ket The demand for Boston and other Eastern towns
continues. About GOO went that way IRON Albany
this week.
The sales here every day since last Wednesday have
been unusually lively, and 80 they have at bergen
and he stables downtown, when IN SOME measure
accounts for the fact that few butchers are seen
here TODAY Last week the panic was aciong the
cases equally unnecessary and fool n.

Il is cool enough TO make WOODEN clothing not al al

pRoKER's COMMISSION.
4 case Of difficulty has occurred this week about
the night of bIOker 20 commission under certain CIR
cumsiances according 10 the usage OF the trade, IN
the absence of all laws upon the matter, and we are
requested by several drovers 10 state the rules Tor the
information Of strangers who may ship stock TO this
market. .
If You consign your cattle to brokeri directing him
10 receive paw freight, and make saies and after
ward come on Yourself and sell them ct wholesale, in
depeniert of tie broker he is entitled to commission
for selling without guaranty. lhs commission ranges
from 81 10 81 head, according to circumstances III
you should arrive with drove and apply 10 broker,
and he should assist you abopt getting your cstte off
the cars and paying freight, and advise you about
selling and you should then sell a, wholesale, he would
be entitled TO commission.
Tie case of diff Guilty is this: Bennett X ieoman's
drove arrived at Bergen. where Woman was met by
NJ. Phillips who asked him if he wanted broker to
sell his cattle lie replied, Yes; if don't whole
sale them, as l talk of dong-having had an oher
from Geo. A. Tofey at Dunlirk.' lie then promised
TO give Phillips the selling of them if he did not sell
at wholesaler and he says Phillips gratuitousy offered
advice and offered TO advance money TO pay hands,
neither OF which he accepted, nor any aid from him,
but that he shortly after closed the trade partly agreed
upon with 1ofey and delivered the cattle; whereupon
Phillips demanded commission, which was refused, at
which he attached two OF the cattle.
Now if leoman's and others statements are correctly
given phiins il clearly in the wrong and will be the
loser as those who would give him custom will fear
that he tricky Let him and others be assured that
"honesy is the best policy"
Toffey is selling the above drove at 96yac. to-day,
which will not afford much proht. We believe he
paid $50 head.
