, but for Patna they have
slightly risen, several parcels having been sold at 14s 6d to
18s per cwt. The supply of both is yet small.
SAGO.—The demand has been very good by private treaty,
and prices are on the advance ; 90 boxes at public sale this
afternoon were sold at 27s to 27s 6d per cwt for small fine
white Pearl.

SPICES. —This afternoon Malabar Pepper met with little
attention, and of 1,412 bags at public sale a part only sold at
rather lower rates; fine heavy brown selling at 3id to 3d,
good 3d to 34d, and grey 3Ad per lb. Pimento is much in
request, and 135 bags at public sale sold at stiffer rates, viz.,
good middling at 3d to middling 2Ld, good ordinary
2id, and sea damaged 2gd to 28d per lb.
INDIGO—The quarterly sale of East India has been fixed
for the Bth July, the quantity at present declared is 2,000
chests ; the general opinion is that a very large quantity will
be brought forward—by several of the trade it is estimated
at 16,000 chests. The market is in a dull state. I❑ Spanish
little has been done, and former prices are not obtainable.
Ons.—This afternoon at public sale 30 tuns of Sperm
Oil went at 831 15s to 841 15s, and 50 tuns Southern at
26/ 15s to 27110 s per tun. Linseed Oil met with more atten-
tion, and a large business was done privately at 25s per cwt
on the spot.
TALLOW.—No further advance has taken place in the
value of Russian, but former rates are well sustained. There
has been a large business transacted on the spot, soap-
makers and chandlers purchasing freely, 38s 6d to 39s per
cwt, being the current rates paid for P.Y. Candle of first qua-
lity. For delivery a good deal has been done at 39s 9d to 40s
per cwt for the last three months of the year. Of Town Tallow
the market has been nearly cleared at 39s to 39s 6d net cash :
the supply is small for the period of the year. Other kinds
of Tallow have been in excellent request, upon former ad-
vanced terms.
