The first of the series of spring fairs was held on Thursday last, and was well attended by dealers and other purchasers. The number and the quality of the stock in the market was a little below par, though we understood that considerable business was done on the previous evening when some good lots of geld beasts and bullocks were sold. A fair clearance was effected, and considerable briskness was manifest in the bullock trade, all kinds and ages going off at higher prices than have ruled for the 1st three months. There was a good demand for calving cows, and the few shown brought good prices, Bullocks up to a year old brought from £6 to £8, and a stronger class from £10 to £13, geld cows and heifers from £10 10s to £17; and calvers from £19 to £24. ____________________________________________________________________________________
