LONDON MARKETS.

(From the New London Price Current of Friday).
StiGAß.—There is a great alteration in the Sugar
Market this week : the renewal in the demand took
place towards /he close of Tuesday, when about 800
hhds. were sold, but generally at the very lowest
state of the currency ; since then the request has
been exceedingly brisk, and the average sales are
1,300 hhds. each day, at an advance of Is. 6d. a 2s.
per cwt.- At the close of the Market this after-

noon the sales of the four days are estimated at
5,000 hhds., the advance is now fully 425. per cwt.
on the prices of this day week, and the Market is
agaig within 2s. of the late highest currency. In the
Refined Market this week there has been a great
change, the prices have advanced ls. 6d. a 25.; low
lumps, which were offering freely at 825., now sell
for 83s. 6d. The grocers who were purchasing Re-
fined Goods to a considerable extent at the low
prices, have discontinued their purchases on account
of the advance we have stated. Molasses from being
dull at 255., are now brisk 255. 6d. a 265. The Re-
fined Market was very brisk this afternoon. By
public sale this forenoon 152 bags Mauritius Sugar;
the whole sold with uncommon briskness; soft brown
625. 6d. a 635. ; good 645. a 655.; yellow 665. a
68s. ; also 112 chests Brazil fine white, sold 445. 6d.
a 455., ord. 41s. a 425., fine yellow 395. 6d. brown
345.

FOREIGN SUGAR.—The several small parcels of
yellow Havannah which were in the Market have

this week found purchasers from 38s. to 395. In
White Havannahs business to some extent has been
done ; rather a large cargo, of late arrivals, having
been sold to several buyers from 51s. to 525., ac-
cording to quality. In Brazils no sales can be
reported.

EAST INDIA SUGAR.—The East India Company's
sale brought forward on Wednesday, consisted of
11,426 bags Bengal, and the whole found purchasers
from 2s. to 3s. under the price obtained on the
25th July.
WEST INDIA.MOLASSES.—West India Molasses
are again upon the advance; good Antigua sold
at 30s.

TEA.—Rather more doing in the cheap-bought
Congous of last sale.
COFFEE.—There have been considerable public
sales of Coffee this week ; the good and fine coloury
descriptions nearly support the former currency, but
the low qualities and rank have been so forced upon
the Market lately that they were unsaleable; and,
in consequence, in the sale of yesterday very small
parcels of the latter were offered. Fine ordinary La
Guayra in large parcels sold 455. 6d. and 465. ; or-
dinary Havannah 435. 6d. By Public Sale this
forenoon 107 casks, 38 bags British Plantation,
1,893 bags Foreign ; the latter good ordinary St.
Domingo, good ordinary Brazil, and good to fine
ordinary La Guayra. The latter 445. a 465.; the
Brazil 425. 6(1. a 435.; the St. Domingo 435. a
435. 6d.; a great proportion taken in. The Market
is a shade lower for Foreign and ordinary Coffee, and
very dull, except for m►d. coloury descriptions.
FRUlT.—Currents in Trieste packages have been
sold at 87s. by the importer : another small parcel
about sixty-five casks is just arrived and now land-
ing ; Cephalonia and Zante in second hands at 925,
and the Market has an appearance of a further im-
provement if not checked by large arrivals, the stock
on hand at present being small; there are no Red
Smyrna Raisins on hand, consequently the demand
for Valentia Raisins has much increased.

HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The letters from
St. Petersburgh are to the 11th inst. Exchange
10d.. 5-16 ; Tallow 98 to 100 rubles. The
Market here since last Friday has rather improved,
on account of the Trade being out of Stock, and all
the buyers holding off till the extensive arrivals
should take place.—ln Hemp or Flax there is little
alteration.

COTTON.—The sales by private contract are quite
inconsiderable.
