For the time of year to-day's market was bat mode-
_ rately_ supplied with foreign stock, the general quality of
which was by no moans first-rate; and the arrivals of
Beats from our own grazing districts, as well as from
Scotland, were somewhat limited. The rapid increase
in the demand for barrel provisions to victual the
immense number of vessels now about to sail to the
Australian colonies, and the high value of salted provi-
sions generally, had considerable influence upon the Beef
trade this morning, all breeds of Beasts commanding a
ready inquiry at an advance in the quotations of
Monday last of fully 2d per 81b, and a clearance was
speedily effected. The primest 'Scots sold at 4s per
Blbs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridge-
shire wA received 2,000 Scots, Shorthorns, &a ; from other
parts of England, 650 Herefords, Runts, Dovons, &c.,
and from Scotland 450 Horned and Polled Scots. With
Sheep we were tolerably well, but by no means exten-
sively, supplied. There was less activity in the demand
for this description of stock than on this day se'nnight,
and, in some instances, prices were a shade in favour of
buyers. However, the primest Old Downs realised 4s
per Sibs. Lambs were in full average supply, and
altivgish inqairy at late rates, viz., 4s to 5s per Sibs.
From the Isle of Wight 100 came fresh to hand. Large
numbers of Calves were brought forward, yet the whole
sold at late rates. There was rather more doing in
Pigs, but we have no change to notice in their value.
