The stock generally was in good condition, sad although acknowledged ultalf•fatted steers, many were sold for slaughtering. There was an immense concourse of graziers,farrners, eattle-breedere, stock •keepers, and other. iaterested in cattle, present at this great annual gathering. There was a ready denied for all best issoriptions of stock at the following prices. vie. :—Mikh cows—large framed Yorkshire bred cows ia full milk were bought by London dairymen at 21/. to 231. each ; and well bred io calf cows 161. to DM. ; small mend tows for country dairying, 131. to 161. ; Ayrshire ditto, 111. to 141. ; and Alderney cows, 126 to 161. ; Herefords—troll grown oxen ready for the fatting skids, 121. to M. ; and well grazed two Iyear•old steers, 91. to 101.

Useful three year old beasts made 111. ; two year old ditto, $l. ; and yearlings, 41. ; milking cows. 131, ; and Welsh heifers, 71. A large bari um.' was traseacted in this field, and the inherent custom of Welsh cattle dealers to shout on the completion of a sale of cattle was fully sustained. Scotch cattle- -Passing from the above fields, and , pro. needing throu;b the village of Barnet , situate on the north sole, will he found the fields especially apportioned for Scotch cattle, and where busbies,' is extensively carried on in the most calm and quiet manner. The importations from Scotland this year were of the first•class—comprising the " poled Soot," the Highland steer, and the Scotch runts.

The un sold stock will be on offer to-day (Thursday); and the home fair, which comprises a large show, will be open. The fair will continue three days. • A Pans FIGHT WITH rag POLICE LOOKING ON.— A somewhat exciting event occurred last week in the suburbs of Portsmouth. A firlit for 5/. a aide had for some time been arranged to come off between two men, Carroll and Biros', thelatterof whom was considered, or considered himself, to be the champion of the district. The time and place appointed was at as early boar on Tuesday morning, near the Oyster Home, at the end of the canal. The police, however got scent of the affair, sad a peens of them were in attend ance at the appointed spot at three o'clock, mid when the " fancy" arrived, Hwy were considerably annoyed to find the place thus mcupied. They moo saw that it was "no go" in that quarter. and immediately set out for another locality, and being provided with cabs sod carts, mom dis tanced the polies, who had to foot it. They at length came up with the prize 4ightern, in a fieldbelooging to Mr. Nance, at Connor, and found that owing to the men having had so much start of them, a ring badbees pitched, and several rounds fought. The stakes were, however, immediately drown on the approach of the polies, and the party set off again to the wateraide of Lamsteme Harbour, where they took to boa awed rowed emus to a Om ogled No Man's land, which at low water is a little Weed, first sod dry. They were sow is the county jtuisclictioe, and the br polies hid to look on and quietly whams the figlit deed, they would have been unable to mem the water, as the fighting party had taken all the boats. Hera the ruffians fought H rounds, and did not reach Portsmouth again until near mid-clay. We may add that Barn" th e • champion," was defeated.— West Sewer Ulyette.

The funds have risen g per cent., and most of the principal English railway stocks shoat 1 per cent. A more confident feeling prevails throughout the Stock Exchange. The India Five per Cents. have risen frilly i per cent. The stock is now quoted 1031 to I, and the scrip 1031 to mi. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter**, telegram, the Three per Cent.

Yesterday being the 4th of the month, a fair do. maud was experienced iu the discount market, but, good bills being taken at 3;; to 31 per cent., the ap plications at the Bank of England were but limited; It is probable, therefore, that the result of the day's business is a considerable diminution in the =omit of private securities held by that establishment. La Some departments of the internal trade the numbet of bills returned last evening seems to have beer above the average, but they arc mostly fur sma4 amounts. About 60,0001. in gold was bought by the Bank yes.. tertla), making 267,000/. since the date of the lam return.
