on sale, but the supply was fully equal TO
the demand There has been little or no
inquiry Tor several weeks past, the dry
weather having prevented farmers and
grazers from buying as many as they had
Contemplated, and the result Is that prices
have declined fully &c per ID. We now
quote at 4a5 for common to prime. There
were very few bulls on sale, and but little
call for them: may be quoted at 3ia43c.
The fresh COW trade was reported dull
notwithstanding tho supply was small,

$25a75.
SHEEP AND LAMBs-The supply, OIL
though not equal TO that Of last Monday,
was fully up 10 the demand, and while
lambs, especially those Of good size and
IN good condition, brought full prices,
the sheep market was generally dull and
lower, and some dealers alleged they
were scarcely able TO realize what their
stock cost In the country; however, at the
close there were very few, II any, left
over, but dealers generally preferred to
make concessions IN preference to having
any lett over. Sheep sold at from 4a5t &c

The capacity of women had better be taken
for granted. There had better be very little
SAID about spheres" 1t is a practical ques-
ton, which is best discussed in a cool, practi-
cal way. 1t will be difficult to make men be-
leve that since the creation the race has been
mistaken as to the relations OF the sexes. 1t
will be wiser not to try to show that the COM
mon concept on of woman is a false one, but
that the common notion of female suffrage is
asuperficial one. The world has had very slight
experience of female suffrage its experience of
woman has been very considerable. Let the
reform be argued simply as an instrument for
the good of society. and we advise its friends
not to be too impatient of contradiction or
indifference, nor to set their hearts too much
upon immediate success.-N. Y. Eyening

The Chicago Times is of the opinion that
if, as the organ of Tammany putridity thinks,
the election iu Ohio has decided that the pu-
trid Renaissance called the Democratic party
shall continue to assert its existence during
the next for years, then the Specification of
that decision is that the Republican party
shall have the controlling power in the next
Congress, and the next. and elect the suces-
sor of MIR. Grant in the Presidential Office.
There is no large harm done by the success
of the Allen faction-if Allen himself has
won-or the smaller measure of success OF
those ancients, if Thurman is the only heavy
winner-no harm done beyond the loss of the
opportunity to better the political condition
Of the country by the removal OF the Demo-
cratic party. The longer heads Of the Repub-
lican party will not discover reason for dis
couragement in the Ohio election, for they
could ask no better assurance of the perpetu-
alton of their national power, than the guar
antee that there should be straight party
fights for period including the next presi
dentia! campaign. - Cincinnati Commercial.
