Markels.— To ſtate the amount, of all the various articles produced from the ſoil, ſold for the uſe of the inhabitants of London, would be entering into too extenfive a field,

and will be done to more advantage by thoſe, who undertake,

to draw up a general view of the metropolis. It may be ſuf-

ficient to remark, that the conſumption of London is fup- poſed to be about 110,000 head of cattle, and 730,000 ſheep. It may be proper to add, that any perſon deſirous of look- ing at a great variety of ſtock, cannot ſpend a few hours to more advantage, than in examining the market at Smith- field. He will there ſee, that for want of attending to the breeds of neat cattle and ſheep, TIHIATALAROE PRO- PORTION OF THE HERBAGE OFE ENGL.AND IS WASTED, IN PRODUCING BONES AND OFPAL, INSTEAD OF MEAT. Is it therefore to be wonderedat, that provifions are dear? What a field here preſents itſelf, foe national Wealth and public improvement? Surely the time is not far diſtant, when the diſcoveries of intelligent men, fanctioned by repeated experiments, will overturn every ancient prejudice, and when nothing but truth will prevail, in regard to points, of fuch real importance, to the general intereſts of the community.

Price Proviſions. The price of proviſions in the county of Middleſex, in general, is much the ſame as in the city of Condon. In the remoter villages, milk is retailed at the rate of 5 inſtead of 6 farthings, per pint; but other ar- ticles are much the ſame. Beef and mutton generally run, from 5d. the coarſer pieces, to 7d. per pound the choicer.

Pork and veal from 6. to 84. and lamb at 64.. 14 02. to che pound. The bread is regulated by thee city magiſtrates,

in proportion to the price of wheat, and is generally rea-

onable, and of good quality. The price of butcher's meat is higheſt in the ſpring months. All kinds of vegetables are dearer, in proportion, than animal food. Poultry
