ucly about 130 Beasts and 300 Sheep and Calves have
arrived at the northern outports from Holland. The
fresh supply
of stock for this market by sea from Ire-
land
1 been confined to 7 Oxen. From Buenos
,527 tres of preserved Beef and Mutton have
come to hand in good condition. Large additional sup-
plies are on their way hither. The arrivals of Beasts
f.rern our various grazing districts fresh up to this morn-
ing's market were moderate as to number, but of excel-
lent quality. Notwithstanding that the weather was un-
favourable for slaughtering, the Beef trade ruled toler-
ably steady, at prices about equal to those paid on this
day se'nnight. The primest Scots sold at from 3s 6d to
33 8d per Sibs, and at which a good clearance was
effected prior to the conclusion of business. From
Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received about 1,500 Scots and shorthorns; from
the western and midland counties, 700 Herefords,
Devons, Runts, &c. ; from other parts of England
400 of various breeds; and, from Scotland 300 horned
and polled Scots. With Sheep we were seasonably
Well supplied. Prime Down qualities moved off freely
at fully, but at nothing quotable beyond, last week's
currencies. All other kinds were in moderate request at
full prices. Lambs, the supply of which was good,
moved off steady at fully previous rates. The best Down
Lambs sold at 6s per 81bs. The sale for calves were
heavy, at drooping currencies. The numbers were
somewhat extensive. Pigs were a slow inquiry, but not
cheaper.

Very limited supplies of country-killed meat have
been received up to these markets in the past week;
and those on offer slaughtered in the metropolis, have
proved very moderate. Still, however, the general de-
mand has been far from active, and ate prices, owing
to the prevailing warm weather, have been with diffi-
culty supported. Only about 300 carcases of foreign
meat, chiefly veal, have appeared on sale.
