BaeTHE BUroHERs AND THE MARKET.-4Ass
our readers have seen by the council pro-
ceediugs, the matter of raising the rent Of
the butchers and hucksters' stalls has been
8 under consideration for some time. On
Friday evening the council raised the rents
of the stalls in the market houses about
forty per cent, at which some of the butch
ers and hucksters were yesterday consid
cradle put out, and declared they would not
rent the stalls at the increased rates. The
arguments used by those who opposed the,
increase were, that cattle of all kinds were
exceedingly scarce in this neighborhood on
account of the immense idemauds of the
Government, and that butchers doing bus
iuess in our markets, had gone as far as
Chicago aud Cincinnati in search of beef
cattle ; that the increase ofthe stall rents
would neces sarily increase the price of
meats. Those in favor of the increased
rates, however, were in the majority-and
insisted that the rents were too lows that
the butchers were making money aud pay
ing less rent than other merchants who do
half the business.

NEW YORK, April 8-The Post learns
that on the 4th, Gen. Foster Was at Little
Washington with a brigade, regiment of
NoEth carolina troops, and some other
troops, virtually surrouudedby rebels who
nave erected batteries on Tar river between
NeWbern aud Little Washington. The
naval force of wooden gunboats are unable
to pass.
1t is understood battle has taken place
between Foster and the rebels, but moth
ing definite is known. Heavy firing has
been heard lasting from Wednesday night
to Friday night, evidently from rebel bat
teries.
Fosters means of defense are deemed
ample, he having a fort aud entertainments
with sufficient ammunition and provisions.
Large achievements are in tranports be-
low the batteries, but Rre unable to reach
Foster for want of some naval force COM
petent to take them. 1t was reported that
Foster had sent to Fort Monroe some time
since for naval reinforcemeuts. 1t was
expected troops would come from Suffolk.
