From the large amount of beef. mutton, &c. we had seen about the market of Warner Bro., We were led to enquire regarding the number of beeves, calves, and lambs they had butchered this sumner.
 We find that since March 1st, they have slaugh- tered ls6 calves, 77 beeves, I'll Lambs, 10 say nothing of poultry. Now, at less than an ave- rage price in the cities for beef, there must have been toward s50OO paid out for meat in this town, during the past six months. Would any believe from this that Li,chtieId could have been, up to the present time, without market Yet such is the fact, and for the first time since we recolect, (and we have been in the habit of visit ing here the last ten years,) we have market abundantly supplied, and we'll attended by cour- teous and sober men
 We hope that our citizens will remember these facts and the exer,ions of the Messrs. Warmers to give us market-that they gave meat when it was hard work to supply their stalls, and will continue to do so, so long as sufficient encourage iuen. is granted them to go ahead.
