The show of foreign stock in to-day's market was mode-
rate. Amongst it were 204 oxen from Spain, out of 244
originally shipped, 40 having been thrown overboard in a
gale of wind.

With English and Scotch beasts we were fairly supplied
for the time of year, though there Was a considerable fall-
ing off in the former compared with Monday last. The
general quality of all breeds was good, but the beef trade
ruled heavy, at barely last week's currency. The extremo
value of the best Scots was 4s 10d per Blbs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we
received 2,000 Scots and short horns ; from other parts of
England 400 of various breeds ; and from Scotland 360
horned and polled Scots, chiefly per railway.
Thero was a falling off in the supply of sheep, and the
general weight and condition of most breeds were inferior.
The mutton trade was in a very depressed state, at a
decline in the quotations of 2d per 81bs. The top price of
the best old Downs,• in the wool, was 4s 10d—out of the
wool, 4s 4d per Sibs.

We had a moderate show of lambs, which sold slowly, a!
from 5s 2d to 6s 6d per Blbs.

Very few calves were in the market ; whilst the yea.
;rade ruled steady, at. late rates.

The pork trade was very dull, at last week's quotations,
From Ireland, by sea, last week, we received 91 beasts.
