TALLOW MARKET.—THIS DAY.
The Tallow Market is steady, with but little doing.
Prices are quoted as follows : Town Tallow, 351. 9d. ;
Petenburg Y. C. on the spot, 375. to 38s. 9d. ; October
to December (1832), 375. 9d. to 38s. ; on or before the end

MARK-LANE.—THIS DAY.
Our market was tolerably well supplied with English
Wheat thu morning, which met a free sale at the extreme
quotations of Monday last. In foreign Wheat but few
transactions took place; previous prices were, however,
maintained.

American Flour was in request at the rates of last week,
but any attempt to obtain an advance checked the sale.
Choice qualities of Barley were fully u dear, bet ordi-
nary sorts were purchased on rather easier terms.
The Oat trade was dull this morning, and rather leas
money had to be taken for any but fine fresh feed.
Beane and Peas brought the extreme quotations of Mon-
day 'mil.

SMITHFIELD HAREEM—THIS DAY.
We have rather fewer Beasts than on Monday last, and
the dead markets are very clear ; our trade to-day is there-
fore active, at as advance of fully 2d. per stone on that
day's quotations. The number of Sheep and Lambs is
rather larger, but the demand has increaxed ; for the former,
higher pnces are on the average obtained; and for the
latter, late quotations are fully maintained, with a brisk
sale. We have a cheerful trade for good Calves, but it is
exceedingly difficult to obtain better prices. From Ger-
many and Holland there are 311 Beasts, 1,300 Sheep, and
147 Calves; Scotland, 600 Beats; Norfolk and Suffolk,
2,100 ; and 160 from the northern and midland counties.
