REMARKS on BEEF CATTLE.-The market this
morning lacked animation, and prices of last week
were scarcely realized. Some quote a decline of
Nc. per h., but we think the reduction, if any,
is hardly sufficient to warranta change Of quota
tons. Some fine Steers sold as high as l3c., but
few sales were made over 12@l2Hc.
Mich Cows.-The quality has much improv-
ed. which considered, although our prices are uu-
changed. yet the markell is lower, rs the stock is
better; sales at tS0GG5.
VEALs.-IIave improved a triae; the sales arc
mainly at 4@7c.
