DONCASTER FennuAttv Fain.—This renewed fai nhi
has not been beld in the recollection of any one, was
tended by a great number of dealers and jobbers, and
prices obtained were of a description to infer that hp
cultural produce is likely to receive better enconraeectier
though as yet nothing like remuneration. The cat
market exhibited a very fair show, but hail them bei
double the number, they would have been disposed of
