COMMERCIAL REPORT.

COLONIAL PRODUCE.-Sugars.-The demand for Muscovadoes during the month has continued steady, and the business done last week was more considerable than for some time preceding. The market has again, however, become heavy, though there are no sellers at any reduction in price. The request for refined goods has kept steady, and the transactions reported last week were very considerable. Two considerable public sales of East India sugar took place last week, and the prices were from 2s. to 3s. under the last East India House sale.-Cotton. An extensive sale took place at the India House on the 1st instant, when 8000 bags were actually sold; the Surat at a decline of d. to 1d. per lb. the Bengal at a decline of 1s. 4d. to 3s. 8d. The demand last week was languid, and the purchases confined to East India descriptions. This forenoon 246 bags Vera Cruz sold very high, realizing 2d. and 24d-Coffee. The market has been heavy, and a very considerable reduction in price has taken place. Two public sales this forenoon went off with briskness, and at prices rather higher than the preceding week.-Rum. The demand for Leeward Island has greatly revived since last week; the quantity then taken for immediate exportation was reported to be very considerable.-Tobacco has continued in steady demand, and large purchases have been made; the manufacturers have been buying, and as the season is now advancing, a good demand for home consumption is expected.-Oils. The prices of Greenland have given way about L. 3 per ton, and the sales are heavy at the decline. Spermacetti has fallen about the same rate; and other oils are in limited request, although no reduction of price is quoted.

EUROPEAN PRODUCE.-Tallow.The arrival of the missing whale ships, and the favourable reports of the fishing, have occasioned a great stagnation in the tallow mar ket, and little business has been doing. Hemp has also given way; and Flax con tinues heavy. The last accounts from St Petersburgh state the exchange a shade high. er, 10 9-16ths.

27.-DEATH OF THE DUKE OF RICHMOND.-His Grace the Duke of Richmond died suddenly in Upper Canada, while making a tour through that province. The cause of his death is thus stated in a letter from Quebec :-" While at his summer residence at William-Henry, before he commenced his tour to the upper province, he was bitten by a tame fox, which shortly afterwards died of the malady. No symptoms, however, appeared for nearly forty days after the circumstance, when his Grace being on his return from a visit to a new settlement, in a very obscure situation, where he had to walk thirty miles on foot in excessive hot weather, no road for a horse being yet made, he found him. self affected.

His Grace was, according to his own request, interred in the cathedral church of St Paul's, at Quebec, on the 4th September. His Grace was the lineal descendant of the first Duke of Richmond, natural son of King Charles 11. by a French lady, who was created by his Majesty Duchess of Portsmouth, and by Louis XIV.
