Jay, JGu. LITTLE market to-day is by no Leans -
good for drovers il was this day week. The sup
oily will not number over $500 head, aud large
uros ortion of the cattle light steers, not fat OF
c.are oxen, tie number of really good bullocks
being quite smalI and, consequently, owners antci-
pated getting prices equivalent to cents pound for
the meat, sinking oAal, but in this they disap-
pointed az 81 cents appears 10 be the top price that
butchers are willing to give; and We lear some OF
them saying that they can buy as good stock "a
there IL in the market at 8 cents. The medium
grades are selling uncOmmonly slow at 0Sc., and
buyers generally want about hall hundred weight
the advantage Of sellers. The only life about the
trade Is in the mos, inferior qualify, st about the
rates tho ma ket closed last week-.hat is, 5!a
&c ib net, or, generally, cent pound lower
than tie grade sold at ir tie early part OF Lat
Tuesday. Every sales complains OF the exces-
siye dnllness OF business, which is fully proved by
the smsll number OF bullocke sold before noon. IL
is true TINT trade was somewhat hindered BIZ some
Of the trains not getting their cattle into the
yards until nearly noon, and probably also by the
excessive co!dnoss OF the weather which kept back
buy eTe from CON NJ market and inclined those al
ready bsre to Bironzo the tarioOms rather than the
saie-yards. AZ it became clear aud lngst about
noon, and really locked warmer, trade was better in
the sfterncOn but by no meals averaged a. good as
Last Tuesday and closed at dark with more stock in
the yards than will Do likely to cell "Wednesday
at She prices CT to-day. ITO city has been 50 very
full Of cheap poultry, that the sse Of butchers meats
has undoubtedly been checked, sDd the Wholesale
butchers nave not mach heart to buy largely for cold
and good weather TO hang meat as IL ia to-day,
they lave some sors recollection 81 TIE charge
last week, from just snch weather as tss, to days Of
warm, thi fog II sure that the cid would con-
inue, the Wholesale would buy 20 literally that
the price would DO g. - head better than il IL
to-day. The Hog market is still crowded to its ut
most capacity, ard railroads full Of hogs that
cattle have been kept back. Tie Sheep market is a
little better for droyen than it MAS week ago, the
supply being lighter.
