neat. The arrivals have been 7845 kegs, including
one vessel from Calcutta with 2003 bales, but the

SUOAR.—The Sugar market has been so heavy for
sometime past, that the holders toward.; the cl.,se of
last week were induced to effect sales by submit7inA
to a small decline. The Sugar market i ag.t;.

this morning, msd the liolde-rs evince some
to accept prices even a shade lower than last ‘•
the decline in Muscovades may he state.l 1:. to •.!:. tor
'parcels in importers' hands ; those held on specula-
tion at the reduction of 2s. tr, 3s. Ily the in:w rates
of duty the present import rates of StN. on Masco-
wades, ?.ss. on Clayeds, and 40s. per cwt. on last
India Sugars,' are proposed to be made permanent.—
In the refined market there was much inquiry, and R
consideilible disposition evinced
.to do business, bnt
the shippers still state that their orders are liir.ited to
prices 3s. to lis. per cwt. under the present prices.—
Several sales were however reported generally at a
decline in the prices of about I s. crushed Sugars were
in considerable request. Molasses were in demand
at 3,55. There was no
,alteration in Foreign Sugars.
Correa.—Yesterday and -this forenoon there was
much briskness in the demand by private contract ;
the request was particularly for good and fine mid-
dling Dutch and Jamaica, but the quantity of Coffee
at market is so reduced, particularly the finer de-
scriptions, that • the shippers could not execute their
orders St. Domingo and-other foreign descriptions
were also in great demand. A cargo of St. Donliago,
Ito arrive at Glasgow, which had been sold at 10`_'s
few days ago, was re-sold at 10Ss. pat cell of St. Dc-
mingo in Loudon, however ordinary. ceuld not be
purchased under 109 s. and for good quality 1 1 ls.

The accounts from the Continent respecting Ceac
continua exceedingly favourable ; the prices are ad-
vancing, and very small stocks arc riposted in the
Hanle Towns anti in Holland.
Tonacco.--There is little doing in Tobacco ; the
holders continue sanguine of obtaining much higher
prices. •
Rtes.—The proposed reduction in the duty on
American, and new duty on East India will occasion
much fluctuation. A cargo of Carolina Rice is re-
ported to be sold at 465.
lint, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—.-The prices of
Rum arc Y.-idiom variation; the market rather heavy.

;

The deliveries from the warehouse last week are

nearly 1200 puncheons, the greater proportion for
export ;* the purchases were made, we believe, some
weeks ago. The inferior descriptions of Brandy con-
tinue to decline. In Geneva no alteration.
