Tea.—The news by the overland mail placed the market in a very
unsettled state; the few transactions that have taken place are at
a decline of fully 2d per lb on all common kinds; in the better sorts
nothing has been done,
The public sales of Indigo brought forward on the Sth instant
comprised 24 chests Bengal, 23 Oude, 49 Bombay Fig, and 164
serons Caracca ; the Bengal sold at a reduction of 3d per lb, and
in some instances rather more for consuming qualities, which
ranged from 43 Sd to 5s 9d ; about 3 chests shippers went at Gs 2d
to 8s lod ; none of the Oude or Fig found buyers ; subsequently,
however. 35 chests of the latter were taken, but the price as not
transpired. Of the Caracca 143 serons sold steadily, good and
sobres realizing 5s 6d to 8s 2d, and ordinary and middling 4s 8d to
Is 5d per lb in bond. Small sales of Terra Japonica and 40 tons

Savanilla Fustic at ..€4 15s to .€4 17s ed. and a few tons Lima
Nicaragua Wood xl3 per ton. Turpentine has declined 3d to 6d
per cwt., lls 9d being the highest bid for 500 brls: of good quality
which were offered on Tuesday, and which not being accepted,
are going into store. For American Tar there is a moderate de-
mand, and for 1000 brls., just landed, 14s to 14s 6d has been given
from the quay. Montreal Pot Ashes are lower, 28s 6d having been
accepted for new Ashes ; 300 to 400 brls. of an old import have also
been sold at some slight reduction. Pearl Ashes are in very limited
demand at 295. In Linseed there is no alteration ; 1000 saeks and
350 pockets of East India brought 52s per quarter. Bees' Wax is
in very limited request, a small parcel of African sold at €7 13s
per cwt., duty paid. Hides.—The market continues steady, and
fair prices have been generally obtained; 5000 Salted Monte Video
Ox have been sold at aid, and 1500 Buenos Ayres Or. and Cow at
4d to 4jl for Ist rubbed. Sad to &Id for 2nd rubbed, 6id to 62d for
brined unassorted, tild to dirt for Ist rubbed, and 530 per 2nd
rubbed, and 2200 Buffalo Hides at 44d to 43el per lb for sound. For

more than 50 hhds. without change in price.
In Brimstone some small sales have been made at £9 per ton,
and in one instance, at a reduction on the first price, from the ship-
side. Nothing worthy of notice has been reported in Sumac.
There has appeared an improved demand for Agols, about 160 casks
Figuera and Oporto having been sold, the latter at 305 to 325, the
former at prices not allowed to transpire. 10 casks of Naples red
brought 345, 10 cases Florence red 475, and 20 boxes white Bologna
48s per cwt. About 20 casks brown Tartar have beeen sold at 50s
to 525, as in quality, and a few casks of Cream of Tartar at 80s to
815 per cwt. No alteration in Madders or Roots. 60 hds.
Quercitron Bark were sold at previous rates. The demand for
Olive Oil, which for some weeks past has been limited, has this
week revived, and the sales have reached upwards of 100 tuns ; of
which 50 were Sicily Oil at -€67, the rest Trieste, Mogadore and
Galipoli ; these sales include some parcels brought coastwise, as
well as by Dealers, and have reduced•the disposable stock here to a
narrow compass. In Fish Oils there is no alteration to notice,
except a rather improved demand for Cod, and .e 26 would now be
given, but that price is generally refused. Pale Rape and Linseed
Oils have been dull during the week, but no alteration can be made
in the quotations. Oil of Turpentine continues without inquiry,
except for retail quantities. The sales of Palm Oil have again
been extensive, upwards of 1000 tons having been sold, chiefly at
£34 to £34 ss, but small lots have realized -€34 108 to ..€'34 15s ;
a good inquiry continues, in part for exportation. In Hemp no
transactions are reported, but the Government contract having
been taken at full prices, as given a firmer appearance to the
market; 300 bales of Jute sold at Xl3 15s to .€l4 per ton. The
Tallow market as assumed a more settled aspect, and the inquiry

upon the whole continues good; for Petersburg yellow Candle 48s
to 48s Gd has been paid, and 48s for Odessa; about 250 casks
Buenos Ayres Tallow have been sold during the week, at 39s 3d for
inferior but firm sorts, up to 44s 3d for fine quality.
