The sheep market was reported dull and

Cattle.
The receipts Of cattle, thus far, have
not been unusually large. and IT is the
opinion of shrcwd dealers that the mar
kct will not be oycrStockcd, and that
prices will range as high if not higher
than last week. The character of the
stock arriving is good deal mixed, rang
ing all the way up from small sized bulls
Ioextra prime fat beef cattle. There
was pretty fair attendance of local
dealers, but, rs yet, few Eastern buyers
have put in IN appearance. The mar
ket, therefore, cannot he considered fairly
opened, nor have prices been established.
However, we do not anticipate prices to
go higher than - 90 or lower than - 90

Hogs.
The receipts " hogs up TO this after
noon were about the same a. that Of last
week. although as a general rule ofa bet
ter quality. As before remarked. the
scarcity of eastern buyers in the market
had intcrfered with the sales. and but few
lots had changed hands. Tomorrow,
however. the ball will be set in motion,
when lively times are looked for. The
prices will probably be 81 DOGS 10 per

There is heavy run of sheep, which,
should it continue, will doubtless cause Il

THE MEMPHIS AND KNOXVILLE RAIL
- ROAD.

We are clad to see that some OF our
morning contemporaries ara advocating
st,ns towards the completion of the
Memnhis and Knoxville railroad from
Memphis to the Tennessee river. We
act forth the feasibility and value OF such
a road more than two years ago, and
stand ready to cooperate heartily with
any who may lead off in the enterprise.
A narrowgauge road can be built 1t
il within the means Of the people along
the line, if reasonably encouraged by
Memphis, and would pay from the start
a small per cent. upon the Investment
to say nothing Of the increased values OF
property and the heavy trade that would
flow to this city from the Tennessee
river valley. 1t is time for us to help
ourselves, strike out for the trade within
reach, and build up Memphis. The pol
lev of waiting for q company" or for
eign capital to come along will never
build any railroads in the South. The
great bulk of the Hardeman county
cotton and trade goes to New Orleans
and St. Louis, simply because the roads
running north and south discriminate
against Memphis, and force people to go
elsewhere in selfinterest. 1t is folly to
talk about reaching out for the trade Of
Kansas and Texas, when we permit a
valuable trade within one hundred miles
Of the city to stay out of our grasp and
90 TO distant rival cities. We are for
Memphis first, last aud ell the time, be-
lieving that she contains the elements
of progress and redoubed prosperity.
