At a late hour this afternoon the Rum Market continued
very firm, hut few purchases are reported. In Brandy or
Geneva there is no alteration.

TEA.—The Tea sale finished yesterday. We are fa-
ured with the following particulars by a correspondent.
Boheas are of rather better quality than usual, and about
2d. per lb. cheaper.

Ordinary. Congous in half chests and Congou 'packages
are a fair average sample, and sold considerably lower
than last sale. Common Congous were never better
bought, and may be quoted at 3d. per lb. less ; but those
of the finer kinds of mid. and strong black leaf are full 2d.
dearer, and from the very limited supply will no doubt
maintain their prices.

Common Hysons are 6d., and the finest kind 4d. per lb.
dearer. In the Private Trade some good purchases Lave
been made. The 20th break of Twankay has already
fetched id. per lb. profit, being considered by many of
the trade to have sold considerably under its value.
