Laguna. and £0 5s for indirect, and small parcels of Jamaica and
st. Domingo at previous rates ; in other descriptions of Dyewoods
the sales are too trifling to notice. There is a fair demand for

at 12s 4(1 to 12s 7d, and 200 brls. of choice at 13 2d. No sales re-
ported in Tar. Montreal Pot Ashes are more saleable, and 300 to

sales reported in Quercitron Bark. There has been a good demand
for Olive Oil, and about 100 tuns have been disposed of during the
week ; for Galipoli £BO has been currently paid, and the Dealers
are now obtaining £5 to £6 advance on this description. Fish
Oils are steady, and pale Seal again rather dearer, although the
demand is confined to small qualities; 15 tuns Cod realized £27,
and 20 to 30 tuns coloured Seal a little advance on former rates.
Linseed Oil has been offered, from the quay, at Is per cwt. reduc-
-1 tion. Pale Rape is without alteration, but in limited demand.
Oil of Turpentine attracts no attention except iu retail parcels, at
iithe quotation annexed. Palm Oil.—ln consequence of the arrival
of four cargoes this week, buyers have kept back in expectation of
, lower prices, but holders generally have shown no disposition to
give way, and a cargo of nearly 400 tons, destined for this market,
has been totally lost off Holyhead ; the Soap-trade being dull, the
sales that have transpired are hardly worth reporting. Hemp and
Flax are still dull of sale; about 20 tons Rhine Hemp were sold a
little below the quotation, and Petersburg clean has been freely
offered, without finding buyers. In Tallow there is little doing;
some few transactions have taken place in Petersburg yellow
Candle at 48s 3d to 48s 6d, and in Odessa at 48s per cwt., but there
is no animation in the market.
