SUGAR AND MoLAssEs-The market for Sugar
continues active with an advancing tendency for
choicer grades, while inferior and common quai
tiles are generally neglected. To-day's opera
tions embrace about all of the receipts of both ar
ticles viz: 420 hhds. Sugar 107l bbls and 80 half

irmer than the lower and more plentiful grades.

ed. Business to-day was only of a moderate
character and confined to joDbing and retail
lots, with very little inquiry in round way.

cult to furnish figures that would indicate ruling
rates for round lots, as movements for some days
past have been light and comparatively triflng
for this season of the year. We quote superfine
sc 3736l6 so; double extra Sc 62416 rs treble
extra Sos; choice s. 5000 so, and fancy brands
