Samples of new American are offering, but holders are too exorbitant in their deman Is to suit the views of English buyers.

Samples were rather heavy, and more than equal to the demand. Full average supplies of stock caoie to hand from our own grazing districts, but there was still plenty of room for improvement in condition. In sympathy with the heavi- ness in the dead meat. market, the trade was depressed, and quotations continued to droop. The best Scots and Crosses in some few instances made 5s. 4d., but that was quite an exceptional quotation. The real top price WHS put at 5s. 2(3., whilst much good stock was readily offered at 55 per 8 lb., and met a dragging sale thereat. From the Midland and Home Counties we receive 1 about 2,000; from other parts of England about 200 and from Scotland, 43. On the foreign side of the market was a good supply of Beasts. Ahout 500 Canadians were offered, besides some Danish, Spanish, and Swedish. The trade was dull at drooping prices. The Sheep pens were fairly supplied With a very slow trade, quotations ruled in favour of buyers. The best Downs and Half-breds were disposed of at 6s. 6d. to 69. 8d. per 8 lbs. Calves and Pigs were quiet and weak. At Deptford were about 2,200 Beasts, and 7,000 Sheep. PerSlbs to sink the offal. s. <i. a.
