BALLIICASLOE FAIR, Oct. 4.-The prices for sheep at this
fair have been decided to-day, and such a turn have matters
taken on this, the "show day," that unless fresh supplies
come in on Monday, the regular fair day, the business in
one department of the stock-namely, breeding ewes-is
virtually concluded with the present date. At ten o'clock
this morning the Leinster breeders commenced buying up
brood ewes with on eagerness and a rapidity such as at
half-past twelve o'clock left, I car. undertake to state,
scarcely a flock of any, or even, I may venture to add, of
no pretensions at all, on the show ground. In
one brief hour and a half a perfect clearance was effected,
and, of course at an improvement in prim over those
of last year. As already noticed, a considerable falling
off was observable in the supply of brood stock in com-
parison with that of wedders, and the deficiency
in the former would appear to have induced pur-
chasers to close bargains with an anxiety almost
bordering on alarm. Every description of ewes, per-
haps more particularly middling, and even inferior, went
off- at prices, moderately speaking, averaging fully 3s. to
3s. 6d. a head in advance over last year's rates. The
breeding class having been thus summarily disposed of,
transactions in welders were proceeded with but very
slowly, and on terms of reduction of from Is. to 2s. a head
under the previous year's prices. Whatever demand there
was was confined to the higher qualities, little or no inquiry
being made fur inferior kinds. Towards the afternoon busi-
ness became more brisk and steady, but with scarcely a
shade of rise in prices worth mentioning. The subjoined
list of prices at this day's fair may best servo to put the
reader in possession of the character of the business trans-
acted. It may be right to premise that the condition of the
flocks generally appeared to be inferior to that of the stock
exhibited here last October. Mr. I'. Tootle, for 100 three
