Irswica CATTLE MARKET, DEC. s.—With the ex'
ception of rather a better supply of store beasts, the
market was thin, being very few fat beasts or sheep.
Trade was dull, and very few things changed hands.
WOODBRIDGE, DEC. 6.—The supply this day of wheat
was more plentiful than of late; dry parcels sold to mil-
lers is per quarter over last week's rates. Fine malting
barley recovered what it lost last week, but no improve'
went in the middling qualities.
STOWMARKET, DEC. 7.—Our attendance was AS usual,
but we did not consider the supply of corn so large as
on past weeks, the market for which was extremely dull,
unless for dry samples, and even such with difficulty
supported late prices. No alteration in the best dry
bright barley, but the middling sorts met a dull sale, 0s
did beans and peas, at rather lower prices.
RUTIIiN, DEC. 4.—A tolerably fair attendance, but
business slow. A material difference in the prices asked
and those offered. Tho continued fall in the London
markets has made purchasers here unwilling to do bust-
ness to any extent ; Wheat, 17s 6d ; barley, 6d
to is 6d; oats, 6s to 7s per hobbet.
MOLD, DEC. 6.—A slack market to-day, at reduced
prices, millers and dealers buying very cautiously at the
figures quoted. Wheat, 17s to 17s 6cl; barley, goo('
quality, lls; oats, varying from 5s 3d to 7s per hobbet.
INVERNESS, DEC. s.—The business done to-day WO
not large, farmers generally bolding out for better
prices, and the bakers and others anticipating a further
decline of prices. Barley may be quoted lower, and,
perhaps, even our prices are high. Little of last year's
oats being now offered, we need not longer retain thou
in our table.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A Dreadful Enlargemen4. .- of
the Knee, Cured by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.
Abraham Banks, an elderly man living near the DI
Creek, South Australia, had such a painful affection
and enlargement of the knee, that he diapaired of ever
recovering the use of his limb, the numerous remedies that
he made trial of failing to banish or even to mitigate the
disease. In this suffering condition he was advised £,4),
try Holloway's Ointment and Pills, and he commenced
a regular application of them, which in a short tiro°
effected a complete cure. The Adelaide Observer of the
25th March, 1848, publishes this as one among the mall
astonishing cures effected, in South Australia, by 016:

TESTIMONIAL TO THE MEMORY OF THE LAI
DUCHESS COUNTESS OF SUTHERLAND.—At a rear'
meeting held at Golspie by a few of the leading influell-
tial sheep-farmers of Sutherland, it was resolved to raise
a largo sum, by public subscription, among the respect•
able tenantry of the county, for the erection of a moil:,
ment to perpetuate the memory of the late Dooke-,,,
Countess, who died about ten years ago. Considerleb
the high estimation in which the deceased noble Jod
was held during a long and eventful life, and the great
benefits she conferred upon the steck-farmers of her
estates, we have no doubt that the subscriptions will be
on a sufficiently munificent scale to carry out the je;
tentions and wishes of the contributors.—.Ross-shir

beans, and peas, were without alteration in value. There
was a good general demand for Indian corn; the best
yellow corn was fully as high as on Tuesday, but for
white a swall abatement was submitted to in sales
ex ship.

DARLINGTON, DEC.. 4.—The supply of grain was good,
sales slow. Wheat, 11s Gd to 14s 6d; oats, 4s 4d to
6s 6d; beans, lOs to 1 ls; barley, 8s to 8s 3d per boll.
EXETER, DEC. 3.—Cattle—A small supply of stock,
in consequence of the approaching fair on Wednesday.
Prices remain nearly stationary. Fat beef 8s to 9s per
score ; cows and calves, 91 to 91 13s each ; barreners,
4s Gd to 5s per score ; butchers' calves, sid to 6d per lb;
hest fat wether sheep, 5d to 54d per lb. ; ewes, 5d per
lb. ; sheep scarce. The quotation for pigs rather firmer.
Pork Carcases—rather a short supply, which sold at
from 7s to 8s per score. The pannier market remains
nearly at the same figure as last week. Corn Exchange
—Old wheat, is 6d per bushel ; prime, warranted new
samples, 6s 9d, and in a few instances 7s ; very fine
French and Belgian white wheat, 601 b. to the bushel,
55s per qr. (delivered at the quay) ; barley, 43 per
bushel ; new oats 2s to 2s 4d per bushel ; old Irish oats
were offering at 2s 6d ; fine flour 39s to 41s per sack
of 2801bs.
TOTNES GREAT MARKET, DEC. s.—We had an are-
rage supply, with a small demand. Prices had a down-
ward tendency for every description of farm produce.
Fat beef—Superior Christmas bullocks, 56s to 603 per
cwt. ; good average quality, 48s to 52s Gd ditto ; ordi-
nary half-fed cows and steers, 38s to 42s ditto ; cows
and calves, much lower, 46s to 505 ditto ; store stock,
28s to 32s ditto. Fat sheep—Ewes, slid to 5d per lb. ;

ditto ; oats 5s to 7s 6d ditto; potatoes, 3s to 10s per bag

(varies very much in quality), from 2/10s to 4110 s per
ton ; reed, 6d to 7d per nitch; litter from 212 s to 21105
per ton. We never knew agricultural produce vary so
much in quality as it does this season.
NEWBURY, DEC. 7.—The quantity of Wheat today
in offer is a fair average for the time of year. The late
rains have much affected the condition of the bulk of the
supply. The finest selected lots sold readily, at fully
the rates of last week, while other sorts were very dif-
ficult to sell even at a reduction of is to 2s per quarter,
a large quantity being left unsold. Barley, of which we
had a good supply, sold slowly at late rates. Beans and
Peas, with a moderate supply, sold very slowly at un-
altered rates. Oats, of which we had a large supply,
were almost unsaleable, although offering at a reduction
of Is to 2s per quarter. Average:-1,105 qrs Wheat"
47s llid; 805 qrs Barley, 31s 81-d.
TAVISTOCK FAIR, DEC. 6.—The number of cattle
driven in to-day was quite equal to former Deeember
fairs, but in consequence of the unfavourable summer
fattening, the quality was below the general standard.
Graziers demanded higher rates for the best fed Christ-
mas bullocks, which, in some few instances, were realised,
but the bulk met with but a dull sale, at scarcely former
prices, leaving very many unsold at the close—from 42s
to 465, being the general price, to 56s for the highest
fed; cows and calves in fair supply without much in-
quiry; sheep, very numerous, at from 5d per lb to 6d for
the very best, which only could find customers. The
sale was, on the whole, dull, unless for selected lots.
NEWTON, DEC. 6.—Beef, 6d to bid; veal, 50;
mutton, 6d to 61d; pork, Gd to 611:1 per Ib; dead car-
cases, 8s 6d per score; fowls, 3s per couple; ducks, 3s
6,1 to 4s; turkeys, 5s to 6s each; butter, lld to is per
lb; eggs, is 3d per dozen; potatoes, is 2d per score.
oats, 6s to 6s 6d; barley, 8s Gd; heat, Ils to 14s
per bag. - The day being wet and stormy, the show of
cattle generally was very small.
TIVERTON.—The prices of corn in our market, 00
Tuesday last, were about the same as on the previous
week, viz.:—lnferior samples, 5s and 5s 6d; best white
wheat, Gs to Gs 6d. A leap supply was brought to this
town by rail, on the previous evening, but not produced
in the market. Barley sold at late prices; oats, 2s to
2e 4d; mutton, 51d to GO; the small Exmoor ditto,
4id to sd, but very inferior in quality; beef, 6d to 7d;
pork joints, 5d to Gd; bacon pigs, at tad by the carcase.
Ducks, 3s 6d to 4s 6d per couple; fowls, 3s to 4s ditto;
butter, 9d to 100 per lb; potatoes, 101bs for is.
HADLEIGII, DEC. 4.—We had a good supply of wheat
and barley to-day, but not much of fine quality of either,
and the inferior samples met dull sale, while the best
brought last week's prices. No particular alteration ja
other grain, but all was dull of sale.
IPswson, DEC. s.—Our attendance at this day's
market was large, but we did not consider the supply °I
corn equal to last week. The show of barley was much
of it of the middling description; the sale of such was
dull, while the finest samples sold pretty readily at last
week's prices. Wheat, unless dry, was almost unsale-
able: even the best, barely supported late prices, though
the quantity was small. Beans and peas dull, and is. per
quarter lower.
