At the outports, about 300 Beasts and 800 head of Sheep,
Lambs and Calves, have been 1 anded, chiefly from Holland,
The supply of foreign stock on offer consisted of about 220
Oxen and Cows, 689 Sheep and Lambs, and 31 Calves, in
very middling condition. From our own grazing districts
the arrivals of Beasts fresh up this morning were seasonably
extensive, and about 700 head more than on Monday last.
This increase in the supply, together with the comparatively
small attendance of country buyers, and the unfavourable
state of the weather for slaughtering, caused the beef trade
to be in a somewhat inactive state, and the quotations ruled
quite 6d per 81bs. lower than on this uay se'nnight—the
highest figure for the best sorts not exceeding 5s 4d
per 81bs, while some very useful Beef sold at 5s per
Blbs. At those rates a good clearance was effected.
From Norfolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received about
1,000 Scots. hopnebreds' and Shorthorns; from the western
and midland districts, 800 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c. ;
from other parts of England, 500 of various breeds; and from
Scotland, 300 homed and polled Scots. There was a con-
siderable increase in the number of Sheep on sale, hence the
Mutton trade was heavy, at a fall in the currencies of 4d per
Sibs., and some difficulty was experienced in effecting a
clearance. With Lambs, 80 of which were received from the
Isle of Wight, we were well supplied, while the sale for that
description of stock was very dull, at a fall in value of from
8d to is per llbs. compared with that obtained on Monday
last, the primest Down qualities selling at only 6s per 81bs.
The supply of Calves was tolerably good, and the sale was
heavy, at 2d; per 81bs. less money. In Pigs, exceedingly
little business was doing, and the rates had a downward
tendency.
