REMARKS ON BEEF CATTLE.
The arrival of Cattle during the

S03 last week and 7S8 head the cor
responding week of last year, and the
sales were ,054 head, against 784 last
week, and 749 head the corresponding
week of last year.
Trade on the hill to-day has gener-
ally been fair-in some of the pens
active-but with fraction decline
on last weeks fgures-mcst dealers
thought full &C., while some few
considered 2-5 or even more, was
nearer the figure in some instances.
The quality was not as good as for
several weeks, middle grades being
more numerous ard tops not as plen-
tiful or quite as good. Quotations
(07c., with most sales from 81 to g..
THE SWINE MARKET.
The number of the offerings this
week differs but little with the num-
her received last week, and their
quality is quite as good as it was then.
Prices are shade easier. The offer
ings are fully equa! to the require
ments of a moderate demand. Quo
tations 920l03c., with a few very
extra at shade higher figure-mOst
sales ranging from 10 to l0sc. Last
year, this time, prices were 90103c.,
and most sales 104@108c.
THE SHEEP MARKET.
The offerings number over one
thousand head more than last week,
but butcher Sheep were not more
numerous than they were then, the
excess beingin Lambs, of which there
was quite full supply and fair trade.
The market for old Sheep was slow,
confined, as it WIS, wholly to the de-
mand on the part of our home butch
ers, there being no outside demand.
We quote clipped Sheep at 34(652c.;
wool Sheep 5(@69 Lambs 79@9f.

Is that what she longs forand covets forever
The big, airy closet, her joy and her pride,
The roomy, clean closet, the well-ordered

The big, airy closet, her joy and her pride
The house may be perfect from garrett Il

Well lighted, well aired, with cold water

And yet, t. the eye of the fe!uininedSeler,

The nj mber OF inventions that have
been made during the past fifty years is
Unprecedented in the history Of the
world. Inventions of benefit TO the
human race have been made in all ages
since man was created; but looking back
for half hundred years, how many
more are crowded into the past fifty
Than INTO any other fifty since recorded
history. The perfection of the locomo-
tive, and the now world-traverslng
steamship, the telegraph, the telephone,
the audiphone, the sewing machine, the
photograph, chromo-lithographic printing,
the cylinder printing press, the elevator
for hotels and other many-storied build
ings, the cotton gin and the spinning
jenny, the reaper and mower, the steam
thresher, the steam fire engine, the I'M
proved process for making steel, the ap-
plication OF chloroform and ether to des-
troy sensibility IN painful surgery cases,
and so on through a long catalogue,
Nor are we yet done in the field OF in
vention and discovery. The application
of coal gas and petroleum to heating
and cooking operations is only trembling
ON the verge OF successful experiment,
the introduction Of the steam from a
great central reservoir the general use
for heating and cooking is foreshadowed
as among the coming events; the artificial
production OF butter has already created
CONSERVATION among dairymen, the payi-
CATION Of the air by some device akin to
our present balloon would alsoeeem TO be
protigured, and the propulsion OF macnin-
cry by electricity is even now clearly In.
dicated by the march of experiment.
There are some problems we have hlth-
ertO deemed impossible, but are the mys-
teres of even the most improbable of
them more subtle to grasp than that of the
ocean cable or that of the photographer
or the telepbone2 We talk by cable
with an ocean rolling between; we speak
in our voices to friends a hundred miles
II more from where we artlculate before
The microphone. Under the blazing sun
of July we produce ice by chemical
means, rlvaling the most solid and crys-
tallne production of nature. Our sur
geons graft the skin from one persona

place yet.

South African inns are proverbial
for their horrors. Sometimes the
roughness of the food makes 1t difficult
to support life; sleep is nearly always
only possible by the unlimited applica-
tion of insect powder. The slaughter
effected by this valuable compound
considerably astonishes the stranger
when he rises from his bed in the
morning and finds numbers of dead
insects, of which many are worse than
Aeas. On one occasion last circuit, the
judge and some barristers, who were
sleeping at farmhouse between two
villages, were literally driven out OF
their beds in the middle of the night,
and spent the remaining hours in their
travelling carts. The inn-keepers,
moreover, have no idea of each person
having a room to himself. Two,
three and four are put into the same
room, and often moore than one are
expected to sleep in the same bed.
Baths are lucky accidents, which turn
up sometimes, but are not by any
means to be counted upon. Fresh
butter is rarely to be met with, good
milk is luxury, and vegetables are
scarce.
