Ho experimental SulpneulS Oh Deet on
the hoof to Great Britain have led to the
expectation to that country of hogs, sheep,
butter and cheese; and the market for
these articles thus far seems to have been
a profitable and is certainly a growing
one. The quantity Of fresh meat that ar
rived in the port of Liverpool from this
country Ior the week ending April ) was
the largest this season, though there was
a serious falling of in the receipts of dead
hogs. The totals We're as follows: Dead
meat, 600 quarters of beef; 2,23S car
casses of mutton, 225 hogs. Eight steam
erS arrived with cattle, their total con
signments of live stock being 72o head of
cattle, ,Oc9 sheep, ard ,}ll pigs Five
steamers that lett New York on April )
took out as part of their freight 5000
packages of creamery butter and II, 800
boxes of cheese.
\ London correspondent Of the Chicago
Times says that vast quantities Of this
England, while much that goes To Lon
don is brought there as English meat.
This is more particularly the case with
regard to beef, American live cattle,
after a little attention on the other side
of the water, are sold at an advanced
price 10y mlddlemen and spectators for
English stock, this being the more easy
as American beef has been found quite
equal to the British. The London con
sumner is therefore receiving no benefits
us yet from the shipments from this coun-
try, owing to the combination between
the dealers and the butchers, the latter
running down American beef while actu-
ally selling it as English at the old prices.
American mutton is however, decidedly
inferior to the English, and as it cannot
well be passed OFT as OF home production,
it sells at a reduced price. This enables
the poor people to buy prime Joints where
as hitherto they had to be content with
"scrag ends and '.bits" left after the
more ariStocratic customers have taken
