We were scantily supplied with foreign stock to-day, and
the demand ruled active, at enhanced quotations.
Fresh up from our own grazing districts the arrivals of
beasts were on a very moderate scale, and in very middling
condition. For all breeds there was an active inquiry, at
an advance in the quotations, compared with Monday last,
of from 4d to 6d per 81bs. A few very superior Scots rea-
lised 5s per Sibs.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire we received 1,900 short horns; from other parts of
England. 800 various breeds, and from Ireland 192 oxen
and heifers. No beasts came to hand from Scotland.

There was a very limited number of sheep on offer, in, for
the most part, poor condition. The mutton trade was very
brisk, at 4d to 6d per Blbs above the currencies realised on
this day se'nnight. The best Downs were worth fully
5s 6d per 81bs.
Calves, the supply of which was limited, moved off
briskly, at a further improvement in value of 4d per 81bs.
The top figure was 5s 4d.

There was more business doing in pigs, at very full
prices.

SEEDS.
Holders of all descriptions of seed continue very firm in
their demands, and I/te rates are well supported; indeed,
in some instances, prices show a tendency to farther im-
provement. Cakes are in good demand, at extreme cur-
rencies.
