The supply of Beasts ou offer here was moderate as to
number, and very deficient in quality. The primest
Scots, Devons, &c., sold readily, at prices fully equal to
those obtained on Monday, but the inferior kinds of
Beef were a mere drug, though we cannot call them
cheaper. There were in the market 22 Oxen from
Spain, 362 Oxen and Cows, 1,510 Sheep and Lambs,
and 248 Calves from Holland and Germany.
With Sheep we were but moderately supplied, while
the Mutton trade was firm, and late rates were steadily
supported. The number of Lambs was good, yet the
sale for that stock was somewhat active, at very full
prices. Notwithstanding the supply of Calves was great,
the Veal trade was firm at an aovance in the quotations
of from 2d to 4d per Sibs. Pigs moved off slowly, at
about stationary prices. Mulch Cows were very dull, at
from 16/ to 18/ each, including their small Calf.

Very favourable accounts having been received from
the plantations this week, the demand here for all kinds
of Hops—the show of which is good—rules heavy, and,
in some instances, a slight decline has been submitted
