on the nights OF Yorktown.
Our No. / battery of 100 and 200 Founders

gun which had given US any trouble; our shots
falling over and around it with every prospect of
its being very soon dismounted, when on its
twenty-third discharge the enemy's gun burst
into a thousand pieces. tearing up the parapet
and making havoc with the crowd who were col
lected around it. At the time no less than ten
persons were standing on the parapet within six
feet of it, besides those who were hid from view
by the works. The destruction of life must have
been considerable.
This was the only gun which the rebels have
shown capable Of doing No. l battery any harm.
All firing on their side ceased while our guns
were manned with renewed vigor, directing their
shells INTO the town.
About 100 shots were freddy our guns up t
2 O'Clock this afternoon, when all firing ceased.
A rebel steamer came down the river and at
tempted to land at Yorktown, but was prevented
by a few shots from our 100 FOUNDER Parrot.
The rebels kept up a continual FIRE all last

From the heavy receipts at Albany, it was an
ticipated that this market would be largely over
stocked, and that prices would decline, but the
tables show about LOO head less receipts this
week than we last reported, and it turns out that
the Eastern buyers took 1000 head of the Albany
stock while New York took only 9 $50 head of
the A, 700 head there offered.
The market opened on Monday with a fair
business, but prices are not equal to those Of
Tuesday and to-day by at least S2Cd5 per head;
about l 500 cattle were sold ON Monday, but
Tuesday was more active, and nearly all the
stock remaining in the yards from the sales of
Monday was sold at very full prices, which
showed an advance Of 25c per cwt. upon the rates
of last week.
This morning found the drove yards nearly
empty and the butchers who delayed their pur.
chases to this day found it very difficult to buy
anything decent.
The sales this week have averaged quite salts

with a good healthy tone.
The stock was Of better quality than that of
