SEEDS.

The best parcels of Clever Seed command a steady
sale, at prices quite equal to those obtained on Blonds/
last. In the inferior qualities we have very few trans'
actions to notice. Canary steady, and several parcel 6
have changed hands on speculation, at is to 2s pet
quarter more money. Foreign Cakes are easier to pur
chase. In other articles we have no change to report.

The arrivals of foreign Stock into London last weed
were again extensive—the total supply amounting
2,218 head. During the corresponding period in 1850!
we received 1,151; in 1849, 1,061; and in 1848, 1.39'
head. Nearly the whole of the foreign Sheep have
reached us out of the wool.

Only 300 he.d have been landed at the various out'
ports, mostly from Holland; but large importations 00
anticipated, especially as a further reduction in &eights,
the result of increased competition, is pretty generallf
lo.ked forward to.
The following were the imports of Stock into the United
Kingdom during the first two months of the past an
present year:—

We hear of no transactions in Spain on English Odd
count; and we may assume that speculators, from th
heavy losses sustained last year, will refrain from er,
rating this season.
The number of foreign Beasts and Sheep in to-day
market was by no means large; but there was rather en eV
tensive supply of large Hogs from France. Full averse
time-of-year supplies of home-fed Beasts came fresh I°
hand, in excellent condition. The favourable change kis
the weather, together with the falling off in the qualla'
ties of Meat on sale in Nowgate and Leadenhall, pr d
duced rather more firmness in the Beef trade, and a goo
clearance was effected, at prices fully equal to those eir
tained on Monday last. The primest Scots sold at free*
3s 6d to 36 8d per Sibs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Esses'
and Cambridgeshire, we received 2,400 Scots, Short'
horns, &c. • from other parts of England, 600 of yarioe.
breads; and from Scotland, 350 horned and polled Scots'
With Sheep we were seasonably well, but not to el
heavily, supplied. Most breeds were in moderate requee"
at last week's currency. The best old Downs, in the Woolf
sold at 4s 6d to 4s 8d; out of the wool, 3s 10d to 4s per 811
A large portion of the supply was composed of clipped
tigs. Lambs, the supply of which was small, moved
slowly, at unaltered quotations—viz., 5s to 6s per Sib_Ag°
No arrivals took place from the Isle of Wight. We hiw
only a limited inquiry for Calves, but no change was e°'
ticed in their value. The Pork trade ruled dull, at IMO,
figures.

WOOL.
sed
By private contract we have scarcely any dem-hy
for Wool, and most low qualities are offering at a
reduction in prices. Last wetk's imports into Lond°,o
were 114 bales from Bombay, 110 from Leghorn, 30,
from Sydney, 79 from the Cape, 31 from Hamburg„'
1,004 from Islay, 102 from Mogadore, and 201 tr°4—
Algoa Bay.

TALLOW.
Since our last report, the demand for Tallow, both on tb:
spot and for forward delivery, has fallen off, and prices Ili
quite 3d per cwt lower. To-day P. Y. C. on the sPi-ter
quoted at 40s per cwt; Town Tallow is 38s 6d to 893 r
cwt net cash; Rough Fat, 2s 21,4 d per 81b. The deliver;
last week was confined to 1,296, whilst the import@ er
1,269 casks. Our St. Petersburgh letter states that Price
ruled firm.
