There was a large supply of foreign stock on offer in to.
day's market, but its general quality was very infarior.
About an average time of year supply of beasts was re_
ceived fresh up from our own grazing distiicts, and the
condition of most breeds was good. Prime beef was in
fair request, and last Monday's quotations were well sup.
ported. Otherwise, the demand ruled heavy, and foreign
stock sold at reduced currencies. The general top figure
for beef was 4s 4d per Sibs.

From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 1,200 Scots and short horns; from Lincolnshire,
720 short horns; from other parts of England, 300 of
various breeds ; and, from Scotland, 76 Scuts.
With sheep we were again extensively supplied, but
their condition was by no moans first-rate. All breeds
met a slow sale at a decline in the quotations of 21 per
81bo.

The lamb trade—owing to increased supplies— was heavy
in the extreme, and prices gave way 4d per 81bs. About
50U lambs came fresh to hand from Ireland.

The few English calves in the market sold at full prices
but fonigu calves were rather cheaper.
In pigs very little business was transacted, at last week's
Currency.
