DAL/EMU FAlL—This annual market for the
sale of feeding and wintering cattle took place yesterday,
when the number brought forward was fully an average of
former years, though in point of quality much inferior, a
great many being of a sort of which no person could define
the breed. Such lots as were forward in condition, either
short-borne, crosses, or Aberdeenshire, found purchasers,
though at a great reduction on the prices obtained at the
same market last year, varying according to the quality from
15 to 20 per cent. The best lot of short-horns that appeared
in the market are said to have brought nearly 12/. each, and
one or two other lots are said to have commanded 101.,
although the greater proportion of the two year olds of that
breed brought on a descending scale from 81. to 61.,
and stirks of the same description from 41. to 51., whilst
the inferior portions of all ages were selling at from
5/., down to 305., and at nightfall a great number of the latter
description of stock were left over unsold. It may be ob-
served that some of the best lots shown were labouring un-
der murrain, and consequently their original value was
greatly deteriorated. The show of horses was considerable,
and although good draught horses brought prices correspond-
ing with former markets, inferior animals were very unsale-
able ; the same remarks are applicable to those used for the
saddle.— Scotsman of Wednesday.
On Sunday evening, as W. H. Kenny, J.P., of
Rocksavage, in the county of Blonagan, was passing from
his drawing•room into the hall, he was fired at from without,
and his shoulder grazed by two or three Lshots. Several
other allots were found in the hall. •
