The feeling prevailing here seems to have been

though less intensely so at those places, as is
inferable from the fact that the average OF

ana only largerthan the unprecedentedly di-
minished ones at Chicago. The truth h. there
Is very little OF cured meats in the country, but
as there is q pressure to sell even the little here.
and the impression has gone abroad that the
slaughter Of the ensuing fall and winter will
reach some 100000 hogs, there is a disposition
70 clear out the old, in apprehension of larger
supplies and Of cheaper meats. During the
Wlnuer--say from the latter part of November
OnWard-this may be the case, but as there are
full two months Of heavy consumption, during
which winter cured meats must be exclusively
relied upon as a means of supply there is no
proper warrant for discOunting values so far
IN advance. Between the meats now cured,
and which will go into consumption before the
18th OF November, and those To be cured after
that time, there Is no more competition than
between summer and winter wear, nor except
anon people as necessarily nervous as pork
operators, would any be acknowledged. 1t is
possible that an tncautiOus remark OF a leading
commercial reporter of the West may, in a
measure, be ansWerablef for the present condi-
ton Of the trade. and, If 50, il tes cheS the ne
cessity OF not assuming to assess values several
months IN advance OF the opening OF the mar
ket. Hogs may or may not be worth S6 gross

WHISTLER they reach that figure or not, their
winter value should not, as we have claimed,
influence the present price of cured meats, and
when parties shall ave cleared OFF their
stocks, as they are likely to do. and shall have
found that there remain weeks of consump-
ton during which they may have nothing TO
oteT, even though prices may be remunera-
tive, they will discover their mistake, and re-
gret il without being able TO Fectify It,.
Mess pork has given way in every leading
neglected part of the hog. At New orieansth he

has been relieved by shipments TO Southern
ports; but as they are temporarily supplied,
and we are receiving the country supplies,
there is very little present prospect of recov-
cry and the market has become so demoral-
lied that Spectators, both for present and for
ward delivery, have retired. The scarcity OF
sides and the large demand for bacon, may in
duce TIE smoking Of mess pork; but as this is
a hazardous experiment, il is not likely to be
prosecuted to much extent. There Is no stock
OF NJ. o., p. NJ, or rump pork.
