Pressed oaten hay, wetted in landing, brought from £8 ss. to £9 ss. per ton; maize, 6s. per bushel; oats, ss. 6d. to ss. 9d.: and bran, Is lid. At the Newmarket Yards, Thursday, a few head of fatted Auckland cattle were offered without any bidder being obtained.

The sheep ex ‘ Corio’ were sold to several buyers, at prices varying from 15s to 17s 6d each. Fat sheep were in fair supply, and without alteration in price.
