REMARKS.
During the first part Of the week, the supply of
stock was moderate, and trade favored the seller;
but to-day there are 1856 cattle at Cambridge in
place of 675 last Tuesday, with report Of larger
number of Western cattle being on their way to
Brighton As usual the ordinary results of a
large supply is in the trade today still last
weeks prices are demanded by the dt overs, and
on fair to good qualities there is little change.
The poorer qualities find dull sale. The pa stuTes
continue so dry that there is no demand On the
part Of farmers for store" or stock cattle; al7d
everything, except working oxen and mich cows,
must be sold at some price to the butchers. The
best oxen bring from IL to Ii cents per pound, /
dressed weight; while some bulls and thin cows
and young animals are sold at ~ and 5 cents Per
pound, 40 per cent. of live weight being deducted
for offal,-that is, the buyer pays on 60 per cent
of live weight, consequently cents per pound

pound of the live weight.

VERMONT EPISCOPAL INSTITUTE. -
The tenth annual exhibition of the Yer
mont Episcopal Institute took place Mon
day evening before very large audience
The parents and friends of the pupils con-
tinued to arrive for upwards of an hour
after the exercises commenced. As usual,
st. Louis, Boston and New York were
most largely represented; but there were
some present from almost every State IN
the United States. There were many
from Whitehall and Ticonderoga.
Among the speakers the Major of the
Rock Point Cadets, Charles B. Rhodes
took the lead. He delivered Robert
Browning's "Pied Piper" with remarkable
effect, and brought down the house with
applause. Harry A. Baker gave Long
fellowss paul Reveres ride" with Pc
culiar power and delicacy, and was round
ly applauded; indeed there were
few who did not deserve and
receive applause. Dialogues and songs
were interspersed and many single selec-
tions spoken, in gratifying variety. The
younger lads did themselves credit, and
many of their selections of a comic char
acter We're rewarded by the merriment
and laughter they were designed to pro
woke. The whole thing was brilliant
success, and as the crowded audience dis
persed at 8 p. m, their congratulations
expressed to Rev Mr. Hopkins, the prin
cipal, upon the occasion, and to each othel
upon their having sons interested therein
were heard upon all sides. Mr.. Hopkins
informed us that he would reopen the
Institute on the 18th day of Octobe
next.
