LONDON MARKETS.

(now the London New Price current of 'Tuesday.)

Scans.—Last week the Market for Muscovades was
rather languid ; the sales were estimated about 3,000
hhde. ; the prices were unvaried, but at the close of the
Market there appeared some revival in the demand. As
we stated last week, the comparative stock of Sugar is
greatly altered, it is now 5,600 casks less than in 1826,
and the deficiency- of the crop from this! time will lie ap-
parent, and many believe the difference will in a short time
reach 20,000 blids. The buyers were at Market at an
early hour to-dav, and the holders asked at first an advance
of Is. on Friday's prices; as the day proceeded this de-
mand was freely acceded to, and before the close of the
Market a still higher price was asked and obtained. The
Market ls. a ls. 6d. higher than on Friday; the sales are
3,400 casks, and the demand was exceeding brisk till the
latest hour of doing business.—Sugars for refining sold at
70e.. Last week the Refined Market was quiet, and the
prices gave way on account of the eagerness of the Grocers
to sell Lumps and other export goods
.in. proportion to the
Sugars they had cleared for home consumption at the duty.
of 295. per cwt. Lumps were 82s. a 83s. On the arrival
of the Foreign Mails yesterday, the request for goods for
shipping became general, and the prices fully recovered what
they had lost last week.—Large Lumps SU, small 575.
