COMMERCIAL INTELLIOENCE—qms DAT).

The Market fur Plantation Sugars continues in a bunyam state;
but business has not been quite so active since Friday as it was in
the early pan of last week. The refiners and grocers are, how-
ever, still in the market, particularly the latter, who are well known
th be short of stock, and have for some months past only purchased
to meet their immediate wants. Since the commencement of
business subsequent to the Holidays, the sate may he stated at
shoot 5,000 bh.ls. but the advance in the prices has not exceeded
Is. per cwt. Tile deliveries since Friday have been much larger
that, for weeks past, within the same space of time. Business this
morning is slack, but much is expected to be done in the afternoon.
As Mauritius Sugars obtain advanced quotations, it is expected
that the public sale of 5,600 hags, advertised for to-morrow, will
go off freely at as improvement. East India Sugar is in demand
for exportation, and the deliveries since Friday have b:en large.
Refused Sugars were heavy.
In Owes* the business is not extensive. The accounts from
Holland and liamburgb represent a slight demand there: the
holders here are therefore anticipating higher prices for this article,
which has so long remained in an inactive state.
In Rum no business of Importance has been entered into lately.
SALTPZIIII may be quoted a shade b. tter, but there is uo disposi-
tion manifested by capitalists to speculate in this article at present.
The Sue i►laselT continues to display much activity, at the ad-
vance noticed in the last report.

Omits Wong It is expected that the sale at the India House in
the latter end of the present month, will be increased by further
declaration► to about 7,000 bags. •The demami for most descriptions
of Cotten is steady, but nut tetive, sad the prices to-day are about
the same as at the end of last week.
Mama Pawnees remains without animation. The latest ae•
corms front Si. Petersburgh state that the supply of Tallow this
year will exceed that of lust season, and will amount to abort
200.000 casks. The price continues at front 375. 9d. to 38s. per
cwt.—Hasse and FEAR are pretty firm.
In brown very little is expected to be done until after the sale.
Shipments to some extent are still made totbe Continental Markets,
where better prices can be obtained. •
Hoes—The payment and receipt of differences, arising out of the
betting. on the amount of duty, have, since the Ist inst. occupied
the attention of the• speculators. Some very considerable same have
changed hands. In Hops business is steady, at prices abOut the
"me as last week.
The Icon TRAPS gol•e as-brisk as at any period in the last
threelnonths, and the advance is maintained with firmness. Toe
Continental orders for Machinery have not been numerous of late,
Mot fall employment is afforded in the completion of former orders.
u.:-The demand for Oils i• brisk Sperm may be quoted ss
high as to 1111. per tun. Rape Oil is firm, and for other descrip-
tions she holders ask an advinace is rim
