the demand. shippers being restrained from
active operations by tho gloomy tore OF advices
from the East, while the abundance Of poultry,
game, and cheap meats with which the market Is

for homo consumption, but the. com
parative1y light supply on sale stimu-
lated dealers, and the prices realized
were rather more satisfactory to sellers than on
any Of the half dozen preceding days. The
offerings were mostly Of tho common to good
grades, for which the ruling prices were $4,000
90. Some scalawags were disposed Of OF $2.00
@2.50, while few choice were taken at $500
$40. The market closed firm, with only few

the children of the public schools for a play
ground, and the balance being over-run and

state OF things will continue of course, no
one can tell. The township is the only party
that can make the purchase with any hope of

ary interest can negotiate with no other par

there is hope at least, that such terms as may

this Harbor, is about TO leave these fishing

While it is necessary here to run out some IS

the lake is narroweroff Erie and deep water
is brought within half the distance.
