Allegheny. Cattle Market.

CATTLE.-Thirty car loads, averaging is head
to the car, would make in the aggregate 576 cat
tie; now in addition to these, there were about
200 head driven in from Washington and other
adjoining counties which added to 576 made the
whole number of cattle on sale T76 head. This
in the absence of eastern buyers, was fully up
to the demand, and the market ruled sluggish
particularly for common cattle of which the
offerings mainly consisted, and the supply of
this kind was In excess of the demand. Really
good cattle, such our best butchers always
buy when they can get them, broughtfully last
weeks prices, say S1%@"lI cts, and medium sold
at t714GS.
SHEEP AND LAMBS-There was n very fair
supply on sale to-day fully l.1j0 head and in n
general way, the market was reported hard,
particularly by those who had inferior and
common stock. As in the case of cattle. how
ever. prime fat sheep and lambs sold without
former and Sll4@il9 q head for the latter.
There is one thing that operates favorabiy on
this class or stock and does great deal to-
wards sustaining prices we refer To the high
price of cattle, as IL causes the butchers to buy
much larger number than they would other
wise, and from this it is fair to infer that the
people are buying more mutton, There is a
difference of from two to three cents q pound
between the price of prime sheep and cattle,
which is an important item.
HoGs.-Marllet very slow, as is always the
case at this season of the year. We continue to
quote in a retail way at 913@l0H, gross. for
good to prime averages. and while the number
on sale to-day was small, II was nevertheless
fully up to the demand.

On Saturday and Sunday we had a
succession of splendid showers without
any violent manifestations or accompa-
niment, vivifying and refreshing the
vegetable world and reducing the almost
torrid temperature to comfortable con-
ditioDs. Yesterday and to-day the air
is Serene and pleasant and all that grows
and lives feel lis benign and bneficent
effects. Any one that would grumble
at che weather now, OF the prospects of
the harvest, wonld "grumble if lac was
going to be hanged
WE are having an abundance ofstraw-
berries ia our market, selling at eight
cents per quart. We have an uBusal
supply of early vegetables; | saw yes
terd.sy some new Early Rose potatoes
fine and large, brought in by Mr.. Milli-
gan, selling at seveuty-five csnts per
peck. Fine large cucumber are in the
market, also old potatoes are bringing
tenceEts peck, at retail. The market
gard ming business is probably the best
paying in proportion to the amount oil
capital invested of anv business in our
vicinity. Our farmers Oh the river aud
on McMahon,s creek are gradually get
| ting into the business. Good garden
lands are rapidly appreeiaring in value
all around us The business OF fruit
raising should receive more attention,
from the farInsis, especially the smaller
t fruits. There is money, comfort and
qualification IN it, and we nope the tinr'
may come that our markets. will be
stocked to repletion with the ffEer and
more delicious fruits.
A meeting of the citizens met ut the
CITY Hall, on Thursday evening at two
lo'ciock and voted to raise twenty-five
thousand dollars for the purpose of build
ing y school-house This acCiou-bar-
ring the question of iocation-gives
general satisfaction and it is hoped that
lenergetic action on the part OF the board
will lift the repr ach from us that has
rested upon Us for some time
| MEASURES are being taken TO procure
wharf at our landings long needed
| Improvement that will add much to the
convenience OF our HleIcudHbS anu OCSi-
ness men.
OUR council have at last taken meas
ures to organize fire department. The
young men are eager and willing TO
form into companies for the protection
of the town from Ere, and the action OF
the council meets with general appfo-
val.
THE Cou.ty Commissioners have
granted the petiiioA of the city council
for the annexation Of some adjacent
terrtory. The probabilities are that
the subject will be contested in the
| Courts.
| BUSINESS continues 10 be good;another
rist, in the river enables the steamers to
ply tIiair regular trips. The new steamer
Express is out. and if splendid trim.
She will take the place Of he old Ex-
press her officers are we'll known to be

their treatment and infringement will
make it so.

SHERIFF.-A number of persons have
been named as candidates before the
approaching /. Republican Convention,
for the Office of Sheriff. Among the
number we have heard of are, J. S.
Hamilton of Belmont; 1. T. Craft and
t. Ferrell, st. Clairsville; P. Helpbring-
er, Smith township; Jas. F. Anderson,
Thos Garrett and NJ. d. King, Bellaire.
and Joseph Frazier Martins Ferry, all
of whom are good men and either of
them could fill the office in a creditable
manner. This multiplicity of candi-
dates is favorable sign, as men are not
generally anxious for barren honors,
and they think there is good chance
for success or they would not want the
nomination. Come, gentlemen, take
the field openly by having your names
announced.
