Ab:nit 1,800 hLad of stock have been landed at the
ourports from France, Holland, and Germany. The ar-
rivals of stock by sea from Ireland, for this market, last
week were 7 Cows, 290 Sheep and Lambs; and 3lCalves.
Fresh up to this morning's market, the receipts of home-
fed Beasts were on the increase, and of tull average qua-
lity. Owing to the unfavourable atate of the weather
for slaughtering, the Beef trade ruled heavy,at a decline
in the quotations of Monday last of quite 2d per Blbs.
The highest figure for the best Scott was 3s 8d per Sib,
and a total clearance was not effec!ed. from Norfolk,
Suffolk, Essex, and Cirabridgeihire, we received 1,400
Scots, Horce-breds, and Short buns ; Iron Lincoln-
shire, and Leicestershire, 900 Short-horns; from
other parts of England, 400 a various breeds; and
from Scotland, 200 Horned and Polled Scots.
There was an increase in the number of Sheep, especially
from the northern and eastern districts. For all breeds
the demand was in a very sluggish state, and prices gave
way 2d per Blbs. The best old Downs were selling at
from 3s 8d to 3s 10d per 81bs. In Lambs, the supply of
which was large, only a limited business was transacted
at a fall in value of 2d per Blbs. The primest Down
qualities ef Lamb produced 4s 8d per Sibs. We were
fairly supplied with Calves, which moved off slowly at
last week's currencies. The sale for Pigs was heavy,
but we have no change to notice in prices.
