day's market was also liberal. Sellin demanded esteems-

this day week. Oats in fair demand, at last week'', cur-

fair amount of business was done to day at an improvement
of Is. per qr. Barley in sheet supply, and Is. dearer. There
was a sample of new Barley in the market to-day, weighing
, which was sold at 225. ; it was grown in

0 hasoow, Ant wit 2.-The week's supplies to the Clyde are
light, consc•ing of only 1.225 barrels I ;our le,m Canada,
and 715 qrs. Oats from Ireland; but the arriv,ds at Grange-
mouth are of good amount, there being 917 qrs. Wheat,
3,999 qrs. Barley (moiety foreign, from Leith), 560 qrs.
Beans, and I,WO sacks Flour coastwise; and 3,168 gm
Wheat, 994 qrs. 13 irley, and 1,520 qrs. Oats, direct from
abroad. Since this day week an advance re Is. per boll has
been requiro:l for the few fresh Wheats offering,
and Oats have been taken at Gd. per boll more
money, and Oatmeal at Is. per load. Sack Flour
has also ben held for extreme rates; but the wea-
ther proving fine these few days, there has been
less elasticity in the trade than during last week. Indian
Cons and Barley have been inquired for, but there is scarcely
day'seitheret at mar Beans have not vied. At this
mark, whichket.as w well attended, therear was a fair sale
for fresh Wheats, as also for milling Oats, at the advance
noted above. For sack and barrel Flour full prices were re-
quired ; and Oatmeal brought Is. to Is. 6,1 per I and over the
rates of last Wednesday. Barley was scarce',, and d . The

HOPS.—BoRouGn MARKET.—:kirsars. Pattenden
and Smith report that the demand continues steady at
the following quotations. The accounts from the plantations
an. more unfavourable this morning; the coldness of the
nights is much against tke Hops fruiting well. Duty,

FARNHAM, August 3.—Our Hops have not made the pro-
gress during the last week that we had anticipated; the high
winds have icjured the bine to some extent, but nevertheless
they are fast coming into burr, which, in sheltered situations,
appears to be very thick ; and, should we get hot weather
during the present month, many of the planters' anticipa-
tions will be fully realised by an abundant produce. Duty
estimated for the district, from 10,0001. to 12,0001.
W0150221E11. August 2.—The wind and rain of tart week
have made the Hope turn up their loaves and look sickly.
Other appearances discourage the expectation of so large a
Crop as was anticipated. Trade is dull, with literally nothing
doing.

WOOL.—FORT-WILLIAM.—Flom 4,000 to 5,000
stones of black-faced Wool were sold, at from 4L to 4s. 6d.
per stone. Other small lots went at even a lower figure. We
Lave heard of a few sales of Cheviot Wool throughout .he
Highlands since the date of our fair, but none at higher
pieta than then prevailed.
OLINDOVAN FAIL—The samples shown on this occasion
were of exc.llent quality. The exposers stood firm to the
last year's rate., ~z , 14s. 6d. the double stone of 481 b., con-
sisting of one stone of white and another of laid. The buyers
offered lie 6d.; no compromise could be effected, and of
course no sales took plate.

CATTLE, &c.—EWITIIPIELD, Two o'Clack.—The
supply is large; hut trade in the dead markets having im-
proved since Moaday, buyers are more plentiful ; yet/ we
cannot quote any advance on that day's quotations. The
number of Sheep and Lambs is about an average; the
demand for best qualities has increased, but prices have not
advanced much. Ewes and middling Sheep are very un-
saleable. There are eosin a great many Cole*. on offer,
trade for them is very dull, at lower rates. From Holland
we have 201 Beasts, 1,580 Sheep, and 406 Calves; 54 Beasts
from Portugal ; 8 trona Spain ; 15 from France; 300 from
Scotland; and 142 milch Cows from the Home Counties.

DEM/T.—There was a large and plentiful supply of fat
stock of every description ; the attendan
ce el purchawn was
considerably large, but were apparently slack in making
purchases; the best things were readily disposed of at high
pric, I, while some of the middling sorts were left on hand
amid. The sheep pens were well filled ; whether Sheep
were in good demand, but ewe Sheep were not so ; Lambe
were plentiful; there were many good fat Pig., but the
weather being against the Pork trade, it was fist. Beef
made sd. to 6d. Mutton, 611. to 7d. Lamb, 6d. to 7d.
Veal, 6d. is 6d. per lb. Pigs, 9s. to 9s. 6d. per score.
LINTON FAIR.—Not a third of the usual quantity of
Sheep, or any other description of stock were shown ; and the
trade was confined entire ly to the better descriptions of flock
Lambs and keeping Sheep, at prices varying from 20.. to 235.
for wether Lambs, and from 255. to 28s. for the Ewes.
COWLINOE Fata.—But little business was done except for
• few choice lots of home-grown Lambe, at 255. to 30e. for
halt-bred E wee, and 20s. to 233. for Wethers.

Nawanx FAIR, August 2.—There was a very bad show
of Horses, and anything decentlin either breed or condi- 1,
tion was quickly taken oft at et.ff prices. the sty wof lire ,
Beasts was also thin, eau prices firm, at late rates. There ,
was a better show of Sheep ; but the demand by the graziers ,
WM brisk, and they vont off readily. On the whole, a small ,
show of stock, and prices firm.
Paul MET FAI,R, August 2.—We have had but a small
'apply of store Beast, and they sold freely at good prices,
—rather higher than was expected. The same my be said
is regard to Sheep. Lamle' were extremely scarce and
dear. We had but a moderate supply of fat Besets and
Sheep, and they were soon taken up. Idutton, 60. to 6d.
per lb. Beef, 61. 3d. to 9d. per stone.
BETTORD LAMB FAlL—This recently-established fair,
and whien Teed', increases in importance, was held on the
usual plan on Thursday, the 27th ult., and as its original
promoters intended that it should be principally for the sale
of Lambs, we msy observe that a large quantity was penned,
and, there being plenty of buyers present, a tolerably brisk
sale took place, at prices varying from 20s. to 245. per head,
at which moat of those offered were disposed of. A moderate
sprinkling of fat Cattle was also exhibited, and these
realised from 6s. 9d. to 71. per stone. The show of fat Sheep
was not large, hut there were several lots of prime quality
exhibited, and these obtained from 35e. to 425. per head. A
fair clearance of all these was ultirmely made. The show of
Norms was extremely meagre, and these not of first-rat,
et even of middling qualities, and those sold realised prices
1* proportion.
BDOBOROL August 2.—The Sheep and Lamb market
was largely supplied ; demand limited, which caused miles to
be slowly effected, eons, fluently prices had a downward
tendency; best aged Wedders barely reached 64d. • middling
qualities, 61d. to 6d.; Inferior, sd. per pound, sinking offal ,
a good many Sheep turned away unsold. Lambs were
plentiful ; prices about Is. 'shred lower compared with last
week; a good many Lambe were also left unsold. The
Cattle market was by no mesns,largely supplied ; notwith-
standing, the market was extremely dull, and prices are
still looking down ; best quality, 7s. 4d. ; middling, 6s. ed.
to 7s. ,• inferior, 6s. to 61. 6d, per Dutch atone, sinking offal ;
a good many Cattle turned out unsold.
