Saturday last, regardless of the fact of it

were bought and sold, and prices ranged
low.
gentleman in our town has received
a letter, quite recently, from a brother Of
his, who lives in Pleyto, California, and
he writes that in that immediate section
no ram has fallen for two years; and what
might be considered IN this country a
good horse, can be bought for $3.50, and
other stock in proportion, we suppose all
ca account Of the continued drouth.
