DONpASTER MEETING , Hoxdat , Skw . 13 . The yeti baa ag&ln wheeled round , ndlit ia no vr onr daty to lay before our readers a concise account of the doing ! at tb » one * frr-famed Doncaster B&eea . But In tbe oeUefwenrastrffer to same particulars connected irUhftettertiBg , \ rtiichipe not very creditable to tbe partiK conemed . To those of oar reader ? trho take in lu > uut Lujjuitliia iiiiUmii . it will be well known that iitnwiiiiliiMM h * ve occurred Mlcnlsted to dim the isstzt and mar the attraction that , until late y « us , hu existed with ragpttt to thorn Race * . In the fin * place , throaih » ame Tuaeeonntable remissness , do Stewards were appointed at toe last Baeet , a * bat Invariably be « a the ctatom , and « o eoafident were the parties whose duty it was to look after them , that no difficulty would ecortn the acceptance of the office by some Koblemaa « r GtiaUtmaa , that it vu not until within a very few ¦» eek > back that it wa » fbond out that some effort was
nuuiiinry . to be made to Geeoretwo gentlemen who weald act , and it it a positive fact that the Town Clerk ha » tjarsltod near a tfcoaaand miles to find a coadjutor to LordMaJdatone , who consented to be pot in nomiaaSaoa as one of the Stewards . Lord Milton , to whom appHtt&m was made , refused , on the ground that racing w » not now conducted as forzaeriy , otherwise the Noble Lord would have only been too proud of the beaosR How it is well known that racing is not conducted in tb&t straightforward and honourable manner that it ought to be , and the Flenipo and Bloomsbury affairs , sad no later than list year , the palpable defections of Maroon and Calypso , either of whom could have wan the Leger , bare in no way tended to the restoration of the popularity of racing . These fact * are
too glaring asd stand forth too conspicuously to be denied , and if this Teas the sole reason of his Lordship ' s refusal , we aust say we cannot , as impartial journalists , censure him . Bat it has been said that this was sot the only reason why his Lordship refused , aad that eiremnstinee * of vary recent occurrence , and fresh in the xjemory of oar readers , had an influence with Lord Milton , which , if true , ought certainly not to have prevailed his acceptance of the office . Be this as it raaj ^ it was not until a fortnight ^ agp- that it was asaopBeed that Sir Charles Ibbetson . ^ BsrV , had , in eoniuncttoa with Lord Maidstone , accepted the office . That soaeVBeta&m . most be made is erideat , and we would suggestttat the expenee of having to ' provide a cup , as has heretofore been the case , be taken off the
stewards , and that some noblemen or gentlemen be appointed flaring the then race week for the forthcoming year , and we will Tenture to say that little or no difficulty will then occur . Some alterations must also be made with respect to the races themselves , and more especially as regards the cup , the entries for which Trere KmaHer than had been known for many years , asd also for mart of the otter stakes that closed on the 11 th inst . The bungling ef the Corporation , who have been a great deal too parsimonious , and only case out more HberaUy at the eleventh hour , and when they were obliged to do so , or have Tery few races at ' all , and ooxareg&ently considerably less company than usual , must in future be prevented . In fact , a new spirit must be infused into the races ; no time should be lost in forming an attire committee , as in ether towns .
Handicaps , which are sow all the rage , must be introduced . If aayproof wen wanting of tMs it is to be found in the entry for the innkeepers' Handicap exceeding that for the Cup and all the other stakes that dosed on Thursday week . The Cup should be made a handicap , similar to the Liverpool , Newcastle , and other enps . The town , and especially the corporation , must contribute more liberally , and begin earlier than they have dona before . The stakes should also be advertised more frequency , and other minor aSun attended te , or the races will further decline in popularity . We observe that it lias been suggested that the racing should be reduced to four days ; to this we do not agree , as the baneful effects of reductions in the number of days in other places , especially York , where they have gradually receded from seven to two days , with even then sport only barely sufficient for one day , has been
The weather , this day , was beautifully fine , and much hotter than ft has been for many years . The number of raattgaanoanoedon the cardwaari * , while only &r « came o £ Soot dissatisfaction was fe' . t at this . Bee ' s"Winf has farmed the Fltewilliani Slakes fo ? a number of years , and was again entered this year , with only ose solitary competitor , who declined to run with bo formidable an antagonist , consequently there was , for the firs * time , we believe , so race for the stake . The 00063 * 8 Plate was also walked over for . Why this Bbould-be allowed we cannot telL Sorely the public aosey ahoold not be squandered away in any such manner . Why not have a condition that three hones should start , or n » ace ? At an events some alteration ought to be made , as it is ridiculous to allow these prises to be so often walked over for . The attendance of company of the course was much thinner than for many jmn . W « now proceed to give a description of the trwrt , tweb Mit was : —

At five minutes to three o ' clock the bell rang for saddling and clearing the course , and Coronation was the first to make his appearance on the course , looking very welL He w * s shortly followed by Satirist , Tan Amburgb , The Squire , and the rest of the eleven .
After parading , as usual , in front ef the Stand , the lot made their appearance at the storting-post The first attempt to get off was , however , " no go , " The Squire , Cattonian , and Van Amburgh , being the only ones that got off . The second attempt was more fortunate , as a most beautiful start was tffected . Cattonian took the lead followed by Van Amburgh second , and Satirist third , Coronation and the Squire being outside , and the rest behind , Galaor being in the rear . In t his position they ran until near the Cross Koad , b « * ore reaching the foot of the bill , when Coronation took the lead , making strong running , closely followed by Van Amburgh , Satirist , Cattonian , The Squire , and Pagan . After passing the hill , The Squire nearly sustained a fall , and ran as if he was goinc to come down for a
stride or two , by which be lost his foremost place , and was from tkis point , near the T . Y . C . starting post to the Red House , nearly the last horse , whsn he made his ground , and rejoined the front horses . Coronation continued to lead , at a steady good pace , with Tan , Satirist , The Squire , Cattonian , and Pagan also well up . At the Inlock farm . Cittonlaa ' s career was at an end , as he fell back , and declined further contest . At the Old Rails Satirist came close up to the crack , and ran with him to the distance . Toe Squire being dose at hand . Here Satirist took the lead from Coronation , was never after headed , and won very cleverly by half a neck , the crack appearing at the last to run very dead in Day's hand . The Squire ran in a good third ,
about a length behind the two , and clear of the rest . Pagan was fourth , Ermengardis fifth , Van Amburgh sixth , and Jack Sheppard seventh . The race was run in tkree minutes , and twenty-one seconds . The value of the stakes is £ 3 , 475 . The Marquis of Westminster is most truly a fortunate man , haTing last year ran second for the Derby , and first and second for the St Le £ sr > and this year he has ran second for the Derby , acd won the Oaks and St Leger . Truly may it be said that money almost always runs to the greatest heap . Scott is not less fortunate than the Marquis , for in twenty years he has won eight Legers , four of them successively , six of which have been trained by the no less celebrated trainer , Mr . John Scott , his brother .
Coronation was brought down by van and rail , and took up his abode at Thriburgh Park , near Doncuter , where he remained until the morning of the race , when he was brought per Tan to Do&caster , and placed in a a stable in the lane leading from the Thome road , in to the Town ' s-field , from whence he came to start . It is said that he had not had a gallop since the preceding Friday , and to this dreumstance his defeat is attributed .

At the Red House turn the other two went up to him , and at the distance Broadwatb and Dr . Caius challenged , and a most beautiful race ensued , Broadwath finally winning by about half a length . ¦
WEDNESDAY , Skptfmbkb 15 . ¦* - ~ Wednesday generally furEisb . es a poor day ' s eport , but it seldom presented such a miserable one as it did this week , there being two walks over out of the four races announced , and the Corporation Plate , being only the shadow of a race without any eembiance , still farther reduced the quantity . We think that the Innkeepers' Handicap ought to have been preserved for this day , a 3 the St . Leger is sufficient attraction for one day , but the Doncastrians decided otherwise . There was an average Wednesday ' s attendance of company , and the weather was fine . The following ia a return of the sport such as it was : — The Foal Stakes of 100 sots eacn , h ft .

Gladstone immediately afterwards entered the House , and haring advanced to the table , the oaths were administered to him , and the Right Hon . Gentlemam subscribed the Parliamentary roll .
Sir R- Peel explained his intentions in the House of Commons . He is to move the remaining miscellaneous estimates , including a grant ef between £ 80 , 000 and £ 90 , 000 for warming , and - ventilating the new Houses of Parliament , » nt that , wbjM is first to be referred to a Committee . to ; UlttHi into that alone .

Goolbarn * the Chancellor of the Exchequer is to state on the first day of Ways and Means , not yet fixed , how he is to provide temporarily for the deficiency of the revenue £ 2 . 000 , 000 ; but Sir Robert will not now state what measures he regards as necessary to equalise the expenditure and the revenue , though that must be done . Neither will he now state what the Ministers will do to meet tho commercial ^ difficulties of the country , postponing these subjeota till next
session . Lord J . Russell said that he disapproved of Sir Robert ' s course , and on next day would state his reasons why the Ministers ought now to propose th ' ein measures . There will be some debate yet on the state of the country , though no doubt the confidence of the House will tollow Sir R . Peel , and , in spite of protestations to the contrary , the delights of shooting will carry away the Members from town and from their public duties . The House adjourned at an early hour .

MANCHESTER . —The meeting , called by the " Plague" for Thursday last , to memorialise tho Queen not to prorogue Parliament till the Corn Laws had bees taken into consideration , was all on one side , neither Tories nor Chartists considering the " humbng" as worth any attention . * . ¦ J
KSXOSZiET . —Mr . Leacb . of Manchester , lectured on Wednesday evening , in the Working Men ' s Hall , to a large and attentive audience . The lecture was in Mr . Leach ' s u : ual style , clear , argumentative , and eloquent , and could not fail to convince all who heard it of the necessity of a change . Sixty new cards of membership were procured by the association , and two shillings were given by a few friends at Miekletbwa ' . tc , near Bingley , for the imprisoned Chartists .
XttOTTRAM . —Mr . John Campbell lectured at tho Chartist meeting room , Hollingworth . on Sunday last , to a respectable and attentive audience , which gave the greatest satisfaction . After the addres- several patriotic members of the old association from Glossop , enrolled their names , and took cards of membership ; amongst those was the truly honeet and patriotic Dr . Thornton , the indefatigable champion of the working man ' s rights . SUNDEXtXiAND . —Grandly goes the good causeon here . Since ourla ^ t we have been
unexpectedly planned into an election struggle , Mr . Alderman Thompson having accepted an invitation to Bland » " walk in" at the family seat of the Lowihcrs , the County of Westmoreland . This step , on tho part of the notoriously tricky Alderman , was a very prudent one , as the last election proceedings in Sunderland , when Mr . Binns was returned by a show of hands , perhaps unparalleled in number , and by comparison as a majority over the others , giTing the Alderman most galling evidence that his reign of cant , humbug , and charity trickery , had drawn to a close . The Alderman , however , —
" With that low cunniag which in meaner breasts supplies , The better part of being wise , " had very nicely , as he thought , provided a Conservative buccesFor . Accordingly the same mail , which brought the news of the cunning Alderman ' s retirement , brought also Mr . Wolverly Attwood , the late member for Durham , as his successor . On Thursday last , Mr . Attwood arrived , and his party immediately commenced a vigorous canvas in his favour . Tho Whigs were also suddenly aroused from their general torpor , and finding their opponents had got the start of them by this manceuvre they resolved by an unusual display of energy and
promptitude , to endeavour to regain their lost ground . Accordingly , a deputation , by express , was despatched to Lord Howick , then at Howick Castle , to invite his Lordship to stand as their representative . What Bhould we , the Chartists , do , waa a question eagerly a ^ ked , and very promptly answered . It was resolved to send immediately for Colonel Thompson , for , in addition to the promises of supporting him received from a considerable number of electors on a former occasion , it was generally believed that Lord Howick would not condescend so low as to take a Borough , having like Morpeth the honour of having sat for a county , but like that Lord , also the mortification of

Thompson , or any other gentleman holding our view .- * , who was willing to be ; put forward . Mr . W . left Darlington on Friday morning , and arrived in London the same evening . , He immediately waited upon Mr . Cleave , to get his assistance in fiuding out Mr . O'Connor , to whom I Mr . W . resolved to apply for information and advice . ! Mr . W . had painful proof of the yastness of the metropolis , having been occupied till half-past one 1 on Saturday morning , along with Mr . Cleavo , before Mr . O'Connor was found . When found , however , that gentleman immediately enkri-d heart and soul into the mission , and above all other
j men , recommended Colonel Thompson , not i perhaps the best man in every rsspect , but the best j man to win wish , and winning was our determina-! tion . On Saturday morning , as early as possible , i Mr . Williams proceeded to Blackheath for the Col . ; i having arrived he had the mortification of learning ; that tbe Colonel was not at home , that he was at Ram 3 gate . Not a moment was to be loBt—it was then nooa , and the Colonel was seventy-two miles of . i It was too late for steaming down and there was no i other means but posting ; posting was a most expenj sive means and with the funds in pocket was impos-! sible , but a gentleman immediately furnished the ] needful and off Mr . W . set for Ramsgate . He
arrived there at night and found the Colonel , who , after consideration , resolved to accept the invitation . Next morning they in company left Ramsgate for London , intending to catch the Sunday evening railway mail train for Sanderland . They arrived about half an hour before the mail train started , but the Colonel , having then learnt that Lord Howick had accepted the invitation , and intonded going to a poll , decliucd to proceed further . Mr . Williams was instructed to proceed on to Sunderland , and to act as from circumstances might Beem most advisable . When Sir . Williams arrived , he found that the electors had been well canvassed by Mr . Binns and others , asd the result was , that although a great number

Tuesdat EvENlJfd : —This eveninj ? , a splendid meeting was held in the Arcade Room , for the purpose of hearing information and advice respecting the policy to be pursued by the Chartists at , the election . Mr . Pierce was called to the chair , and opened the business well . Mr . Taylor , Mr . Binns , and Mr . Williams severally addressed the meeting . They stated that they were utterly unable to advise the Chartists which way to act . the principles and political characters of both candidates being unexoeption&Ily bad . Mr . Williams and Mr . Binns then detailed interviews they had had with both parties , which created a great deal of amusement and some astonishment also .
. Lire Boat Hotjbb , -Sum ) at . —On Sunday afternoon , upwards of 1 . 000 people assembled at the Life Boat House , when Mr . Binns delivered an able and interesting address . The greatest anxiety for news respecting the Colonel was manifested , but up to this time none had been received . Accordingly , it was resolved to hold another meeting in the evening at the same place . At six o ' clock , the hour appointed , there was an extraordinary number assembled . It was computed thore would be about three thousand present . Mr . Binns , Mr . Taylor , and Mr . Richmond severally addressed the meeting , but great disappointment was felt at the non-reeeipt of any intelligence respecting Colonel Thompson . It was , therefore , resolved to hold another meeting on Tuesday evening .
Glorious Meeting . —On Friday evening last , a meeting of the most thrilling character was held in he Arcade Room , when after able addresses from Messrs . Binns , Bragg , and others , the following resolutions were moved and carried : —*• That this meeting , having seen a bill issued by the Whigs , requesting the electors to withhold their support from Lord Dunganuon , hereby expresses its approval of the same , and calls upon the electors to withhold their support from any man , whether representing Whigs or Tories . "
" That this meeting is determined to give the Tory Parliament a proof that the people of Sunderland are dissatisfied with the mis-rule of faction ; and it pledges itself to hold no parley with men or parties who will not strike a blow at the despotism that gr ads us to the dust . " The meeting also resolved to await the return of Mr . Williams from London , and that they would support no candidate but an outan-out reformer . A committee of Chartist electors and non-electors was also chosen , and every arrangement made to carry on the election .
Bribery . —A friiend of Mr . W . Attwood , the Tory candidate , Sunderland . the other day , waited on Mr . George Binns , and made overtures to him to persuade ike Chartists to support Mr . A . The fellow was told to call again , whieh he did , and in the presence Or Mr . Williams and other persons , agreed to pay £ 125 on the support of the Chartists b _ eiog given . It was then arranged that he should Meet them again in the evening , which he did , when ngcarrowly escaped being tarred and feathered , but xwls sent away with the remark , that the Chartists $ jf Sunderland , though poor , were honest , and that his employer , though "a highly respectable London merchant , " wa 3 yet a most unprincipled scoundrel .
BRISTOL . —The ice of Chartism was broken fender rather favourable circumstances , on Monday eVening last , at Kingswood-hill , near Bristol . The Chartists assembled , with Vincent at their head , and , fts if by magic , the weather , whijph ha s for some nmo been , rather against out-door meetings , turned wt-moat pr « pitiou # . A cart was the platform , and worn it was expounded Chartism to about 1000 or 1500 people , composed of persons , magistrates , doctors , lawyers , shopkeepers , rural policemen , and working people . Mr . Joseph Ennis took the chair ; and introduced Mr . Tudor , who moved the
following : — " That we are of opinion that an alteration in the present system of representation is requisite , and theChartercontainsthe principles necessary to secure universal equality of rights to the people of these realms , and we pledge ourselves to do our utmost towards adding to the signatures of any petition in favour of the People ' s Charter . Mr . Copp ably seconded the same . The next resolution was a vote of thaoka to Shanaan Crawford and his glorious minority of tbitry-nine , proposed b y Mr . Simeon , seconded by Mr . Bloore , and ably supported by Mr . H . Vincent in his usual style . The meeting was most unanimous , and broke up in a peaceful and orderly manner .

BBA » FOR 1 > . —Meetings of Council , and Chartis * Election Cobimiitee . —On Sunday eveniug last , the council held their usual weekly mcitiug , and after the transaction of the ordinary business , the Election Committee reported that , in consequence of the Whigs persisting in their promotion of Mr . Busfeild ' e return , contrary to the resolution of a public meeting , in favour of Colonel
Thompson , previously reported in the Star , the committee had considered it expedient to call a public meeting for the purpose of deciding upon measures to be adopted by the Chartist electors at the then forthcoming contest , and a resolution submitted to the council , which was unanimously approved of as proper to be proposed to the public meeting . The meeting , convened by placard , took place on a spacious piece of ground , in front of the Odd Fellow ' s Hall , and was attended by a very orderly , attentive , and respectable audience , of the strength and sinew of the nation , working men , amounting to about 2000 , amongst whom might be distinguished a slight sprinkling of the tho discomfited Corn Law " Plaguers , " who more
than once attempted to disturb the harmony of the meeting , but were instantly prevented by previous judicious arrangements . Mr . John Arrau presided . Mr . Martin moved , and Mr . Dewhirst seconded , the following resolution , M That in consequence of utter disregard manifested by the Whigs for their professions of respect forpublic opinion in rejecting the superior claims of Colonel Thompson , as the most fit and proper candidate for the representation of this Borough , in defiance of the unanimous resolution of a public meeting , it is quite apparent that till the Whigs are completely annihilated as a party , the attainment of the People ' s Charter will be frustrated , and for the electors to remain neuter upon this important event would be highly culpable ; this
meeting therefore recommends to the Chartist electors as the most likely means of advancing their cause under present circumstancesjto vote for the Tory candidate . " Mr . Clarkson being called upon to support the resolution , he presented himself amidst , applause , and was very attentively heard ; and , after analysing the proceedings and circumstances of the last election , and contrasting them with their present local position , he adduced reasons and arguments to shew that although Whiggery was fallen , it was imperatively necessary to deprive the adder of its sting , in order the more successfully to bafile with tho boa constrictor ; aud concluded by congratulating the assembly on the rapid advancement of sound political information , which would lead to a correct
decision on the important topic for the consideration of the meeting , and which decision it would be treason against the majority of the people for the Chartist electors to oppose . A person came forward to move an amendment recommending neutrality , which having found a seconder , was put and lost , the original resolution being carried by an overwhelming majority . The nomination of Bnsfield and Wilberforoe took place on Tuesday , and the latter gained the show of hands , much to the dissatisfaction of the Whigs . The polling on Wednesday progressed very evenly , and terminated by a majority of only four in favour of Busfeild , which wo understand uis opponent means to scrutinise on a petition against the return . The Chartists , truejto the recommendation of the public
meeting , followed its directions , withfew exceptions , using no coercion whatever to influence the predilections of any single voter ; and the best informed Tories saddle the right horse by correctly attributing their loss to the supineness ana over confidence of the Tory gentry absent at thiB season of the year . On tho declaration of the poll , Byles aud others addressed their Whig friends . . ** The intriguer " returned thanks to the bludgeon men , who scoured the'Streets during Tuesday night , to the great terror and alarm of the more peaceable inhabitants of the town . He attempted to palaver the Chartists by stating that he would have abided by the decision of a public meeting in favour of Col . Thompson , but was sharpl y taken up by Mr . Clarkson , who ably exposed his political dishonesty . The Returning Officer dissolved his Court and retired , aud at the conclusion , three cheers were given for the Charter

The stocks in the Halls ' have rather increased , but there is no doubt the demand for cloth , particularly of tha heavier descriptions , is more steady than it was some months ago . The wool market , since the recent sales in London , has been firm ; and manufacturers are anticipating a fair winter ' s demand . '
HUDDERSFIELD CtOTH MARKET , TUESDAY . —The business done in the Hall to-day has-been somewhat less than last week . A continued gloom appears to hang over the whole market . There was httle done in- the fancy goods . Wools , oils , and ware 3 maintain a steady price . The demand for them is small .

In the goods market there was a tolerable demand for fustians , domestics , and long cloths ; but Bhirtinfts and printing cloths continue much depressed . —Manchester Guardian of Wednesday . Malton Cork Market , Sept . 11 . —In cousequetice of field operations we have not much passing in the Cora trada at our market this day ; Wheat in good demand at last week's prices ; Barley not much offering , though a sample of new sold to-day at 32 s per qr .

Newcastle Corn Mabkeb , Sxpt . } 1 th . —With the exception of Tuesday and Thursday , the weather has been fine daring the week ; and although a very great deal of Wheat has been cnt . yet little or nothing has been housed , and the bulk of the few sampl es of our own growtn at market this morning were in very bad condition , and sold at prices varying from 42 s . to 66 s . per quarter . A few shipments of new Wheat have got in from Norfolk , the best red samples of which sold at 70 a . per quarter , S 3 lbB . per bushel . There is but little old English Wheat bfferiug now ; nevertheless it most be noted 2 s . to 3 j . per quarter lower than this day se ^ nnigbt . In bonded nothing doing . Rye is Is . per quarter lower . Barley meets with a ready , sale , and old English is much wanted . In Beans and Peas there ia no change . Malt maintains its value . We had a good supply of Oats to-day , and prices gave way Is . per quarter . Floor is a very heavy sale j and again Is . to 2 s . per sack lower . -
Salforp Cattle Market , Wednesday . Sept . IS . —The show of Beasts to-day was about tnat of last week , but of Sheep and Lambs the supply was rather better . The demand for Beef was quite equal to the abow , and all sold at the rates of l ast week . Mutton and Lamb still maintain the full rates of last week , owing to there beia / r plenty of buyers at market . Best Beef 6 d . to 6 £ ., iambs 7 d ^ Mutton 6 £ d . te 7 d ., middling 6 d . to 6 £ d . Lobdok Corn Exchange , Mokdat . —There was a limited supply of Wheat , Barley , Beans , and Peas , from Essex , Kent , and Suffolk for this day ' s market a few vessels with Oats have arrived since Friday from our own coast and Ireland , and the import of foreign grain has been large duriBg the past week .
Up to Thursday the weather was unsettled , but since tnen it has been very fine here , the past three days splendid—a hot sun accompanied with a brisk breeia from the eastward yesterday and this morning . — There was scarcely one sample of old English Wheat in this day's supply from the home counties , and the quantity of new being so limited , a good demand was experienced , and the prices of this day se ' nnight were fully supported ; and notwithstanding that all the foreign Wheat will be liberated next Thursday , combined with the present beautiful weather , and favourable wind for increased supplies , yet rather more money was demanded for all heavy qualities , with less disposition to force sales , and a fair extent of business was transacted , somewhat over the prices of last Monday generally , with an advance of Is to
2 a per quarter on choice white Dantsic and heavy red Rostock . Ship Flour was the tarn lower , with a slow sale . Barley was without alteration in value , good grinding being in moderate request . Malt was dull sale , but prime qualities were not lower . Beans were taken off at last week ' s prices . Peas met a moderate demand , at quite as much money ; Imperial Blues for Scotland realising high prices . There was a very dull sale for Oats , the large dealers holding off ; the demand is mostly confined to the consumers , who secured what they wanted 6 i to Is per quarter under last Monday's currency . Linseed continues scarce and dear . Kapeseed much the same as last week in value , and taken in small quanties by the seedsmen . Mustard was in short supply , and about the same in price .
London Sjhthfxeld Market , Monday , Sep . IS . —Owing to the supply of Beasts on sale in to-day ' s tnaket being great , and of very superior quality * the . weather-liufayourable fo slaughtering , and the attendance of dealers limited , the Beef trade was excessivel y dull , at an abatement in the currencies noted ou Monday laBt of from 2 d . te 4 d . per 81 b . and a large portion of the arrivals left the market unsold . From Scotland , we received 200 Scots , and 400 Sheep fresh up by steam-packets . Although the numbers of Sheep offering were limited , the inquiry for them was in a sluggisn state , but no depression was submitted to in the quotations , the primest old Downs being held at 5 s . per 8 : b . As the Lamb season may now be considered over , we havo discontinued to make any distinction between the prices of Lamb aud Mutton j Calve ? were amending , and 4 d . per 81 b . cheaper . In Pigs scarcely anything doing , and the rates were 2 d . lower .
