SMITHFIELD.

Since our report on this day se'nnight, the imports
of foreign stock for this market have been again very
limited, and, generally speaking, of very middling and
inferior quality. The 'uncertain condition in which
both oxen and cows have lately come to hand, has pro-
duced much caution on the part of the buyers, and it
is a well ascertained fact, that the prices
realised here have, in many instances, scarcely
exceeded those originally paid by the importers. In
to-day's market we had 22 Beasts, by a steamer, from
Spain ; 2 Bulls and 5 Oxen, from Hamburgh and
Bremen ; and 4 Oxen and 30 Pigs, from Rotterdam.
Some of the receipts from Spain, including the Pigs
from Holland, were good, and produced, with difficulty,
moderate figures ; but in the other descriptions nothing
was passing, and a clearance of them was not effected.
The following is a statement of the imports of stock
into England under the new tariff.

The bullock supplies sent up to our market to-day,
were somewhat on the decrease, and of secondary
quality. This circumstance, added to the large
number of buyers in attendance, caused the beef-
trade to be somewhat renovated ; and the prices no-
ticed last week were fully sustained. The primest
Scots selling readily at 4s 4d per 81bs.
The number of sheep were moderately good, while
the sale for them was rather slow, at about stationary
prices ; but the highest figure for the best old Downs
did not exceed 4s 4d per Blbs. For Veal there was
scarcely any inquiry, nevertheless we cannot call the
averages lower. The Pork trade was very dull at late rates.
From our northern grazing districts we received
1,250 short-horns and runts ; from Norfolk, Suffolk,
Essex, and Cambridgeshire, 100 Scots, homebreds,
runts, &c.; from our western and southern counties
4GO Herefords,:runts, Devons, Irish beasts, &c. • from
various other parts of England, 100 of various breeds ;
and from Scotland 7 horned and polled Scots. Some
of the beasts and sheep were suffering severely from
the prevailing epidemic.

Although the weather, during the past week, has
been mild for the time of year, we have received an
immense quantity of slaughtered meat for those mar-
kets, not only from Scotland but various parts of
England, but it has come to hand in very middling
condition. The ruling prices have again proved very
low, and it is well ascertained that the shippers must
for some time past have sustained severe losses. The
supply of meat on offer, killed in the metropolis, has
proved large, and the demand for it being heavy,
cloarances have not been effected by the salesmen.

WOOL MARKETS.

Public sales of Colonial and other Wools have been
at length announced, catalogues being out for nearly
7,000 bales, which are appointed to be disposed of on
the 25th instant, and several following days. The
imports since our last have been very scanty, while
the trade in both English and foreign is extremely
dull, at hardly late rates.
POTATOE.

Up to the Borough and Spitalfields markets the
arrivals of potatoes from Scotland and various parts
of England, including, the Channel Islands, have been
on a liberal scale since Monday last, while the de-
mand for them is heav7, and previous rates are with
difficulty supported. The general quality of the po-
tatoes on offer is good.—York reds, 553 to 60s ; Scotch
do., 45s to 50s ; Devons, 45s to 50s ; Kent, Essex,
and Suffolk whites, 45s to 50s ; Wisbeach, 45s to 50s ;
Jersey whites, 30s to 35s ; Jersey and Guernsey blues,
40s to 456.
