SMITHFIELD.

At some of the outports the arrivals of stock from
abroad, since Monday last, have been moderately good ;
but those for our market, as will be seen below, have
been comparatively small. We had on sale here, to-
day, six Bcasts, from Jutland ; thirty Oxen, from Spain ;
and ten ditto, from Hamburgh and Rotterdam. Some
portion of this stock, especially about ten Sheep, from
Vigo, was extremely good in quality, but the remainder
unusually bad, end produced, with difficulty, miserably
low figures. From Ireland, we have received 61 Pigs,
and 47 Cows and Oxen, in very middling condition. We
had also 16 Calves, by a steamer, from Corp which sold
at no more than 3s per Sibs. Notwithstanding, the
present low rates obtained for stock, we understand a
large arrival will take place this week, from Corunna.
The following is a statement of the importations during
the week ending on Saturday last, and of those previously
this year, under the new tariff

The arrivals of Beasts fresh up this morninr, from our
grazing districts exhibited, as compared with those on
this day se'nnight, a falling off of nearly 900, yet they-
were quite adequate to meet the wants of the dealers,
whose attendance was rather numerous. Owing to the
general quality of the Beasts being inferior, the primest
lots sold freely, and in some few instances an ad-
vance of about 2d. per stone was obtained for them; but
for all other breeds the sale was dull, at unaltered rates.
The supply of Sheep was again good ; while the Mutton
trade was somewhat moderate at fully, but at nothing
quoted beyond, last week's figures. The Veal trade
was dull, at barely stationary prices. In Pigs little
was doing, and their rates had- a downward tendency.
The Bullock supply was divided as follows :-2,400
Short-horns, Runts, and Irish Beasts from Lincolnshire,
Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, and Warwickshire ;
180 Scots, Runts, Home-breds, &c., from Norfolk, Suffolk
Essex, and Cambridgeshire ; 450 Herefords and Devons
from our south-western; counties ; 200 of various
breeds from various other parts of England ; andl.s
horned and polled ScotS by sea from Scotland.

NEW GATEI,AND LEADENIIALL.

At no period within, the last ten years has so much
heaviness been observed here in the demand for each
kind of meat—the supplies of which, both town and
country-killed, have proved very extensive—as has been
that experienced since this day se'nnight; and, although
the salesmen have again submitted to lower rates,
clearances have not !been effected. In many instances
country-slaughtered ,meat has- gone off with difficulty,
at miserably low figures. In the following table will be
found a correct returp of the arrivals of meat coastwise
and by land-carriageotp to these markets:_

variation. The finest pockets of new still command
steady, but by no Means brisk inquiry, at full rates of

thing is. doh)... Duty called 160,0001. East Kent, in
