RosIN.-DuriDg the early part of the week just
ended there considerable frmness in the
market for this article, and sales were easily eff
fecied at highest quotations given in our last
view For the past day or two, however, there
has been less disposition on the part of buyers to
operate, and under the advices from the Northern
markets prices of all grades have declined, with
the exception of finer quality. At the closing OF
our enquiries there is very little demand, owing
in great measure to the want of ship room, and
buyers are not disposed to purchase to any extent
even at the decline above noted. We quote sales
for the week of 1913 bbls at $3@$3 123 for black;
$30S3 rs for strained Common So 250D$3 373 for
No. 2 50 1904 rs for No. / $5t0$5 rs for Pale

$50 lbs. We refer to our table for quotations at

BEEF CATTLE AND SHEEP.-There is a moderate
stock of beeves in the butchers hands, but mostly
