On the whole, the show of foreign stock in to-day's W''
ket was tolerably good, and in fair average condition. tel
Compared with Monday last, the supply of homel
beasts on offer, this morning, exhibited a decided fall
off in number, but not in quality. The attendance
buyers being good, and the weather more favourable 'OO
slaughtering, all kinds moved off somewhat briskly, at ,j
advance in the quotations of quite 2d per 81bs, and a lit.li
clearancelwas effected. A few very superior Scots reallo'
4s 4d per 81bs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, d ift
received 1,600 Scots and short horns ; from other pert° 0
England 800 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c. ; and fr°
Scotland, 450 horned and polled Scots.
We have to report a decline in the arrivals of sheep f
_,,4
most quarters, hence, the mutton trade was active,
prices were 2d per 81bs above those obtained on this °PA,
se'nnight. A few very superior old Downs, in the vl°-2,i
produced 5s 4d, but the general top quotation 'was suy
per Blbs. Those out of the wool realised 4s 2€l. per
without difficulty. t
0 g Lambs—the supply of which were but moderate-1y
steadily, at late rates, viz., 5s to 6s per 4lbs. From -
Isle of Wight, 175 head came fresh to hand.
The supply of calves was very moderate, whilst trn a;
mand for that description of stock was far from active,
late rates.

'WOOL. ----
English wool; the stock of which in the metropol
limited in the extreme, continues in good request at re;
full prices ; indeed, in some instances really fine p
have commanded rather more money. Foreign an d
vial samples move off slowly, owing to the high rs it(
manded by the importers. The imports into Lond( m
