SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, Nov. 22.
The supply of Beasts and Sheep at market this morning was
similar to the supply of last Monday the number of the former
being large, consisting of 3,540 head, and small of Sheep, comprising
19,840 head. Of Pigs there was an average supply, but Calves were
more numerous for a Monday's market. The return of wet weather
caused a rather short attendance of butchers, who, in general, were
backward in purchasing. There was a very limited demand for
Beef, but last Friday's prices were firmly maintained. Mutton was
also in no particular request, bnt the short supply made the trade
better than it would otherwise have been ; a decline of 2d on Fri-
day's prices was freely submitted to, and all sold by the close. The
increased supply of Calves caused Veal to be heavy at 2d Per stone
lower. In Pork a good business was done, and fine young choice
meat commanded an advance of 2d. (Per stone of 81bs, sinking
the offal.)

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, Nov 22.
The supply of English Wheat to this morning's market was large,
and of Foreign (which now all goes into bond) we had 28,705
quarters up to Saturday last. In consequence of the continued wet
weather, English Wheat come to hand very damp and out of con-
dition. The trade is much lower; the finest descriptions being as
per quarter, and inferior full 4s, cheaper. Barley is larger in sup-
ply, comprising 10,000 quarters alone from the home counties, and
is also cheaper by is than last week. Of Foreign Oats the supply
is small. but of Irish upwards of 17,000 quarters, and about 7,000
of English and Scotch. New Oats are 6d to is lower, but old with-
out variation. New Beans are the turn cheaper, and White and
Grey Peas bave declined Is to 25 per quarter. The supply of
English Spridg Corn is larger to this morning's market than for
some time past. Flour contiues nominally as last week. The Seed
trade is without any material alteration, with little doing.

WEDNESDAY

Now. 24

The business has been very dull this morning, Without any
in the prices of Monday last, but a considerable reduction took
place on that day in the value of English Wheat. The samples are
so damp as to be almost useless to the millers, and the free foreign
Wheat of superior quality is held at rates so excessive that the trade
is limited to the most indispensable supplies. The stock of Oats is
considerable at this time, and the prices are not so firm as on the
last market day.

HULL CORN MARKET, Nov. 23.
The stock of Linseed continues small, and last weeks arrivals
have beer, taken at an advance of is to 2s per qr. Rapeseed has
been in better demand, and some sales have been made at our
quotations. Linseed cakes continue to be in fair demand. Rape
cakes nominal. Bones still support their value. The market to-
day has been more than ordinarily inanimate, and where sales have
been made, either by farmers or factors, lower prices have been
submitted to. The weather has been very various, and the con-
dition of the new Wheat offering equally so; the best dry parcels
met onty slow sale at a decline of fully 2s per qr. ; second qualities
are altogether neglected. The old foreign is limited to the merest
retail ; had buyers come forward for any quantity, lower prices
would have been submitted to. Barley is offering more freeiy, and
buyers may select their quantities at is to is per qr. less money
than last week. Beans and Peas may also be noted frilly Is per qr.
lower.
