In to-day's market the supply of Beasts on offer was
season
ably good as to number, 'Jut very deficient in quality.
Although the arrivals of slaughtered meat in the metropolis
during the present week have been comparatively small, the
Beef trade was heavy at Monday's quotations. With Sheep
we were fairly supplied, while the demand for that descrip-
tion of stock was in a sluggish state, at barely the late
provement in value. '1 here were on offer 70 Omen and
Cows, 50 Sheep, and 31 Calves, from Holland. In Calves a
fair amount of business was doing at full prices. The Pork
trade was heavy, but without alteration in value. Milch
Cows sold slowly at from 161. to 181. 105. each, including
their small calf'.
