Notwithstanding that the supply of both English and
Foreig❑ Beasts on sale in to•day's market was very
limited, tho Beef trade, owing to the prevailing wet
weather, the thin attendance of buyers, and the immense
arrivals of country-killed meat up to Negate and
Leadenhall, was in a very depressed state, and in some
instances prices were almost nominal. With great diffi-
culty sales were effected at any figure. and the quota-
tions must be considered quite 4d per 81bs lower than
those obtained on Monday last. The fresh arrivals of
Beasts were only about 400 Short-horns from the
uorth, 300 lierofords, Rants, lley9u6, &e., from

other quarters, and 160 Scots from Scotland.
For the time of year, we were fairly supplied with Sheep.
The same causes which operated against the Beef trade
influenced the demand for Sheep, which ruled exces-
sively inactive at the currencies obtlined on this day
se'nnight, being a decline in those of Friday of 2d per
81bs. The highest value for the best old Downs was
4s 4d per Sibs. Calves were in full average supply,
and sluggish demand, at Friday's quotations. The Pork
trade was tolerably firm, at late rates.
