THE MARKETS.--(THIS DAY.)
NEWGATE AND LEADENHALL.
We had large arrivals of Beef from Scotland and other parts,
which caused the trade to be very shy in buying, although the
salesmen reduced their prices 2d. per stone. Of other kinds
only a small quantity were at market. Mutton, Veal, and Pork
sold well at our quotations, but Lamb was dull of sale and diffi-
cult of disposal. Mutton, 3s. 6d. to 4s. 4d. ; Beef, 3s. 4d.
to 4s. 2d.; Veal, 4s. to ss. ; Pork, 4s. to ss. ; and Lamb,
4s. 6d. to ss. per stone of 81b. All descriptions of Poultry
were in good supply ; the salesmen asked an advance upon
most kinds, which in some measure was acceded to. Tame
Rabbits, Is. to Is. 64. ; Chickens, Is. dd. to 2s. 6d. ; Large
Surrey Fowls, 3s. 6d. to ss. ; Fowls, 2s. 6d. to 3s. 6d.
Turkey Poults, 4s. to 6s. ; Leverets, 3s. to 6s. ; Goslings,
4s. to 6s. 6d. ; Ducks, Is. 6d. to 2s. 6d. ; Pigeons, sd. to
9d. each. Eggs in good demand at 4s. 6d. to 7s. 6d. per 120.
