At the northern outports the arrivals hare slightly in-
creased, et they have--proved beneath the average of
some former periods. The imports from Spain and Por
tugal may be considered fairly at an end for this year.
The low prices lately obtained for tat stock in this mar-
ket have induced many of the large importers to realise
by private contract. Not a few of the Beasts and Sheep
received since Monday last have been disposed of to
country butchers without appearing here; and rather a
large number of the former have changed hands for stall-
feeding in the neighbourhood of the metropolis. Oar
market to-day was very scantily supplied with foreign
Beasts, and Calves in particular, the quality of which
was inferior. All breeds moved off slowly, at barely
last week's quotations. Very few Beasts were landed
from the Dutch steamers this morning. The arrivals of
Beasts from our grazing districts were less than those
noticed on Monday last, yet they were seasonably exten-
sive as to number, and of fair average quality. As the
attendance of buyers was tolerably good, the primestl
Scots, &c., commanded a steady sale, at fully last week's
quotations, the best Beef selling at from 4s to 4s 2d per
81bs, but all other breeds moved off slowly, at prices
barely equal to those obtained on this day se'nnight.
At the close of the market a fair clearance of the Bullock
supply had been effected. From lancolnshire, Leices-
tershire, Northamptonshire, Sic., we received about
1,800 short horns; from the eastern, western, and mid-
land districts, 400 Scots. Herefords, runts, Devons, &c.;
from other parts of England, 600 of various breeds.
The remainder of the Bullock supply was derived from
abroad and the neighbourhood of the metropolis. With
all breeds of. Sheep we were very scantily supplied, the
numbers being smaller than on any previous market day
dining the whole of the present year. Prime Down
breeds commanded a steady trade at, in some instances,
an advance in the quotations paid on Monday last of 2d
per 81bs, they ruling from 45 10d to 55 per Sibs. In all
otter breeds of Sheep comparatively little business was
doing, at last week's prices. There was rather more
inquiry for the best Calves, at a tad more money ;
otherwise the Veal trade was in a very sluggish state
The number of Pigs was small; yet the Pork trade was
tar from active, at late rates. There were about 100 on
offer from Ireland.

Since our last report the arrivals of all kinds of coon.
Lry-killed Meat for these markets have been large, even
the time of year considered, and of excellent quality.
The supply received from the provinces has amounted
to about 820 carcases of Beef, 2,800 ditto of Mutton, 680
ditto of Veal, and 4,700 ditto of Pork. The supplies
on offer slaughtered in the metropolis have been large,
hence the general demand has ruled heavy, and, in
some instance, prices have bad a downward tendency.
About 800 carcases of foreign Meat, killed in London,
have been disposed of. From Hur, two baskets
of Mutton, two ditto of Pork, and twenty five ditto of
Beet have come to hand.

WOOL.

The imports of Wool into London last week were corn-
posed of 76 bales from Ilamburgh, 850 ditto from Algoa
Bay, 300 ditto from the Cape, and 41 ditto from Mega-
dore. Up to the present time the public sales have gone
off tolerably well. In almost every instance the previous
sales' prices have been supported, and most of the parcels
offered have found Euyers. The auctions will close this
week. Privately the demand is in a sluggish state, at
about stationary prices.
TALLOW.

Letters have reached us from St. Petersburgh, stating
that about 2,000 casks of Tallow had been disposed of
at from 130 to 132 roubles. About 500 casks had been
done tor August delivery, at 115 roubles all down. It
was expected that a very limited quantity of Tallow
would be left over till next year. Our market to-day is
rather heavy for moat kinds Of Tallow, bath on the apt
