COMMERCIAL REPORT.

COLONIAL PRODUCE.-Sugars.-The market still continues dull, and prices have declined still farther since our last. On Friday a public sale of 355 hhds. 20 barrels Muscovades were brought forward; the middling and good qualities went off with much briskness; low browns sold heavily at a farther reduction; middling Tortola sold freely at 65s. to 68s., Trinidad 66s. to 68s., good St Lucia 64s. to 68s. The refined market has also become heavy, and purchases can be made lower in that and in foreign and East India sugars. Molasses are in brisk demand at 32s. Cotton. There has been lately an extensive demand for Pernambuco cotton and Bengals for exportation. For the latter 6d. would readily be given for fair shipping quality, but the holders decline selling. There are, in consequence, no parcels in the market. The purchases since Tuesday last consist of 1400 Pernambuco, 191d. to 20d. in bond; 80 bags bowed Georgia, 124d. to 13d.; 22 Demerara, 15d.; 150 good fair Surats, 8d.; 70 good fair Bengals, 64d., very good 6 d.; and a few Orleans, duty paid, were taken at 12d. Coffee.—The market of Britain, notwithstanding a recent improvement in the prices at Antwerp and in Holland, remains in a depressed state, and the prices are in a great degree nominal. Rum. This article is also heavy in the market, and the prices, in consequence, nominal. Spices. Yesterday an extensive sale took place at the East India House, as follows:Pepper-2100 Company's black sold at 74d., 3900 ditto bought in; 300 bags, privilege, light, 61d., heavy 7d. and 74d.; white 10d. and 104d. Saltpetre.-1000 tons Company's, 32s. to 32s. 6d. ; 104 ditto, licensed, 35s. to 40s. 6d. About 400 tons, Company's, bought in. Cinnamon.-First quality, 750 bales 10s. 1d. to 10s. 3d., 100 bales bought in; second quality, 84 bales, 9s. Id., 433 bought in; uncleared of former sales, 7s. 3d. to 8s.; third quality, 221 bales, 7s. 7d. to 7s. 8d., and one lot at 7s. 9d.

About 450 chests inferior, L. 6, 10s. to L. 7; middling, L. 9, 5s.; bastard, 45s. to 60s. Sago.-Pale red, 20s. to 23s.; good brown. 25s. to 30s.; fine brown, 39s. to 41s. 6d. About one-fourth sold. Ginger.-Ordinary and middling quality, 198. to 23s., about one-third sold. Arrow root bought in Is. 64. The whole went off heartily, except nutmegs. Tobacco. The deliveries of tobacco from the warehouses during the last month have been considerable; 1322 hhds. for exportation, 455 hhds. for home consumption. The stock is in consequence decreasing, and no prospect of further supplies for some time. The demand for tobacco, however, continues limited, and several parcels are offering at very low rates.

EUROPEAN PRODUCE.-The prices of foreign Tallow have been stated at a small reduction, and the demand is still limited. Letters from Petersburgh yesterday state the prices there as unvaried, the exchange standing at 11gd.-Little business has been doing in Flae or Hemp, and the prices remain unvaried.-Brandy has obtained a small advance in price, on account of unfavourable reports from the French vineyards, which have been injured by the frosts.-Geneva continues to decline.-May 11.
