CATTLE, Ste.—SMITIIFIELD, Teto o'Cloe7;.—The
supplv of Beasts is again large, but the weather being elld
'addend markets clear, the demand is extensive. Prices
continue high, 4s Sd. being obtained in acme inettnees for
choicest quslities. There are about 140 from Holland, 100
front Scodand, 180 Mach Cows, and the remainder front se-
veral parts of the country. The num:At of Sheep and Lambs
is large; for the forme., trade is brisk at about Munday'ft
prices, but for the latter there is a very small demand. 1 nis
cold weather is exceedingly unfavourable for the Lamb trade,
and the choicest qualiti, s are with difficulty disposed of at
a reduction of fully 6d. per 8:b. on but Fri, ay's quotations.
Calves arc rather more plentiful, and trade very dull, at re-
duced prices. We Vase from llolland about 100 Sheep arid
20 Calves. The weather being favourable, trade for rigs is
brisk at full prices.

B•INET GREAT Fain, APRIL 7.—Yetterday this fair,
which is continued for three days, commenced early in the
morning, with a very large show of stock of all kinds, and
the trade very brisk, particularly for Cows and Calves, which
made prices varying from 18 to T 2 guineas per Cow, in full
milk, including their small Calf. Beasts for srnaine were
also bought up quickly, at 10 to 15 guineas per head ; and
Beasts fit far the butcher made from 3s. 10d. to 4s. 6.1. per
stone of 81h. In the Horse fair there-were plenty of buyers
(or good young rant Morass, which made high prices, parti-
culariv those seitabk for the brewers and London work
generllly. One dealer sold some for 60 guineas a horse ; and
many others, suitable for farming purposes,' were sold at 40
guineas each; but all horses of en inferior description were
a very dull trade. Some goad hones for the saddle sold well,
nt high prices. Sheep and Pigs were but little sought aft, r,
although offered at lower prices. A good business was dons
generally, but plenty of stock left for the remaining two days'
fair.
BEVISIMET, Arno. 7.—There was a short show of stork,
ad of which was sold at the following prices:—Beef, tio.
to 7s. per stone. Mutton, 7d. to 74d. per lb.

Dakar, Arita, 6.—There was barely an average supply
of Beasts, and of a moderate quality ; Stoup, • good supply,
both in quantity and quality; fat Calves were plentiful.
Beef mule from to 6d.; Mutton (in the wool), ltd. to
7d.; ditto (out of the wool), Gd. ; Veal, Gd. to Old. per lb.
Rough Fat, 4s. 041. per stone.
DONCASTER Arlin. FAlL—This annual fair fur the sale
of Cattle, Hones, &c., was held on Monday last, the sth
inst. No better illustration of the desirablerceri of altering
the holding of this fair to one particular day in the week
could be alt.r.led than the present occasion. It bas often
been a matter of regret amongst both buyer and seller that
thin fair shoold occur on the same day as Rotherham cattle
market and other equally important similargatherinos. We
feel assured the importance of not only the April, bat also
the August fair, would be promoted, were the authorities of
the town to rr solve for the future that these periodical salts
should take place the first Thursday after the sth of
April and August n speetively. The supply of stock
en the present occasion was much less than it otherwise
would have been. were it not for the fact that the cattle
market at Rotherham wan held at the sometime. Although
a thin supply, the quality of the tick exhibited was carved-
ingly good and prime rampleo of fat ri alined in most instances
r ith. r more the., 7s. rvr stone, with a brisk demand. Ir-
advent, and Cows and Calves, wetrocaree, and high rates
obtained. All sort. of groins stack were in I,:tter demand,
and having only a thin supply, these realised better prices.
The Sheep market was more extensive than usual, and nume-
rous lots of Hogs shown, sold at higher terms. he pro-
priety of bovine a ling fair on this day has often been a
matter of considerarien with many very influential and ex-
tensive Sheep-bre. den in the districtuound, end we iinder-
stand that on future fairs these gentlemen have resolved to
exhibit some strong and onperior lots, well worthy the atten-
tion of yurelmorro. We have no douht that squally
as good prie, s will be obtained here as at any other sale.
The demand for Horses weS exceedingly good, price
apparently uo consideration with superior animals.
Indeed, in several instances the prices appeared
most oxtraracarit. The attendance of London and
country bow+ si as numerous. All descriptions of
Horses, whether for hunting, hack, coaching, or carting,
were in a brisk sal... We heard of many cart Ilona' bring
sold for 601. anal 701. each, and, in one instance, 1001.
was given for a Horse which had been previously. bought
for 60... Although not equal to the inquiries, the
show of Heroes was fully as large as at former fairs.
The exhibition of entire Homes took place, u usual, on
the Lich rood oppo ate South-parade. We do not remein-
b. r to 4 aye seen a better show of Horses for light purposes.
To particularise the line symmetry and perfect form and
action of many of the sninials, would perhaps be ton invi-
