were left dead on the field, and among them
General Irrasabal. Cholera was reported to have

In Chilli the merchants are very much alarm

Spaniards upon that Republic. They have So
licited the Government the privilege to remove
their bonded goods to Santiago, so as not to

grant the permission, alleging that there ex-

not return to the waters of the Pacific, and as

emergency impending precautionary measures
will be taken 80 that commerce shall sustain
no injuries. But the merchants having rea-
son not to trust the Cabinet too much, have
therefore, renewed their application. '

A claim involving one million i've
hundred thousand dollars, was recent
" rejected by the State Department.
1t was presented by Baltimore com
pany through Messrs. Lamon & Co., of
this city, who were to have % per cent
of the proceeds if successful. The
claim is said TO have been for an island
in the South Pacific, which the COM
pany claimed by right ofdiscovery, but
OF which our naval vessels subsequent-
ly took possession. Persons here are
quarreling whether the rejection of this
claim has anything to do with the de-
sire of certain parties for a change in
the State Department.
The statement is freely circulated to-
night among Cabinet matters, that

CArTLE-There was a much larger
number of cattle on sale this week than
last, being estimated in round mum bers
at twelve hundred head, and the mar
ket was little sluggish, though prices
wereIpretIy we'll sustained, and there
were but few LEFT over unsold.-
Good cattle were in good demand,
and sold without much difficulty
at full prices, while common and infe-
riOr, as has been the case for some time
past, moved slowly and only at low
prices. All Of the best cattle were ta
ken by the retail trade at prices ranging
from 71<to77< and sc-the demand for
stock cattle is beginning to fall of a
little, as Is usually the case at this sea-
son OF the year, and prices are barely
maintained, ranging from 4to6c, ac-
cording to quality and condition.
SHEEP AND LANfBS.-There was again
very full supply of Sheep this week,
the whole number on sale being esLi-
mated al $500 head, and rs a conse-.
quence, the market was a very dull
one, aud large number were left
over unsold. The best fat mutton
sheep sold at from 81 50a5 90 per head,
and from that down to 81 per head, ac-
cording to quality. Stock Sheep may
be quoted at from 81 50a2 so per head.
Lambs sold at from Sla3 90 per head.
Hoas.-There Is little or nothing do
ing in this class of stock atthese yards,
as the demand Is restricted almost en-
tireIy 10 supplying the immediate
wants ofthe retail trade. We continue
to quote at Z to 7 40 per pound, gross,
