LOCAL MARKETS.
The cattle trade will probably look up q
little since the recent rains. The hog trade j.
scginning to show some life. We hear OF sew
eral salcs Of LIGHT hogs at ~ and ~ cents du
ring the last few days. Mr. u. l.. Stephenson
shipped three car loads from this place On lasi
Wednesday which he bought at those figures
There l. no doubt in the minds Of our trader
that the market will advance IL the weather i
favorable next week.
There are now in the county but few IL any
New York cattle. Ofthe large number Of fa
cattle sold in this county during the year
Messrs. Burnside Il Anderson, of GarrarC
county, have bought perhaps the greater por
ton. They are enterprising gentlemen and
areemincntly prompt, reliable and fair in theil
dealings, and are valuable men to any com
munity in which they operate. While we ar,
gratifed TO hear Of their success 50 far, we re-
grct exceedingly that our farmers were com
relied by combination Of circumstances 3,
dispose Of their cattle before they were thor
oughly maturcd and fatted.
