There having been no arrivals in Sugar, the market is still very
barely supplied, and the sales of B.P. only reach 200 hhds., chiefly
good and fine Autiguas, at very stiff prices. In Mauritius or Ben-
gal there arc not any transactions to report. 70 cases anti 130 brls
Brazil Sugar have been taken by the Refiners, at from 20s 6d to
21s 3d for fair brown, and 22s 6d for very low white. Small sales
continue to be made in bonded Refined, at the quotations.—Molasses
continue scarce, and the transactions are limited to 20 puns of De-
merara, at 35s per cwt.—Coffee. The demand for Plantation is at
present very trivial, only 20 casks of Jamaica are reported; no
alteration in prices. Of Foreign, 200 bags St. Domingo were sold
at 48s, and 150 bags very coloury Lima, the price of which has not
transpired.—No sales in Cocoa, Ginger or Pimento; but 250 bags
black Pepper have been taken at 4d per lb.—Rice continues scarce,
and 1500 bags middling white Bengal have been sold at 14s 6d per
cwt.—There has been a good inquiry for Ruin, and 240 casks have
been sold, chiefly good and fine Demerara, at is 6d to Os 2d, with a
few puns. IS per cent O.P. at 45 6d per gallon.
The transactions which have taken place in Tea during the week
are principally on speculation, and a fair business has been done in
good and fine Congous at 2s 4d, cash, and 2s 6d with a three months'
prompt.
On Wednesday last, some extensive sales of East India Produce
were brought forward, of which the following goods found pur-
chasers, viz. 700 chests of Shell Lac, at an advance of 4s to 5s per
cwt. ; 40 chests Lac Dye at gd to gid; !1 serons of Honduras Co •
chineal sold at 4s 9d toss Id per lb; 25 bales of Bengal Safflower at
.4'5 5s to .W 6 lOs per cwt ; 270 bags of Bombay Cutch at 13s ; 60
robins of Galangal Root at 21s; 260 bags of Myrabolams at 14s 6d
per cwt.—Of Saltpetre, 700 bags sold, and some Nitrate of Soda, at
steady prices.

.There is so little demand for Campeachy Logwood, that the price
is quite nominal, at 411 for indirect, and -t'l2 for direct importa-
tions; the sales of Jamaica and Honduras are about 450 tons, at
lOs to se7 17s 6d per ton. There is but little demand for Fustic,
30 tons Savanilla at £5 15s 6d to £6. and a few tons Tampico at
.t 7 per ton, are all the sales to notice.—The sales of Turpentine are
confined to 700 or 800 brls, at 12s 3d per cwt. for fair quailities no
alteration in Tat, nor any sales reported.—The business in Pot
Ashes has been inconsiderable, but the few sales which have been
made have been principally at 245. Some few small parcels of Pearl
Ashes have been sold at 29s 3d to 2gs fid per cwt.—A few hhds of
new American Flaxseed, for sowing, brought 70s per hhd. but 200
hhds, in a lot, only obtained 67s 6d.—A small parcel of East India
Linseed sold at 42s 6d per quarter.—Nothing done in Cloverseed.—
Hides. A decline of fully id per lb has taken place on salted Monte
Video Ox, 4500 having been sold at sid, and about 2000 dry salted
East India Kips, are reported at 12-id to 120 for sound, and gld per
lb for Ist rubbed.—Tobacco. The sales of the week have been 120
hhds, 40 to 50 of which were for Ireland, and the remainder to the
trade.

There has again been a dull week in most descriptions of Medi-
terranean Produce. Brimstone sells slowly in small parcels, the
total sales being only about 100 tons, without change in prices.—
Sumac has been in limited request.—Of Argols only small sales
have been made; but Cream of Tartar being scarce. has found more
ready vent, from 72s to 75s per cwt. according to quality.—No sales
reported in' Annatto, Berries, or Galls.—Madders and Roots con-
tinue dull, and the only sales reported in the former are 30 casks
Dutch, at the quotations.—For Olive Oil there continues to be a
moderate demand, and prices of the best descriptions (which are
very scarce) have been fully sustained. The sales of the week have
been about 50 tons.—ln Fish Oils the business continues unimport-
ant; about 50 tuns Newfoundland Cod have been sold at £2O 10s,
and some trifling sales of Seal have been effected at rather lower
prices.—There appears more inquiry for Seed Oils, but no improve-
ment in prices can be reported.—Palm Oil is rather lower, 150 tons
having been sold at .436, but this price has since been refused, and
there arefew sellers under t3d lOs ; about 300 tons on the spot have
been sold during the week, and 100 tons for distant arrival, the price
not reported.—Oil of Turpentine is in better request, at the prices
quoted.—Hemp and Flax have been more inquired for; of the
former about 50 tons different qualities have been sold at about our
quotations- also a parcel of Sunn Hemp at 5 10s, and sonic Jute,
of only fair quality, at ..tll lOs per ton.—For Tallow there has been
only a limited demand, but prices are fully supported, the stock
being so much reduced as not to press on the market; Petersburg
yellow candle brings 51s, Odessa yellow candle and white 505 to
50s 6d; South American Tallow meets a more ready sale at full rates.
