BOTLBT, Much 13.—Trade dull ; best Ozen only nuking
lls. ad. per score; good, 10s. 6d.; inferior, 10s. Best
Hampshire down Wethers made be. 4d. per stone; some
large Sussex, ss. to be. 2d. ; common, 40. 4d. Fat Lambe,
225. to 245. each. Fat Calves were 6d. per score lower.

COLCHESTER ?darch 11.—There war a large show of
Sheep, principally H which were offered at a further
decline ; but there was oggete,- but wry little disposition to purchase
among the prosier*, and MIN were with difficulty effected at
a reduction of from Is. to 2s. per head upon last week's prices.
There were several lots of good fat Beasts, for which, at the
early part of the market, high prices were demanded, but
purchasers could not be found ; and before the close, to effect
sales, a reduction of fully 5 per cent. was acceded to. Fresh
and lean stock met with a heavy sale, and prices considerably
declined. Pigs were the turn cheaper.
SEIPTON FAIL—The general supply of beef cattle cm-
tinues to be of only moderate quality, which is variable in
price, according to quality, to under 6d. per lb. ; while
Scots, or first-rate heifers, are in good demand, at 6d. to
61d. per lb. The demand, though better than was antici-
pated, did not effect a clearance. A good demand continues
for sheep, which were all sold up at Bd. per lb., except some
lots of Scotch sheep, which averaged about 7d. per lb. For
calves the demand evinces a slight improvement, at an ideal
increase in the prices, especially for first-rate cattle ; of this
description few were in the market, which was furnished
with a numerous ordinary show, and those were eventually
cleared off at shout former rates. Store cattle are in good
demand at fully former rates, especially for any of a beefy
description.
Tigonvaarox FAIL—The fair was not largely supplied,
yet the stock driven in was of the very finest description ; the
choice stock fetched the best prevailing prices. The quota-
tion for fat Bullocks was from 565. to 625. per cwt.; or from
10s. to Ils. per score. The show of Sheep was remarkably
fine ; a very prime lot of 13 wethere, estimated at 231bs. the
quarter, were bought at 31. Is. 6d. a piece, or Bd. per lb.

W/NCHEATER, March 13.—A large fair of lean Bream,
with some fine Cows, Heifers, and store Calves. Trade
began rather dull, but as the morning advanced, graziers
and dealers purchased with more freedom. Some large
Oxen made from 121. to 141. each ; moderate, 91. to 101.;
small Welsh and Irish, 61. to 71. ; floe in-Calved Cows, 141.
to 171. ; Heifers, 131. to 151. ; Cow and Calf, 161. to 18/. the
two. Weaned Calves, from 25*. to 60s. each ; nearly all the
best were sold, and about one half of the inferior. The Horse
fair was lull ; many very poor animals ; the best Nag and
Catt-Horses and Colts sold at very large sums, while the
indifferent and aged lots were scarcely looked at ; some war-
ranted riding and driving, sold at from 351. to 501. each ;
moderate, 251. to 301.; cart Colts, 301. to 451. each ; good,
strong, useful farmers' Mores, 301. to 351. ; others at from
151. to 251. ; well-,hoped Colts sold quickly, as did Ponies
for pairs. The wild Foresters were numerous, 3et not many
were sold.
