CITY MARKETS-TWO O'CLOCK.

PLANTATION SuGaits.—Very little business has been
done this week, and prices remain the same as last ; the
good, fine, and strong qualities are still scarce, and when
any parcels are shown, are taken off at firm prices : the
public sale of Barbadoes on Tuesday, consisting of 143
'Aids. and 6 barrels, went off at rather higher prices for
the coloury lots, although very little briskness in the bid-
ding was displayed.
Delivered last week from West India Docks, 2,611
hhds., 244 trs.

Stock on hand in West India Doeks (on 9th inst.),

Foitztcx SUGARS.—TWO public sales of Brazil Sugar,
consisting of 797 chests and 69 barrels, have been brought
forward since Thursday last, but only part sold, and those
at a decline of full Ss. to 4s. per cwt. in the prices of the
yellow and brown and low to middling white soft qualities,
of which both sales chiefly consisted.

REFINED Sucarts.—The market to all appearance con-
tinues extremely languid, but a good many parcels of low
and middling lumps and loaves have been taken off fur ship-
ping, and although prices cannot be quoted higher, the re-
finers evidently show rather more firmness in their gle-
mantis ; a few parcels of the middling and good descrip-
fleas of Crashed have also been sold for the Mediterranean
at about the quotations, and offers are still making for
small parcels rather below them.
COFFEE.-The demand continues chiefly confined to
small parcels for the home trade, and for the good qualities
of this description offered full prices are paid : about 1,400
bags of Brazil have been brought forward by public sale,
and taken tiff at steady prices for the coloury lots, but the
ordinary qualities met with less demand.
Delivered last week front West India Docks, 229 casks,
1,813 bags, &c.
Stock on hand in West India Docks (o❑ 9th instant),
8,973 casks, 74,786 bags, &c.
Stock on hand in West India Docks (©n 11th March,
182 S), 10,801 casks, 92,367 bags, &e.
FILIIIT.-Yesterday was offered, by pulslic -sale, 23
butts Currants. part damaged, and sold from SOs. to 83s.
and 73 caroteels sound ditto 83s. to 845., quality only
middling ; 1200 baskets Denia Raisins of a very inferior
quality, being candied and much pressed, of which only
part was sold at 30s. to 345. ; a quantity of Imperial
French Plums was also offered, but all bought in with
the exception of one or two fine lots; a parcel of Cepha—
lonia Currants, of middling quality, is being divided at
82s. by private contract ; but generally there is very little
doing.

In SALTPETRIL there is a tendency to improve, with an
increase of business for the Continental markets.

BALTIC PRODUCR.-In consequence of a very large
transaction in Russia Tallow much attention has been di-
rected to the article within the last few days. A sale of
2000 casks has been made by a Russia merchant to a prin-
cipal speculator in the same trade, and the price declined to
595. A previous heavy sale had been made, to deliver in
the present month, and the delivery being pressed on the
market, found the minor speculators unprepared to take
the Tallow, and were compelled to pay the difference be-
tween the present low price and the high quotation at
which they entered on the transaction. Prices are ex-
pected to be lower, and the home produce is pressing on
the trade.
Lot Sul( TRADE continues in a most depressed state,
and scarcely a day passes without the announcement of
failures either in London or some of the districts, where
the manufacture is carried on. It is extremely difficult
to sell any quantity of Raw Silks, excepting the finer
sizes of Bengals, unless very reduced prices are submit-
ted to.

Rost.—The market for Rum is heavy, and 'hot much
expected to be done, until the result of the Government
contract is known to-day. The general stock of Rum
is about 17,600 pun. and 1,360 hiids.

BATII ELECTION.—In consequence of the
former election having been declared null and void by a
double return, the Earl of Brecknock and General Palmer
were again put in nomination on the 10th inst., when the
ormer was declared elected.

ANNIVERSARY DINNER OF THE LONDON
OmgrAN ASYLUM.—The above dinner was given yesterday
at the City of London Tavern, /3ishopsgate-street. his
Grace the Duke of Wellington was in the Chair, and after
the cloth was removed, handed over his cheque for fifty-two
guineas to the Secretary. The entire cqllection of the
evening amounted to upwards of 1,6001.
