WOOL—LONDON.—The aspect of the trade for
inglish has been, tor thllee last few weeks, rather en-
couraging than otherwise, inasmuch as the demand rather
exceeded the stocks on hand. Wools cannot. it is consi-
dered, recede in price, as the holders are highly stocked,
and the farmers will not give way this side the new clip.
The foreign market remains in the same quiet state as for
some time back ; few sales to iking, but there is no
Sion on the part of the holders to give way in prices.ab
importation, as yet, is very small, and not likely to be bap
from Germany, Spain, or Russia. The stocks in the heads
of the merchants, manufacturers, and dealers, were perhaps
sever lighter.

BILADPOILD.—The spinners are doing a little move ka
buying, but, on the whole, we cannot record anything ar
preaching to activity, and ai clip-time ia at hand there eaa
be no doubt but all will buy sparingly, in the hope of getting
a supply on easier term,. Brokes and soils are in good re-
quest, owing to the small quantity making, and full prices
are realised.

Lisaos.—The demand (or English Wool this week has
been steady, and prices stationary. In foreign about an
average business has been done during the past week, at

LIVERPOOL.—The inquiry for Wool generally is still very
limited, and but for the low state of stocks, prices would
secede. The reasonable rates at which Buenos Ayres is
offered, has tempted some purchases, and we have to report
isonsiderable sale for both home consumption and fur ex-
portation to the Continent. We learn from the Customs
report that the shipment of Wool to New York consisted of
1,487 Peruvian, 17 Buenos Ayres, and 36 United States.
The imports of Wool into England during the put three
months are exactly one third less than in the corresponding
quarter of 1846. The decrease is principally from corn
exporting countries. Imports of Wool into Liverpool for
the week ending April 7. Foreign : Gibraltar, 69; Lisbon,
27; Cape of Good Hope, 4.5 bags. Total, 141 bags; pre-
viously this year, 16,065 bags. Scotch, 230; previously this
year, 2,659 bags. Irish, 71 bags; previously this year, 2,659
bags. Irish, 71 bags ; previously this year, 1,256 bags.
Easter is generally a holiday week, in
which little business is done, and we have no alteration to
report front last week.

CATTLE, 3c.—SMITHFIELD, Two o' Clock.—We
have a large increase in the supply of Beasts, and the change
of weather being unfavourable to slaughtering, our trade is
ancee.dingly heavy, at reduced prices. A few of the choicest
Beata make nearly 4s. 6d., but this price is by no
swans general. We have 391 from Holland, 200
from Scotland, 2,400 from Norfolk and Suffolk, and
the remainder front various parts of the country.
Several of the inferior descriptions remain unsold. There
me more Sheep than of late, yet they are not over-abundant
fee the time of year. The wet, mild weather, has caused a '
reunion in the trade, and, for the most part, rather lower
are submitted to. Lamb is selling rather better
an
on Friday. There are but few Calves on offer; the ...
supply, however, is quite equal to the demand : prices re-
main about the same. From Holland we have 220 Sheep
and 17 Calves. Trade is very dull for Pigs.

Banger SPRING FAIR. —This great chartered mart for
every class of Cattle concluded on Saturday, and for many
years past there has not been so varied and well.arranged
stock as was exhibited upon the recent occasion. There was
a large attendance of purehmers. both as relates to improving
and ready-hand stock for immediate purposes. The number
of cattle was upon a very liberal scale, and every class of
stock was takes off the hands of the owners with spirit,
which was not the case oa the occasion of the last autumnal
fen in September of the past year. There was • very fair
proportion of Scotch Oxen, in admirable col dition, exhibited,
which ruled at tip-up prices, viz., from 2W. to 221. per head,
and souse Cows ( with Cell beside) realise 241. to 25!. the
lot. Cows in calf made from 181. to 181. each. There was a
liberal demand for stock to be laid down for future improve-
ment, and taking the latter generally ft was highly com-
mended by both breeders and feeders. The flock samples
wee in good order, and went off readily, at from 325. to 40s.
per head, and healthy Ewes with Lamb by side were bar-
gained fur at the average price of 36e. per lot. The Pig
market was exceedingly slack, for purchasers were re-
luctant to negotiate with the salesmen in this order of stock.
There was a good sbow of Horses, both as relates to nags
and team samples, the unrity of which went off at full
prices, the former at from 30!. to 32!. per head, and the latter
from 30!. to 3.5'. Upon the whole, we do not rem, tuber so
many satisfactory bargains effected, with regard to every
dais and description of live stock at Spring Barnet Fair
as was concluded at the close of the same oa Saturday
'Bemoan.
DUBLIN, APRIL B.—The supply of Cattle and Sheep
limited, and prices not at all effected by the recent show of
fat cattle : even a middling description of Beef and Mutton
fully realising our hightst quotations of last market. From
the short supply and high prices, very few lots were bought
for Import. Beef, 7.55. to 8... per cwt. ; Hatton, 7d. to 84d.
per lb. ; Veal, 8.1. to Std. per :b., sinking offal. Lambs, 21s.
to Zia each.

BOYLII Aram F•ia.—The Green was well supplied with
stock, and the superior description met ready purchasers.
Several lots of two and three-year old Bullocks were sold
lkom 101. to 131. 50. ; good mulch Cows were in much re-
quest, and may be quoted from 101. to 151.; inferior ditto,
Sum 51. to 101. ; two-year-old heifers, from 71. to 91. ; year-
lings, from 41. to 71. There was a limited supply of Heroes ;
but scarcely any rigs.

CLONHEL MONTHLY FAlL—There was a Very good
attendance of purchasers, but fat stock was eery scarce. Fat
Cows rated from 121. to 151. ; in-calf heifers, 81. to 121. ;
strippers, 51. to 111. ; two-year-old heifers, 51. to 91. ; year-
lings, 21. to 41. Fat Sheep, 365. to 40.. Hoggets, 30.. to 42a. ;
store Pigs, 255. to 50. ; bonnie, se. to [Os. The Horse
fair was badly ended, and but few purchases were effected.

NM:AIf FAIR.—We had a small fair of Beef and Mutton
which sold at an enormously high price. Beef rated (sinking
offal) at from 6d. to 61d. per lb. Mr. John Metge, of
Athlumney, had the best lot of Bullocks and Heifers on the
Green ; he got for one Cow 261 Mutton (wedded) from 7 id.
to ftd. per lb. ; ewes, Gil. to 7d. Mr. Bryan Reilly, of Kil-
harry, got 31. es. 6d. for a lot of wedden. We had a very
Wye fair of Pip, and some of ss good quality as could be
aims at any limo or season. There were a great many sent
binno unsold. The prima ruled low, on account of some
Wight fall in the English markets. The number of Horan
in the fair•green wcre so inferior and few as not to be worth
noticing.

For Saturday's Mantas on did pap.
