CATTLE. ïhe tone of the market wm firmer, shippers buying lots at'sight, something that has not occurred at these yards for weeks. The lots that had arrived during the week were all ljought up and shipped to Eastern markets, aiul Sundays market was confined to thé exchange of local lots. These lirought á figure quite satisfaotoiy to drovers. Shippers that left this market with lots last Slonday returned and bought whát théy cou'.d at spcond hr.nds. The future of the' cattio market looks more favorable tlian it hcis betín this year.

A contiuual decline is manifestad in the sales uring the week. The long wiuter compeis mony to dispose of Iota that would have otherwise been retained on the fann. Tliough the Hunlity has been good, the later lots indicute a deterioration of quality, showing tlie effeeta of the sevore winter. It is safe to say that there iü a decline of 75 cents on the hundred poiind during the last three weeks. A very choice lot, for which the owner once rcfxiscd $5 50 in the farm yard, were sold in the yards at ?1 95. We quote : Lots avc-ruinní?
