via rail and the Eastern Steamboat Com

The Maine Farmer says that &c +. Put
mans Sons of New York, the well known
publishers of standard works of history and
biography, have issued recently another edi-
ton of the History of Gustavus Adolphus
and His Times" by Hon. John L. Stevens,
our fellow townsman. This volume is print-
ed In superb style, and has full index by
the author, which the former editions did
not have. This book covers the entire life
of the great Protestant hero, and gives an
elaborate account of the origin of the Thirty
Years war, and full history of the mighty
struggle to the des:h of the great leader.
For this production Mr.. Stevens has received
The special thanks of the present king OF
Sweden. formally communicated through his
minister of foreign affairs. The king is
himself a person of literary tastes, and has
written the history of Charles the MI, whose
military genius and remarkable career did
not cOnduce TO the welfare of his country.

Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
Produce trade revives not. Choice butter
and reliable eggs are firm at the recent ad-
vance. Cheese has disappointed the expecta-
tions of jobbers by not going up since the OPEN
ing of the year. leading jobber says that the
delay in the cheese advance is in part due to
the TACT that Lent begins later than usual this
year. An experience of many years proves that
cheese uniformly takes an upward turn imme-
diately before Lent An illustration Of the
difference in vegetable lines is furnished by
the fact that barrel of choice potatoes can be
had at less than the price of a bushel this time
last year. The difference in price of apples is
as great, and much greater in the price of
onions and cabbage Produce merchants who
close up this winters trade even are not in the
majority.

LIVE STOCK REVIEW.
Leading Features Of the Weeks
Trade al Liberty Yards.
HEAVYWEIGHT CATTLE GO SLOW.
StOckmen Not Less Pleased Than Pack
ers With Hog Market.
MEDIUM SHEEP AND LAMBS DULL.
OFFICE OF THE PITTsBCRG DISPATCH,
THURSDAY. February IA 1889

OFFICE OF THE PITTsBURG DrsPATCH,l
THURSDAY, February Il, 1889. !
The weeks local receipts of cattle are
about 10 carloads less than last week and
Is less than the week before. Through re-
ceipts are larger than for several mouths
past With falling off of about 800 head
in local receipts, under ordinary circum-
stances there would be an advance in prices.
The condition of the cattle trade. however, for
the past few weeks has been an exception to all
rules, and has upset all calculations of stock
men.
An old-time operator at the Liberty yards
gives the following terse view of live stock
markets: Heavy cattle are lower than they
have been since before the war. 1t seems that
nobody wants heavy weights. Butchers want
nothing above SIC, and if you ask them more
than &c they get out of the cattle pens as fast
as if they had been shot out by cannon.
They argue that it is impossible to compete
with Chicago dressed beef and pay above 4c
per pound. BeeYes weighing from LOO TO
100, winch can be bought from SIC to 334c,
are In best demand. The effect OF TINS pollcS
is to drive consumers more and more to dressed
beef The plan adopted by our butchers TO
compete with the dressed beef trade is defeat
ing It's own end"
of all Liberty stockmen, are no good. Smooth
butcher stock, ranging from !, 100 to 400 by a
pinch hold their own, as compared with last
weeks prices. Heavier grades 60 begging at
decline of 10 to 10 cents from last weeks prices.
When J. l.G00-pound steers sell at os4c, as they
have done this week, and the same would bave
brought &c few months ago, 1t is clear enough
TO a blind man that profits to butchers are
large now, OF losses were large then. 1t is
possible butchers were working for glory last
summer. Verify they have their reward now.
BOgs.
Receipts at Chicago to-day were 2S.0O0 head
and Yesterday 10000 head, with market steady.
At Liberty markets opened weak this morning
and prices declined 10c from Yesterdays rates.
Before the decline packers here found it profit
able to order their hogs from Chicago. 1. re-
quired the drop Of l0c to make an inducement
To buy at home.
The hog market" said one of the leading
operators in this line. at Liberty to-day. as
worse than for week past" Per contra. a
leading packer said, markets are coming 10
where they should have been weeks ago. and
hogs are now to be had at price where there
is some margin of profit on products, which
has not been the case since the season opened
IN November, until the past week.
Sheep and Lambs.
Through local receipts of sheep are smaller
thN week than last prices weakened after
Mcncly because of unfavorable news from
Eastern markets, and are l0c off from prices of
Lass week on all but very choice grades, which
are scarce.
Light and me dunn lambs are hard to sell

hons at the Liberty yards:

Railway Enterprises in Perm,

The Peruvian Minister of Public Works has
notified his intention'ot granting a concession
for the construction of a railway between Lima
and Pisco, which will no doubt greatly tend to
develop the resources of the country, as it will
open up the rich districts between lea and
lslay and facilitate the transport of ore OBJ
tanned in the Casrrovirreyna mines. The rail-
way viii also pass through the saltpeter- -produc-
ing district of Iona. A branch line is also to
be constructed from Islay to Arequipa Puno
and Cuzcs, and there is no doubt that the port
Of Isay will shortly supersede that of Mol
