well fed, and will no doubt die well. Considering the prices o
tained, it is by no means improbable that similarimporte will take
place during the present year to some extent. From Hamburg's
Rotterdam, and Scheidam, about 100 Oxen and Cows were on offer
but which moved,off slowly, at barely late rates. For the time of year,
the receipts of home-fed beasts, fresh up this morning, wee tolerably
good, and of excellent quality—the actual weight appearing to in,
crease every week. On the whole, the beef trade was inactive, yet
the quotations obtained en this day se'enight were pretty goneragy
supported, the primest lots producing 4s 2d per 81bs. The drovAS
irom Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire consisted oir
about 1,800 Scots, home bre4s, and short horns; from the
Western and Midland districts, 600 Devons, Herefords.
Runts, &c. ; from other parts of England, 200 of 'various
breeds ; and from &Maud, 300 horned and polled Sects.
The supply of Sheep was again somewhat os the increase, and of
excellent weight. Although the Mutton trade was not quite so
active as on Monday last, prime old Downs moved off steadily, at
full prices ; but most other kinds were a slow inquiry. At the close of
the market a fair clearance was effected. About 300 Sheep came to
han I from Scotland. From the Isle of Wight 185 Lambs were re-
ceived per railway while the receipts from Essex, Rent, Sussex,
Hampshire, &c., were liberal. The very finest Down qualities sup-
ported with difficulty last week's figures, all other kinds being a
mere drug. Calvcs and rigs, the supply of whirls was miderate,
moved off :I,wly at b roily station,ry prices.

BOROUGH BOP martswr.
Notwithstanding the supply of really flue flops on offer is small.
the demand has become exceedingly inactive, at late rates. In the
middling and Jnferior kinds, several large parcels of which are pressing
on the market, very little is doing, and the quotations have, in some
instances, a downward tendency.
BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.
The arrivals of Potatoes from Scotland and most parts of England
have been tolerably good since this day se'nnight, and of fair average
quality. Selected parcels are in steady request at late currencies,
but all other kinds are a mere drag, and may be purchased ou easier
terms.
