To-day's market was well supplied with foreign stock,
in, for the most part, fair average condition. Good clear-
ances was effected at very full prices.
On the whole, the supply of home-fed beasts was season-
ably good, whilst its general condition was first-rate The
attendance of both town and country butchers was exten-
sive, and the demand for all breeds ruled somewhat active.
In some instances, the very primest Scots were the turn
dearer than on Monday last, 4s. Bd. per 81bs. having been
obtained for them. She value of short-horns, &c., was
freely supported.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 2,403 Scots and short-horns ; from other parts of
England, 500 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c.; and from
Scotland, 300 horned and polled Scots.
For the time of year, the numbers of sheep were very
limited. The sale for all breeds was brisk, at an advance
in the currencies of 2d. per 813 s. The best old Downs
realised 4s. 10d. per 81bs. without difficulty.
We had an improved inquiry for lambs, the prices of
which were from td. to 4d. per 81bs. higher than on this
day se'nnight. Down lambs sold at from Gs. to Os. 4d. per
Sibs.
Calves, the supply of which was tolerably good, sold
readily at full quotations—viz., from 4s to 5s per 81bs.
There was a moderate sale for pigs on former terms.

Per 81bs to sink the offals.
