CATTLE: The number of beasts is smaller; tne quality
of the supply has, however, improved. The favourable
weather causes an active trade, and some of the choicest
kinds make rather more money. There are a few more
sheep than on Monday last ; the demand is, however,
good, and the prices of that day are fully maintained.
Calves are selling about the same as on Friday. From
Germany and Holland there are 1,730 beasts, 2,210 sheep,
and 184 calves, Spain 60 beasts ; Northern and Midland
Counties, 1,800; and 700 from Ireland.
