SMITH:

Owing to the cold weather the imports of live stock from
abroad since Monday last have been on a limited scale, viz.:
109 Oxen and Cows and 1,085 Sheep from Harlingen, toge-
ther with 42 Beasts and 600 Sheep from Boulogne. At the
outports about 300 head have bee❑ landed, in very middling
condition; while by sea, from Ireland, 10 Oxen, 240 Sheep,
and 40 Pigs, have come to hand for this market in, compara-
tively speaking, full average quality. The supply of foreign
stock on show to-day consisted of about 80 Beasts and 500
Sheep, in-very bad condition; yet the whole found buyers,
at extreme currencies. \ i'ith home-fed Beasts we were
scantily supplied, while the quality was very inferior; how-
ever, as the attendance of buyers was good, and the weather
favourable to slaughtering, the Beef trade was somewhat
active, at an advance in the quotations of 2d. per Blbs., the
primest Scots readily producing 4s. 6d., and at which a good
clearance was effected. The Beasts were principally derived
from the northern and midland counties. The numbers of
Sheep were very scanty, owing to which the Mutton trade
was firm, at fully, but at nothing quotable beyond last week's
prices. In Calves a steady business was doing, at extreme
rates, while Pigs were in good demand at somewhat en-
hanced currencies.

Notwithstanding the supplies of each kind of meat on
sale here in the past week were large, a very extensive busi-
ness was transacted at extreme quotations. A goud clear-
ance being effected on Saturday, the actual supply on offer
to-day, was small, owing to which, and the present favour-
able weather, the demand was steady, and previous rates
were well supported. About 800 carcases of foreign Beasts
and Sheep have been disposed of since Our last.
