Although our market to-day was' very scantily supplied
with Beasts, at least two-thirds of which were of inferior
quality, the demand for that description of stock ruled
heavy, at barely Monday's prices, the extrcme figure for the
best sorts being 3s 8d per 81bs. The numb.er of Sheep was
very moderate, but quite equal to the waxits of the buyers,
the trade proving very inactive, at last week's currency.
The best old Downs, in the wool, sold at 4s 6d to 45 8d; out
of the wool, 3s 10d to 4s per 81ba. Lambs were in fair ave-
rage supply, and ready inquiry, at full qmotations. About
40 were received from the Isle of Wight. Calves and Pigs
were in moderate supply, and heavy inquiry, at late rates.
Milch Cows were selling off at from 141. to lb/. each, in-
chiding their small Calf.

TEA.—The market bas been firm.
TALLow.—Prices are steady, but there is not much ac-
tivity.

TOBACCO.—The same apathy and dulness, approaching
almost to a cessation of business in some descriptions, which
characterised the month of February, have continued during
last month, and we regret to state that the copious remark.,
and advice so liberally given by our respected conteeeporari
on the let ult., have failed in producing an apparent effect in
the feeling of buyers. American Tobacco of all sorts hal
been much neglected, sales not having exceeded 400 hhclev
and in the absence of business it is a matter of some diffi-
culty to give a correct statement of the market; but in the
limited sales effected, and which have consisted chiefly of IoW
and ordinary sorts, both for home trade and for exportation,
a slight reduction in price has been submitted to, but not of
sufficient importance to warrant us in altering our quotations,
which we have resumed accordingly. Holders of good and
fine qualities, especially for home trade, appear determined
to wait patiently the revival of demand. Importer
1,780 hhds. Deliveries, 1,022 hhds. against 349
hhds. in the corresponding month of 1850. Stock
26,553 hhds against 25,240 in 1850, 24,843 hhds in 1849,
29,548 hhds in 1847, and 26,620 in 1846. In Virginia a veal
moderate extent of business has been transacted; the pre-
sent state of the stock, the numerous and concurring account.
of the great inferiority of the last crops, not having stimu-
lated buyers to purchase except for their immediate wants;
prices have remained very fim. In Kentucky leaf and strips
the same indifference to purchase has existed, and the trifling
business done has been almost confined to the lowest quali-
ties in the market. Maryland has been in good demand, and
sales may be estimated at nearly 200 hhds. Havannah
To-
bacco has continued in very limited demand; sales during
the month have been almost confined to a few bales for ex-
portation. Recent advices from Havannah represent the nor
crop abundant and very fine in quality; prices were ruling
very high. Havannah Segars of suitable descriptions for
general trade have been taken freely at full rates. Ala'
nilla Cheroots in moderate demand; a few cases were
taken for home consumption ; prices steady. Brazil,
leaf, a parcel of 74 bales, ex Siren, just arrived, has
been sampled, and is now on show. In Manilla, Havannall
Seed Leaf, Porto Rico, and Florida nothing done. Yara is
steady demand at previous rates. In Cuba sales were made
of abou 300 bales, nearly all for exportation. St. Domingo.
very little done. In German Leaf a moderate extent Of
business has been done, the principal part in ordinary old for
cutting purposes; a few small parcels of the new crop have
arrived, in bad condition, and quite unfit for immediate use-
Colombian (Ambalema and Giron), sales have been made to
some extent, at full prices; a parcel of roll recently arrived
has been sampled, and has turned out leafy and of good
quality. Amersfoort sales chiefly confined to ordinal
sorts for cutting purposes. Stock of old dry description ie
quite exhausted. For Negro Head and Cavendish demand
has been active, taking into account present high prices,
and sales may be estimated at nearly 600 packages; for
stale parcels, which have been floating about the market
for some time, a reduction of former rates has been submitted
to ; prices for good and fine have been fully supported:
Smalls of good quality in demand.
GREEN FRUIT.—The demand for Oranges has improved
this week; a parcel of St. Michael's, two of Lisbon, and ens
Oporto, sold by Keeling and Hunt at public sale; St. NH'
chael's went lower, quality being indifferent, and Lemons
dull of sale. Sound parcels are held for a better market.
Seville Sours are selling freely, but with a heavy loss to the
shippers. i‘ uts of all kinds dull, but a renewalof consume'
tion is expected at the approaching holidays.
