SIVICXTIKFXELD.

During the past week the Giraffe, Ocean, and Batavier
steamers have arrived in the Liver from Rotterdam, having
on board 101 Oxen and Cows, together with eight Calves,
in, for the most part—though their quality has proved by
no means so prime as we have noticed on seine
previous occasions—fair average condition. The num
ber of foreign Beasts here did not exceed
25, and which mostly found buyers at full rates of
currency—viz., from 161 to 181 per head. The Calves were
worth 3/ lOs to 415 s each. At the outports, no stock has
been received from Holland, but several imports are shortly
expected at Hull. It will be observed, from our weekly
returns, that a very great increase has taken place in
the importations of Dutch Beasts this season, compared
with those of last ; yet we are quite of opinion, judging from
the accounts which have just come to hand, that a further
improvement will be noticed in them for some time hence.
Although a portion of the Beasts and Sheep here to-day was
suffering from the effects of the epidemic, the disease presented
itself in a mitigated form, as very few losses have been
experienced in transmitting the supplies to our markets.
On the whole, the number of beasts here this morning, de-
rived from our own districts, were seasonably extensive,
while a slight improvement was apparent in those received
from Norfolk. The 'dead markets being well cleared of
their late arrivals, the weather somewhat favourable
to slaughtering, and the attendance of buyers rather
numerous, the Beef trade was active, at an
improvement in the currencies obtained on this day se'nnight
of quite 2d per 81bs; the primest Scots and Homebreds rea-
dily producing 4s 2d per 81bs, at which a good clearance was
effected. Mr. Vorley had on sale ten of the most extra-
ordinary short horns, fed by Mr. G. Everett, of Caslow,
near Yarmouth, we almost ever recollect to have
witnessed here at this season of the year. These
perfect animals, which weighed about one hundred and forty
stone, were disposed of at a high price, and dispatched per
railway to Bristol. The supply of store things was rather
limited; while the transactions in them from the more plen-
tiful supply of grass, were at somewhat improved quotations
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, were
1,500 Scots, Home• breds, and Short-horns ; from the northern
counties, 200 Short-horns; from the western' and midland
districts, 300 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c.; from other
parts of England 250 of various kinds; and from Scot-
land 200 Scots. The most important feature in to
day's market was the activity in the Mutton trade, and the
great improvement in the currencies. For instance, the best
old Downs produced 5s per Blbs without difficulty, other
kinds selling readily at a proportionate advance. It appears
to be the pretty general opinion that a further enhanced value
will be speedily realised. From the Isle Of Wight we received
240 Lambs; but from other parts the arrivals were rather
limited. The Lamb trade was active, at fully Friday's im-
proved quotations. The Veal trade was steady, at 2d per
81bs more money. Pigs, 100 of which were Irish, moved off
slowly, at late rates.

Although a decided falling off has been apparent in the
arrivals of slaughtered Meat up to these markets during the
past week, they have proved seasonably extensive, and of
fair average quality. With Meat killed in the metropolis we
we have been fairly supplied. Yet the demand, especially
