The fight to-day between the " Bulls and Bears OF
the live stock market" was so evenly balanced, tina,
il was for some time difficult TO determine which would
csr,v their point In the morning there was strong
Effort On the part of the bulls TO toss up the price
above that of this day week and some of the weaker
portion of the bear family, that are not able to keep
On their legs without hanging on to the stronger AMI
mas, were compelled TO lend an unwilling AID
toward a slight advance of the price Ii
thew crowled at this, they were at once re-
minded that during the last week the bull ira
terpitv had been badly bitten by bear that
had pulled so hard that he had for the fourth time
pued himself down and they did Dot intend to be BIT
fen arain Some of them wish be had gone down
come Weeks" before he did Seriously, the price
of some Of the cattle sold this morning, though only
called BE-. in fact lust as much above that "a the
owners chose to ak such customers as are Obliged
TO pay for their credit, aud that gave the
in preston that prices were ranging goou
deal higher than last week but before noon
:, WAS discovered that some of the strongest bears
Of the market were consulting and combining together
10 bear down the price not buy anything more than
very limited supply. The consequence was, toward
noon an almost cessation of sales, and necessity oil
making prices more in accordance with the views OF
tie butchers who were willing to give l5c Tor the
FIR. class cattle, and more. The difficulty was IN
adjusting weights which was settled IN several IN
i -,
stances by agreeing to the butchers estimates OF 10
he ascertaned after killing
Taking al things into account cannot therefore,
believe that the price is anything more than shade
higher than il was last "Wednesday.
We learn. however, that after we left the yards in
the afternoon, prices rather improved, or at least did
not fall off and that all the cattle offered were sold,
and that the average sales Of the day are higher
than last Wednesday.
The average quality of the stock s not quite as
good as it was then, still it is not very bad. We did
not see a single yard OF real scaawags. 1t is worthy
Of note that the general average of quality this year
is far above that of any preceding year, ana tha no
market day passes without show OF some ahiulais
worthy of prize in any cattle-show.
The weather to-day is extremely favorable for bus
ness It's cloudy and cool enough for pretty stout
wooden clothing. 1t is good weather TO buy, KILL and
keep the meat and the custom OF the butchers Is -
| y cent more in such weather than upon right not
| sultry days.
| The supply this week has fallen OFF, but there is
quite cattle enough for the demand at present rates
o. there doubt the consumption has greatly de-
ceased: and lust ar this time We nave very abun-
bant supply Of Strawberries nj about the same price

rates beef might have attained TO- a. Il higher no"
on the average Of quality, ana ioi iehs vi 'e'

Drovers who bought cattle al fixed price some
months ago 10 be delivered called for at this season.
are now making money; but 10 man eau buy now, or
has bought lately with any certainty of getting tte
cost back again. And farmers should bear this fact
u mind, that continuance Of the present prices ""
20 diminish the consumption a. 10 allow the stock
largely increase, and they may therefore Judge now
ar that will 10 reduce the price. We do not an
cipate any material reduction very soon, because al
al average OF cent less very large number
would be at taken by the graZiers IN the coun-
ties north of this city and Connecticut, where pastu-
rage always good never was more abundant than It

One man who has a very large range Of pasture in
