SMITHFIELD.

The supply of beasts on sale here to-day was but mode-
rate. Most breeds moved off slowly ; but we have no
change to notice in prices. We were fairly supplied with
sheep, the time of year considered. The mutton trade
ruled dull at Monday's currency. Very few calves were
on offer, and they changed hands at high rates, the firmest
veal being worth 6s. per 81bs. There was only a limited
inquiry for pigs, at late rates. Mulch cows were dull in
vale at from 141. to 191. each, including their, small calf.

here. Two cargoes at St. Michael, and one from Seville,
sold by Keeling and Hunt at public sale, 'went at an ad-

HAYMARKET THEATRE.—The morning performances of
the excellent pantomime of "Little Ro.peep,,, have
been greatly attractive at this theatre, while the hun-
dreds of young children who have attended to witness
the true story of the little shepherdess and her tail-less
flock has not been the least interesting object of these
representations, another of which is announced for to-
morrow morning, and also on Saturday week, the 27th
inst. The attendance at this theatre at the evening per-
formances is on every occasion full and fashionable. The
favourite comedies that precede the pantomime, in which
Mr. Buckstone 'sustains a principal character, give the
greatest satisfaction. On Monday next, that genuine
actor, Mr. Compton, will make his first appearance in
Paul Pry, while on Tuesday next, at the request of many
fmnilies, another juvenile night will be
given, when the
pantomime will conclude at ten o'clock, Mr. Buckstone,
by desire, commlhcing the entertainments at seven, in
