LONDON MARKETS.

(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.) -

SUGAR.-The Sugar market is extremely firm ; the
transactions in Muscovades are not stated so extensive as
during the preceding week, owing probably to the buyers
not being able to purchase on the former terms ; we con-
sider the market is higher. The public sale of St. Lucia
Sugars yesterday went off at full prices, good yellow 555.,
dry brown 475. a 485., dabs 435. The estimated sales
this week are 4,200 hbds. and trs. A great proportion
of the Sugars sold at a late hour this day. The ►narket is
firmly improving. The low Goods meet a ready sale as
they are brought to market, and at full prices, but there is
no advance. The fine G.ouds do not go off so readily for
the home trade, but there is no alteration in price. Mo-
lasses steady. This afternoon the request for low Goods
for export continues, and as there are few supplies, con-
tracts for goods to be ready in a week or two are freely
entered into at the present market rates.
FOREIGN SUGARS.-The inquiries after white Havan-
nah Sugars have been continued, but there are no parcels
on sale ; arrivals of 1,100 to 1,200 chests have taken
place, and they are likely to meet an immediate sale ;
about 300 boxes yellow have been disposed of at full prices,
225. a 325. There are considerable parcels of brown and
yellow Brazil Sugars offering, but there is little demand ;
the few buyers offer prices below the established currency,
and they are rejected; there are no sales of white to report
this week. This day 217 chests Pernams, low brown 17s.
a 18s., good brown and yellow 20s. a 235., good white
295. a 30s.

EAST INDIA Sunmt..--The Mauritius Sugar sale on
Tuesday, 5,287 bags, went off at full prices, and there are
considerable purchases lately by private contract. In
Bengal or Siam there are few transactions, but the in-
quiries after them are continued.
COFFEE.—The public sales this week have not been
extensive, but they have gone off with greater firmness,
and at improving prices. We estimate the advance in
Jamaica, Demerara, and Berbice Coffee this week at Is. a
2s. per cwt. ; the former all sold with briskness, both
the ord. and the fine; a small proportion of the Dutch
was taken in. The Foreign and East India Coffee sold
readily at former prices ; Brazil good ord. 335. a 335. Gd.
good ord. Havannah 345., pale good ord. St. Domingo
sold at 339., ord. Sumatra 30s. a 30s. 6d., Ceylon old.
to good ord. 30s. a 325., good Mysore 50s. a 565. 6d.,
ord. Batavia 31s. Gd. This day 108 casks, 364 bags
British Plantation ; a few lots Dominica sold at higher
rates, and the fair quality of Demerara ; the sale was very
ord. and mixed parcels, but it has gone off with brisk-
ness, fully supporting the advance we have stated.

Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.-The sales of Rum
are not so extensive this week, but the market is firm,
particularly for low Rums ; some small parcels are reported
about ls. 11d. for proof Leewards free on board, and some
good Jamaica 32 over at 3s. Id. In Brandy and Geneva
there is no alteration.

RlCE.—There are more inquiries after Rice. Sales of
fine Carolina are reported at the highest rate, and some
middling white Bengal 11 s. a 12s. This day 800 bags
very good white Bengal sold with briskness at Its. fid. a 13s.
HEM'', FLAX, AND TALLOW.—...The late large arrivals
of Tallow had an unfavourable effect on the market, but
to-day the prices are more firmly maintained. Hemp is
11. higher. In Flax there is little variation.
HOPS.—The late cold nights and stormy weather have
had a very unfavourable effect on Hops. The duty has
fallen to 35,0001., and at a late hour to-day it is stated
about 32,000/. The prices of Hops are advancing, but
there are few transactions to any extent.
TOBACCO.—The transactions in Toba;co awe consider-
able, but they are confined to parcels for the home trade ;
sales, 300 hhds.
°H.S.—The Oil Market is firm;' the advance early in
the week is fully maintained.
