AUCTIONEERS' REPORTS.

TIMAEU. Messrs Maclean and Stewart report for the past week ending Saturday us follows ; Horses—At their yards to-day a small entry was received for sale, and with one or two exceptions, the lots offered were light and inferior draughts, and a few fair hackneys. They have to report a slight improvemant in the demand for good draughts, and several buyers had to leave their yards to-day without getting the horses they required, in consequence of the few good sorts offering. For inferior draughts and ordinary hacks, there is still but little enquiry. They sold by auction to-day a team of 4 very fair draught geldings, together with their harness and. wagon at LI 20 for the lot; altogether they disposed of 20, at the following pricesFrom L 26 to £3O for good draughts ; from £l7 to £2O for medium sorts ; hacks, from £8 to £l4. Cattle.—There is still but little improvement in the prices offering for store cattle, and unless for well-grown steers and heifers, there is but little enquiry. A considerable number of all kinds were entered for sale at the Washdyke Yards last Monday, and a fair proportion found purchasers. They sold about 60 head at the following prices:—Cows, from L2 to L 4 10s well-forward steers and heifers from L 3 to L 5 ; calves at from 17s 6d to 20s. At Winchester last Thursday, few cattle came forward for sale, and the sale was the dullest which has taken place there for some time back. They have no transactions in cattle of importance to report at Thursday's sale. Fat cattle—The price of these at present for prime beef may be quoted at 20s per lOOlbs. They have placed a few small lots at prices equal to the above quotations.
