HOPS.—WORCESTER, April 12.—Our market has
assumed a much firmer aspect the last ten days. Prices of
fine 1846 are advanced 3s. to 40., with a very limited supply,
several planters having withdrawn their samples from the
market, owing to the unfavourable appearance of many of
the roots, which have suffered greatly from some cause, and
many of them are dead. Oar district plantation is being
greatly reduced.

CATTLE, &c.—FACETER, April 12.—There was a
good supply of fat Bullocks; a very-large supply of butchcn'
Calves, but a rather short one of Sheep. Of store cattle the
supply was not large, nor were these (with few exceptions)
by any means the bat lot of Heifers we have seen. Indeed,
there were parties in the market looking out for good things
of thiskind,but were unable to nit themselves. With re-
spect to business, the fat Bullocks were on fair sale, but rates
equal to those of the preceding week were not to be obtained,
and the quotations must be stated at from 60e. to 565. per
cwt., or from 9s. to 10a. per score. Butchers' Calves on
good sale, at from 4d. to 6d. per lb. Quotations for fat
Sheep were from 615. to 745. per lb. la store Sheep little
doing. A lot of stxtesa small and mixed Sheep, which were
bought by Messrs. Stone and Trapnell, at 275. a-piece. Of
couples there were many lots, and among these a few Downs,
I but holdout' in this way was very dull; the quotations may
be stated at from 38e. to 24 guineas per couple. There was
a small supply of fat Lambe, at front 20s. 6d. to 22e. each, or
from 74d. to Bid. per lb. For fat Bullocks, Heifers, and
Calves, and barren Heifers, the quotation must be stated at
from 9!. to 141., or 41e. to 48s. per cwt., or Is. 3d. to Bs. 6d.
per score.

lumar, April 12-The quantity of Sheep penned
amounted to nearly twenty thousand ; the chief part South-
downs ; nearly all were soon sold. Haltbred wethers at

LEEDS, April 12.-There was a very short supply of both
Beasts and Sheep at market this morning, and, in conse-
quence, nearly all the animals were sold early. Prices were
firm, but it can scarcely be said that improved rates were
realised, ss the butchers determinedly resisted any advance.
NEWCASTLE, April 11.-The supply of fat Beasts pre-
sented for sale here this morning has been unprecedented],
large, and of a very superior quality, including a lot of
Kyloes from Elgin, Morayshire, by sea; also a large supply
of Sheep, quality middling. The number of fat Beasts that
have arrived into this town by land and water since this day
se'nnight have been 828 head, being the same number that
arrived in the corresponding period of 1847. There were
760 bead of fat Beasts for gale here to-day, the demand for
which was excessively slow at the commencement, and ado
termination on the part of the buyers to have them at lower
rates was manifest ; yet Hellen of the very but quality made
7s. per et., u, in fact, there were some bought by weight at
that prices; but, with this exeeption, ell other kinds receded
from 3d. to 6d. per stone on the rates of last week. The
extraordinary number on offer caused sales to be effected
without any degree of animation throughout the day, yet a
good clearance was effected. The supply of Sheep comprised
about 4,000 head. The Mutton undo was in a sluggish state
during the day, and prices had a downward movement; at a
late hour part remained unsold. The Pork trade was more
animated than for some weeks put ; part bunnies was done
last night by the south dealers; the store kinds never sold so
high at any former period. Prices: Beast-Heifers of the
bat quality, 7s. ; middling, 6s. 64. ; Steers, of the best qua-
lity, 6e. 6d. to 6s. 9d. ,• 6e. 3d.; inferior, 6e. 64. to
