MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

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

SUGARS.-The Sugar Market became very languid to-
wards the close of last week, though no general reduction
in the prices could be stated, yet ord. parcels appeared
rather lower, and, generally, the trade had a very unfavour-
able appearance. At the close of the market the esti-
mated sales of Muscovades this day (including 122 hhds.
Barbadoes) were 700 hhds. and trcs. The scarcity of low
and mid. goads for export prevented any decline last week,
but the market became very dull, and the purchases that
were reported were on a very confined scale—goods fur
home consumption continue neglected. Molasses very
heavy. There was little alteration in the Refined Market
this afternoon, the prices may be stated a shade lower.
'fetal delivery of Sugar last week from the three dock
warehouses-3,333 Mids. and trcs., 3,938 bags, 959
boxes and chests. The latter were all for export except
12 chests.

EAST INDIA SUGAR.-In East India Sugars there were
few purchases, and no alteration in the prices. This day
4,452 bags Mauritius Sugar by public sale, chiefly of the
middling and lower qualities, the best was good yellow;
of which about 3,500 bags sold, the inferior brown is
lower, the middling and good yellow at former prices,
but there was a great heaviness about the sale.
FOREIGN.-There were no purchases of Foreign Sugar
by private contract last week. By public sale 321 chests
114vannah, of which 120 chests were very fine strong yel-
low, sold 30s. 6d. a 3I s. ; middling 28s. 6d. a 305.; 246
chests 28 packs Brazil, chiefly Pernams damaged and of
low quality, sold at very reduced prices, but form no cri-
terion as to market prices. This day 450 chests Ha-
vanna!' Sugar; the white, about 160 chests, all taken in
48s. a 4Ss. 6d. ; the remainder, all yellow, withdrawn.
CoreEa.—The public sales this week have gone off
heavily, and the inferior descriptions of Jamaica have sold
rather lower ; the finer qualities support prices, but there
has been a very languid market. A great proportion of
the Demerara Berbice Coffee brought forward has been
taken in ; other British Plantation•descriptions are equally
languid. In Foreign Coffee there is no variation, there
have been partial inquiries, but they have not been fol-
lowed by any contracts; 335. has been offered and tefused
for good St. Domingo. This day by public sale 259 casks
30 brls., 246 bags British Plantation, a few bales Mocha
—3OO bags old good ordinary Brazil--535 bags chiefly
fine ordinary La Guayra-128 bags Havannah. The La
Guayra sold 355. a 355. 6d., being very full prices ; the
Brazil was taken in at 335. ; the Jamaica, Demerara, Ber-
bice, and Dominica, all went off very heavily at rather
low prices. The Market is very heavy.
_ _ _

Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The Rum Market
has become very heavy, the purchases for the wcek are
quite inconsiderable, yet the holders continue firm, and no
parcels are forced on the Market for sale. Brandy is
little varied, but the purchases are few. Geneva is still
neglected.
lam., FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The Tallow Market has
become dull, and the prices are again giving way. In
Hemp and Flax there is no alteration.
Rice.—There was little alteration in Rice; some small
sales of Carolinas are reported at 345. and 35s.—In East
India there are few sales.

ToaAcco.—The demand for Tobacco for the home trade
has, in a great measure, sulisided. A cargo of Kentucky
has been taken for Flanders at 20s. 6d. a 215., and about
100 lihds. very low Kentucky and Virginia sold at 2d.
and 2iil.
SPICES. —There is no alteration in Spices. Pimento of
good quality sold at 7FI. last week.
INDIGO.—There is little variation in Indigo, one or two
parcels of fine have been forced off at low priers.
COCOA.—The holders of Cocoa, suitable for the Govern-
ment contract, are asking higher prices, but there are few
bales of any extent.
OILS.—The Oil Market has become very dull, and pur-
chases might be made on rather lower terms ; there are no
further accounts from the fisheries.

Hors.—The picking is general, the Hops came down
very far below the general anticipation. The duty is stated
at 33,0001. The price of new Hops Si. Bs. a 101. 10s. ;
old 61. a 71.

FRUlT.—There are few transactions to report in Fruit;
a part of a cargo of very fine Patras Currants held lately at
86s. has been disposed of at 78s.—This day at public sale

735. a 794.

sid. a 41(1. ; 2,500 Surat, Sktl. a 43d. ;
pur-
chases for the week ending last night inclusive consist of
6id. a 6P. The purchases of Surat
Cotton have lately been so extensive, that the lower qualities
are held for higher prices ; the advance is fully id. per lb.
SALTPETRE.--Saltpetre is dull, but the prices not lower.
312100 Bengalpro

NORWICH. Sept. 26.
We had a large supply of Wheat and Barley to-day, and
a fair quantity of other Grain. At the commencement
of the market dry samples of Wheat, and also of Barley,
were taken off at last week's prices, and damp parcels
found buyers, but towards the close the overwhelming
quantity of inferior samples produced a general stagnatiOtt
in all, and many were taken back. Oats, Beans, and
Pease, went off heavily. Flour dull sale.
Wheat (per qr.) 44s. 60s. 695. I Beans (per qr.)......... 40s. 42a.
