after the poor market quoted last week. and some
what in excess of the demand. The approach Of
Lent, the heavy receipts of sheep, and live hogs
and of dressed meats. and the low price of poultry
have all tended to produce a dizziness in the live
stock trade of late, and. of course. a falling of in
the demand for beef. Prices this week have ruled

still continues. Most of the animals offered con-

not sought by milkmen. Under the slack demand
now prevailing, prices have, of course, declined

The WOOL Markets.

PHILADELPHIA. Feb. II.
From the Wool circular of Diehl Il Walker, da-
tad February 10th. we quote as follows:
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Nirginia.-Choice Saxy-
ny fleece, T3@15; full blooded fleece, TOg72%-
three-quarter fleece, $500; half blood fleece. 659
IS; quarter blood fleece, 62@65; common fleece, 81
ass.
The wool trade for the first three weeks in jan
uary, was active and the prices well maintained.
The market has been quiet since that time, man
ufscturers buying only for immediate use. There
is, however, no disposition to force sales, holders
continue to await demands, particularly for finer
grades.
The present ~quietness will be broken. and the
demand at least increased with the demand for
goods for Spring trade. which is already commenc-
ing. The amount of foreign wooden goods imp ort-
ed for sale, may effect the domestic de nands for
Spring trade, Thieh may cause wool to move slow,
but we believe prices for Yool will be well main
tanned until We reach the new clip, which IS nearly
four months hence.

NEW YORK., Feb. 1.-THE market is heavy for
both domestic and foreign. and prices are some

Letter from Washington.

WASHINGTON, d. c. Feb. 18th, 1856.
EDITOR CHRoEIcLE:-A friend told me-
that while walking down Pennsylvania
Avenue a few evenings ago. he heard 6
partially reconstructed man thus soliloqui
zing to himself-I omit the oaths; "A
nice thing thisI A pretty Congress! Fix
IN things up at a great ratel Fifty-siz
years old and 8 niger as good as a white
man." No doubt this man uttered the
sentiments of a greater portion of the
old residents of this city, and the people
in the Southern States. They have no
faith In Congress, and are anxious for the
admission of the Southern members and
for the South once more TO come into
power, so that they can again feel things
moving on under their despotic rule.
But I trust this shall never be, the South
are a conquered people, and as such are
only entitled to such privileges as the
loyal people of the country can give them
without again bringing discord and con-
tention among us.
Last Sabbath evening, the fourth and
last anniversary of the q. S. Christian
Commission was held in the Hall of the
House of Representatives, which was
crowded to its utmost capacity, by a dis
tinguished and enthusiastic audience.
Among those present were Chief Justice
Chase, Lieutenant General Grant, Score
tary Wells, Post Master General DENIM
son, and q large number of Senators and
Representatives. Speaker Colfax, Sena-
tor Doolittle, Rear Admiral Davis, Major
General Anger, Bishop Simpson and eth
ers addressed the audience. The evening
passed very pleasantly, andevery n went
home convinced that the q. s. Christian
Commission had done muSh towards ale
waiting the ~suferings of our gallant SOL
diers and sailors.
The ceremonies in memory of the
death of President Lincoln, took place at
the Capitol last Mono day afternoon, every
seat in the gallery, saFe only those re-
served for the Presidents and General
Grants families, was filed before eleven
O'Clock, and about that time the assem-
bling of those entitled TO seats on the
floor of the House began. Among the
celebrities present. were President john
son and Cabinet, the JUSTICES of the Su-
preme Court, Heads of Bureaus, and the
two Houses of Congress, among the army
officers, were Lieutenant General Grant,
Major Generals Butler, Logan, Curtis
and Hitchcock, among the navy officers,
were Rear Admirals Dahlgren, Davis and
Shubrick. The exercises were as follows:
Dirge, by the Marine Band; Prayer, by
the Rev. DR.. Boynton; Introductory adj
dress, by acting Vice President Foster.
The Grafton, by Hon. George Bancroft.
Mr.. Bancroft occupied nearly three hours
in delivering his eulogy, which was pro-
nouneed by all to be a very powerful
production. After the ceremonies in the
House were finished, the Marine Band
played the National Airs, in the Rotun.
da of the Capitol, and the crowd dis
persed.
a The Freedmen's Bureau bill was on
Tuesday, placed in the hands of the
President for his signature, and much in
Serest is felt as to his course concerning
it. 1t is no secret that he does not ap-
prove of allits provisions.
