METROPOLITAN CATTLE.
To- day'e market was rather heavily supplied with foreign
stock in very middling condition. Sales progressed slowly,
at depressed currencies.

From our own grazing districts the arrival of beasts
fresh up this morning were moderate, but deficient in
quality. Good and prime breeds were in fair request, at
prices equal to Monday last ; but other stock moved off
slowly, at a decline in the quotations of 2d. per 81bs. The
top figura was ss. 4d. per Blbs.

The supply from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and North-
amptonshire comprised :about 1,650 short horns and
crosses ; from other parts of England, 650 various breeds
and from Scotland, 11 Scots and crosses.

For the time of year the show of sheep was only mode-
rate, and most breeds came to hand in very middling con-
dition. !Prime Downs, half-breds, Lincolns, and Leicesters
supported last week's currency ; but all other breads gave
way 2d. per Blbs.

We have to report an exceedingly dull sale for lambs
the supply of which was good, at 2d. per 81bs. less money;
The extreme quotation was Gs. 6d. per 81bs.

Calves wero in full average supply, and sluggish rogues
on former term; viz., from 4s. to ss. per 81bs.

The sale for pigs was heavy, and late rates were barely
supported.

In most of the leading markets held on Saturday wheat
advanced is to 2s per quarter. At that amount of im-
provement very little business was transacted. All kinds
of spring corn were firm in price, and flour was 2s per
2801 b dearer.

Throughout the continent wheat has continued to ad-
vance in price. Barley and all other kinds of produce are
very firm. In the United States both wheat and flour
have sold on higher terms.
The imports of foreign and colonial produce into Lon-
don last week were very large, viz., 40,107 qrs wheat.,
4,808 barley, 100,190 oats, 7 beaus, 6,817 peas, 246 linseed,
5,873 rapeseed, 6,315 maize, 555 sundry, 1,935 sacks and
500 brls flour.

There was again a very poor .show of English wheat
hero to-day coastwise and by land carriage. Although
the trade was by no means active, prices wore supported.
With foreign wheat we were tolerably well, but not to
say heavily, supplied. Both red and white parcels changed
hands freely, and the quotations ruled about stationary.
Floating cargoes of grain were held on -higher terms.
The inquiry for them, however, was by no means active.
No English barley was at market, and the supply of
foreign was only moderate. Grinding palities were the
turn dearer, and other qualities were firm in price.
Malt supported previous rates, with a fair inquiry. The
supply was tolerably good.

The oat trade ruled steady, at last week's quotations.
The supply of foreign oats was very large.
Beans were steady in price, with a moderato inquiry.
We have no change to notice in the value of peas,
The supply of English was limited, of foreign good.
The flour trade was steady, at ls. to 2s. per 2801bs
more money.

Agricultural seeds were heavy; but linseed, rapeseed,
and cakes were very firm.
