THE MARKETS.

(From the London New Price Current of Friday.)
SuGA a.—The purchasers of Muscovades continue general and
extensive; the average this week is again 1,000 hhds. per day,
but as the Importers have met the buyers freely, there has been
no further improvement in the prices. The Sugar. Market is
firm, but there ie not quite so much business doing this after-
noon. In the Refined Market there would have been extensive
buying, but there are no adequate supplies of low goods, which
are the descriptions chiefly in request ; the advance of Is. has
been fully maintained. The wholesale Grocers have purchased
fine goods rather freely for the home consumption. Molasses
are steady. The buyers of low goods for export are not so eager
to purchase to-day, but the prices are supported. Molasses are
brisk at an advance. In Foreign Sugars no purchases are lately
reported. The Mauritius Sugars on Tuesday 2,857 bags went
off heavily at rather lower prices, but the whole were mixed, and
a great proportion washed ; fhe sale could not, in consequence,
be considered as a fair criterion of the market currency.

COEFEE.—The public sales this week have gone off heavily,
and' only a small proportion of the quantity brought forward has
been disposed .of; it is, therefore, difficult to give correct quota-
tions ; the Market is, however, undoubtedly lower ; the sales ad-
vertised in Holland have added to our previously very depressed
trade. There were no public or private sales of Coffee to-day.
495. have been refused for 400 bags good St. Domingo.
Cocoa—By private sale 1,517 bags good Brasil Cocoa sold 335.
6(1. 375.

INDlGo—lndigo is not brisk, but several sales have been effected,
at an advance of 6d. to 9d. per lb. on the India House prices for
the middling and fine, and 4d. per lb. on the Oude.
NAVAL STORES—There is a great demand for rough Turpen-
tine, which is held at high prices. Rosin has advaneed consider-
ably. In other articles there is little alteration.

ifEmp, FLAX, AND TALLow.—The Tallow market appears
again to be improved ; the request yesterday was brisk and the ad-
vance was fully 6d per cwt. Flax continues in request, and the
late advance is maintained. Hemp is without variation. By
public sale to-day 200 casks of fine Tallow, just arrived from
Hambro', one lot 395., remainder 38s. 6d. a 38s. 9d.
Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The market for Leeward
Island Rum has given way 2d. to 3d. per gall. several sales have
been effected privately at low prices, which are now transpiring.
iOO punchs. Demerara four and five over about 2s. 6d. per gall. ;
since then the market is again lower, and, yesterday proofs were
offered in small parcels at that price; the finer descriptions of
Jamaica continue in request ; the ordinary qualities of Jamaica
and inferior strengths are very unsaleable. Brandy is lower, few
sales are effected. Geneva is without variation. At a late hour
some purchases of Leewards were reported ; the market more firm.
TortAcco.—The request for good Strips for the home trade
has been extensive; it is believed that the quantity of this de-
scription suitable for the trade is in short supply, the import
being so inconsiderable. The only inquiries for export are for
the dark coloured, but, of the latter, the sales are still inconsi-
derable.

hist! PROVISIONS.—Beef and Pork are rather heavy, but no
reduction in the prices can be stated. Bacon has given way.
The return of frost has improved the demand for Butters.
COTTON. —The Cotton market continues steady ; the purchases
for the week ending last night inclusive, consist of 600 Surat, at
4P. a sd. ; 300 Bengal, 4id. a ;30 Bowed, 6.1 d. in
bond ; 50 Demerara, 10d. duty paid. At Liverpool the Cotton
market is steady, 2,000 bags sold on Wednesday. At Manches-
ter trade is very dull.

FRUIT—In Currants there is no alteration. There are no fur-
ther arrivals ; several small parcels of new Red Smyrna Raisins
have been sold. The demand for new Turkey Figs is reviving ;
of Denial in baskets some sales have been made, the greater part
of the new on hand being of a very inferior description, causes the
good qualities to be looked after, although they have sold at lower
prices. Valentias in boxes are scarcely inquired after, the holders
are very firm in their demand, and appoar pretty certain of a
short importation. Of new Muscatels, which are almost unsale-
able, there are further arrivals.
TEA-A little more inquiry has been made within these last
few days, but chiefly confined to particular breaks, which have
been obtained at a small advance.
OiLs—Oils are heavy.

SeicEs.—Spices are entirely neglected. Some Nutmegs bought
at 4s. 2d. are reported to be sold under 3s. 6d. By public sale
