LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, FEB. 15.

Sugar. The market remains in a very dull state, and the sales
are only 600 hhds. 8.P., for which, in some instances, rather lower
prices have been accepted. Nothing done in EaSt India ; and of
Mauritius only 600 bags sold, at former rates. 30 cases and 147
brls Bahia Sugar, offered by auction, sold with spirit ; for the brls.
there was great competition, and an advance upon previous prices
was realized ; the cases sold at current rates, 24s to 25s for mid-
dling white up to 27s for good white.—Molasses. The market con-
tinues quiet ; but as holders are firm, there is not any alteration to
notice in price, 100 puns of Demerara having been taken from the
quay at 295, and a small parcel of Trinidad at 28s 6d ap• cwt.—Coffee.
The demand for British Plantation continues steady ; at a public
sale of Jamaica this day, the clean ordinary descriptions went off
freely at full prices, whilst some lots of the middling and better
qualities were bought in ; the quantity sold amounts to 80 tcs. and
60 brls. No sales to notice in Foreign.—Nothing done in Cocoa,
Pimento, or Pepper ; but 250 bags Malabar Ginger sold at 18s 9d,
and 100 bags Barbadoes at the quotations.—Rice. In East India not
any business has been done. 100 tcs. dressed Carolina have,been
taken for home-use at 40s la cwt. duty paid.—Rum. For the -fine
and low qualities there is a fair demand ; the sales arc 100 puns
of Demerara, at 5s id to 5s 6d to the trade, and 30 pipes of Havana,
of low proofs, for export, at 2s 2d to 2s 3d la, gallon.
The transactions in Indigo are suspended, owing to the forth-
coming public sales.—The following East India Produce has found
buyers, viz. 60 chests East India Gum Arabic, at 49s to 515 for good,
and 30s for ordinary quality; 58 chests fine garnet Shell Lac, at 80s
to 855; 400 bags blue Galls, at 70s to 71s 6d; 5 chests Gum Myrrh,
at £7 105 cwt. ;11 chests Lad Dye, at is p lb.-30s has been
realized for about 200 bags of Saltpetre.
Dyewoods. The arrival of Logwood this week has been consi-
derable, and is likely to increase, and our prices are uncertain ;
about 100 tons of Campeachy sold at £l4 lOs to .£lB 19, ton, and a
cargo to arrive at £l5 2s 6(1; 30 tons of Jamaica sold at £l3 7s 6d
per ton ; in Fustic the sales are 40 tons of Savanilla, at £l2 2s 6d
to £l2 ss, and 65 of Macaraibo at £ll 2s 6d to £ll 12s 6d afi ton;
nothing reported in other kinds.—Turpentine is rather lower; 400
barrels of fair quality were sold to-day at Ils 3d, and 100 brls. of
good quality at 12s 4d.—Nothing new in American, Stockholm, or
Archangel Tar.—Montreal Pot Ashes, which have been gradually
declining for some time past, and which were sold in the beginning
of the week at 25s have at length rallied a little, and at a public
sale to-day of 120 brls., the advanced prices of 25s 6d to 26s 3d were
given, and the sale went off with some spirit; Pearl Ashes are
steady at previous prices.—Quercitron Bark continues in the most
limited demand, and quotations are almost nominal.--In Flaxseed
or Cloverseed no sales have transpired.—No. alteration in Bees'
Wax.—Hides. Most descriptions are dull of sale, and the transac-
tions are chiefly confined to dry salted Brazil, at a slight decline ;
1600 inferior Bahia brought 4id to 41d, 460 Pernambuco 5,1 d, 220
Ceara s,id, 800 dry Lima 6id for sound, and 100 dry Bahia sija p lb.
--A,parcel of Dividivi has been sold at £2O Ins to £22 la torte—The
salen of Tobacco are about 100 hhds. ; of which 35 hhds were for
re-dale, 10 for exportation, and the remainder to the home-trade,
at steady prices.
For Brimstone there has been a fair,demand from the consumers,
who continue to buy with more confidence than for some past, at
the present rates.—Nothing worthy of notice is reported in Sumac,
Argols, Cream of Tartar, Madders or Madder Roots.—A few casks
of Naples brown Tartar, by auction, brought 50s 6d per cwt.—Up-
wards of 300 tons of Valonia have been offered at public sale, of
which one cargo, about 180 tons good Smyrna, sold readily ex ship.
at £l9 to £l9 as 6d, and some small lots of fine Camalina at £2O
17s 6d per ton ; a cargo of common Smyrna was withdrawn, £l4 105
being the highest bid.—Olive Oil has been in fair request, and up-
wards of 80 tuns sold to dealers, at about previous prices.—ln Fish
Oils we have no transactions to notice this week, and prices remain
without alteration.—Linseed Oil has been in better request, and
some sales in quantity have been effected at our quotations ; pale
Rape is less inquired fcr, but the price is fully supported.—Three
vessels have this week arrived from Africa, bringing about 800 tons
Palm Oil ; the whole sold before arrival ; we reduce our quotations
to the prices now demanded, but at which there has been very little
business done.—Oil of Turpentine continues in great request.—
Hemp remains very dull, but the Ropers being very busy, and their
stocks fast reducing, they will be compelled for the spring demand
to come again into tile market ; our quotations dre quite nominal.
—The Tallow market, which up to yesterday was in a declining
state, when Petersburg yellow candle sold at 49s 6d to 50s, has to-
day experienced an advance, in consequence of an improvement in
the London market, and some business has been done at Ms.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEB. 15.
In consequence of a continued limited inquiry from the trade, the
market during the week has presented rather a dull appearance, and
although there is no material change to notice in the prices, (ex-
cepting those of Brazil, which rate *d 70, lb. lower,) yet the quota-
tions of last week are with difficulty obtained. Speculators have
taken 8000 American.
