COLCHESTRA, May 6.-There wee an abundances of
stock at market, and some extensive sales took place bs
sheep, as lower prices were asked. In consequence of the
dull state of the market, at Smithfield, our fat beasts and'
fat sheep did not realise former rates by sixpence per stone
of 81be, and • still further decline is anticipated. Loam
beast' were rather more in request, and the turn dearer.
Mitch cows keep up in value. Fresh beasts were net quite
so brisk in sale, and were offered at rather lem moat%
Pigs were not quite so free in sale, but we ma quite no par
tieular alteration in prices. Sucking calves were plentstol,
and considerably cheaper-Supply : sheep and lambs,
5,740 ' beasts, 334; pigs, 217; calves, 48 ; horses, 35.
„
s.:OCIRRYOUTR FAta.-Thers was a large show of cattle,
but the greater portion were of an inferior description. Toe
greatest demand was for fresh geld cows, nearly fat, which
changed hands rapidly at high prices. Pat was not much tea
demand, and lew-cenditioned cattle were • drug in the
market.
CULLOMPTON FAIL-The supply of stock of all descrip-
tions was immense, but there was no corresponding de-
mand, and the high figures asked at the commencement of
the fair had to be considerably reduced before sales couldies
offered.
DEBBY FAIR was • very unimportant one. There was a
fair sprinkling of snitching Cows, &c , .1. ids commanded,
for what business was done, good prices. Sheep were not
pleatilul ; and of Horses there was no show worth mention
tag. We should think but very little money changed hands.
OAINShORovOII FAIR.-The farmers experienced great
difficulty in disposing of their stock. For the beat Horses
there was no demand whatever, although buyers are raid to
be in the northern counties purchasing Horses for the French
cavalry. Draught Horses were much in demand, and gene-
rally sold well. Cattle was difficult to dispose of, on account
of the lateness of the pasture..
leswice MAT FAIR -Owing to the very high prime
demanded very tette business was done at first ; but, at this
end of the d.y, the greater part had exchanged hands.
There was a large supply of fat Beasts in excellent condition,
the prices varying from 64. 9d. to 7s. 6.1. per stone. The lean
Beasts were of much better quality than usual, but met
rather dull sale. Helmets were small, but in good condi-
tion ; for the best quality as mush as 10s. per stone was de-
mended, and in some instances given. Towards the after-
noon a reduction of 6.1. a stone was submitted to, and atthat
price many purchases were made.
LANCASTER FAIR.-The show of Cattle was larger thaw
common. Loan Cattle were rather cheaper, bat Calves and
some other descriptions met with a ready sale.
NORWICIc, May 6.-Our market exhibited a large show
of store Cattle of all kinds ; buyers being scarce, little busi-
ness was transacted, and the salts made were at lower prime.
Fat Beams an immense store ; trade dull, at from is. to
7s. 61. per st„ of 141b5., and not Witold. The pens were
well filled; linnets of all kinds were a dull sale, as there
were no buyer compared with the numbers penned, en that
it was quite imps Pilo to make a clearance. Fat Sheep,
naked, 84. to 8.. 61 per stone of 141b5., without a clearance.
In store P.gs no: much doing. Fat Pork from 6s. 6d. to 7s.
per stone.
STOCKPORT FAIR.-The supply of Cows was far more
limited than we anticipated ; and, as regards good mach.
Cows, was scarcely proportionate to the demand. As a
necessary consequence, dealers were firm, and prices high.
The Horse fair was unusually well supplied, both in quantity
end quality, andpurchasee were readily effected on moderate
terms.
EDZELL.-MAT TRTST.-There was a fine show of Sheep,
which met • dull sale ; and • good number of lots left the
muir unsold. Hogs brought from 101. to 151. Eget,
and Lambs, from 141. to 211. ; and black-faced
hill Wedders, from 171. to 231. per score. Fat Sheep
brought from 6.1. to 7d. per lb., to sink the GILL
The best lot of gran.-fired Wedders in the market went
off at 381 per score. Prices were rather lower than ex-
pected, but the storemasters appeared satisfied with the rate,
had the buyers been more numerous. The number of rattle
on oiler was under an average, but the supply exceed* d the
demand, and some lots left the market without an offer being
made for them. One.yeer-old Stots and Queys hr:ught from
41. to 71. 10s.; two-year-olds, Irons 81. to 161. 10e.; and
three-year-olds, from 101. to 161. The best fat did not
exceed Bs., while ordinary went off at 7s. to 71. 6d. per
Dutch stone, to sink the offal. Farrow Cow., and
qua -s for grass, were • stiff sale, at 6s. to 6s. 6d. per
stone of their estimated weight when tat. The market Was
altogether a stiff one ; and prim' a shade lower.
IRVINE MAT Fata.-This fair was well attended, ha'
a large show of &sod stock, and prices were consiorred blab.
Milk tows sold from 91. to 161., the average fur good
cows b. jog above 121. Queys in calf were also in good de-
mand ; and a lot of farrow cows sold at above 81. each. The
price in general for young *arrow cows wee fully 6s. per
24ib. There was eh,. • good demand for two year-old yell
Vier.
MUTIKEROLEN BELTAND FAIR.-At tbi
the demand was dub, and het few soles w,
horses brought prices ranging, according
201. to 401. Mileh cows brought from
ground was not cleared till late in the
the want of purchasers.
