THE MARKETS.

(From the London New Price Current of Friday.)
SUGAR.-The Sugar Market this week has been rather heavy;
the few sales reported are, in several instances, at prices a shade
lower, but no general reduction in the currency can be stated.—
Two public sales of Mauritius Sugars have been brought forward
this week ; a reduction of Is. a Is. 6d. per cwt. must be stated ;
brown, 535. 6d. a 575., yellow, 58s. a 62s The Market this
inorning remained in the same dull and inactive state, but the
great proportion of the holders will not sell at any reduction.—
We, in consequence, state the Market heavy, but no general de-
cline in the prices can be quoted. The Refined Market has been
firm all the week ; the Wholesale Grocers have not purchased
extensively for the home consumption, but the prices are fully
supported, on account of the limited stock ; low goods continue
in request, and no parcels of low Lumps could now be purchased
at a reduction. Molasses are still heavy. There is no alteration
whatever in the Market to-day. The purchases reported are con-
siderable. In Foreign or East India Sugars no business of any
extent is reported.

COFFEE:-The public sale of Coffee on Tuesday went off heavily,
at a reduction of Is. a 2s. ; Cheribon and Sumatra sold at that
reduction, since which there has been no Coffee Market ; there is
a complete stagnation in the trade. There were no public sales
this forenoon ; a few small parcels of Jamaica have been taken fcr
home consumption, and it is reported 350 bags fine ordinary
Brazil have been sold at 51s. but we give the latter only as the
rumour of the day. The Coffee Market may, generally, be stated
heavy. At a late hour the request for Coffee rather revived, 200
bags good ordinary Brazil sold at 50s.
INnrao.—The approaching sale at the India House attracts
great interest ; it will commence on Tuesday. No purchases
whatever by private contract are reported.
TOBACCO.-The purchases by private contract for the week
ending last night inclusive, are only about 60 hhds. small parcels to
the trade for home consumption. At a public sale yesterday of 35
Leaf and Stemmed Virginia sea-damaged Tobacco, the whole
(with the exception of 3 Mids.) sold to the trade at very high prices;
the leaf, one lot, sold at 10/. for export, and one at 11/. ss. ; the
remainder from 111. 17s. to 161. ss. per hhd. ; Strips from 141.
to ISL, one lot sold at 20i. and another 221. 58. to the trade.

HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The market has been heavy
this week, and the prices have given way 6d. a 9d. per cwt.
About the middle of this month very extensive contracts must be
determined, and, as these are what are termed time bargains, a
great proportion are not prepared either to deliver or take the
Tallow, but to pay the differences of the price. A general report
has prevailed, that the extensive sellers will deliver Tallow, which
the buyers are not prepared to take and pay for, the consequence
is the fall we have stated.—Hemp is rather lower.—lu Flax
there is little alteration.

Rust, BRANDY, AND lIOLLANDS.-The sales of Rnm by pri-
vate contract are inconsiderable, the Leewards rather at lower
prices. Strong Jamaica Rums fully support the late prices, 26
over sold at 45. 6d., and " several small parcels 295. to 31s.
to 311. 9d.--Brandy and Geneva are without alteration. At a
late hour a parcel of Leewards, 5 over, sold at 2s. 9d.
IRISH PROVISIONS.—Beef advanced 2s. 6d. early in the week,
since which there has been a similar improvement; and the
Market remains firm at the advance; the rise is owing to the re-
port of the small quantity this season, and the reduced stock.
Pork, on the contrary, is very heavy, and the supply more plen-
tiful.—Bacon is little varied.—Butters are firm ; the fine is par-
ticularly scarce, and rates high.
TEA-Green Teas have advanced lid. per lb. The declara-
tion may be considered as favourable to the trade, and cannot fail
to keep the Market very firm, if not generally at a profit, ex-
cepting Bohea, which will be at least heavy, if not at a discount.
CoTToN.—There is a complete stagnation in the Cotton trade ;
we believe there has not been a bag sold this week, owing, no
doubt, to the rrties wait;ng the event of this day's India-House
sale. The East India Company's sale this day, consisted (after
the withdrawing 1000 Surats) of 9,800 bales Surats; 1,570 Ben-
gal ;57 Madras, and 36 Bourbon. There was a full attendance
of buyers, and the sale proceeded with much 'steadiness : the prices
obtained were—Surat, very ordinary to foul, 4d. a 4id. very
middling to fair, sd. a 54d. ; good fair and good, bid. a sid. ;
Bengal, very ordinary to fair, qd. a 51d. ; Madras, very middling
to fair, sd. a 5-id. ; Bourbon, fair to good fair, 84d. a sid.
About half taken for consumption, the other by foreign houses, in
expeatation of a revival in trade. The Cotton Market may be
stated firm, the prices by private contract fully supported.
FAUIT.-There are no arrivals of new currants yet, and the
trade have very few on hand ; the demand for new Turkey
Figs continues; there is a short supply on band; some of the
importers are demanding higher prices, while others will not sell ;
a public sale of New Muscatels was attempted on Tuesday last,
but not a lot was sold ; for Denias in baskets and Valencias there
is very little demand at present.

RICE.—By public sale on Tuesday, 3,192 bags Bengal Rice,
good white, 17s. 6d. and 18s. ; inferior, 16s. 6d. taken in.—
Cargo at 10s. taken in.
Ous.—There is little alteration in Oil; the transactions this
week are limited.

SPlCES.—Spices are neglected ; no purchases are reported
during the week. The Pimento in to-day's public sale sold at
Sid. a 10d. for the good.
SALTPETRE. —There are few purchasers reported this week. To
day 235. is reported to be realised.
