METROPOLITAN CATTLE

The supply of sheep was larger than on Monday last
and the quality of the stock on the whole was good. The
demand was chiefly for prime small sheep, which changed
hands at the rates of Monday last; 5s 2d to 5s 4d per 81b
boing the top quotat'on. Prime heavy sheep, including
other qualities, sold slowly, at barely late rates.

Lambs were in good supply, and the trade ruled heavy,
on easier terms. The prices roalised varied from 5s 81 to
to 6s Bcl per 81b.

Calves were in moderate supply. The trade was slow
at late prices.

Pigs met a slow sale at the quotations of Monday last.
The supply of foreign beasts on sale here to-day was
large. The trade for all qualities was dull, at a failure in
price of 2d. to 4d. per 8 lbs. Foreign sheep were in good
supply. The demand ruled quiet, at barely late rates
The first supplies of farming boasts aro expected in the
market next Monday. _ _

There was an increased arrival of beasts from our own
grazing districts, as well as from Scotland, and the qua-
lity of the stock was prime. Taking into consideration
the circumstance that country butchers are almost wholly
excluded from the market, the supply of beasts was very
largo, and much in excess of the actual demand. Hence
the beef trade was very dull, and prices declined 2d. to
4d. per 8 lbs. The top quotation was ss. 4d. per 81bs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire wo
received 1,700 Scots, short-horns, and crosses. From
other parts of England, including Leicestershire an Lin-
colnshire, 1,000 of various breeds, and from Scotland 156
crosses, &c.
