COLONIAL MARKETS.

SUGAR.—There continues to be a fair demand for
all descriptions of British Plantation, both from the
Grocers and Refiners, but particularly the good and
fine sorts, which are very scarce, for which a further
advance of fully 6d has been ohtained, and in some
instances Is. About '2,000 hhds have been sold, inclu-
sive of 100 !Aids Barbadoes brought to auction,
which found ready buyers, and went off with spirit
at 62s to 68s 6d for mid to fine quality, which
prices fully establish the above advance. Mo-
lasses.—Fully previous prices have been obtained
for the few parcels sold—viz., 26s to 32s for mid
to very fine quality. Mauritius.—The trans-
actions have not been extensive, owing to the
very few parcels ofl'ering ; higher prices have, how-
ever, been obtained for the quantity sold. Bengal.-
2,596 bags, all sold briskly at 60s 6d to 70s 6d for
good yellow to fine white Benares, being fully 6d to
is dearer. Some parcels have been disposed of pri-
vately, including about 2,000 bags Dhobah, which
sold at comparatively high prices. Foreign.—The
increased demand for export has led to a very exten-
sive business, the transactions consisting of nearly
1,000 chests Brazils, chiefly brown and yellow
Bahia at 15s to 18s ; a small portion low to
good white Pernambuco at 12s to 24s ; also 7,000
bags Manilla at 17s ; and 100 hhds Porto Rico at 18s
(for refining in bond), all of which are rather higher
prices. Refined—Rather higher prices have again
been paid for grocery descriptions, and a fair business
continues to be done. Forcrushed there is very little
inquiry, although a further trifling decline has been
submitted to, fine quality having been sold at 255.
COFFEE.—This article continues almost without
demand for nearly all descriptions, and the public
sales, which have contained 145 casks 137 barrels
British Plantation, 909 bags Ceylon, 322 bales
Mocha, 2,544 bags East India, and 299 bags La-
guayra, went off very heavily, and only partly sold at
about former prices for the British Plantation, but
mostly in small lots. The Ceylon was nearly all
withdrawn (excepting a few lots colory, which sold
at 62s to 635) at 61s 6d for good ordinary palish
quality, there being no purchasers at last week's
prices. Some part of the Mocha found buyers at
67s to 100 s for middling to fine clear garbled,
which are very low prices, and considerably under
the previous nominal value. Only about one-third
of the East India was disposed of at 45s to 51s 6d for
good bold yellowish to fine brown Dutch Company's
Java, and a few lots greenish ditto, at 42s 6d, being
about previous prices, excepting for the latter de-
scription, which it rather cheaper. Good ord Green
and yellowish Singapore Java were taken in at 34s
to 355, and goodord Padang sold at 265, which are
also lower rates. The Laguayra was taken in above
the value, viz., at 42s for fine ord coloury quality but
foxy. Foreign sorts continue without inquiry ; a few
small parcels of good to fine Rio have been sold pri-
vately at 32s to 335.
CocoA.—Few transactions have taken place, there
being at present scarcely any demand.
Ruas.—There has been less business done than last
week, but fully firmer prices have been obtained ; 150
puns Jamaica sold at 3s ld to 3s 5d for 30 to 35 per
cent. overproof, and 100 puns Leeward Island at Is 9d
for proof strength, and fine brown ditto at Is 10d.
RICE continues almost without inquiry, and very
little business has been done.
SALTPETRE.—There has been very little demand
for this article, and consequently few transactions
have taken place. Nitrate of Soda remains neglected,
and purchases could be made at rather lower rates.
SPICES.—In Cassia or Pimento very little business
has been done, only 105 bags of the latter having been
brought to auction, which sold 2id to 24d for mid
quality.
COTTON.—The demand for this article has rather
subsided, but for the parcels sold firmer rates have been
obtained.
TEA.—The market has remained in a quiet state,
but news being hourly expected may impart some
feature to it. The stock in London is 28,554,5731bs
against 25,786,2871bs at this time last year. There
is a steady trade both for export and home consump-
tion. The current prices have been is 7d to 2s 8d
for Congou, is 9d to 3s for Souchong, is 7kd to 2s ld
for Twankay, 2s 2d to 5s for Hyson, and is 6d to
4S 6d for Gunpowder.
TALLow.—South American has been in small
supply, and has had a good sale at 46s 6d to 49s for
the fine sorts. The stock and supply are both mode-
rate. Russia is also in good request at firm prices,
P.Y.C. on the spot, 48s 6d to 48s 9d, and for January
49s per cwt.
HEMP.—The deliveries last month were 1,153 tons.
The stock is 4,665 tons, being below that of last year.
Clean is quoted at 31s 10d per cwt.
FLAI.—The deliveries last month were 161 tons.
The stock is 928 tons.
DRYSALTERY.—Indigo is steady. Lac Dye in
some instances a shade dearer. Cochineal in fuller
supply, but at steady prices. Brimstone in more
demand ; and Cream of Tartar firm.
TOBACCO.—The market has been quiet, but a steady
business is doing. Virginia is rather firmer. Ken-
tucky strips are 4-d. to 6id. ; Havanna Segars have
sold cheaper, and stalks at a slight advance. The
stock is 20,690 hhds, against 21,414 hhds at this
time last year.

( From the London New Price Current of November 4.)
SUGAR.—The market for British Plantation Sugar
has presented a lively appearance since our last account.
The Grocers have been anxious to purchase yellow de-
scriptions, and have each day taken all the parcels
offered for sale off the market at a further advance of 6d
per cwt.
To-day importers of West India Muscovadoes Sugar
manifested firmness, and obtained fully former rates for
all sorts, but there was less activity in the market, and
only a limited business was transacted.
REFINED.—Since this day week there has been a
brisk demand for all descriptions of Refined Sugar for
home consumption, and prices have further advanced 6d
to is per cwt. To-day Refined Sugar was in good re-
quest, and the market closed firmly ; standard lumps at
775, and brown Grocery lumps 75s to 75s 6d per cwt.
Bonded Crushed sells freely at 25s for the best. In
other articles there is no change.
MAURITIUS.—The demand has been good by private
contract, and the parcels of yellow offering have been
readily cleared off the market at an advance of 6d per
cwt, and other descriptions have brought stiffer rates,
Only 5,000 bags are left on importers' hands.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal sold with less
spirit, and prices declined is per cwt for brown and
yellow, but white brought full rates.
FOREIGN.—To-day importers of Brazil were more
inclined to sell ; the demand was, however, good for
nearly all kinds of Foreign.
MoLAssEs.--Holders of West India are firm ; fine
sorts have brought stiffer rates, and other kinds full
prices.
COME.—Importers of West India Coffee have been
less desirous to sell this week, and former prices have
been sustained.
This afternoon the market was in a languid state for Cof-
fee : at auction East India sold as follows—fine ordinary
pale Uaitilla at 46s to 46s 6d, fine ord Batavia 42s 6d,
