pally of 1,264 bags Bengal, and 2,102 bags Madras, which

soft to fine yellow ditto, 46s Gd to 54s 6d. The only transactions
which have transpired privately, worth reporting, consist of
some large parcels of crushed (amouning to about 200 tons);
which have been sold at 35s to 35s 6(1, being a further reduc-
tion of is to 2s. The quantity of British Plantation landed

tation kind of Ceylon sold readily at 54s to 70s for
fine ord to mid colory quality, being fully former rates; the

mixed good ord to fine ord, which are about previous prices.
Nearly all the Mocha was likewise taken in chiefly at 56s to
58s for mid clean garbled,

SUGAIt.—To-day importers of British Plantation Sugar
insisted upon former prices for all descriptions, but there was
only a limited business transacted. At auction 100 hhds of
Barbadoes sold at the full worth.
MAURITIvs.—This afternoon several inquiries existed pri-
vately, and 203 bags at auction were si4cl at full rates, low
yellow brought 465, middling 47s 6d, tine brown 44s 6d to
455, washed 37s 6d to 455, and syrupy 38s to 435 per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon four parcels of Bengal Sugar,
amounting to 8,171 bags, were submitted to public compe-
tition ; the whole found purchasers. Of Ceylon 100 casks
were sold. Madras is wanted, and at auction 203 bags were
sold at full rates.
lota-AG:v.—Any material decline in the value of Foreign
Sugar is still prevented by holders continuing to supply the
market sparingly; but the demand is still falling off for all
descriptions, and stocks are increasing. The business trans-
acted privately in yellow Havannah has been extremely
limited, although there aresellersat afurther decline in prices.
REFINED.—To-day several parcels of Refined goods were
taken by the home trade, in consequence of 64s being ac-
cepted fur brawn, and 65s per cwt for standard lumps. The
value of bonded crushed Sugar is 35s per cwt, but at which a
fair business has been done in the best quality.
MoLAssEs.—West India is wanted, and full prices are
offered, but business has been checked by the stock being
principally in second hands. The quantity here is much less
than it was last year. Bengal Treacle is wanted, and tine
fetched 20s per cwt.
COFFEF.—This afternoon there was little desire shown to
purchase Ceylon Coffee, and 1,660 bags at auction were only
in part sold at rather lower rates for Native, good ordinary
selling at 46s to 475, very good ordinary 50s, black 8s to 17s,
bold Triage 40s. The Plantation barely sustainedOs th6de former
value, fine ordinary pale went at 603 to G, good
ordinary grey 55s 6d to 575, pea berry 66s to 68s 6d, sea
damaged of the various sorts went at 24s to 635,
country n cla 'ed 475. The inarkzt is quiet for Mocha, and
35 bales at public sale were taken in, middling brownish at
565, bold Triage 43e to 45e1 and inferior 4/06, 100 bags of
