SMITHFIELD.
To-day's market was very moderately supplied with
beasts, the general quality of whili was inferior. All
kinds moved off slowly, and Monday's prices were barely
supported. However, the best Scots were worth quite 5s
per Blbs. We had a fair supply of sheep 013 offer. The
demand for them was tolerably firm, at extreme quota-
tions. There was a slight improvement in the sale for
limbs, and, in some instances, prices had an upward ten-
dency. Although the supply of calves was limited, the
veal trade was heavy, at barely the late decline in the quo-
tations. Pigs were very dull.
Mach cows sold slowly, at
chiding their 'wall calf.
