CITY MARKETS.

PLANTATION SUGARS. —The market has been excessively
flat this week, and the few sales made have been at a decline
of Is a 2s per cwt. on the grocery descriptions, but the
qualities fit for the pans fully maintain their prices: several
of the Refiners are working out in consequence of the high
price of the raw material, they not being able to sell their
goods at a remunerating price ; the importers however still
appear confident of there being a great deficiency in the
stocks before the close of the year, although the present
comparative stocks between this and last year are nearly
the same, and some continue to act upon that opinion.
Delivered last week from the West India Docks, 2,731
hlids. 233 trs.

Stock on hand in the West India Docks on Ist inst.
46,282 idols. 4,401. trs.
Stock on hand in the West India Docks on Oct. 3, J 826,
48,745- hhds. 4,832 trs.

COFFIZE.—The demand has not been very brisk this
week, and the tincloan o,cadinalf part.Os of Plantation
have barely supported last week's quiitathins, white the
clean qualities, suitable to the home-trade, fetch very full
prices only 479 casks of Plantation have been sold by
public sale this week : a parcel of ordinary is reported to
have been sold at 38s.

Delivered last week from the West 'lndia Docks, 715
casks, 1,594 bags.

Stock on band in the West India Docks on the Ist inst.
11,971 casks, 77,149 bags.

Stock on hand in the West India Docks on the 3d of
October, 1826, 14,325 casks, 76,717 bags.
FOREIGN SI/GARS.-84 chests Brazils were offered by
public sale on Tuesday last, but all bought in, good whites,
138 a 445, low ditto 37s a 40s, browns 30s a 325, also 99
hhds and 87 barrels Porto Rico Muscovades, great part
damaged ; the sound sold from 29s 6d a 3456 d, washed
SOs a 325.

REFINED SUGARS.—The accounts from the Continent
not being quite so favourable this week as last, appear to
have thrown a damp on the market, but still there is a
good deal of business doing quietly in low lumps for pack-
ing at the prices quoted ; they are scarce. In low and
middling, single loaves there has been rather more done
this'week for crashing : the contractors for time deliveries
are picking them up to cover their sales ; they are likely
to become very scarce, as the parties who are working
their houses out, in consequence of not being able to get
remunerating prices, chiefly work these descriptions of
goods ; the shipments to the Mediterranean, which gene-
rally run upon these sorts, have lately been very small, the
export trade being very materially checked by the late ad-
vance; for the home trade there is very little doing.
Fkurr.--The first parcel of new Spanish arrived, per
Busy a Malaga, was brought to public sale on Tuesday,
and sold as under, the quality Very good : 800 boxes Mus-
catel Raisins, bunch 51 15s aSi 17s ; 100 half ditto 6/
a 6/ Is; '76 quarter ditto 61 lOs ; 100 boxes and 50 half
boxes Bloom Raisins, a 90s ; 20 barrels Lexia ditto, a 45s ;
20,boxes new Jordan Almonds, a 11/ Ils ; and 200 large
jars Grapes, 22s a 235. There have been more arrivals
since, and are expected in the market to-morrow. The
importation's are much too early, as the country will be
overstocked before any real demand comes on.
.In other
descriptions no alteration can be made ; the demand con-
tinues limited.
