fingiAlL....-The Sugar market has been so beavy for
some time past, that the holders towards the close of
last week were induced to effect sale; by sabmitiieg
to a small decline ; the small parcels sold by the ins.
porters might be stated at a reduction of Is. per cwt.;
the speculators, who hold the greater proportion of
the Muscovades at Market, were so anxious to make
sales, timt.in several instances prices 24. lower were
submitted to • In the latter instances, brawn Jamai-
ca. wets sold at 76a. ; the other qualities in propor-
tion. ..1
,The Seger market is again heavy this morning, and
.the holders evince some disposition to accept prices
even a shade lower than last week ; the decline in
M escovades may he stated Is.* 2s. for parcels in im-
porters' hands ; those held on speculation at the re-
ductjer:lf 2s. a 3s.

Illepew rates of duty the present import rates
01-304. en Musrosades, 355. on Cloyed', and 40.. per
41. its Fast India Sugars, are proposed to be made
verettinent.
in the refined market there was much enquiry, and
•lik considerable disposition evinced to do business; but
the shippers still state that their orders are limited to
prices 3s. a ss. per cwt. under the present prices.-
.Several. sales were however reported generally at a
decline in the prices of • about Is.; crushed mars
wire in considerable request. Molasses were in de-
mand at 355.
There was nn attention in foreign Sugars.
Corrze.-Yesterday and this forenoon there wig
much briskness in the demand by private contract ;
the request was particularly for good and fine middling
Dutch and Jamaica, but the quantity of Coffee at
market is so reduced; particularly the finer descrip-
titres, that the shippers could not execute their orders;
St. Domingo and other foreign descriptions were
also In great demand. A cargo of St. Domino to
Arrive at Glasgosi, which had been sold at 1024. a
few days ago, was resold at 1035. ; parcels of St.
Domingo in London, however ordinary, could not
be purchased ender 1094., and for good quality 1111.,
with every probability of these prices bring realised
The accounts from the Continent respecting Coffee
continue exceedingly favourable: the prices are ad-
vancing, and very small stocks are reported in the
House Towns and in Holland.
• lams Paovistoms, &c.-The prices of India Beef
are rather lower; the demand has been limited ;
prime Mess is stilt in good demand, on account of
'the short supply.-Pork realizes good prices with fa
citify. Bacon is in limited request. The Butter
market has been depressed by the extensive public
Ries brought forward, the market is however again
teviving. The last sale of Butter on the 31st ult.
went off at prices fully 10s. higher than those pre-
viously, and the sales by private contract since are
reported to be at a farther advance of 35.. 4s. The
stock of hatter is reported to be only about a third of
the supply of Jest year, and from the late spring of
this year, the holders anticipate high prices ; the pre.
10.111 currency is however 3Us. per cwt. higher than in.
the beginning of April, 1817.
Tobacco.-There is little doing in Tobacco; the
holders continue sanguine of obtaining higher prices.
Itice.-The proposed reduction in the dusty on
American, and new duty on East India, will oecasiou
much dectuation„, A cargo of Carolina Rice is re-•
ported to be sold at 46.. •
RUN, BRANDY, and BOLLARDS.-The prices of
'4lLom are *idiots' satiation; the market rather
beefy. The deliveries (torn the larehouse last week
are nearly 1200 puncheons, the greater proportion
far export ; tee purchases were made, we begrort,,
some weeks ago. The iuferier descriptions of Broady
continue to decline materially. In Geneva there is
no alteration.
INDIOO.-The proposed new duty on East India
Indigo will create a great seriatim. ; the prices are
nearly nominal, on account of the approaching sale
at the East India-house.
lIESIP, FLAX, and Taztow.-The prises of In.
reign Tillow are eistirely nominal; the proposed new
duty ...ill place the late extensive sellers in an un-
pleaseat situation, if the parcels arrive late in the
season ; the sew duty, if carried, may be then im-
