Sugar. The Sugar market since our last has continued in a languid and depressed state. There is no immediate appearance of any revival of the trade on the demand. The unprecedented pressure upon the manufacturing districts has no doubt tended to depress the Sugar, both from destroying confidence in the commercial world, and lessening the internal consumpt of the article. The stock on hand exceeds that of the corresponding period last year by 20,000 hhds. The reduction of one-third of the neat proceeds of Sugar imported, owing to the depreciation in value, must return with a heavy weight on the planter and shipper, and which must again return with an equal weight upon the industry and trade of the parent state, from the curtailment of stores and expenses in the colonies, and from the want of remittances in that quarter, to pay debts owing to individuals in the parent state. From the depressed state of the market, the duty has been reduced to the lowest point, viz. 27s. per cwt. No sales of any consequence can be effected. In refined goods, the market, which had been lively, is also become heavy, and the quotations merely nominal. The principal part of the supplies of Sugar of this year's crop are now arrived in this country, and if trade in general would resume its former activity, Sugar would no doubt advance. But of this there is no immediate prospect.Coffee. The demand for Coffee, which had for a considerable time been lively, is also greatly subsided, and the prices may be stated at a decline of 3s. per cent. The market is besides in a very languid state, and from every circumstance considered, there is but a poor prospect of any immediate revival, at least to any considerable degree. The future imports must prove losing concerns to those chiefly engaged in them, as these must have been bought in foreign markets, with the knowledge of high and advancing prices in Britain. The approach of winter also will in a considerable degree lessen the exportation to the Continent, and that must tend still further to depress the market, unless some other and favourable counteracting cause appear to increase the demand. We scarcely know from what quarter this is likely to proceed. At present all is doubt and uncertainty.Cotton. This is the only article in trade in which there has of late been any increasing price or activity. The sales in every quarter, since our last, have been considerable, and the prices advanced. The market, though lately less brisk, continues firm, and prices by no means inclined to give way. The very low price to which this article was sunk, particularly East India Cotton, is one reason why it may advance in the face of such a general stagnation of business, and the immense supplies of the article in this country. The value was some time ago certainly much below its proper level, but considering the general appearance of trade, the state of every market, and the supplies which, from various parts must continue to reach this country, we should much doubt of any great advance in the Cotton market, at least for some time to come. If the present prices and demand continue firm, we think it as much as can reasonably be expected, and more than may be anticipated.Corn. The market for all kinds of grain may be considered as generally on the decline. The uncommon and long tract of dry warm weather which we have had during July and August, has brought on an early and an abundant harvest, and which is far advanced in the grain districts in the kingdom. Of late the weather has become less favourable, but as yet no material injury has been sustained by the crops where most backward, while there is every appearance of the weather again becoming settled and fine, which, if it does, a few weeks must complete and secure the harvest throughout every district in the united kingdom. We may therefore confidently anticipate plenty in the land, and at moderate, if not at low, prices for the agricultural interests. Tobacco. There has of late been a considerable demand for revival in the Tobacco market. The home trade has taken considerable parcels out of the market, and the market for this article may be stated as having very considerably improved. The former prices were however uncommonly low. Indigo has of late come more into demand. There is considerable inquiry made after Flax. Hemp continues at our quotations, and the demand for Tallow has in some degree subsided. The price of Oil is on the advance, owing to the indifferent accounts from the different fisheries. On the whole, the market for the different kinds of Oil may be stated as lively and favour
