Bulls HEAD-Ner- York Cattle Market, Tuesday,
April 23.-We find over a thousand head less buocke
in the salepens in FOrtyfourh street to-day than were
here last Tuesday, and a matter Of course an ad-
vance the price, which is equivalent TO about half
cent pound upon the net weight Of beef; and, al
though there s not much appearance Of life in the mar
ket think very large proportion OF the 66O head
yarded will be sold out to-day at the above average adj
vance, and nearly if not quite, the whole from "a 70
SIC. net pound. There about 300 head more ex-
pected in tonight, the most Of them from the New
Jersey Central Road which were reported by some ~
being already at EGzabebpot awaiting transportation
by boat the city, while Others thought they had been
detained at Harrisburg for army supplies. Atany rate,
their late arrival will probably prove OF no ad-
vantage 10 the owners while their expected arrival
tends 10 nure the sale Of those already here the price,
though higher than last week. is not as much 30
as the difference in numbers would warrant II there
was nothing in tie excited state of the times TO affect
the market. As lie, the supply appears adequate 70
the wants of the remarkably email number of butchers
on hand The quality Of the bulocks to-day compares
well with last week; that lie very remarkably good,
fat and heavy with scarcely any lean ones, or such 40
are not t for good fair retail beef while there are any
number such as always brought to eur frst-cass
butchers when TO be had.
The Wholesale butchers do not appear anxious to-day;
ihey are willing take the chances tomorrow, or not
buy at all. Retalers however, are willing 10 buy
pretty freely having the prospect of getting rid Of their
coarse beef on better than heretofore the packers
being quite ready to take all that is offered, notwith-
standing the warm weather, which to-day s hotter
than it has been any day this year. As the day ad-
vances into the afternoon the marketpsce has more
liva1v appearance than IL had all the morning.
