THE MARKETS.-SATURDAY•

COVENT GARDEN.
Considering the time of year we had a large sup&
of green vegetables on sale- in to-day's market, but

even, in some instances, lower. Nearly 2,000 baskets
of fruit have been imported from France, Holland, and
Belgium, thiS week, a portion of which was on offer
here this morning; but, owing to its quality proving
bad, it was sold at extremely low figures. English
fruit was in large supply, and heavy demand, at about
previous quotations. There was an abundant
