CHRIBTOHCBOH, Bay 18 There were medium entries m most of ths claßßCßat Addingbon stoeW ny*»~ket Mp ßiVyt and a vary good attendance.

" ' ■•'•" '' % - Fat Cattle. —The entry of beef was mado up of 226 head, the bulk good useful steer* and heifers. The supply was m excess 'if the demand and this caused a slaoknesar m bidding, and where business was done it w*« at a Blight reduction on laafa week's prices, except for the Very' primeat.

Fat Sheep.— There was a good yarding and aomo very good lines of wetherg and maiden ewes, but the trade ewes contained a large proportion of aged and inferior animate. Duting'the earlier part of the sale, the butchers were m competition, with export buyers for best wether*, and this had the effect of hardening the market consider ably, bttt later ot>, when trade requirements : were satisfied, a slightly easier tons waa manifest, and the maiket closed at about l&sb week's fates. The market for ewes was slightly easier. The market for this class the previous week received 'a-good~ rleal of buoyancy from the competition of three outßide buyers. Yesterday the busi ness was entirely m the hands of the local lro.de and buyers for preserving. The sale was somewhat irregular, and t'-.watda the close a decided drop took place for anything not prime. Fat we* hers 12* 7d to 17a 9d, maiden eweß lls 61 to 15a Bil, mixed wethers and maiden ewes 10a Id to 13s 3d, best trade ewes 10s to 13a, inferior to good 03 to 8a 6d. Fat Lambs. — There was a good entry for fat lambs, inoluding some very good sorts for freezing. Best finished about held their own, buc other classes were weaker.
