INFORMATION FOR BrTCHERs.-These worthy fellow
citizens of ours being of very industrious turn Of nind
do not find time read the daily papers and consequent
ly they arc perfectly obvoas of the fact that the price Of
beef cne has fallen from average OF pound TO
81 or oc Being under that for their customers very un-
fortunate haucnator Of mind, they continue TO charge
about the same price for roast steak that they did two
months MO- We know il will be pleasure to them to
learn this n;or sting fact Of such important decline in
the price Of cattle which hope their customers will not
fail TO communicate 10 them as soon as possible.
umav be as well TO remember that ten or fifteen thou
sand sheep and lambs week arriving rather has
tendency to cheaper the price and IT is barely possible

IupoRrED Rocurs-The following affidavit was made
in the Mayors office yesterday by Captain Brandt,
who. we learn has sailed between THE port and
Antwerp as sailor mate and captain for twelve
years. II reveals curious of things. but TO the
initiated tho fact that criminals systematically i'm
poed TO this country from the continent, has long been
known. No longer ago than last fall three noted crmi
pals from Germany were arrested in this City by Officer
Bell who did his best TO compel their return but failed in
attaining his object.
The records Of the Emigrant Police show great pre-
rondorance Of crime upon German shps More Germans
complain 70 the Mayor of having been robbed during their
passage to this country than do the natives of any other
nation This Wholesale expectation Of criminals may IN
some measure account for the fact.
