From the New York Journal of Commerce.
New York ns a Game Market

We question whether there is a market in
the world supplied with as great variety Of
wild game as the city Of New York. Not only
do the vast regions of the West and Canadas
afford their contributions, but wherein they
fail, Europe is drawn upon to make up the de.
fciency. All descriptions ofgood game brought
TO market are readily bought up.
Venison may be placed at the head Of the
list Of choice game. The carcasses are gene
rally forwarded from different points at the
West in frozen state, and meet with ready
sale.
Woodcock brings the highest price OF any
bird brought to market, and is to be had from
the lst of July to about the lst Of December.
1t is estimated that about 10000 are brought
to the city during the season, Of which 5000
are received at Fulton market. Prices range
from 40 cents to 81 per brace, and average say
rs cents
Partridges or pheasants are seen from Sep
tember to the 5th Of January, when their sale
is prohibited by law. Like the Woodcock, this
choice bird is to be found in all the surround.
ing country, but especially in the Eastern
States. At least 800 are brought to the city
per day, or say $4,000 during the four months ;
average price IS cents.
Quals bring from s. so to $3.50 per dozen
during the fall months, but during the winter,
when they may be tracked on the snow, they
are taken in immense quantities in the Western
States, and brought to the city by tons; average
price, 81 per dozen.
Grouse and Prairie hens came exclusively
from the West. In winter they are very
abundant, when they are trapped in grevt
numbers, and sell as low as so cents to 81 per
pair. 1t would be impossible to compute the
number brought to the city, but one dealer in
Fulton Market has bought at one transaction
to the amount of Sl,l00.
Hares are to be found in Canada, and some
few in this State; also, in Rhode Island. In
winter their their skin is perfectly white. This
animal is not as highly esteemed here as in
England. Price, about so cents per pair.
About 5000 are annually brought to the city,
mostly from the British provinces The small
gray rabbit is quite plentiful all around us, and
probably some 10000 are brought to market
in the season. Average price 37A cents a
pair
Wild Ducks Canvass back ducks are
undoubtedly the best game Of this variety any
Daily national era. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1854, 1854-05-26

where to be found. Those Of the right flavor
come from the Susquehana and Potomac
rivers where they feed on the wild celery, and
in the latter part Of November, and all through
December, are fat and fine. They last until
late in the spring. Probably 10000 are brought
to this city, many are sent to Europe in the
steamers Princes range from 81 to $3 per
brace. Red head ducks use pretty much the
same food, and are highly esteemed by epicures.
Many of them are killed on Long Island. They
average from rs cents to 81 per pair. Wild
geese are very abundant. Some seasons proba-
bly, 5000 to 5000 are killed for this market, and
bring on an average, 81 per head. Brant are
probably the best salt water duck. We have
them in the spring and fall from Long Island,
and sometimes, during the winter, from the
south. They are of delicate construction,
and are unable to endure the cold Of northern
climate. About 5000 are sold here, at from
Is cents to So pair. In May they are very
fat, and the best duck at that season. The
mallard is another very fine duck, found on our
this market The black duck, widgeon and
broad bill, abundant in our waters, especially
on the seashore, are scarcely inferior in quality.
They are to be found in the market from fall
until late in the spring About 10000 are
annually sold here, at an average of so cents
to 62A cents per pair. We also receive from
Virginia, during the winter months, an immense
quantity of Virginia or gray duck, which are
very fine. About 10000 come to this market.
The blue and green tail is another duck in
much demand, and Of which about 5000 are
received.
Plover and Snipe.--Of this tribe there are
some six or eight kinds, and there are proba-
bly, 10000 dozen sold here during the year.
AT least 10 to Is per cent. of all the game
attempted to be brought to this market, is lost
on its way, either from changes in the weather,
or ignorance on the part of those forwarding
it. The latter often neglect to take proper
precaution in packing, to see that all the natu-
raj or animal heat is first removed. Unless
this is done, the flesh is sure to change.
Wild Pigeons are very abundant at some
seasons. There have arrived here in one day
1000 dozen, and they sell from so cents to
ST. so per dozen. The average number sold
here each year is estimated to be $4,000 dozen,
though the quantity varies widely in different
years. One dealer in Fulton market has re-
ceived sixty barrels, or l,500 dozen, in a single
day, which had been caught in this State and
Pennsylvania, and were forwarded over the
Erie railroad.
The European trade in American game is
extensive, as the steamers afford rapid and
prompt means Of transportation. Large guam
titles of canyass-back ducks are sent out, as
nothing like it is to be had abroad. On the
other hand, we import English pheasants,
Scotch grouse, and occasionally few hares.
