Louisville, Ky
The Louisville Journal learns from a city
packer who has been travelling in the country,
that 81 so is offered for hogs gross.
Cincinnati, Ohio
The Cincinnati Price Current ofthe 81 says:
Rather brisk business has been done in
hogs during the past week, aul about Il, COO
head have been sold for future delivery, en-
bracing this and next month, at 5 62@5 70.
and at the close there was Iri-k de-
mand, and all offered were taken at the latter
price, with more disposition TO contract for De-
cember than November delivery, at the quo
taton. We cannot say that the market has
been strong, however, as large offerings and
desire to sell. on the part of holders, would
have caused buyers to withdraw, as was the
case about the middle Of the week. when there
were more sellers thai buyers at 5 60. There
are about 2 600 head in the pens. aud $40 were
cut up by one house on Friday, but the wealth.
er is too warm and unsettled to slaughter with
safety; but all the houses are ready, and are
waiting for the weather tor settle down TO a
safe temperature. There is quite large num-
Der of hogs now in the vicinity of the city,
so that operations will in all probability open
generally within the coming ten days. The
feeling as regards the future is in 5avOr of COM
paratively high prices. and the impression is
pretty generally entertained, that owing to the
abundance of money speculative feeling will
keep prices up to = high average notwithstsnd-
ing there should be an increase in the num-
Der packed. I
