CROYDON CATTLE MARKET.—Yesterday the sale of
beasts was flat, the primest sorts made 3s. 4d. per stone ;
some half fatted bullocks sold quick, the chief demand being
for lambs, which the metropolitan butchers now seek at this
market in preference to Smithfield, the former being supplied
by the farmers near the locality, and the stock has less tra-
velling, which is advantageous to both buyer and seller.
Good lambs maintained prices at 4s. Bd. per stone, and choice
wether sheep averaged 4s. per stone. There were some well
fatted calves sold at a rather low figure.
UNEMPLOYED SEAMEN.—Lakwor in the vicinity of
the docks is very plentiful, as well as employment for seamen,
so much eo. that the average number of inmates at the Desti-
tute Sailors' Asylum in `Vella-street has not tor many weeks
past exceeded twelve who areS chiefly inralida or perfectly
destitute.
