LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, NON. 28.

The demand for Sugar this week has been limited, but as holders
do not press sales, there is little change in price ; the business con-
sists of 500 hhds. 8.P., together with 600 bags fine white Bengal, at
70s to 71s per cwt. Some public sales of damaged Mauritius and
Bengal went at high prices. There are.no transactions to report
in Foreign Sugar this week; several parcels of Brazil are offering
without meeting with purchasers at present rates.—The sales in
Molasses consist of 150 puns Trinidad and Demerara, at 31s for very
ordinary, to 32s 9d per cwt. for fine quality.—The sales of Planta
tion Coffee comprise 170 casks of Jamaica, chiefly ordinary and mid-
dling qualities, whieh brought steady prices. Nothing done in Fo-
reign.-350 pockets East India Ginger sold at 14s per mt. and 100
bags Pimento at 31d to Sad.—No sales in East India Rice; 25 tees.
dressed Carolina have been sold at 40s per cwt.—Rather lower prices
have been accepted for Rum, and the sales are limited to small par-
cels of fine Demerara and Jamaica, at Is led to 6s 2d per gallon.
The Indigo brought to public sale on Wednesday was principally
of the Onde and Fig descriptions, low in quality, which sold from
2s ld to 4s ; a few of a better class (Bengal) went at Is Gd to 6s 4d ;
not more than 50 chests:were sold, including what was subsequently
taken.-10 casks Tincal are reported at 60s, and a few chests or-
dinary Lac Dye at filth—ln Saltpetre the business is cocfined to 300
bags, at 23s to is, and a similar quantity of Nitrate of Soda at
17s 9d to 18s 6d p r cwt.

The small sto k of Logwood on the market enabled holders to
realize extreme rates for some time past, but having some arrivals,
both direct and indirect, about 140 tons of Campeachy have been
sold, at £lO for the former and £9 for indirect. The sales in other
descriptions of Woods have been trilling, and without change.—
There have been no sales in Turpentine, except 200 to 300 brls in
store; at 12s per cwt.—No transactions in Tar have occurred.—For
new Pot Ashes there has been a good demand, partly on speculation,
and the sales amount to 500 brls, at 24s 6d to 24s 9d, principally from
the ship, with a few in store at 255. Some trifling parcels of Pearl
Ashes have brought 29s Gd per cwt.—The transactions in Bark have
been very trifling, at rather lower prices.—Nothing done in Clover-
seed or Flaxseed.—A few bales of bleached Cuba Bees' Wax sold at
£9 per cwt. duty paid.—Hides. The only sales of the month reach
718 hints ; of which the Trade have taken 413, Irish Dealers and
Manufacturers 190, Exporters 95, and Scotch Mannufacturers 20
hhds. Prices have ruled somewhat irregular throughout the month,
, but several large importers having refused to accept lower prices,
we make but little alteration in our quotations ; and as the imports
have all come forward, and the surplus in the comparative stocks is
rapidly diminishing, present prices will probably be maintained for
some time to come.

The demand for Brimstone has continued steady during the
week, and, including some parcels sold to arrive, the total sales
amount to upwards of 500 tons, in most instances at a further ad-
vance of 5s to 105 per ton ; the stock at this port (exclusive of AN hat
is held by the Company) is only about 2300 tons. The recent im-
torts of Sicily Shumac continue to find buyers on arrival, at full
prices.
