To-day's' market was very moderately supplied with
foreign stock, and the arrivals of home-fed beasts were on
a comparatively limited scale, whilst their general quality
was inferior. The attendance of butchers being tolerably
extensive, the beef trade, notwithstanding the prevailing
mild weather, ruled somewhat active, at, in most instances,
an advance in the currencies paid on Monday last of 2d
per 8 lbs, at which amount of improvement a good clear-
ance was effected. The primest Scots sold readily at from
4s to 4s 2d per 8 lbs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire,
and Northamptonshire, we received about 1,000 short
horns ; from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire
1,200 Scots, short horns, &c. ; and from Scotland, 684
horned and polled Scots, hiefly per railway.
The numbers of sheep were by no means extensive. All
breeds, the general condition of which was good, sold freely,
at fully last Monday's currency. The best old Downs
readily produced 5s per 81bs.
Calves were in moderate supply, and steady inviry at
the extreme rates of Friday last. The best qualities of
veal were worth 4s 6d per 8 lbs.

Prime small porkers moved off freely, at full quotations ;
but large hogs were neglected.

Notwithstanding that the supplies of each kind of meat
on sale, to-day, were tolerably exclusive, the general
