There were about $50 cattle cent East from Albany

Tn. retail sales at Bergen were nearly oil Monday
and Tuesdsy--.te stock there aod here and at the
down town stables was all cleared out on Saturday.
Contrary 70 the repeated assurances of Mr. Alerton

good many sold here On Sunday this week. Rumor
say. Mr. A. was interested. We hope ru nor hes, anc
