SMITHFIELD MARKET—THIS DAY.
Although the number is not quits an large as last week,
still the supply of Beasts is considerable; and, the weather
bein apparently on the change, buyer are exceedingly
cautious. We cannot quote higher than 3a. 61 for good
qualities; but that price is exceeded in a few instances. We
have a few more Sheep on offer, and the weather also ope-
rates In this department, especially as regards big Sheep.
We are enabled to quote 4.. 4d. for sizeable Downs, but
this must be considered an extreme price. Good Calves are
not plentiful, and trade is rather mare cheerful for them.

Sheep, and 108 Calves ; Scotland, 600 Beasts; 2,600 from
Norfolk and Suffolk; and 300 from the northern and mid-
