SMITHFIELD.
letterss received this morning from Hull and
Sol tthampton we understand the, imports of foreign
sto ek ha,:e been extensive in those places during the
pr3sent week, they having amounted to nearly 350
Iv lad. In to-day's market the numbers of foreign
beasts on offer were composed of 45 head, per the
Great Liverpool steamer,- from Vigo in Spain; six
oxen and seven cows from Rotterdam, and eight oxen
from Hanthurgh. These - were decidedly the
worst importations we have seen, as will
be apparent when we ttate that the Spanish
beasts did not realize more than 2s. 10d. per
81bs., and even that Miserable figure was not ob-
tained without great difficulty : hence the importers
must have sufferee. severe losses. From Scotland,
35 horned and pealed Scots have arrived in the Pool
this week, 15 o' which were brought forward this
morning ; the remainder being stores intended for
the marshes -near the metropolis. The attendance
of both Landon and country buyers being by no
means nurierous, we have to report a very heavy in-
quiry 'for, beef, but the prices noted on Monday last
were s uppor. ced ; the primest sorts producing 4s 4d
per 811? s. 'The supply of Sheep was, the time of year
consid, !reel, tolerably fair. Prime old Downs met a
steady ir.quiry, at full rates of currency, but its a
whole ,*the mutton trade was dull. From Ireland
we rec ktived ten calves in very inferior condition, and
which produced no more than 3s per 81bs. Other-
wise he Veal trade was excessively slow, at an abate-
rneri4.4 on previous quotations, of quite 2d per 81bs. In

The supply of both new and yearling hops on sale

. COLONIAL MARKETS.
SUGAR.—A fair'extent of business has been done
in British Plantation, at gradually advancing prices,
being fully 64 dearer fur all descriptions since last
Friday, more particularly for the better sorts, which
are very scarce. The transactions amount to 2,200
Wilds., inclusive of 109 hhds. Barbadoes, which sold
briskly by -auction, at 60s Gd to 68s Gd
for low to fine quality, being also rather
higher. Molasses.—There has• been a fair
business done, consisting chiefly of good to fine
Antigua, which have been sold at 30s to 31a, and a
small parcel, fair Demerara at 265, which are fully
former rates. Mauritius—Has been much inquired
for, particularly the better qualities, and for the
small parcels which have been disposed of privately,
rather higher prices have been obtained. 952
bags brought to auction sold readily at 57s Gd
to GGs for low to good bright yellow, and low to good
brown at 45s 6d to 565, being an advance of fully is
to is 6d or. the good. Bengal—The better sorts of
white have been in good demand, but from the scar-
city few transactions have taken place privately. The
public sales have contained 3,839 bags, consisting
chiefly of low and inferior quality and date kind;
the whole, however, went off with more spirit than
last week, at fully previous prices ; low greyish yellow
to mid white brought 55s 6d to 655, and low to fine
brown 48s Gd to 54s Gd. Foreign—Nearly all
descriptions have been in increased demand for export,
and for the parcels sold rather higher prices have been
paid, but holders being extremely firm, there is
scarcely anything
