The Dutch and Holstein cattle continue to arrive in very
bad condition ; but we have received some tolerably good
sheep from Harlingen and Rotterdam, together with some
prime calves.
Since our last, 74 beasts, 24 calves, and 33 pigs have
arrived from Ireland.
The supply of foreign stock in to-day's market was large,
but in very middling condition.
From our own grazing districts, the receipts of beasts
fresh up this morning were but moderate. The primest
Scots and shorthorns moved off steadily, and in some in-
stances prices were rather higher than on Monday last ;
yet the top quotation for beef did not exceed 4s 4d per
81bs. In the value of other breeds we have no change to
notice.
The bullock arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire,
and Northamptonshire, amounted to 2,950 shorthorns ;
and from other parts of England, GOO of various breeds.
There were no fresh supplies from Scotland.
With all breeds of sheep we were but moderately sup-
plied. There was a slight improvement in the sale for
Downs and half-breds, the value of which was, in some
instances, 2d. per 81bs. higher than on this day se'nnight.
For instance, a few prime half-breds realised quite 4s 10d,
and prime old Downs 5s 2d per 81bs. Inferior breeds were
steady, and quite as dear as last week.
We had an improved sale for calves, at an advance in
the quotations of 2d per 81bs.
Pigs were in full average supply, and steady inquiry, at
full prices.

The following list includes four deaths, and involves
the disposal of church property to the value of about
1,6001. a year :

70. In the year 1823, he was presented to the office of
treasurer (Llandisilio Gogo), in St. David's, a post of

STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Manchester Guardian of Saturday.)

MANCHESTER, Oct. 28.—Throughout the present week I
our market has been much more inanimate, and the busi- I
bees effected a great deal smaller than in the previous
Week. The fact is, that transactions of last week reached
a much larger aggregate amount:than was then supposed ;
and the buyers have, therefore, fewer orders to give eut.
Cotton, except in the poorest sorts, is dearer than it was
a fortnight ago. It is the very great proportion of rub-
bish held in Liverpool that supports prices under a dimi-
nishing consumption and a tight money market. With
favourable weather we have promise of a large crop from
America. Prices were rather lower at the last dates.
Money matters were difficult ; .11 to 2 per per cent. per
month being paid for loans, and two or three failures had
occurred. The turn-outs at Preston and Wigan con-
tinue without any appearance of a settlement. At
b
''acup, all the mills (except two or three not in the
"ion) are now at a stand ; and at Burnley the general
Cessation took place last night.
NOTTINGHAM, Oct. 27.—There are many buyers here,
especially Americans, but either from a want of confi-
dence in the future, or the expectation of goods being
lower in price, they have as yet made but few pur-
chases. We have no change to report in the price of
yarn.—Nottingham Journal.
LEICESTER, Oct. 27.—Our market, after having been
two years attaining its culminating point, has, wlithin
the last fortnight, receded rapidly ; more, however, from
a fear of a great re-action in the material than from any
liacal present cause, stocks on hand beinll

THE WOOLLEN TRADE.

(From. the Leeds Mercury of Saturday.)
LEEDS, OCT. 28.—There has been no change in the
state of the woollen cloth market this week. There ap-
peared to be rather more animation in the cloth halls on
Saturday, as there was a better attendance of merchants,
and the biddings were rather free ; but they were so low
that very few of the manufacturers would accept them,
and at the close of the market it was found that very
little business had been done, and there was no im-
provement on the previous state of things. On Tuesday,
the market in both the cloth halls was exceedingly flat
and dull, the transactions were almost altogether con-
fined to a few meltons and beavers, in various coloured
mixtures. There have been, during the week, a few
buyers in the town, but their purchases are very limited,
and confined either to their immediate requirements
or anything they are able to meet with below the
market price ; hence the trade in the warehouses con-
tinues quiet and dull.
of the
Oct. 25.—We have had a repetition
?fthe same inactivity in business to-day as during the
last few weeks. There seems no disposition on the part
of the merchants to make purchases of any amount, un-
less the manufacturers consent to a reduction in prices,
Which they do not seem inclined to do until the result of
thet wool salesnowbeingheld in London shall be morefully
"'sm. The stocks in the hands of the manufacturers
are lop, many of them having been working for some
monthso past upon orders, some of which are not yet
completed. They are, therefore, unwilling to submit to
an reduction in prices likely to tempt the merchant.
