HOGS-The number Of hogs in the sale pens
at the opening Of trade, this morning, was small.
owing to the detention Of trains by the snow
drifts; hence the market WAS aome"ha1 excited,
as there Was good attendance OF buyers and an
active demand. Holders asked loo advance On
yesterdays prices, but finally compromised on
&c. and at this advance the offerings we're readily
absorbed, sales making at s3.7a@3.85 for com
mon; at $3.90@3.95 for medium to good grades.
md ut e4.00@4.10 for choice to extra. One Of
the effects Of the snow- storm Of to-day will be to
reduce the receipts Of hogs, and the present ten
dency of prices seems to be in an upward direc-
ton, though whether or not the advance shall
prove permanent, Of course depends upon SUBJ
soquent receipts. We note the following
