To-day's market was but moderately supplied with
foreign stock, and the de'nand for it was much less active.
From our own grazi,:ig districts, the arrivals of beasts,
fresh up, were tolerably good, both as to number and
quality. Althoug'u the attendance of butchers was rather
numerous, the 'aeef trade ruled dull, at a decline in the
prices really' on Monday last, of 2d. per 81bs. The
highest qr.otation for Scots-was 4s 103 per 81bs.
The receipts from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Can-
bridgeshire, amounted to 2,000 Scots and short horns ;
from other parts of England, 3,000 of various breeds; from
Scotland, 3,030 Scots ; and from Ireland, 100 oxen.
We were fairly supplied with sheep, and most breeds
came to baud in good saleable condition. The mutton
trade was in a sluggish states, at last Monday's declino in
value—the top figures for Downs, in the wool, being ss.
103. per Sibs.
We were tolerably well supplied with lambs, which sold
steadily, at full prices,—viz., ss. 6d. to 6s. 44. per 81bs.
About 300 came to hand from the Isle of Wight.
Calves—the show of which was limited—moved off
slowly, but no quotable change took place in their value.
We had a dull sale for pigs, at last week's currency.
