BRISTOL MARCH FAIRA.—BRISTOL, MARCH S. Our
annual *gong sheep, cattle, and hoots lair took place on Saturday

fair began ieeterday, at the Bock Hal', Ballwin-street, an 4 the wool
fair this day, at the Wool Ball, Thommestreet. The horse =dunk
fair was moier.dely eupplied with fat stock, but there were a good
many store animal's whlch wild well, fresh promising thing' briaglrg
fro,, 101. to 171. Vat beef also mold well, some good Devotee reatoong
home's. to 525. per cwt. There were not many steep nor woo much
done In them, but the sales effected were at better rates. Toe horse
fair was muck a. usu.), the dealers boldlag all toe better description',
'lath they did not part with unlee• at full camper'. At the leather
fair but little budnow has been closed. but it. is expected that the re.
cent adymices will be supped. d, especially upon English butts of mid-
dling substance, chick are in abort supply and meet with a good de-
mand. AS yet but little has been done at the wool fair.

THE HOMEWARD WEST INDIA AND MEXICAN
MAILS are not expected before the 10th or 11th inst. This
arises from the fact that the steamer which is now due will
bring home the answers to the Mexican moil, despatched
from England on the 2nd January last, and the answers to
the Demerara mail, which was despatched from England on
the 17th January last. Now the Severn, which took out
the West India and Mexican mail on the 2nd January was
three days late in reaching St. Thomas; and the Avon, which
took out the West Indian mail on the 17th Janua, was a
week after her time in reaching St. Thomas. Therefore
the Mexican and Demerara mails cannot reach St. Thomas
on their return voyages to enable the steamer which is now
due to leave St. Thomas at her proper time, viz., on the
18th of last month. The Avon, which left with the out-
ward mails on the 17th January was obliged to put into
Fayal for coal, and it is feared that she arrived so late at St.
Thomas that the intercolonial steamers stationed at that
port must have started for Demerara and Jamaica without
the mails from England.
