METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a fair average supply of foreign stock in our
market to-day, and sales progressed steadily on rather
higher terms.
The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing
districts were moderately good, and in prime condition.
From Scotland the receipts were rather limited from Ire-
land trifling. The Scotch beasts came to hand in prime
order. The attendance of butchers being large, the de-
mand for all breeds of beasts was tolerably active at an ad-
vance in the quotations compared with Monday last of 2d
per Blbs. The best Scots and crosses realised 5s to 2s
per Blbs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we
received about 1,500 Scots, short horns and crosses; from
other parts of Eng►and 550 various breeds ; from Scot-
land, 135 Soots and crosses; and from Ireland, three
heifers.
There was a considerable falling off in the supply of
sheep compared with this day se'ennight, whilst the gene-
ral condition of the stock was only middling. All breeds
commanded more attention, and prices advanced 2d to 4d
per 81bs. The best Downs and half-breds, in the wool, sold
at 5s 10d to 6s, out of the wool, 5s per 81bs.
Lambs were in moderate supply and fair request on
former terms, viz., is 4d to 8s per 81bs. About 200 came
to hand from the Isle of Wight.
Primo small cal res were rather dearer with a steady
sale. Inferior calves were inactive at late rates. The top
quotation was Sc 6d par 81bs.
Pigs were in slightly improved request at from 3s to 4s
2d per Blbs.
