CATTLE-The supply of cattle on
sale this week aggregated 1850 head
against 1l6O head last week, and 1910
head the previous week. The prineipal
offerings were of the medium class and
a large number of a very inferior ouaIi.
ty. Choice cattle were scarce and in
demand at about the same rates AS ru,ed
last week. The few choice on sale were
soon disposed of at prices ranging from
7 25lS 90 per cwt. The medium and low
grades were dull of sale and nominal in
price. Good to medium sold at s 75a7 90
per cwt, and the lower grades at from
8 75a5 so per cwt. Steck cattle were
dull at a O0a5 so per cwt. A majority of
the cattle were from the adjoining coun-
ties in Western Pennsylvania, and the
balance mostly from Ohie, with con-
siderable number frem Indiana, and not
a great number left over unsoid, al
though near the close of the market
holders accepted lower prices than were
offered at the opening of the market.
There were a few fresh cows on sale,
and sold at prices ranging from 5o0oa
IS 90 per head.
HOGS-There were about the usual
number offered, but there was better
d. d, and the market was more ac-
i've, but without material change from
the prices ruling one week ago. The de-
mand was entirely confined to supply
ing the wants of butchers, aud no in
quiry outside. The pens were cleaned
out at from 10 50all % per cwt. for
choice Co extra, and 9 5Oal0 % FOR COM
mon 10 fair.
SHEEP-The supply was very large,
aggregating 1890 head against 2O6O head
last week and 2l00 head the previous
week. The main offerings were com.
mou and inferior in quality and holders
had to accept very low prices for them,
or hold them over to next week. A
large number were sold at from OOa
2 % per head for sheep, and for lambs
l GOA IS per head. Choice lambs com
manded 5Oa3 80 per head. The few
choice sheep on sale readily sold at 4a4ic
per pound, aud some extra at &c per
tound. On account of the large offer
ings and generally poor quality, the
market was one of the dullest of the sea-
son.

words.
