Sugar. The demand for this article continued steady during last month, and is now advancing in price. New Sugars meet with a ready sale, and at fair prices. In general these are purchased as soon as landed. The deliveries from the warehouses in London, for the week ending March 3d, was 4326 casks, of which it appears 3700 were for home consumpt. In Liverpool the stock is reduced to about 1000 hhds, in Glasgow to 200 casks, and in London the stock on hand is reduced above 2000 hhds less than what remained on hand at the corresponding period last year. The deliveries have lately been on a very extensive scale, and every appearance of their continuing so. The crops in many of the Colonies, it is now ascertained, will be late, from the unfavourable weather. No great quantities from the new crop can be expected before the months of May and June. The supply of good Sugars must therefore be completely exhausted before the new crop comes to the market. A rise in price, beyond the present quotations, must therefore take place. The stock of Refined Sugar is considerably reduced. The business done in this line is, however, not very extensive. A new transit duty is imposed on Refined Sugars in the kingdom of the Netherlands, which, it is supposed, will have the effect of driving the trade into the channel of the Hanse towns. The orders from the Continent are extensive. Foreign Sugars are in good request. In Russia, it is expected a new duty will be laid on Crushed Sugars.―Molasses continue in steady demand.―Coffee has been for some time in limited demand, and, compared with the former brisk demand, the sales have been dull. Prices, however, are supported at all the three principal ports. The deliveries from the London warehouses for shipment were 6519 casks and bags, for the two weeks preceding the 3d current. The holders calculate, that notwithstanding the present stagnation in the market, and the very high prices, that the demand for export will be much more extensive this year than last.―Cotton. The demand for this article, particularly East India Cotton, has rather improved, both in London and Liverpool. The importation continues great, and yet the prices are not only maintained, but in some instances advanced. The high prices abroad, however, must render the importation a very poor trade to the importer, and, in many instances, the loss must be considerable. The briskness of the demand for the manufactures of this country still continues, and which is a sure sign of their full activity.―Tobacco. The demand for, and prices of, this article are in proving. The accounts from the Continent are more favourable than for some time past these have been. Good Black Virginias are in considerable request.―Dyewoods. The price of Dyewoods have for some time past been merely nominal; yet the prices are maintained, and the speculators calculate upon an advance. Considerable purchases have been made, upon the confidence of a great demand arising from the general activity of the manufactures of the country. Indeed this is a very fair data to go upon. The demand for Logwood in particular is considerably revived.―Indigo. The prices are improving, and the demand considerably revived. The holders confidently expect an advance. In Liverpool there is none in the importers' hands. There is a small advance on last quotations.―Pimento. At Liverpool there has been some inquiry after this article. At Glasgow the sales have been confined to a small parcel.―Hemp, Flax, and Tallow. The demand for Tallow is
