MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(Prom the New Londox Price Current of yesterday),

SUGAR.—The demand for Muscovades considerably re-
vived last week ; the estimated sales are above 3,000
hhds. and trs. ; the low brown Sugars went off at some
reduction, but •nly in proportion to the former sales of
coloury Sugar; dry brown 445. At the public sale of
300 casks St. Lucia Sugars brown sold at 435., and the
best in sale 521. The stock of Sugar has rather accu-
mulated on account of th• late landings; it is now 4,400
hhds. and trs. more than last year. The deliveries this
week exceeded the corresponding one of last year by 321
hhds. and trs. and 2,257 bags. The estimated sales this
day, including the public sale, are 700 hhds. and trs. ;
the latter consisted of 177 hhds., 41 trs. and 2 brls. St.
Lucia Sugar, a middling parcel, the whole sold 6d. to ls.
lower, 41s. a 50s. 6d., and generally the Market prices
are under the currency of last week. In the Refined
Market there was little alteration as to prices, but there
was rather more firmness among the holders; Mollasses
brisk and higher. There is rather more business doing in
Refined this afternoon ; some purchases made fur Hamburg.
Average prices of Sugar 255. Bd.
EAST INDIA SUGAIL-The demand for Bengal Sugars
continues, and considerable transactions have been reported
at I s. 6d. advance on the late India sale.

FOREIGN SUGAR.—The demand for yellow Havannah
Sugar for export has been general, and the purchases most
extensive ; the estimated 5a1e5..2,600 chests, 265. a 30s.
chiefly about 265. and 27a.; loVe.wisite Pernams 253.
MOLASSES.—There are some sales of West India Mo-
lasses 19s. a 21s.

COFFEE.—The public sales last week were quite incon-
siderable, they were confined to the finer qualities. I3er-
lice and the clean Jamaica Coffee, suited fur home con-
sumption ; all the lower descriptions offered were taken
in, and on which there were scarcely any biddings.
Foreign Coffee continues neglected. The public sales this
forenoon, 50 casks Berbice middling, and of a favourite
mark, sold at 71s. and IS bags of Malabar.
Rust, BRANDY, AND HOLIANDS.—The purchases of
Rum last week were rather limited, consisting of proof
Leewarde at Is. 80. and a shade over ; of under proofs at
Is 7d. Brandy was firm; Geneva neglected.
HENIP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—In Tallow there is little
variation ; Hemp is a shade higlas.r. Flax unvaried.—
Letters from St. Petershurgh are dated sth inst,—
Exchange, 10.1. 9-16. Tallow, 90.
Sraers.—There is a considerable increase in the Inqui-
ries after Spices generally, but no actual sal7s to any ex-
tent are yet reported ; a few purchases of Ginger and Nut-
megs are reported ; gool.quality Cassia Lignea sold at 625.,
good black Pepper 3d.
INDIGO•—There are no purchases of Indigo worth re-
porting.
TOBACCO.—Tobacco continues neglected, the few sales
reported are small parcels to the trade.
Rtes.—Bengal Rice sold 6d. lower last week, fair white
9s. 6d. a 10s. The 2,772 bags East India Rice this day
were of a very ordinary description.
COTTON.—The favourable accounts of the Liverpool
Cotton market towards the close of last week occasion
more business here, but the sales are inconsiderable ; they
eensist of 320 Surats at 3hd. a 3id.—The Cotton public
sale to-day affords no criterion of the Market price, it con-
sisted of 537 bales Surats, all damaged.
Oils.—The prices of common Oils are little varied ;
Linseed rather lower.

TURPENTINE.-The last price was 1 Is. 6d., but we
believe that price is refused for the late arrivals.

tations of Irish provisions : prices which have been rea-
lised. Tierce India Beef, 42 pieces Sib. each, 61. 2s. Gd.

The white Longeloths sold readily, and rather advanced
towards the last ; almost all the other articles went with-
out animation, and by far the greater proportion of the
private trade brought in by the proprietors ; upon the
whole (as usual at this season) the sale was very dull.
FRUIT.-The reduction in the prices of Valentia Raisins
which was stated on Tuesday last has had no effect in fa-
cilitating sales to any extent; the grocers purchase
sparingly, as they hare considerable stocks at the old price
