firm: but in the week ending the 16th instant, in consequence of favourable accounts from Liverpool, a brisk speculative demand began, and the sales amounted to 11,000 bales: viz.-6000 Surats, middling, 64d.; fair, 6d. a 63d.; good fair, 7d. a 7d.; good, 7fd. a 7d.; 3000 Bengals, ordinary, 5d. a 5d.; middling, 5d. a 6d. ; fair, 6d. a 68d.; good fair, 64d. a 6ğd.; 2000 Madras, fair, 6 d. a 64d.; good fair, 7d. a 7d.; good, 7d. a 74d., all in bond; in other descriptions only 120 Boweds, middling to fair, 8d. a 83d.; and 25 Pernams, 12d., also in bond. The sales in the week ending to-day have been trifling, but the holders continue very firm, expecting a speedy improvement. At Liverpool the sales from 16th August to 20th September, were 53,880 bags, the arrivals nearly 46,000.

Sugar. The business done at the beginning of the month was not considerable, the holders being very firm, and the prices on the whole inclined to rise. The most sales were effected in the week before last, when about 4000 casks of Muscovades were sold. Last week the demand for good and fine Muscovades was considerable, but inferior qualities were rather lower. There was a great demand last week for lumps for Hamburg at an advance of is. per cwt. This morning the market looks well.

Coffee. The sales have on the whole been considerable, and some fluctuations have taken place in the prices, which were rather higher at the beginning of this month; but there has been a considerable reduction (from 4s. to 6s. per cwt.) and the sales this morning went off hea

vily, the St. Domingo being mostly taken in; the prices of the Coffee which sold were, however, fully as high as last week, but there was no animation in the biddings; good ordinary Jamaica, 80s. a 838.; fine ordinary, 84s. 6d. a 85s. 6d. ; fine fine ordinary, 93s. a 95s.; ordinary middling, 102s. a 102s. 6d.; middling to good middling, 107s. a 110s. 6d. ; good ordinary pale St. Domingo was taken in, 83s. a 84s.; the fine ordinary sold at 85s.

Hemp, Flax, and Tallow. - The Tallow market has been very steady, and was very brisk a week ago, yellow candle being at 39s., and in the course of last week it rose to 41s. The favourable accounts of the fisheries have occasioned a fall, and 40s. is now the nearest price. Hemp has been steady in price.

Oils. The Brunswick, of Hull, arrived with thirty-six Fish, a full ship, gives a general and most favourable account of the other vessels; Whale Oil has been offered at 221., but there are not any buyers: prices are now expected to go very low. In Seed Oils there is no alteration.

Rum, Brandy, and Hollands.-The advertisement of the Government contract for 100,000 gallons caused the demand to become brisker last week, but to day the market is heavy. Brandy, which was heavy on account of the favourable reports of the vintage, has become more firm. For the best marks free on board to arrive, 3s. 2d.; housed, 3s. 3d. to 3s. 4d. is the nearest price.

The East India Company's quarterly sale of Indigo is fixed for 7th October, and the Spice sale for 10th November.
