MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the Landon New Price Current of yesterday.)

SUGAR.—There has been quite a panic in the Sugar Market,
arising from the late extensive arrivals, and the holders forcing
sales immediately on the landing of the goods. At the public sale
of old West India Muscovades, prices 2s. lower were submitted
to ; ordinary dry brown Muscovades, 475. fxL ; coloury, 4.95, ;
this fall has not been followed generally in the market, but there
is no doubt West India Muscovades must be stated Is. a Is, Oa
lower, and Is. fid. at th reduction. The estimated sales of the
week are '2,000 hhds. and tierces. The good Sugars sell at fair
paces; the middling and low are very dull. In the Refined Mar-
ket the prices.are a shade lower, without facilitating sales to any
extent. Molasses are rather lower. The Refined Market is still
very heavy • some large and small lumps sold together 735. Oil. a
745.; some iarge about fid. a Is. under the quoted prices ; but they
cannot be given as a fair criterion of the market. The grocers are
purchasing, fine goods snore freely for home consumption. Several
considerable sales are reported.
. .

EAST INDIA SUG A R.—The late public sales and great re-
duction in the prices of Mauritius Sugar attracted much attention,
and produCed a demand by private contract, but no parcels could,
be purchased on the low terms of the public sales. By public
sale this day 2,908 bags Mauritius Sugar, and 251 bags of Siam,
the Litter were of, inferior quality, and sold mid. white at 265. a
31s. fsd. ; the Mauritius of good quality, and the proportion sold
went off at full prices ; the demand was languid, but the holders
would not submit to any further reduction; good white Bengal
sold at 365. _ _ _ _

FOREIGN SUGAR.-Several parcels of the late arrivals of
Brazil Sugar are on show, but there are no sales.
WEST INDIA MOLASSES.-There is no alteration in prices.
The market is heavy.
COFFEE.-The late large arrivals of Coffee, and the imme-
diate advertisement of very large parcels at public sale, had an un-
favourable effect on the market ; a general reduction of Is. a 2s.
must be stated, and in good middling Jamaica the fall is 3s. a 4s. ;
good middling Jamaica, 665. a 68s. ; good ordinary coloury Brazil,
345. 641. a 355: This forenoon the public sales consisted of 1,022
bags East India, 282 bags Brazil, and '7O casks Jamaica; good or-
dinary coloury, and fine ordinary Brazil taken in 355. a 355. 6d. ;
good ordinary Cheribon sold 31s. 6d. a 35.5. 6d. ; ordinary Sumatra
taken in at 130 s. ; fine fine ordinary and ordinary middling Ja-
maica, 51s. a 545. Cal. The Coffee sold to-day went at a further
reduction of Is. per cwt.
RUM, BR ANDY„hiND HOLLANDS.-The holders of
Rum have given way about Id. per gallon ; the consequence has
been a considerable revival in the trade. The sales are parcels of
proofs-4 and 5 over, 2s. 2d. a 2s. 21,4 d. ;'7 and 8 over, 2s. 4d.-
We believe no Jamaica Rum, to any extent, has been sold. Small
parcels of Brandy and Geneva continue to be taken for shipping;
the prices arc unvaried.
HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.-Tallow continues dull,
and the prices are a shade lower. In Hemp or Flax there is no
alteration worth reporting.
INDIGO-The East India Company's sale of Indigo, which
commenced on the 14th inst., terminated on Tuesday; it con-
tained originally 4,010 chests, of which 455 chests Bengal, and 97
chests Madras, together 552 chests, were withdrawn. The quantity
actually exposed to sale was 3,488 chests. The sale commenced
with 1,639 ch • sts belonging to the Company, which having been
as usual taxed considrably under their value, were all sold.
There was not much animation at the beginning of the sale, but
towards the conclusion there was more spirit, and better prices
were obtained. The proprietors have bought in a very trifling
quantity, and of this a greet proportion consists of Madras. As
compared with the former sale, good and fine Bengal Indigo
went about 3d, per lb. lower, good mid. and mid. 6d. a is. per lb.,
and consuming sorts about 3d, per lb. lower; good Oudes sold
at a reduction of about 6d. per lb., and ord. and low Oudes at
nearly the same prices as the last sale. Fine and good Madras
obtained about the former sale's prices ; and mid. and ord. Ma-
dras went about 6d. per lb. lower. The quantities and qualities :
about 250 chests fine and extra fine Bengal, 1,260 chests mid. and
good shipping, 1,200 chests consuming and low mid., 230 chests
low and ordinary, 164 chests Oude, mostly good and fine, 936
chests Madras, good, mid. and ordinary. The Market, since the
India House sale, continued in a state of complete inactivity till
yesterday, when inquiries considerably increased, and picked lots
sold at a premium. The demand is entirely confined to shipping
orders.-At public sale a small parcel Guatemala Indigo sold at
fair prices considering the dull state of the trade ; the prices were
3s. Bd. a 4s. 7cl.
WOOL-By public sale on Wednesday, 514 bags Spanish
Wool, Rs. Ily2d. a Is. 6d. per lb. ; F. 10.01. a Is. 2d. ; S. 10d. a
Is. Id. ; A. &I. a 10d. K. a Bd. •T. 6d.-By public sale on
Thursday : 138 bales Van Diemen's Laud Wool 2•7/d. a Is. 114 d, ;
8 bales German Wool Is. 110. a Is. 2!4c1. ; I bale Jamaica Wool
'44(1 ; 71 bales Danish or Iceland Wool 2lid. a 4y2d. per lb. ;
8 bales German withdrawn. The quality of the above Wool,
generally, was very bad, but prices were paid equal to their
fair value. Trade very dull.
OI LS ....There is no alteration in Oils.

SALTPETRE.. Saltpetre cont 'flues firm.
corroN.—The Cotton Market continues languid. The sales
for the week ending last night inclusive, consist of 220 Bengal at
3%d a .110. ; 570 Surat at 2%d. a 4,50, ; 270 Bowed at sy2d. a
5%c1. ; CO Madras at ,11/4. a 4Md.
IRISH PROVISIONS.—There is little alteration In the price
of Provisions. The Market is dull.

TOBACCO:—There are no sales of Tobacco for export. The
demand for home consumption seems to be increasing, about
150 hhds. have been sold to manufacturers and for the country
trade ; the prices are unvariod
COCHINE A L.—By public sale 42 serons of Cochineal sold at a
further reduction of tid. per lb., and went below the reduced
. _ .

prices at Liverpool ; the whole fine Honduras silver Ss. lOd. a
Os. 4d., a few particular lots Os. Bd.
RI C E.—T,he prices of Rice must be considered nominal till the
large public sales of East India are brought forward.
SPICES,—This day 203 bags of good white Pepper, seine pro,
portion sold 4d. a sd. Good Pimento q.d.
TEA.—The advance on Boheas in large chestscontinues at 2d.
per lb., half chests are at /id to Id. premium. Twankays for the
lower quality are in some demand at !id. per 10. profit on sales
cost • Congous are not in much request.
FRUlT.—There is no alteration to notice; the demand con-
tinues very languid, both for home trade and export ; for the
latter, the accounts from abroad are very unfavourable.
