regarded as fairly commenced. Should the
weather become more cool and better
times may be expected in this department

The season is dragging and receipts
light, with no Strengthening to-day. except

The receipts continue light, with some
2,50O head in the pens this evening. The
impression now generally entertained is
that the packing around the falls this
yea, owl z to the admitted short crop in
kentucky, will be far less than that of last
year. Martin 4. SOM of Jefferson wife,
killed 463 hogs to- day, and the total slauglI4
