THE LONDON MARKETS METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET LONDON, MONDAY, November 17.—There was a full average number of foreign beasts and calves here to-day, but the show of foreign sheep was only moderate. Nearly the whole found buyers at full quotations, to a slight advance. Compared with last week the general quality of the beasts exhibited this morn- ing was tolerably good. The condition of the breeds, however, was by no means first-rate. On the whole the beef trade tMe- somewhat active, at an advance in the quotations of 2d per 81b. Prime Scots, crosses, &c, realised 5s per 81b. There were a few beasts on offer from Norfolk. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire, we received 2,760 shorthorns, &c from other parts of England, 550 of various breeds from Scotland, 24 Scots and crosses; and from Ireland, 800 oxen and heifers. With English sheep, we were scantily supplied, and their general quality was very middling. Downs and half-breds,. Leicesters and Kents, changed hands freely, at fully last Monday's currency -the top quotation being 5s 8d per 81b; but all other breeds moved off slowly on former terms. We were well supplied with calves. Choice veal in trade request, at from 4s 8d to 5s per 8 lb; but inferior calves were dull, at about stationary prioes. Pigs— the supply of which was tolerably extensive—were very firm in prut, ana the demand for them ruled steady. Choice porkers rwliwd 5s per 81b. Hit. to link th* offal* ocom and imferior a. d. a. d.
