LONDON MARKETS.

(From the. Neu' London Price Current of Tuesday.)
S uaa rt.-The late large arrivals have prevented trans-
actions to any extent. Few purchases were effected, in
the anticipation of a large 'show this week; the holders,
heWever, did...not give way; the prices were unvaried ; the
sales averaged about '7OO hogsheads each day. In the Re-
fined Market last week, the transactions were not extensive,
and the prices were but little varied.
FOREIGI4 SUGAR. -The purchases effected by private
contract dnring the last week were about 500 chests Ha-
vannah, low mid. to `mid. white, 48s. to 50s. ;good, 525. ;
yellow, 40s. ,By public sale above 1,100 chests brown
and yellow Havannah were offered, and nearly all with-
drawn ; they appeared to be taken in rather above the
market currency; some damaged sold 369. 6d. to 375.
EAST INDIA SUGARS.-The sale of the 17,000 bags at
the East India House went off with great briskness--the
prices were fully maintained. The two sales of Mauritius
Sugar, 3,400 bags, sold freely at former prices;. dry
brown, 60s. to 635. ; yellow, 645. to 6'7s. The market
of this day, up to one o'clock, was heavy, and the prices
were the same as on the last market day.
TEA.-Bohea per lb. •Is. 7d. to Is. 101 d. ; • Hyson per
lb. ss. to ss. 4d. ; Congou 2s. 6d. to 3s. 044. ; ',bung
Hyson 3s. 6d. to 3s. 11d. This market continues steady.
COFFEE.-The Coffee market was steady in price at the
opening of the market this day. During the whole of the
last week there was rather a heaviness, and a large pro-
portion of the quantity brought forward at public sale was
taken in-Ood ordinary Domingo at 455.
SPICES.-The demand for Spices has considerably sub-
sided, and the prices are again rather lower. At public
sale last week, above 400 bags unsifted Pepper sold from
tid. to 4-Id; ; the sifted was withdrawn.---Nutmegs,
which were at 3s. 11d. to 4s. 3d., are to-day 3s. 9d. to 49.
Rog, BRANDY, ♦ND HOLLANDS. -The contract for
100,000• galls. Rum was taken at 2s. I id. There are
buyers of Leewards at 2s. 2d., sellers at 2s. 3d., but little
doing. In Brandy or Geneva no alteration.
TOBACCO.-The purchases lately are quite inconii;
derable ; there have been many inquiries, but we believe
few actual sales have taken place.
Ous.-The first accounts of the success of this year's
Greenland Fishery were yesterday received ; they were
favourable, but as a few vessels went to that Fishery (the
great proportion having gone to Davis's Straits) no effect
was produced on the Market.-Spermaceti and Rape Oils
are considerably higher.
SALTPETRE..-The demand for Saltpetre has in some
degree subsided, but the late prices are maintained.
TURPENTINE.-There has been some demand for Tur-
pentine ; the new sold at 145., old 13s.
INmoo.-This market continues steady. The last sales
at Liverpool went off at full prices. An advance of front
4d. to 6d. per lb. has been realised, but this'advance is not
general.

COTTON.—The Cotton market last week was steady, but
without briskness. The purchases are about 3,000 bags,
the prices unvaried.
PROVISIONS.—In Beef or Pork there is little alteration ;
negociations for the sale of parcels of Foreign have com-
menced, but we believe no actual sales have yet been made.
Bacon continues in demand. Butters are lower ; the ar-
rivals last week are 9,100 casks from Ireland, and of Fo-
reign about 5,400 casks.
HOPS.—Kent pockets, 4/. to 4/. 15s. ; Sussex poe kets,
3/. 12s. to 4/. 4s. ; Kent bags, 3/. ss. to 4/. 4s. ; Sussex
bags, 2/. 199. to 31. 14s.
The accounts from the Hop districts continue favour-
able. Where the bines are strong they are advancing
rapidly, and show burr where they are weakly. It is
thought that the season will be two or three weeks later
than last year. The price of Hops remains nominal. The
duty varies from 106,0001. to 110,000/. The latter, how-
ever, is now the nearest estimate.
