REMARKS 6N BEEF CATTLE
The arrivals of cattle during the week
amount to 2,S49 head, agasnst 3,l3S
head last week and 942 heal the cores
ponding week last year, and the sales
during the week amounted to 2,Ol0
head, against 2,l50 head last week and
ia heed the corresponding week OF last
wear, and were as follows: To Baltimore
butchers, 7S5; to country dealees, 7S9;
to eastern spectators, 1886: to Washing
ton dealers, 100; total sales 2,OlO. There
was little more activity in the market
than there was last week, though the
improvement was almost imperceptible
and did not last long, nor was it general,
nearly all dealers complaining OF a very
slow market. The quality was scarcely
as good as it was last week. There was
some slight advance in the wholesale
trade. Prices ranged from ga 40 cts.
few selling at the latter price.

REMARKS.
The receipts though but little more
than half what they were last week,
hove proved to be fully equal to the de-
mand, which is confined wholly to sup
plying the wants OF our home butchers,
there being no sales of note to others,
whether eastern spectators or feeders.
We quote butchers sheep at 3(a4t &c.
and few at the latter price. Lambs $40

REMARKS.
The quality OF the receipts this week
is much the same as that of last weeks
offerings. Trade in all the yards has
been venerally slow and prices scarcely
as high as last week, the decline being
fully &c as compared with the prices
then. There is likely to be a full num-
Der left in the pens after to-day for the
balance of the week. Quotations 33CT4c,

Saturday were SEINE 400 head, and the
