PITTSBURGH, March %

The supply of cattle on sale this week was
again mp 20 the usual average, the whole
number In the pens being estimated Mt from
eco to 1000 head and as the demand WINS re-
stricted almost entirely to supplying the
wants of the tetsiI trade, the market ruled n
little dull, though prices, compared with last
week, underwent no essential change There
was little or no inquiry on the part of ship
peTS, and we presume fifty head would be n
fair estimate of the number sold for that pur-
pose. The falling or iu the demand for
Shipments in consequence OF the uniavoEa-
BILE condition or the Eastern markets Last
week, and those who had cattle there then
lost money, and they have no idea of trying
1t again this week, for lear they might lgILin
meet similar fnte. The prices nInged tins
week at from TO $40 for common; to SIC
tormedium, and to 75Sc for prime TO extra.
Hogs continue dull and neglected, but as
the arrivals continue light, prices, in retail
way, remain about as last week, ranging
from 81 TO 101Zc for fair 10 good average
limerick & Co. bought 20 head from Ulery,
averaging about lG0, at S1zc, and Patterson
sold limerick & Co. 81 head, averaging about
$50, at SIC. 1t Is worthy of remark that the
great proportion of the hogs now coming IN
are light, averaging from l2O TO 90h ms.
SheeP-There was fair retail demand lor
sheep this week, and while the market was
apparently more active and shade nr1ner,
prices, as compared with last week, have un-
dergone no material change, ana fair 10 prime
fat mutton sheep may be fairly quoted at
69Ic gross, and common at 59514c. Ianefty

Kerwin & Co. retailed 81 head ut S696 10, and

Choice and desirable styles OF foreign dress
goods command fair prices, but there is an
Immense amount OF trash crowded In the
aucIion room and sells low. There Is a very.
unsettled feeling prevailing, with a general
desire to realize on the part of importers. The
lmpOrtations have been heavy. Many goods
have been sold for currency at less than they
cost ON the other side In gold. The season thus
far mas been an Improbable one generally,
and the losSes are severe In many cases. The
steady decline in gold and cotton of late, has
assisted materially in bringing down prices.
