rived with good trips snd fair orders,
which will be filed and shipped to-mor-
row.

suitable to go South sold st full prices
1 colts and ysarlings notso brisk, but sew
eral lots of the latter sold as high as $lll
per head.
The Paris Citizen says " the mule mar
ket continues unusually sctive and buoy
ant. During the past week our streets
have been daily alive with drove after
drove Of mules going south1Rrd. Prices
ara well maintained, and our stock msn
have already more than made up their
