The arrivals at the outports have been very small and
of secondary quality. By sea, from Ireland, 104 Oxen
and 80 Lambs have arrived for this market, in tolerably
good condition. The supply of Foreign Stock in to-
day's market was very limited; yet the demand for it
was exceedingly heavy, at drooping prices. For
the time of year, the arrivals of Beasts from our
grazing districts fresh up this morning were
again extensive, arAl of excellent quality. The
weather being somewhat unfavourable for slaughtering,
and the dead markets extensively supplit d, the Beef
trade ruled excessively heavy, at a decline in the prices
of Monday last of quite 2d per 81bs. A few very su-
perior lots found buy ers at 33 6d per Sibs, but the general
quotation for Beef did not exceed 3s 4d per Sibs. At
the close of the market a large number of Beasts were
unsold. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cam-
bridgeshire we received 1,800 Scots and Short-
horns; from the western and midland counties 600 Here-
fords, .Dovons, &c.; from other parts of England
600 of various breeds, and from Scotland 320 horned
and polled Scots. There was a further increase in the
supply of Sheep, owing to which the demand for that
kind of stock was in a very sluggish state. Prime old
Downs were mostly disposed of at last week's prices,
viz , from 4s to 4s 4d per 81bs in the wool, but all other
breeds ruled 2d per 81bs lower, at which a olearance was
not effected. Lamb' were in lair request, at from 5s 4d
to 6s 6l per 81be. From the Isle of Wight 30 head

THE STANFIELD-HALL
MURDERS.

TRIAL OF RUSH.

(THIS DAY.)

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
(FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.)

NORWICH, THREE O'CLOCK.
Mr. Baron Rolfe sat at a quarter to nine. The Cuur
was crowded.

The first witness was Point, who took Rush into
custody. lie proved finding a wet pair of boots, two
loaded double-barrelled guns; that the clock at Potash
was a quarter of an hour faster than that at Stanfield Hall;
that it took him 40 minutes to walk between the two;
that Huh made use of the remarkable expression,
"you say that the murder was committed at eight
o'clock, did not you," and that Mortar, a con-
stable, replied, " Nobody named the time." In
going from the Bridewell to Stanfield Hall Rush
asked who was it at Potash that named the time of the
murder ? In reply to Rush the witness said at that
time his impression was that it had been mentioned, but
he found subsequently that it had not.
Baron ROLFE said the witness might commit minor
discrepancies, but the prisoner's cross-examination had
led him to confirm ten thousand more important ones.
Rush said the witness had perjured himself.
Thompson, another constable, corroborated the
material portion of the above.

Mortar proved finding the cloak on the prisoner's
bed, and that he asked him interrogatively if it took
place a little after eight o'clock, did it not?
No one had named the time in his (witness's) presence.
The prisoner said he heard so. Under the mattrass he
found a dagger.
Amos, another constable, corroborated the above re.
walkable expression, and the finding the powder flasks
and a dark lantern.

Osborne, alto a constable, swore that Rush said when
arrested, and before he was told the cause, " Good God,
I hope they don't suspect me. It is a very serious
charge ; that fellow Clarke, a solicitor, has caused me
to be suspected, but Savory, the Jai, and Emily Sand-
ford can clear me. lam innocent."

Superintendent Hubberty produced the cloak and cap.
Savory, who proved the laying of the straw along
the wet soil on the day of the murder, is under ex-
amination.

Rush may commence his defence this afternoon.
I shall communicate more at six o'clock.

ANOTHER MURDER.
A fish merchant named Prince mortally stabbed a man
last night at Ditehingham, from motives of revenge.
