SUGAR AND MoLAssEs-Extre duness con.
tinues 10 prevail IN The market for both Sugar
aud Molasses. There have been no sales effected
during the day of any consequence. business being
still confined TO mere nominal traffic. We hear of
some little inquiry abroad for finer grades OF
Sugar, but buyers seem TO exercise extreme eau
ton IN their purchases and cOnfne their orders to
mesger limit. There is very little business done
with the Interior for this season of the year, and
but small portion of the usual quantity of either
Sugar or MOlssses is being forwarded from here.
We couinue 10 quote Louisiana Sugar. fair TO

FLOUR-1he depression in the Flour market
continues, without any indications OF improve
ment. Although the sales of to-day in tho aggre.
gate foot mp some l400 bills, they do not disclose
any transactions Of an extensive nature, being con-
hDed TO sma and jObbiDg lots OF so aud 100 bbls.
The distinctive fea ure, however, of the market at
present is the variations and irregularities in
prices Of the finer grades OF Flour. The sales
daily during several days past have been very
little in advance Of our local requirements; hence
we infer that there has been very little done out
side Of supplying our bakers. The sales 70 day
