We were moderately supplied with each kind of foreign
stock to-day, but its general quality was inferior.
'The arrivals of beasts from our own grazing districts, as
well as from Scotland, was rather limited, and we observed
a decided falling off in their general weight and condition.
The primest Scots, from their scarcity, moved off freely,
and in some instances prices had an upward tendency, 5s
per 81bs having been realised for them ; but all other breeds
met a slow sale, at last Monday's currency.
The receipts from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cam-
bridgeshire amounted to 1,600 Scots and short-horns ' • from
other parts of England, 600 of various breeds; and from
Scotland, 230 horned and polled Soots.
There was rather an extensive supply of sheep in the
market. Prime old Downs were comparatively scarce,
and in but moderate request, on former terms. All other
breeds moved off slowly, and last week's curriencies were
barely supported—indeed, in. some instances, heavy breeds
were 2d per 81bs lower.
Lambs, the numbers of which were good, sold slowly,
but we have no change to notice in their value. The top
figura was 5s 10d rer 81bs.
We were heavily supplied. with calves, which moved off
slowly, at last week's, decline.
In pigs very little was doing, on former terms.
The arrivals of stock from Ireland by sea were 46 beasts,
108 sheep, 62 calves, and 9 pigs.
