O : — £Peb "Stab's" Pigeon Expbbss.J THIS DAY. The weather was favourable in every respect, and there was a large attendance. Owing to the large entry of Btore sheep, the butchers and others interested in the sale of fat stock had to submit to a vexatious delay of two hours and a half between the sales of veal and of lamb. Con siderable dissatisfaction was expressed* Store Sheep. — Over 5000' were yarded, including a line of sheep from the North Island. The demand for good sorts of young cross-breds remained firm, but the sale of merino wethers and old sheep was far from satisfactory, hardly any saleß being effected. The leading sales were as follow: — 1700 four and six-tooth and sound mouth ewes 12s 9d to 13s 9d, 840 two-tooth ewes and wethers 12s 6d to 12a Bd, six tooth cross-bred ewes 14a 3d, and some small tooths, mixed sexes, 10s Id to 12s. A number of store lamba were Bold at from 9s to 10s 6d. Fat Lambs. — The demand for good sorts for export was equal to late sales, and beßt lamba brought from 11s 6d to 14s 6d readily < Lighter lambs met with a ready sale, many being secured for topping off. Fat Sheep. — Only a moderate entry met with a very free sale, at prices folly on a par with recent sales, every line being sold, at current rateß. Some prime wethers from Mr Charles Hurst's Oakleigh estate realised the highest price this season, 17s being given for a grand pen of half-bred English Leicesters, and from 15s to 16s for three-quarter-bred wethers and maiden eweß. A further draft of Mr James Little's Allandale half-breds brought from 16a to 16s 6<J, being admittedly the best mutton sheep in the yards. Other lines of cross-bred and half-bred wethers and maiden ewes sold at from 13a 9d to 16s. The sale of dry cross-bred ewes was limited in extent and prices were much the same as at late sales ; a few pens of well-finished ewes brought from 12s 6d to 15s 3d. Only a sprinkling of merino wethers was sub mitted, and realised from 8a 6d to 11s 3d, a few pens of better sheep realising above this.
