MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)

SUGAR.—There was a general and rather extensive de-
mand for Sugar last week ; the purchases of Muscovades
were estimated at 3,000 hhds., and they would have been
more extensive, but the strong and good qualities were
scarce. The Market was very firm, but we cannot state
any alteration in the currency. The stock report, and the
deliveries of Sugar last week are rather unfavourable for
the Market ; the stock is now 2,829 hhds. and tres. more
than last year ; the deliveries from the warehouses 2,731
hhds. and tres. last week, being 416 less than the corre-
sponding week of 1828. The scarcity of good Sugars
continues so great that the buyers have for several Market
days been waiting fur hours previously to the opening of
the Market, to get the preference of new good Sugars at
the Market prices. This day several new cargoes were
brought on show, and immediately attracted all the
buyers ; at the close of the day the es►imated purchases,
including 152 hhds. and tres. Barbadoes at public sale,
were 1,100 hhds. and tres. The Market is Is. higher ;
Antigua and Jamaica sold so high as 695. a 71s. 6d. In
the Refined Market the purchases last week were so con-
siderable that the stocks were greatly reduced, and prices
a shade higher were obtained; the request was general, the
low and middling qualities taken for export, and the fine
inr the home consumption. Crushed in more demand.—
Molasses steady in price, but more in request. Goods
under 82s. are very scarce this afternoon. Bastards 2s.
higher. Molasses Sd. higher.

Foitaia ri Su naa.—ln addition to the fine white Ha-
vannah we not:ced sold on Tuesday last, we had about 700
chests fine brown and yellow Havannab, sold at an average
of 30s. ; two parcels of fine white Pernambuco sold 38s.
and 38s. 6d. mid. at 365.

EAST INDIA Stroaa.-The advance on Mauritius,
which we stated on Tuesday, was fully maintained, and
about 5,000 bags were afterwards sold. By public sale
this day 2,055 bags Mauritius, and 517 begs Bengal, the
latter sold, mid. white at 328.6 d., good mid. at Sys. ;
the Mauritius was nearly all one quality, good strong
brown, and sold 50s. a 525. 6d. ; prices are Is. higher.
WEZT INDIA MoLasszs.—The prices of West India
Molasses were 6d. to ls. higher last week ; some Antigua
sold at 235. ; Demerara at 225.

COFFEE.—The public sales of Coffee last week were ex-
tensive; they consisted of 12,130 bags Java, 2,360 bags
La Guayra, 240 bags Sumatra, 150 bags Brazil, 152 bags
Manilla, 600 casks Jamaica, 637 packs Demerara and
B rbice, and about 70 casks Dominica. The two latter
were nearly all taken in, and there were few offers; all the
other qualities sold with briskness, and at very full market
prices; good ord. Batavia Sls. 6d. a 355. 6d. ; fair Su-
matra 3 Is. ; good ord. pale Manilla 335. 6d. and 345. ;
good ord. La Guayra 348. a 345. 6d., fine ord. 365. a 395. ;
good ord. Brazil 345. 6d. This day at public sle 143
casks 183 bags British Plantation Coffee, the great pro-
portion Dente' are and Berbice ; a few mid. Jamaica sold
at 60s. 6d. good ord. coloury 40s. 6d., good mid. Berbice
87s. 6d. Coffee market steady.
Rum, BRANDY, •ND HOLL•NDS.—_The Rum Market
continues very heavy, and the sales effected are at rather
lower prices. About 400 puncheons Leewards have been
sold, of which 300 were proofs, two over at 2s. Id., and
a few stronger in the saute proportion. Jamaica Rums are
offered on rather lower terms without facilitating sales;
the only purchase we are aware of is a parcel SI over good
Rum, but old landed at 3s. 9d. Brandy is held with
firmness, but there are few sales—Geneva continues
neglected.

HEMP, FLAX, AND Tar.Lew.—Tallow has been heavy
and declining, the reduction appears to be occasioned by
the continued money sales.—ln Hemp or Flax there is little
alteration.

LAC DlM.—Several sales are reported ; the prices are
unvaried.

SALTPETRE.-The demand has been limited ; some pur-
chases, however, are reported. By public sale this fore-
noon 1,003 bags Saltpetre; a few lots taken in 245. 6d.
and 259. 6d. ; the whole then withdrawn ; 255. offered for
the fine.

Cocoa.—By public sale last week, a parcel of very
superior Brt.zil Cocoa, 1,131 bags, sold with briskness
225. 6d. a 231. This day 103 brls. Trinidad Cocoa sold,
fine 61s. 6d.

Hoes.—There was some speculation as to the duty on
/lops for this year. It commenced at 125,0001. to
130,0001. There have been a few purchases of Hops, but
at former prices. The accounts from the Hop Plantations
continue favourable ; the growth of the bines is very rapid,
and the plant has a healthy appearance ; but in several
places the fly is reported.

PINIENTO.-This itiy 124 bags Pimento, chiefly 7id.
a V.

Iwnico.—There were renewed inquiries after Indigo
last week, but few sales took place. It was reported the
Liverpool speculators were prepared to go on further in
their purchases of Indigo, hut there was no movement in
the Market to confirm the runioqr. The public sale of
Indigo to-day consisted of 43 serons Guatemala, the lowest
description yet arrived, and affords no guide to the Market
prices.
FRUIT.—The holders of Raisins did not press sales last
week on account of the proposed alteration in duty;
the demand for Valentia has been checked by the late ad-
vance. Two cargoes of Currants were divided last week
among the trade, 7Ss. and 795.
COTTON.-The holders of Cotton have become more
firm since the favourable report of the Liverpool Market
transpired ; the purchases for the week ending last night
inclusive consist of 1,200 Surats. Bd. a 5(1. ; 500 Bengal,
sp. a 4id. ; 100 Bowed, Sid. a 6d. ; 120 Peruvian, 611
TgA.—The Prompt for last sale is on Friday; in the
Market the operations this week are limited, and the
opportunities of effecting sales not frequent. •
latsu PaovtstoNs.—There is little alteration in Irish
Provisions this week. Arrivals, 1,443 bales Bacon, 4,614
casks Foreign Butter.

COCHINEAL.-There were more inquiries after Cochi-
neal last week ; about 100 serons sold at an advance of 3d.
a 6d. per lb. on the late public sale prices. This day, at
public sale, 24, bags Cochineal, mid. silver, taken in 9s.
2d. a 90. 6d., except two lots.

SILY.—The late reduction in the prices does not facili-
tate sales; the trade remains in the most depres•ted state.
Woot.—By public sale on Wednesday 36 bales New
South Wales Wool, 9d. a Is. ; 131 bales Van Die-
men's Land Wool, aid. a 9d. ; 200 bales Spanish Wool,
Ord. a Is. IFd. ; 11 bales German Wool, Is. 4d. a
1,7. sd. ; 10 hales Cape Wool, 9d. a Is. Id. The Wools
were an of low to middling quality, and obtained their full
value. On Friday 435 bags Spanish Wool sold 41. a
ls. 7d., which was rather higher than last sale. The
stock of Wool is limited, and of Spani,l there is not a
week's consumption, yet still the prices decline.
Ton.acco.—The time for warehousing Tobacco has been
extended to fire in place of three years, after that period
444. per week, per hltd. The transactions in Tobacco
have been confined to small parcels to the trade.
MINING INTILLIGENcIi. —Sales at lledruth last week.

The demand for Raw SUGARS has been very steady all
the week; the sales amount to 1,190 hhds. and tres. ;

About sixty puncheons of Jamaica RUM have been sold

The supplies of all descriptions of GRAIN still continue

partial speculative demand for Wheat, and several lots
changed hands at former rates ; but the trade have been

For Oats there has been a fair demand, and full prices
obtained ; latterly there have been few sellers, in con-
sequence of higher prices being anticipated. Fine Malting
Barley, which is rather scarce, has sold at a trifling advance,
while Grinding qualities are without alteration. For
Beans there has been a fair demand, and fine Peas are in
good reptest.

At five o'clock on Monday afternoon an 14141.

went towards' the place, and found the deces‘d,
lying on his back ; he raised the deceased
.up, :i
his head fell back upon his shoulders ; the

thief attempting to rob me." The witness dealt d
him to keep his spirits up, and having heard be
it

ther lam standing upon.my head or heels. 1114
I shall cut my throat some day or other with ,r,
razor you gave." The deCeased was very'ooo
