There was a full average number of each kind of foreign
stock on offer in to-day's market. The demand ruled
heavy, at drooping prices. From our own grazing districts
the receipts of beasts fresh up this morning were somewhat
on the increase, and in fair average condition. The at-
tendance of both town and country buyers was good ; but
the increased supplies of meat on offer in Newgate and
Leadenhall induced caution in effecting purchases. The
few prime lots brought forward realised last week's cur-
rency—viz., 4s 6d per 81bs, but all other breeds were dull,
and 2d per 81bs lower than on Monday last.
The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire amounted to 2,220 short horns • from
other parts of England, 600 Herefords, runts, and Devons;
and from Scotland, 79 horned and polled Scots.

With sheep we are seasonably well supplied, and there
was a decided increase in their general weight. The primest
Downs sold slowly at last week's currency—viz., 5s 2d per.
Sibs; but all other breeds were very dull, and 2d per 81bs
lower.

Calves, the supply of which was good, sold heavily, at a
decline in price of from 6d to 8d per 81bs.
We had a slow sale for pigs, at a reduction of 2d per
81bs. The supply was good.

NEWGATE AND LEADENHALL.
Since our last report, the supplies of each kind of meat
on sale in these markets have been considerably on the
increase; nevertheless, a full average business has been
transacted, and prices have been fairly supported.

BOROUGH HOP.

As the growth continues to come down very light, the
duty has declined to 135,0001. and 140,000/. The demand
for both new and yearling hops is very active, on higher
terms. Now Weald of Kents have sold at from 175 s to
2305, and Sussex 165 s to 195 s per cwt. Several parcels
arrived from the continent last week.
