IPSWICH 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-
ment 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, as
did beans and peas, at rather lower prices.
RUTHIN, DEC. 4.—A tolerably fair attendance, but
business slow. A material difference in the prices asked
and those offered. The continued fall in the London
markets has made purchasers here unwilling to do busi-
ness to any extent ; Wheat, 17s 6d ; barley, lod 6d
to lls 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 6d; barley, good
quality, Ils; oats, varying from 5s 3d to 7s per hobbet.
INVERNESS, DEC. s.—The business done to-day was
not large, farmers generally holding 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 them
in our table.

IADVERTISEMENT.3—A Dreadful Enlargement of
the Knee, Cured by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.--
Abraham Banks, an elderly man living near the Dry
Creak, South Australia, had such a painful affection
and enlargement of the knee, that he dispaired 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 to
try Holloway's Ointment and Pills, and he commenced
a regular application of them, which in a short time
effected a complete cure. The Adelaide Observer of the
25th March, 1848, publishes this as one among the many
astonishing cures effected, in South Australia, by these
invaluable medicines.—Sold by all Druggists, and at
Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London.
TESTIMONIAL TO THE NEMORY OF THE LATE
DUCHESS COUNTESS OF SUTHERLAND.—At a recent
meeting held at Golspie by a few of the leading influen-
tial sheep-farmers of Sutherland, it was resolved to raise
a large sum, by public subscription, among the respect•
able tenantry of the county, for the erection of a monu-
ment
to perpetuate the memory of the late Duchess
Countess, who died about ten years ago. Considering
the high estimation in which the deceased noble lady
was held during a long and eventful life, and the great
benefits she conferred upon the stock-farmers of her
estates, we have no doubt that the subscriptions will be
on a sufficiently munificent scale to carry out the
in-
tentions and wishes of the contributors.—.Ross-ahtre
Advertiser.

rage supply, with a small demand. Prices ha d a down-
ward tendency fur every description of farm
produce.
Fat beef—Superior Christmas bullocks, 56s to 608 per
cwt. ; good average quality, 48s to 52s Gd ditto ; ordi-

mach in quality as it does this season.
NEWBURY, DEC. 7.—The quantity of Wheat to-day
in offer is a fair average for the time of year. Thelate
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 29 per quarter,
a large quantity being left unsold. Barley, of which we
had a good supply, sold slowly at late rates. ]3eans and
Peas, with a moderate supply, sold very slowli at un-
altered rates. Oats, of which we had a large snpPlYt
were almost unsaleable, altbovgh offering at a reduction
of Is to 2s per quarter. Average:-1,105 qrs WhOSSI
47s llid; 805 qrs Barley, 31s 80.
TAVISTOCK FAIR, DEC. 6.—The number of cattle
driven in to-day was quite equal to former December
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 425
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 6d; veal, 54df
mutton, 6d to 60; pork, 6d to 6d per lb; dead car-
cases, 8s 6d per score; fowls, 3s per couple; ducks, 35
6d 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 6d; heat, 11s to 145
per bag. The day being wet and stormy, the show of
cattle generally was very small.
TIVERTON.—The prices of corn in our market, 011
Tuesday last, were about the same as on the previous
week, via.:—lnterior samples, 5s and 5s 6d; best whale
wheat, 6s to 6s 6d. A large supply was brought to tide
town by rail, on the previous evening, but not produced
in the market. Barley sold at late prices; oats, 2s tO
26 4d; mutton, 50 to 60; the small xmoor ditto,
40 to sd, but very inferior in quality; beef, 6d to 7d;
pork joints, 5d to 6d; bacon pigs, at 6d by the carcase.
Ducks, 3s 6d to 4s 6d per couple; fowls, 3s to 4s ditto;
butter, 9d to 10d per lb; potatoes, 10Ibs for Is.
HADLEIGH, 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 in
other grain, but all was dull of sale.
IrswrciEt, DEC. s.—Our attendance at this day's
market was large, but we did not consider the supply of
corn equal to last week. The show of barley was much
of it of the middling description; the sale of such wite
dull, while the finest samples sold pretty readily at lass
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.
