The show of foreign stock hereto-day was limited, and
in poor condition.
Compared with-Monday last, the arrivals of beasts fresh
up this morning from our own grazing districts were on
the increase, yet the supply of that description of stock
was by no means extensive. Its quality, however, was
prime ; indeed, there were scarcely any inferior boasts in
the market. The attendance of buyers was tolerably good,
yet the beef trade was in a sluggish state, at Friday's de-
cline, in the quotations of 2d per Sibs. The highest figure
was 4s 10d per Blbs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we
received 2,000 Scots and short horns ; from other parts of
England, 600 of various breeds; and from Scotland, 300
horned and polled Scots.

For the time of the year about an average, supply of
sheep was on offer, in good condition. Ott the whole the
mutton trade was firm, at prices fully equal to those ob-
tained on this day sennight. The primest old Downs
were worth quite 5s per 81bs.

Calves—The supply of which was very limited—moved
off steadily, at full quotations, viz., from 4s 8d to 6s per
Blbs.

The pork trade was rather heavy. In prices, however,
no change took place.
