HORSES AND MULES.

There is nothing doing in horses and the mar
ket Is unchanged from the dizziness of the pre-
yiOus two weeks.
Mules are also very dull sale, with no change
in the Southern market. Only one sale IS re-
ported during the past week in this city. Some
inquiry is now being made for mules, party
from Jefferson county wished to purchase thir-
teen for shipment to South Carolina, but could
not obtain them by the time he wished, though
there are plenty in the country, if time is given
to bring them TO market.
CATTLE
The market opened quite active on Monday
and continued lively throughout the entire
week. The number sold exceeds that Of any
week previous during the season, and the gem
eral quality of the cattle was much better than
heretofore. Several car loads were shipped
during the week. and others are ready for ship
ment to-day and tomorrow. We hear of lots
being shipped from the SweetwaterValley which
are said to be very fine. Among several lots
of fine beef cattle sold in our city
we may mention one of - head sold by Mr.
Gibbs to Mr.. Neal, which was considered very
good. Another lot sold to MeSsrs. FAM Il
Jones by j. Holt, Esq, was considered fair
The demand continues good and fat cattle will
