BRISTOL, Tot•xsiosv.---We haul a good supply
of fat beef at our market to-day, including about 40
from Ireland. Business, however, Wii very Ilat, and
some were left unsold. Best descriptions fetched from
Si.. to 84s. per cwt., and middling samples front 735.
to 775. We haul a large show of mutton, but it was
not in extensive request, and a good deal remained in
the pens at the close of the market. Best wethers (in
wool) fetched from siSd. to oid., and shorn yy‘d.
per lii. Ilcavy ewes were sold at id. per lb. less.
lamb Was rather plentiful, and it sold freely at is. per
lli. There were very few store cattle on offer, and
still fewer wanted, trade being still very dull, and
prices high. We haul a fair supply of mach cows,
which met with a rather better sale at late rates.
There were about 1,000 pigs on offer, and with a
pretty active demand, they were all sold. liacon
pigs realised its., and porkers from lan. to lan. 3d.
per score.
METROPOLITAN, Tit I'ItSDAY. The supply of
beasts is by no means large, but it exceeds the de-
mand. The hot weather makes buyers very cautious,
for it is difficult to realise Monday's prices for any-
thing. The number of sheep fresh up is not large,
but prices are lower, and a clearance cannot he made.
Choice lambs only are in request, trade generally is
very dull. Calves are lower, with a very slow trade.
There are 40 English and 20 Dutch milch cows on
offer; trade for them is exceedingly dull. Our foreign
supply consists of 200 beasts, 20 milch cows, 3,050
• and 350 calves.

CATTLE'

BRISTOL, TIIURSDAY.—FuII average supply o
fat beef although the Irish consignments were only
some so. Trade, however was rather quiet, and at
the close of the market there was some left in the
pens. Best samples fetched from 82s. to 80. per
cwt. ; middling sorts were almost unsaleable, at from
705. to 735. We had a very large supply of sheep,
but owing to the hot weather the demand was very
restricted. Best wethers changed hands at from 7.34 d.
to &I. per lb. ; heavy ewes, 654 d. to 7d. We had
also a very large supply of lamb, but the season is fast
passing away, and the inquiry was much less active,
prices ranging from 7544. to 84. per lb. We had
about 800 store cattle on offer, but the trade is still
very dull, and it was only the declining prices that
tempted dealers to speculate. We had no store sheep
on offer, and there was no inquiry for any. Milch
cowswere rather short, and a moderate trade prevailed. I
There were about 300 pigs on offer, and all were sold,
bacan at its. 94. to 125., porkers 125. to 125. 3d. per
wore.

METROPOLITAN, Tttuastiay.—We have a
much smaller supply of beasts, especially of English;
trade is, however, (lull, and on the average prices are
not so good as on Monday. The number of sheep is
also smaller; Monday's quotations are well main-
tained, but trade is not brisk. There is scarcely any
demand at all for lambs ; only a few choicest can be
sold, and these at lower rates. There are so English
and 20 Dutch milch cows on offer; trade for them and
for calves is unaltered. Our foreign supply consists of
370 beasts, 4,5120 sheep, and 520 calves.
