New York Cattle Market.

AT ALLERTON's WASHINGTON DR0vGYARD.
The number of cattle at market since last has
terisy increased; but the other hand the demand
has been slow. Owing to the present high prices pur
chasers not disposed to into the market
to supply immediate wants. the impression being that
next week prices WiA be dow TO something like
sonable standard. me weather also contributes
very stiff and not disposed to yield much. Tha
Of the market may be quoted at S4 100
lbs Some few transactions said to have been made
at fraction above that figure It was thought that
200 or 800 head would remain unsold. Cows and
calves steady. Veal plenty, and rather lower Sheep
and lambs rather Swine plenty and cheap The
warm weather affects the market unfayorably.

The hum Of thousand wheels in our car,
Like some old ponderous gong
The sledge-hammer ringing alarms IN INC Rla'e
The Vroan of a press, as If burdened with care,
The tramp OF the iron horse, ieeter than air
And his laundering snort, heard everywhere
It's but the orchestra that eer
Accompanies their song
Men of the brawny arm are we,
Men not ATTAINED OF labor
Tho clouds may sometimes veil our face,
unr heart shines through, in smiles that chase
The darkness from our nelghbor.
We are the men that forge the bars
That link the town and lea;
Where engines rushing through the vale
Our children, racing with the gale
Are shouting Justify!
The mighty ship that proudly rides
Over the restless deep,
Was reared by us her noiseess wings
Bend 10 the evening breeze that sings
And rocks her into sleep!
The press, that throbbing heart, where beats
The pulse Of every thought
That clock of mind which strikes the hour
And nation rises in its power,
Without our aid is naught
The pen which, dipped in lightning, writes
At one stroke round the earth,
Meier staid by mountain, nor the river,
On whose broad face the sunbeams culver,
Owes to our hand its birth!
These thoughts make gladness in our hearts
Re-echo. like bell
And, like her voice who waits to greet us,
Or leads our little child to meet us,
More sweet than we may tell!
Then let the joyous song be heard;
Let all be filled with mirth;
Let il be known throughout the land.
That the members of our iron band
Are the happiest on earth!
The sound that fingers in our ear,
Like some old ponderous gong
Is but the orchestra that e'er
Accompanies their sOng
