COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

LIVERPOOL, JULY 14.—There continues a good demand
for British Plantation Sugar; the market being barely
supplied, the sales amount to only 800 hhds. at a further
advance in price of fully Is. per cwt. Nothing done in
East India Sugar, and of Foreign our stock is exhausted.

made consist of Trinidad at 265. 6d. to 275. per cwt.

remains without alteration, although there appears a little
feeling towards an improvement. About 100 tees. Ja-
maica sold by auction were taken readily by the grocers at
full prices. Cocoa and Ginger dull. Pimento in request;

Our Cotton market was steady in the early part of the
week, but since Wednesday it has become very animated,
in consequence of a brisk demand from the dealers and
spinners, who purchased largely at the previous rates, and
have also paid about id. per lb. advance on most descrip-
tions of Cotton, but at this advance there is a sufficient
quantity offering to meet the demand. The sales (of
which about 3,000 bags American have been taken on
speculation, and 1,000 American and Brazil for export)
amount to 27,850 bags, consisting of 7,660 Bowed, 5i-d.
a 74d., chiefly at bid. to 6id. for middling to good fair ;

An import of 1,600 barrels rough Turpentine was offered
by auction on Wednesday, of which 650 brls. were sold at
12s. 6d., the quality about two-thirds soft; the principal
part of the stock is in the hands of the trade. A cargo
of 750 brls. Stockholm Tar has brought 15s. 3d. per
brl. : American is much wanted, and very little in the
market. Rosin is steady. There Las been a very con-
siderable demand for Ashes, principally on speculation, and
upwards of 3,000 brls. have changed hands, at a further
advance of 6d. to Is. per cwt. ; the sales consist of 1,150
brls. Montreal Pot at 235. 9d. to 255. 6d. for brand 1825,

100 Mids. very ordinary Philadelphia have been sold at
121. The demand for Dyewoods is decidedly better, al-
though, at present, prices do not improve ; the sales of
Logwood are about 400 tons Ctmpeachy at 71. ss. to 71.
10g., and a small parcel at 71. 1,55., with 55 tons Jamaica
at 6/. 2s. 6d. to 61. 10s. per ton. Cuba Fustic being
scarce, 10 tons have been sold at 131., and 20 tons Spanish
at 71. 10s. to 91. Some inquiry has appeared for good
small Nicaragum Wood, but holders are unwilling to sell at
the prices offered ; of large solid 25 tons have been sold at
161. per ton. Camwood is lower ; 12 tons are reported
sold at 12/. 10s., but the principal holders will not sell
