IMMEDIATELY subsequent to our last publication, a sudden and great alteration took place in the exchange with all the great commercial places in Europe, so as to render remittances for the sales of merchandize more favourable by 10 to 15 per cent., which circumstance, together with the new Sugar Act, permanently fixing the export duty on raw and clayed sugars at 6d. per cwt. only, and the bounty on single refined 50. per cwt.. and 10s. extra on double refined, being more favourable for the shipper than for four months preceding, by ès. per cwt. en raw, 11s. on clayed, and 15s. on refined, has caused a steady and considerable demand to take place, and prices have consequen ly been fully maintained, and refined sugars for home consumption have supported an advance of 6s. to 8s. per cwt. The demand for coffee for exportation has also been very considerable the quantity shipped within the last month amounting to about 4,500 tons; and the prices of the qualities most in demand, as will be seen by the Price Current, have advanced ss. to 10s. per cwt. About 1,500 bags of Bourbon and Java coffee are declared for sale the 20th inst. by the East India Company, which may be the means of proving whether the present prices are likely to be maintained. The stocks, both of coffee and sugar, are progressively declining, and every month presents the appearance of the supply soon becoming unequal to the demand. Rum, pimento, and dye-woods, continue steady; the former article hardly supports the prices of last month. Spices of all kinds have been in demand, and a trifling advance obtained. Black pepper continues in request at 11d. to 11 d. per lb.: about 7,000 bags are declared for sale the 10th inst. to be put up at od. per lb. No supplies of American produce worth mentioning have yet taken place, and cottens of the growth of the United States consequently continue to maintain very high prices; the present stock being so very much reduced, that it may be doubted whether, for some time to come, the supplies will prove sufficient for the demand. Tobaccos begin to arrive in sufficient quantity to cause the price to approach its former level. The funds have remained steady through the last month, at about the rate at which they closed the preceding month. A reference to the Table, as well as to that of Exchange and Bullion, will clearly shew the effects of the impending political state of Europe upon the financial interests of this country, both upon its foreign transactions as well as its internal.
