We have had another market satisfactory
to droytrs than that of last week far
tive prices are concerned. So many cattle are still
ON the market that purchased at the high rates
current in May snd June, that there are more losses
than profits. The state of the market al the first
opening ON Tuesday gave hopes to owners Of good
cattle that better time had come for them and GER
tsnly all the first sales Of the best stock made
st better rates than last week; then the market grew
dull, duler, and before night was quite dead. Ii
ives as bad all day il could be for the ordinary
grade Of cattle, Of which the supply was altogether
to- large. Not one-sixth of the cattle yarded were
more than decent stock for feeding aud many of them
we're not even that. The weather was all tnst could
be eSired in favor Of the droyer Blu, for that cir
cums,ance there would have been, We think, gen
eral decline of about hall cent pound upon al be-
low the very best
the clote Of the market on Tuesday, there sp.
pearel 10 be general feeling that this would be .
hard day for all OF cattle of the lowest grade
such as are only fit 10 so to the graziers none of
whom appeared to want more stock at any price.
Wednes day opened clear and almost cold enough to
snake us semble for the corn crop, whics N this vi
entity is very backward; very little Of il being in
roasting ears Bu; this is favorable weather fer
killing and handling beef fact which saves the
mssket tiom utter prostration, although there is
veIy large proportion Of stock only ut for barrelins
for which there is no demand.
The trade of Tuesday afternoon having been very
ssck partly, as the statesmen supposed, in e1nse
quenoe Of the absence of many butchers a, 1.-THE
uo;,' and partly, as We think, in consequence Of the
efforts Of the brokers to advance prices which had the
eject Of determining of the buyers to go home
ana quietly await the chances of To- day These cir
cuustanees bad the effect Of giving the market more
animation THE E,oTDiog, frem which stranger might
have snp oosed that was good deal better thsn last
week Our report of saes Of various droves vii show
whether this opinion IS correct. In Judgment We
must saw that the market to-day is something Ike 81
head, upon all Cattle ceiling at asc. pound worse
foY the owners thsn il was yesterday and than
that .um worse than last week; but The decline is
greater upon the estimation OF weight which always

A Coop PROSPECT IN OHIo.-It is a
rare thing that any nomination gives the
universal satisfaction that that of Judge
Ranney for Governor seems to give in
Ohio. The whole democratic press are
not only enthusiastic over it, but the OPP
position concede that he is far the stron-
gest man the democracy could have bro't
forward. 1t is to be hoped that he will
succeed. Chase's majority in 1855 was
1850; in 1857 it was but 1921. The
black republicans cannot again bring out
man of his strength, and, besides this,
the thunder which they expected to make
out of the Oberlin casos for use in the
campaign has been very suddenly squelch-
ed by their own Supreme Court. The
result of the ensuing campaign certainly
promises fair, bet. Free Press.

SIGNIFIcANr.-A few days since the
Legislature of Rhode Island assembled,
when, there having been no choice of
Lieutenant Governor by the people, an
election was had in joint convention, with
the following result: Sanders, "Ameri-
can-republican," 76; Brown, democrat, IL |;
Hill, straight republican, 8. Here we
have the whole thing in nutshell. The
pure, unadulterated black republicans of
New England stand in exactly the pro-
portion to the know nothing black repub-
lican Of to 20. Is not this fact signifi-
cant? And yet the black republican sheets
deny that their party have any thing to
do with know-nothingism in New Eng
land, and that it was the American-re-
publicans" who voted for the Massachu-
sets amendment o, Peter, Peter, why
do you deny your masterl
bet. Free Press.

THE MISSISSIPPI FLOOD OF 1867
The effects of the great spring inunda-
ton in Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkan-
sas are disastrous in the extreme. A cor
respondent Of the New Orleans Crescent
has picked up some statistics on the sub
ject from actual inspection. In letter
from Vicksburg, May 18th, he particular
lies a number of plantations still under
water, making an aggregate of over So
600 acres of tho finest cotton lands, on
which scarcely bale win be made the
present year. The whole of Warren Co.,
lying above Vicksburg, and between the
bluffs and river, is submerged. Not an
acre of dry land is to be seen in the bot
tom. The entire valley of the Yazoo riv-
or is under water, not an acre having been
in sight since the'middle OF March. The
famous Deer Creek bottoms, noted for
their productiveness, are overlooked for q
distance of sixty miles. The loss of crops
and damage to planters is immense. The
plantation of Senator Douglas is among
the inundated.
