With an Increase Of % per cent in the number OF
bulocks over last week is not surprising that there
should be slight depression of prices in the lower
GRADES but it is surprising that the depression did not
reach the best class as wen as the worst but we do
not Think it DID, aud only in limited degree were the
pdces Of any Of the stock lower than they were
week ago, and this not so much in consequence of
increased numbers, as in decreased quality.
The number of frst-class bullocks was so limited
that owners held them pretty stiff at prices estimated
equivalent to 10 cents pound for the beef, and OWING
to the fact of the day being very fine one, not at oil
hot and cattle looking well they sold for an estimate
of weight equal to ell they would yield.
There was al ample supply of beef to-day for the
market but il was not Of as good quality as the Gus
TONERS of our frst.class butchers have of late been
accustomed to and willing to pay for and that Is
the reason why the best cattle readily bring the
high prices they do to-day.
Within two or three years the standard OF quality
suitable for this market has been very much advanced
We frequently notice men that formerly would buy
the yerriest scallawags that will not touch any
thing but such cattle as would pass fair muster II not
win the prize in a fat cattle show And we notice
another thng-that drovers often losers upon poor
cattle, and very rarely are upon good ones. We
recommend green hands 10 remember this fact.
Its worthy of very particu notice that the high
prices maintained to-day not owing to the specu-
lators, or monopoly, or anything in the shape OF an
oneratiop for rise because ths bulk of the stock Is
in the hands of the brokers, who selling on com.
mission, anc who would operate directly against those
who were trying 10 force up the price above what the
laws Of demspd and supply would warrant. The
statement Of this fact is due to the commission men,
who are often charged when they happen to own the
cattle, with being the cause of the high price.
Several graziers are in the market to-day on the
lookout for cheap buocks so that with slight fall
ing of on the part of butchers they wosd come IN
direct competition with men who are ANXIOUS for
stock 10 eat their surplus grass IL is therefore,
probable that no cattle will be left at sundOwn uRsod.
The sales this week at Albany for Eastern markets
were about $50 lie ad, but the buyers seem unwilling
to pay much as the cattle are worth here.
DEATH OF LARGE BUTCHER
One of the incidents worthy Of note to-day was the
announcement Of the death of e1-Alderman WIN. ii.
Cornell principal of the firm Of w. ii. q L. u. Cor
nell who have frequently been noticed in our report
among the BUYERS Of the best cattle in market in lots
Of II TO IS head. They did business in Fulton Market
which viii probably be continued by the junior
partner Mr. Cornell has always been IN the buslness
we believe and must have been between 10 and %
years old.
The freight on the New-York Central and Hudson
River Railroads has been reduced this week to so per
from Buffalo to Albany and 80 car from Albany
10 New-YOrk. The boats on the Hudson River, which
have been charging 81 % head, We understand will
reduce the price 10 dollar as the present price by
less than the charge by boats, the cars carrying
II Ia l9 heads.

Tuesday week, came through at the reduced rates,
