CATTLE, &c.
COLCHESTER, DEC. 19.—The supply of both Beasts
and Sheep was short, and the trade brisk at last We, k's rater.
Pigs were limited in supply, and last week's price* were fully
maintained.
Nonwtot, DEC. 19.—Our market still continues
very dull for all store cattle, for the present there are no sales
worth notice. This day was our Christmas show for fat
Beast,, these offered were of superior quality, but there was
a great falling off as to Eumliers —the trade was very t
a dull
and but little disposition shown to purchase the larges
over fat Beasts. The pens were badly filled, next to nothing
was doing in the sale of either Ileggetts or keeping Sheep.
Fat Sheep, ies. to Rs. Gd. per stone. In store l'igs and fat pork
there is no alteration worth notice.
PERTH ANDREW'S MASS MARKET.—This market
was held on Friday. In the How market the display of
draught animals was fully better in quality to thaALIM t exhibite
ere
d
fur a considerable time past, and, cons•ilering the SCI, th
was a pis tty brisk demand. Prices were conridered above
average. For the last Horses, from 40!. wan obtained,
and we know of two cases where 47/, was given for a Horse,
and 501. fur a mare. be latter was allowed to be the finest
animal in the market. For good working Beasts from 201. to
251. may be quoted as the general run in price. Inferior
animals, of which there was not the usual proportion, varied
accorling to quality. In the cattle market there
had
was
but an indifferent display, with a lack of buyers, which
an effect upon the prices. The average for fat beasts may be
taken at is Gd. per Dutch stone, risking the offal ; sun
were sold am low figurs which has not been wit.
neared for good Beef for many markets past. Idlich Cows,
of which there was a sarry appearance, were offered at front
Gl. to 91., according to quality, but there were few or no
buyers.
