SACRAMENTO MARKET.
The Rain Does But Little Injury TO
Straw berries and Cherries.


SAcRAMENTo, May 18th.
The rain did but little damage to Straw
berries and Cherries, receipts OF a choice ar
ticle being large enough to meet all local
wants. In the vegetable line, Cabbage is at
present scarce article, stocks having been
almost completely cleaned up. The pros
poets for Potatoes are that higher prices will
rule the crop being short. Tomatoes are
scarce and prices higher String Beans are
plentiful and cheaper. The season for Aspafa-
gus is drawing TO a close, a Few days more
being likely 20 see the bul OF the crop gone.
Green Peppers from local gardens are now on
sale. Eggs have advanced to 2212fGSoc per
dozen, ant are frm at that figure. Poultry IS
plentiful and cheap, excepting Brollers. Tor

demand at fancy phi 8. Butter is nrm.
