SrARvArroN AMONG CArrLr.-From a

STARVATION AMONG CATTLE.-From all
points of compass we hear Of the starvation
of cattle. Some Farmers who had a large
supply Of stock, last Fall, and feed to meet
the deInandas they supposed, are now with.
out either. In Ohio, Michigan In.!iana,
Western New York and many other States
stock have died and are still dying. BY a
private letter received from Riohland Gen.
ter, this State, we learn that scarcity pre-
walls there also. Many Farmers now hav-
ing resorted to telling trees that their cat
tie may get the buds and twigs. 5:
Another difficulty will arise at the incom.
ing Of grass. Cattle win partake Of it
greedily and unless farmers proceed eau.
tiously, the remainder Of their stock will die.
We are having nine months winter. and
three months cold weather this year, sure.

The BALTMoRE OYSTER TRADE.-Ihe
Baltimore Sun furnishes in relation to the
Oyster trade of that city which will aston
ish the reader. 1t ys,the trade employs
800 vessels, with crews and others engag-
ed, amounting to 5000 men. We copy
ofthe Sunsarticle :rls M -- $50
The whole quantity of oysters brought
to the city during the year, ito the close
of the season, the 10Th ult. reachedaup to
about 1850, 900 bushels. Of these abvu,
100000 bushels are packed in the raw
state, 100000 bushels preserved, and the
100000 bushels are consumed
in the city. The cost OF oysters to the
packer is about fifty cents per bushel, or
an aggregate Of $4,000, the principal
part Of which is retained in the city for
supplies, and the amount paid to the
shuckens is about Sl75,000, besides all
other expenses incurred before the article
is shipped. The business WAS began only
about twenty years ago, and will 10 the
|course Of a few years, as the market at the
West increases, become one OF tue most i'm
lportant branches Of trade. Connected
with this trade is that If shell lime, which
now goes up to about 500, 900 bushels pei
|annum. A large amount Of capital lie in
Ivested d, and there is probably no other sin
gle branch Of business that gives employ
inert TO as many persons.
