There continues to be a moderate demand for Brimstone, the
sales of the present week having been chiefly in small parcels for
immediate consumption, and amounting to about 150 tons.—Only
small sales appear to have been made in Sumac.—Argols have been
but of limited sale ; but for Cream of Tartar there has been a good
inquiry, and the market has been cleared of nearly all that re-
mained in first hands, establishing an advance for recent sales of Is
Per cwt.—About 10 bales of Persian Berries sold from ,el 3 to
per cwt.—Madders and Roots are still quiet, and no transactions
reported this week in any description.—Quercitron Bark goes off
slowly at the quotations.—ln consequence of the reduced stocks of
Olive Oil, the article has attracted much attention during the week,
and about 150 tuns have been disposed of, chiefly to dealers • the
holders of the common descriptions now demand an advance of 4.2
per tun on last week's rates.—There are no sales to report in Fish
Oils, and prices are without alteration.—Sonic transactions have
taken place in Linseed Oil at 24s 6d, and pale Rape is in better re-
quest, at improving prices, 38s to 38s fid being now obtained.—There
has been an extensive business done in Palm Oil, and an advance
of 30s to 40,5 per ton has been realized, the sales of yesterday closing
at .t'36 lOs per ton, and the principal holders decline selling at this
price; the total sales may be estimated at about 900 tons, all on the
spot.—Oil of Turpentine is in limited request.—Hemp remains very
dull of sale, and our quotations almost nominal ; 100 bales of Jute
have brought per ton, and 60 bales Sunn £l5 lOs per ton —ln
Flax little doing.—There continues a steady demand for Tallow,
and the quantity of the better descriptions is getting into a very
small compass here, owing to the extensive orders which have been
received from parties usually supplied by the London market.
