VARIATIONS OF BAROMETER, THERMOMETER, &c. at Nine o'Clock A.M. By T. BLUNT, Mathematical Instrument Maker to his Majesty, No. 22, CORNHILL. LONDON MARKETS, Aug. 19, 1817. COTTON.-The East India Company bave declared 1500 bags Bengals for sale 22d inst., and it is anticipated that the quantity will be increased to 3000. The late speculative demand for Bengals bas entirely ceased. The sales of Cotton since Tuesday last little exceed 1200 packages290 Boweds were sold 19d, to 20d.; 200 Surinams 2s. Od to 2s. 14d.; 100 Maranhams at 28.; 50 Pernambuco 2s. 2d.; 31 Bourbon 29. 4d. to 2s. 6d.; and exclusive of duty, 400 Bengals were sold 103d. to 1248.; and a small parcel Surats 15 d. to 16d. SUGAR,-Since Tuesday last the demand for Muscovades became limitted, and purchases might be made about 1s. per cwt. lower; the demand for the home trade and for refining bas however been so very extensive, that the holders of Muscovades are sanguine that high prices will be maintained, and though the market was heavy, there were few holders inclined to effect sales by submitting to any depression; a few parcels were however disposed ofat a reduction of Is. A sale of Barbadoes Sugar last week, 189 hhds, and 51 tierces, went off freely, much about the late prices. The market this forenoon has been equally heavy, and though many of the holders will submit to no depression whatever, yet the prices may be stated fully Is. lower than Tuesday last; the accumulation of the stock is trivial for the season of the year, on account of the extensive deliveries; last week above 4600 casks, chiefly for the home consumption and refining; the quantity exported is about 350 casks. The supply of Refined goods at market has been more considerable than for some time past, and as the extensive purchasers have for the present supplied themselves, the market is rather heavy at a reduction of Is. to 2s.-- Molasses is in good demand. In foreign Sugars the business done has pot been considerable; the market this forenoon is rather heavy. COFFEE.-The Market continues subject to great fluctuations: On Wednesday, by public sale and private contract, the demand was languid; the prices Is. to 2s. per cwt, lower. At the sale of Thursday, 408 casks 157 bags, the demand again revived; two or three extensive purchasers on" speculation appeared at market, selecting the middling and good middling Coffee, which has for a length of time rated much lower in proportion than the ordinary des criptions; the whole of the sale went off with much briskness, and the prices were considerably higher-middling Dominica, in large parcels, selling formerly at 95s. and 96s. was immediately run up to 98s. to 101s. being an advance of 4s. to 5s. per cwt.; fine middling Dominica realized 110s. the latter the most superior description that we have seen for a length of time in the market: some good middling 103s. 6d. The Dutch desriptions of Coffee may also be stated 25. higher; good to fine ordinary 90s. 6d. to 97s. 6. ; middling 98s. Jamaica Coffee, with the exception of a few lots middling, which sold at higher rates, could not be stated at any variation. The Foreign descriptions were unvaried-very brown Havannah being sold 89s. 6d. to 91s.; and with colour 92s. to 94s. IRISH PROVISIONS, &c.-There is considerable interest excited as to the prices at which the ensuing season will open: a general opinion is entertained that the prices will open at high rates, and that the supply will not be extensive: this anticipation, and the extensive supplies required by Government, have occasioned the bolders of Beef and Pork to be indifferent as to effecting sales at the present currency.—t Bacon continues heavy, and no immediate little variation in the demand or in the prices prospect of an improvement.-There is of Butter. CORN.-There had been several samples of new Wheat and Oats exhibited at Mark-lane some days ago, but until yester day there were no new parcels of any consideration; the few new samples of Wheat were of an uncommon fine quality, the Oats were also of a good description and heavy. The supply of English Wheat was limited, and the arrivals of Foreign were unimportant; the sales were notwithstanding difficult to be effected at a farther reduction of fully 4s. per quarter on every description. In Rye or Barley scarcely any thing was done; Oats were very heavy at a decline of 1s.; new Beans were 2s. lower; Grey Peas without alteration. There was a small supply of Rape Seed, and many purchasers; the samples were taken off freely at 481. and afterwards we believe 501, was obtained.-Linseed was also much inquired after, and if any had been offering for sale, a considerable advance would have been obtained. There were a few samples of new Trefoil exhibited; the quality fair, but not nearly of so fine a description as the crop of 1815; the whole went off at 26s. to 36s, according to quality. American Flour was in very cousiderable request. SPICES.-There is little variation in the prices of Spice since the sale at the India House; on Wednesday the Cassia Lignea sold at 12. to 134. for small bundles ; large 91, 17s. to 11. 10s.; good Buds 16. 3s, to 17, 15s. The Ginger sold 42s, to 47s, TOBACCO.-There bave been no transaction in Tobacco. A cargo of new Virginia has arrived, but not yet been landed, the quality in consequence not ascertained. RICE.-At the India House last week the East India Rice of good colour sold 24s. to 27s.; the ordinary yellow 19s. to 21s. Carolina, by private contract, realized 38s. by public sale 38s. 6d. to 39s. SALE at the INDIA-HOUSE of DISTILLED OILS.-24 bottles Nutmegs, 1s. 1d. per oz.; 197 bottles Mace and Nutmegs, withdrawn: 40 bottles Nutmegs, 15d.; 3 bottles Mare, 13d.; 231 bottles Cassia Oil, 16d, to 20d. COALS, yesterday's Market-NEWCAS TLE-Adairs 41s. 6d., Coxlodge 42s. 9d., Eighton 40s. 6d., Hebburn Main 42s. 9d., Heaton 43s. 3d., Holywell 41s., Killingworth 42s. 9d., Tanfield Moor 37s. 3d., Townley 41s. 6d., Walls End Howard 44s. 6d., Walls End Bell and Co. 44s. 6d., Walls End Bewicke, 43s. 9d., Walls End Ellison 44s. 6d., Walls End South Gosforth 43s., Walls End Newmarch 43s, to 43s. 3d., Walls End Manor 42s., Walls End Russel 43s. 6d. to 43s. 9d., Walls End Riddell 43s. 9d., Willington 43s, 3d., Wylam 38s.-SUNDERLAND-Eden Main 41s. 6d., Hedworth 39s. 3d., Nesham 42. TIMBER.-By public sale-350 loads of Pine Timber, lately imported 78s, to 84s. ; 5 Masts, 105, to 106. PUBLIC SALE of HIDES.-431 salted Jamaica Hides, 5d. to 5 d.; 55 ditto Calf, 83. 17 Dry Hides, 4d.; 720 Mogadore Goat Skins, out, RUM, BRANDY, and HOLLANDS.There have been very considerable, purchases of Leewards Island Rum, chiefly it is stated on speculation; there is still an expectation that a Government contract will soon be advertised. The sales of Jamaica since our last are rather limited; the prices of Rums generally are a shade higher.- Brandy is rather heavy; there have been some considerable parcels sold, to arrive within a given time; if the supplies come to market before the day specified, the prices will go considerably lower; otherwise the stock in the market, which is trivial, will realize a very high currency, if purchased to supply the contract.—In GeDeva there is no alteration. NAVAL STORES.-There are several parcels of Rough Turpentine at market. Tar has been in request at higher prices, but the demand is rather giving way again. Rosin is also a shade hsgher. HEMP, FLAX, and TALLOW.--Tal low continued to advance last week, and yesterday we believe 62s. was realized for Yellow Candle: but as the Baltic ships continue to arrive even though the winds are still to the westward, the market to-day may be considered rather heavy.-As the quantity of Flax at market is limited, and the demand having considerably revived, the prices are advancing.-Hemp is also more in request at a higher currency. ASHES are in request at advancing prices. THE FISHERIES, OILS, &c.-There is much interest excited as to the success of the Fisheries; the latest accounts are definitive that the fishing is very indifferent, and as the statements are of a recent date, when all the vessels were leaving the ice, there can be little doubt that the accounts may be relied on; however it is to be mentioned that there is a probability that many ships may fall in with fish on their return, as a vessel that arrived from Greenland a few days ago, reported to have only two fish, met with great success the few last days, and has ten fish; this is however a solitary instance. The following may be stated to be the result of the fishing this season :-About 150 vessels were engaged, of these five were lost, the remainder have from 750 to 800 fish, which at a moderate computation may yield 11, 000 tons of Oil. Last season the quantity was 12,500 tons, the deficiency is therefore very great; but we know not if it will warrant the great advance that has taken place in the prices of Fish Oils.Greenland Oil, chiefly if not entirely by speculation, has advanced with rapidity from 271. to 451. per ton. Last year the prices began about 281, and were certainly soon run up much higher by the extensive export demand; but the great advance will in some measure check this request; it is however to be observed, that as nearly the whole quantity to London has been pur chased at various prices on arrival, the trade will ultimately have to submit to the high prices demanded by the speculators, if they do not receive a supply from the outports, which they now calculate upon, and will not purchase at the present prices; they state the whole to be speculation unconnected with the trade, and that as soon as the time necessary for boiling at the outports is completed, they will receive a plentiful In consequence supply at lower rates. of the advance of Whale Oil, every other description is quoted much higher.-There is no Seal Oil at market.-Rape and Linseed Oil are much higher; the former advancing also on account of the rise in the prices of Seed. The holders of Galipoli Oil are asking greatly higher prices. but no extensive sales have yet been affected; there is however little doubt of an advance.
