SUGAR AND MOLAssEs-Movements in both Of
these articles during the week Just closed show
steady improvement, ss compared with those Of
the previous week. while rates, with brisk de-
mand, have advanced, and offerings have generally
met with ready sale upon the day of their
arrival. Operations during the week In Cuban
products have been light at firm prices, without
any observable change in rates which previously
governed the market. Receipts today embrace
no hhds. of Sugar and $50 bbis. of MoIssses, all
of which were disposed Of at an early hour at

FLoUR-The week under review opened dull
and quiet, with scarcely any movement beyond
few lots for city trade; but as 1t advanced there
was noticeable improvement in the demand and
Psiaas, N consequence OF the scarcity OF the
lower grades, were advanced. on these descrip-
the cholcer brands, Of which there Is more than
an ample supply. The noticeable feature, how
ever, of this article, is failing of in exports,
which may be attributed to the unsettled cond.
ton of this market throughout the country, the
declining tendency in prices, and recent move.
ments In Cuba, TO which latter point our principal
exports were recently made. The irregularity 10
prices for lower grades is In consequence Of the
very small proportion of those descriptions in
shipments from the West, aud rates for all quail
ties below treble extra have been for some time
past governed more by the supply, than from
prices Cleaned for choicer and more abundant
offerings. Sales today embrace some 2l0O bbls.,
