SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET.-YECTRRDAY

Fresh from our grazing districts, the arrivals of beasts to-day
were somewhat extensive, and of most excellent quality, owing
to which, and the thin attendance of buyers, the beef trade was
in a very dull state, at barely, but at nothing quotable beneath,
the prices obtained on Monday last, and at which a clearance
was not effected,

The numbers of sheep were, compared with those exhibited
for some time past, larger and of good quality. Prime old
Downs were, however, rather scarce, and which sold at full
prices. All other breeds were a mere drug, and, in some in-
stances, the rates had a downward tendency.
The lamb trade ruled dull, at previous currencies. Calves
and pigs, the supplies of which were moderate, ruled heavy at
late rates.

—total cost per quarter, 173 6d. Mr. Hudson, miller,
of Leeds, was the first purchaser. And yet the advocates
of the new Corn Bill would persuade us that British
farmers need fear no reduction of prices from the free
introduction of foreign grain into tlis country.—Not-

A LOYAL TOAST.—At the dinner of the Devon Agri-
cultural Society, at Exeter, on Tuesday, Sir Jahn Ken-
nstray, the chairman, in proposing " the Health of Prince

les, and the rest of the Royal

ramtiv," saio, •• It was a toast which put him in con-
siderable difficulty. If he were not chairman, he might
be called to order for what the lawyers call ' uncertainty'
—proposing a toast which could not be strictly defined,
for it was at present impossible to say, whether they were
drinking the health of three, four, five, six, or seven
members. (Laughter and cheers.) It might consist
at this moment of only four, it might be five, possibly
six or seven, or more. It was ve

POTATOES.—On Ti

'sday- the largest c

y of pota-
toes ever witnessed in Clonmel appeared in the markets.
They sold for sd. per stone in the morning, and in the
evening they fell to fourpence. The fact is, that the far-

mers have been holding up their potatoes, in the expecta-
tion of a great advance in prices; but now the secret is
coming out, and they are glad to sell them at a much

time. There is plenty of provision and plenty of employ-
ment in the country.—Tipperary Cormtitution of Satur-
day. The reports from Mullingar. Billina, Newry, Mo-
naghan, Carlow, Cork, Limerick, Dungannon, Kilkenny,
