CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of Grain this week are moderatt, of Flour
good, and many parcels of Wheat and Barley remaining
on hand, there is no lack of either of those articles. At
present the quantity of English and Irish Oats offering is
mall, but a large supply from Ireland is expected shortly.
The Wheat and Barley trades are very dull at Monday's
prices, and both likely to be lower. Beans and Pease
maintain last quotations. Oats fully support the terms
of Monday last. Flour meets a very dull sale at former
ratesr

CITY MARKETS-(TWO O'CLOCK.)

PLANTATION SUGARS.--There has been rather more
business done this week, chiefly by the refiners, who were
generally out of stock, having lately purchased very
sparingly, and sufficient only for each refine, although the
qualities suitable for the pans have been less plentiful for
a long time past tha❑ other sorts ; prices, however, al-
though fully sustained, are without alteration ; the grocers
continue to be only limited buyers, and pick up the low
and middling descriptions upon very advantageous terms,
but the finer qualities suitable to their trade being rather
scarce, are held more firmly for the quotations, and conse-
quently are taken off only as they are wanted ; a public
sale of 129 Mids. 13arbadoes was brought forward on
Tuesday, at which very full prices were realised, the whole
being taken off with considerable spirit.
FOREIGN SUGARS.-There is very little doing at pre-
sent ; the Manilla Sugars bought i❑ by public sale last
week, continue to be taken off slowly, a trifle above the
buying-in prices.
REFINED Suanas. —Large lumps continue to be taken
off for packing, but are very scarce, notwithstanding which
barely last week's prices can be realised, the sales generally
being at 71s. to 725. for low to good descriptions; in small
and Prussian lumps, and low single loaves also, although
there is still business doing for crashing, there is a heavi-
ness, and last week's quotations are with difficulty ob-
tained ; sales of crashed continue to be made for the Me-
diterranean ; but the inquiries this week have not been so
numerous, and although no material alteration can be made
in the quotations, purchases could bb made on a shade
easier terms than last week.
CorTEE.—Three hundred and fifty-seven casks, and 201
bags Plantation have been offered this week, consisting of
Jamaica, Demerara, and llerhice, nearly the whole of which
has been taken off, and at an advance of Is. to 2s. on
good qualities for the home trade, of which descriptions a
great part of the quantity offered consisted ; for Foreign
Coffee there continues to be enquiries, but ♦ery little real
business has been done.

FRUIT.-New Currants were taken off steadily in the
beginning of the week at 735. ; but some of the importers
seemed anxious to effect immediate and more extensive
sales, and to do which they yesterday lowered the price
to 705. at which about 200 butts were sold. New red
Smyrna Raisins, since last Friday, have advanced 2s.
the price being now 435. ; only a small quantity has, how-
ever as yet been taken off ; there have been two or three
arrivals this week. New Valenti& Raisins have been held
firmly for 4.75. ; but the grocers do not appear disposed to
purchase at that price, until they have cleared off their
old stocks ; the merchants, nevertheless, have signified their
intention of putting them up to-morrow at 48s. New
pulled Turkey Figs continue to go off rather freely; but
one or two parcels have been sold at lower prices. A large
public sale of new French Fruit was brought forward to-
day, consisting of various qualities, at which there were
very little sold ; a parcel of fine old Red Smyrna Raisins
has this afternoon been sold at 355. ; Jordan Almonds are
inquired after, but being in few hands, arc held for the
quoted prices, at which only very small quantities are
taken off.

TEA SALE.—Up to this morning 3,400 chests have
passed the sale, which is going on briskly. The Boheas
are gone throng's at id. per lb. cheaper, and the Congou
packages of Bohea sold 2(1. to 3d. per lb. cheaper. The
Congous are now on sale; low quality sells the same as at
the last declaration, but the better sorts are from 2d. to
3d. per lb. dearer.
RUM.—There is scarcely any demand either for Jamaica
or Leewards for home use or export, the buyers holding
back, in expectation of a still declining market ; Leewards
5 to 12 per cent. over-proof are still Id. cheaper than a
short time since.
SPICES.—The declaration of Spices for the Ceylon
Government has been issued for January, when 90,0001b5.
of Cinnamon are to be offered, as well as about 100 bales
of the first, second, and third sorts, saved from the wreck
of the Alexander, stranded near Gravesend. The Spice
market is (lull.

INDIGO.—There is little doing in Indigo. The East
India Company have issued their :declaration for the Ja-
nuary sale of Indigo, and about 1,100 chests have been
announced. The 'ale is fixed for the 19th of January. It
is expected that from 7,000 to 8,000 chests will be de-
clared previously to the commencement of the sale,
llors.—Choice bags continue in good demand from
7to 8 guineas. In inferior sorts thete is little or nothing

doing.
SALTrETRE is pretty firm at from 255. 64. to 265.
per cwt.
BALTIC PRODUCE.—TaIIow is 353.3 d. per cwt. Should
the ships which were detained by the frost at St. Peters-
burgh not get away this season, the market may be fa-
vourably affected, as they have on board a considerable
quantity of Tallow. Hemp is 455., and Flax 365. per
cwt. ; first St. Petersburgh Bristles are about 121.. and
the best from 121. to 12/. 10s. ; Okatka are from 201. to
30/. per cwt. The stock of Bristles is less by 400 casks
than last year.

menced the process of running his letters. The writ, of

ADVOCATE on Friday last,-...Edinburgh Observer.
