CHlLieeivOlD Fail—At our fair yesterday (Monday)

HanTIORD FAIR, Mae 13.—The supply of cattle at this
fair today was extensive, and there was a good attendance of buyers.

were of the Suffolk breed, made 131. to 131. per head ; two-year-old
Heifer+, in-calf, 81. to 101. Very few Horses were brought in, and
chiefly of the second clam, with but litte business doing.
Irewicit Sr. °cot° tea FAIL—The quantity of stock
exhibited fell far short of last year, and the weather likewise prevented
a large attendance of breeders and greAers. As rewarded quality, the
fat stock wee not so tine and ledge as on former occasions. The trade
was dull, and little business doing, although prices had improved.
The quantity of fat dimep was limited, but those penned were very
good to quality, there being some pertinently good clipped hoggets,
which were void for slaughtertag, and which attracted considerable
attention. Prices had not improved in tide description of staCk.
In the store hogget department there were eeveral pens of
half Down and Leicester': and there were also some
goo{
Dow. and Norfolk.., but very few whole Downs. The
quantity of Ewes and Lambs was by no means large. Tho
best pens of Moneta were half Leiceeters, which told at 37a per
bead. It was considered that a fair quantity of business woe done
considering the unfavourable state of the weather; but there being no
apparent improvement in prices, made trade rule heavy on the whole.
The store beans fed tar short both in quantity and quality, compared
with post years, there being very few short-horns. Good Cows and
Calves, and in.ealved heifer., were by no means good, and little busi-
ness was doing. The Horse fair was one of the worst that has been
seen fur many years. The general result may be stated as follow. ; • •
