COMMERCIAL.

On Wednesday, the 7th inst., in the Glover Eoad yards, we held our usual fortnightly sale. Scarcely the number of stock advertised came forward, and the attendance was smaller than usual. Although- there is a great demand for cattle, w.otttd-be purchasers were not prepared to pay the prices demanded of them, thus causing several lines to be passed in at the hammer; but, with the exception of fat stock, most lines changed hands before leaving the yards. We quote : 2 to 21year steers, £3 19s to £4 6s % fat cows and heifers, £3 12s 6d to £4 3s ; heifers in calf, £3 5s to £3 10s j 18-month heifers, 41s to 425. Sheep— Hoggets, woolly, 18s.
