such as average Il cwt net, have been sold
wholesale at full lc y tb to parties who buy to

vas very lively, at an acknowledged advance Of
half a cent pound upon last weeks quotations.
After that the business dropped, and brokers
found il much more difficult to effect sales in
the afternoon, at the asking rates OF the msrn-

against the butcher, was not more so than it
would be if the purchases we're made by q con-

Government account, gives all the drovers the
benefit of an advance. About 100 head we're
taken on account Of contractors fer the BIRTHS

The stock ON sale to-day will not be sold out as
close as last Monday, and some 800 head more

the market about the same average as last week.
