TALLOW MARKET.

The demand continued dull, and prices were firmly
maintained, with a decidedly better feeling in the
trade. P. Y. Candle on the spot, 48s. 6d., to 485.9 d.
per cwt.
TEA MARKET.

Business was entirely suspended, the Trnde waiting
for the large public sale declared for Thursday next.
The deliveries were good.

(From the London New Price Current of October 11.)
SUGAR.—lmporters of West India Al uscovadoes have
refused to submit to any further decline, and prices re-
main as last quoted. To-day importers of West India
Sugar evinced firmness, and obtained prices equal to
those of Friday.
This afternoon the biddings were brisk ; at a pubic
sale of 131 hhds Barbadoes Sugar, the whole found pur-
chasers, and at full rates—fine yellow fetched 67s 6d
to 68s 6d, good 64s 6d to 665, mid 63s to 645, low 61s
per cwt.
.REFINED.—The market has presented a dull appear-
ance for Refined Goods, and prices have further declined.
To-day the Grocers purchased Refined Sugar sparingly,
and prices are still on the decline, standard lumps
74s 6d to 755, and brown grocery 72s to 73s per cwt.
Pieces and Bastards were little asked for, but trade met
with a good sale at 23s 6d to 30s 6d. Bonded Crushed
Sugar sells freely at former rates.
MAURITIUS.—Previous rates have been sustained.
This rtfternoon buyers came forward with more alacrity,
and 5,238 bags at public sale were all disposed of at full
rates,—fine yellow fetched 65s to 65s 6d, good mid to
good 60s to 645, mid 56s to 59s 6(I, low 54s to 55s 6d,
mid to fine brown 50s to 545, low 47s to 49s 6d per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon a good demand existed
for Bengal Sugar ; 344 bags in bond and 869 bags duty
paid were offered at auction and all sold at full rates, low
to good white duty paid went at 61s to 665, mid yellow
60s to 63s ; in bond they went at 35s to 40s for mid and
good mid white, and damp brown 27s to 335.
FOREIGN.—Holders of all descriptions are firm, and
supply the market sparingly.
To-day there was no public sale, and little business
' was done by private treaty imeither Brazil or Havannah,
but holders remain firm and very few parcels are on the
market ; 1,200 boxes Havannah are declared fur auction.
MOLASSES.—For West India steady rates have been
paid. St. Lucia 265, and Dominica and Montserrat 28s
to 295. Bengal Syrup at 24s to 25s Gd, and Foreign
Molasses at 7s to 7s 3d per cwt.
COFFEE.—The dulness in the market for West India
Coffee has increased, and a greater desire has been
shown on the part of the merchants to sell, who have
submitted to a reduction on former rates of 4s to 5s for
ord and fine ord, and 3s per cwt for all other kinds.
To-day Ceylon Coffee was in better request, the low
prices tempting the trade to come forward more freely,
and a large parcel of good ord was disposed of by private
contract at 60a Gd per cwt. For other kinds of Coffee,
however, there was little inquiry, either for home use or
export, but holders generally are not disposed to further
give way in price ; at auction 200 bags Ceylon were
offered, and nearly all sold—mid Plantation sort at 85s
6d to 87s, fine fine ord 72s to 75s 6d, pea berry 98s,
triage 32s to 525, fine ordinary pale taken in at 655, 64s
6d offered.

COCOA.—Although prices rule low for West India,
still the trade have operated with caution by private
contract, and only 53 bags Grenada have been offered at
auction which went at 35s to 36s 6d for good red. Fo-
reign is firm in price.
TEA.—The market has been in a dull state since our
last report, and the transactions in both black and green
descriptions have been upon a very small scale, but
holders generally are unwilling to further give way
in price. _ _

To-day the business transacted in the Tea market was
extremely limited, the attention of the trade being di-
rected to the large public sales declared, and prices are
looking downward ; sound common Congou cash cannot
be quoted above Is 7d per lb. The cause of the heavi-
ness in the market is to be attributed to the large par-
cels that have and are still to be brought to public sale,
iudeed the quantity is much larger than the wants of the
trade.

SPlCES.—Advanced rates for Cassia Lignea, at 91s to
91s 6d for middling, and ordinary quality 85s. Prices
are looking up for East India Ginger, Malabar at 40s to
76s for middling to very fine bold quality ; West India
has been in fair request, at previous rates. Black Pep-
per at the previous currency—Malabar fine shot at 4,-Id,
middling and good 3i-d to 34d ; Sumatra common 2id to

white, and good yellow 9s 6d, being rather lower.
RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—For Jamaica Rum
prices have suffered a further depression of Id per gallon;
28 to 33 per cent, over proof at 3s to 3s 3d, 34 to 36
over fine quality 3s 4d to 3s 6d. Leewards at Is 8d to

To-day the demand for West India Rum was good?
and holders were at,'!.sa inclined to sell ; Jamaica of fine
and favourite marks fetched 3s 10d to 4s 3d, very fine
high flavoured 5s 3d; proof Leewards sold at 15 Sid to
is 9d ; East India more inquired for at former rates ;
the market for rum altogether is looking more healthy.
Oms.—Holders of common Fish Oils have obtained
an advance on former rates of 20s for Southern, and 105
for all other descriptions, the demand having been good
from the home trade, and the supply at markev
small ; at auction 86 tuns Southern went briskly
at 361 5s to 43/ for common to fine pale quality,
and by private contract Pale Seal has been
disposed of at 431 lOs to 44/, yellow and straw colour 371
to 421 10s, brown 35/ 5s to 36/ lOs per tun, and 0-4
351 6s to 351 lOs per tun. All the parcels offered have
been cleared off the market, anl the stock continues on
the decrease ; holders show much firmness. Sperm

f
disposed of at 761 15s to 77/ for American, at 50‘
to 80/ 15s for fine of British fishing, and klead-
matter at 83/5s to 8415 s per tun ; more
holders show
firmness. The market fur Linseed Oil was quiet in Ib°
middle part of last week, and prices declined ; but duril
the last few days a good demand has sprung up, an
stiffer rates have been given ; large sales on the spot
have been made at 345, and for delivery at 33s 3d to
33s 9d per cwt—at which crushers are firm, the quantity
making is only moderate. Rape has b9en in good re-
quest ; pale at 44s 9d, to brown at 43s 9d to 445, few
parcels are offering for sale. There are several purchasers
of Olive Oil, and prices are rising ; Gallipoli has been
selling at 571 to 571 lOs ; Spanish 531 to 54/, and Bar"
' has been selling at 501 lOs to 521 r tun ; the
