A steady business has been transacted since our last in East and
Mid Kent, as well as Sussex pockets, at very inn prices. In all other
kinds of Hops but little is uoing, at low rates.

Fair average supplies of Potatoes have arrived at the Water-side
during the past week, The best qualities have sold stearliy at full

Woolls.
Since our last the imports have been but moderate, viz., 371 bales
from New South Wales, 20 ditto from Antwerp, 212 ditto from Spain,
81 ditto from Smyrna, 84 ditto from Hamburgh, and 23 ditto from
Oassa. Although the stocks held by the manufacturers are compa-
r4ively small, the private contract trade is in a sluggish state, and
prices are barely supported. _

TALLOW.
The Tallow market is firm, and the prices for Tallow fully main-
tained, although the new duty of is 6d per cwt. on tbreign Tallow is
now in operation We believe purchasers have held back expecting
the prices to decline nearly equal to the reduction in the duty ; but
the stock being so limited, and the prospect of the supply in the
autumn rather deficient, prevent a fall. On the spot Y. C. is 42s 9d
for fine quality, and for the autumn 415 6d to 42s in bond for the last
three months. Town Tallow 42s 6d to 43s net cash.

LICENSING MEETING for the CITY.
(THIS DAY.)
This morning a special session for the City of London, was
held by adjournment at Guildhall, before the Lord Mayor,
Aldermen Laurie, Sir James Duke, Moon, Wilson, Challis,
and Hooper, for the purpose of granting licenses to new
houses.
There were 12 applications for licenses, or extension of li-
censes to public-houses, and 26 applications for licenses for
playing billiards.
James I /ickens Saltner applied for a license for No. 4, Guild-
hall Chambers, and 33, Basinghall-street. The premises were
formerly the White Bear Inn, and it was intended to carry
OD the business without a sign. It was supported by all the
Ward authorities—Granted.
Thomas Stephen Taylor applied for the extension of the
license at a house called the Dark House, Dark House-lane,
to a house, No. 16, Upper Thames-street. It was opposed by
the ward authorities, the Rector, and several inhabitants,
on the ground that there was no necessity for the extension
by which the license would be brought up in Thames-street,
although here were three other houses in Dark-house-lane.
One of the ALDERMEN said all those houses were City pro-
perty.
' Mr. CLARKSON, for the applicant, said this house was the
only one kept open at night for the accommodation of the
market people and persons going by late and early steam-
boats.—License granted.
WM. DUNN, CROWN AND SCEPTRE, 19; ow CHANGE.
Mr. LAURIE appeared against this application on the part
of the ward authorities, and fifty-five of the inhabitants.
There are only 220 houses in the ward, and twelve licensed
houses; three others had been shut up within the last twelve
months in consequence of business in the neighbourhood
having fallen off through several inns haying been given
up, and the business carried nearer to the different railway
termini.
Mr. CLARKSON showed that this was formerly a licensed
house, and now kept as a beer shop, the petitioner not having
had the means to take out his license, his house having been
robbed an'l his cash-box stolen.—Granted.
James I'. Cuthbert applied for a license to a house No. 14,
Great Distaff-lane.—Granted.
James Pickivorth applied for a license to dining-room Ne.
38, Throgmorton-street, exactly opposite the Auction-room
Coffee-house.—Refused.
John Hartley Butterworth applied fur a license to houses
No. 39 and 40, King-street, Cheapside.
Mr. Unfits opposed, and stated that the applicant had
been bankrupt in 1838, obtained his certificate in 1840, and
took the benefit of the Insolvent Act in 1844. Yet he now
stated that he had laid out 3,0001. on it. He (the Learned
Counsel) considered it highly improbable that the money
had been laid out, but that the lease had been mortgaged--
at all events his property was subjected to the claims of his
creditors.

Mr. CLARKSON addressed the Court, and the license was
granted.

George Edward Healey applied fir a license to a house,
No 18, Old 'Change ; it was in another ward, but exactly
opposite to the Crown and Sceptre, granted above and
within three doors of another, licensed house..—Tire license
was refused.

Messrs. Ring and Bryman applied for a spirit license to
"Birch's," on Cornhill.—lt was granted without oppositiom.
Joseph May applied for a license to a house at the corner
of New-street, to be called Victoria-street. It was strongly
opposed.
Mr. BODKIN supported the petition, and stated that the
house had been built by Messrs. Calvert and Co., the brewers,
on ground leased to them by the Corporation; the ground
had been taken with a view of inducing others to purchase
also, as without that being done, the Corporation could not
carry into effect the improvements; they desired to open a
direct road from FFringden-street to the northward—some
difficulties had existed but were likely to be overcome.—
Granted.

James Ramsden obtained a license to dining •rootne, No. 6,
Clement's-lane.

John Benjamin applied fors license to a house, No. 20,
New street, Gravel-lane, Hinindsditch. One house bad been
licensed last year near the spot, but that had not been
opened:—Refused.

William Dainei, for a house, King's Head and Lamb,
Thames-street, transferred from No. 59 to No. 49.—Granted. The licenses suspended at the last meeting were renewed.
The other business was of no interest.

Although the numbers of both Beasts and Cheep on offer to-day
were somewhat 'less than those exhibited at the corresponding date
in 1845, the actual weight of meat (from the improvt d condition of
the animals) was a fair average one. This circumstance, together
with the mildness of the weather and the heaviness in the demand in
the dead markets, caused the Beef trade to rule inactive, at barely,
but at nothing quotable beneath last week's prices, at which a clear-
ance was with difficulty effected. From .Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex,
and Cambridgeshire, we received 1,100 Scots homebreds and short-
horns ; from the northern counties, 200 short horns ; iron; the
western and midland counties, 500 Herefords, Devons, runts,
&c.; from other parts of England, 400 of various kinds,
and from Scotland there were 120 horned and polled Scots.
Uthough the numbers of Sheep were tar from extensive, the sale for

them was heavy. However, the primest old Downs sold at previous
currencies, but the middling and inferior qualities declined 2d per Sibs.
About 4,000 of the Sheep were out of their wool, and which sold at
8d per Sibs beneath ‘hose in the fleece. About 60 Lambs were re-
ceived from the Isle of Wight. Prime Essex qualities produced full
prices, but other kinds full 2d per Sibs. In Calves very little was
doing, and the prices were somewhat in favour of the butchers. rigs
moved off steadily at late rates.

Since this day se'nnight, the arrivals of slaughtered Meat from
Scotland and different parts or England have been somewhat on the
increase, and of fair average quality. The supply of Meat killed in
the metropolis has• been moderately good ; hence the general demand
has been in a sluggish state, and in some instances the quotations
have had a downward tendency. Very few carcases of either foreign
Beasts or Sheep have appeared on sate.
