REVIEW OF THE CHICAGO CATTLE DiAmons, Dee. 2.—The market has presented during the past week the same general features as noted at the date of our last review. We arc unable to note any improvement either in busi ness or in the quality of the cattle offered. The supply of extra shippi2g Beeves was confined to about 75 head, which Said readily at $3.40@3.50 100 lbs gross. The question has been asked us quite often during the past month, "What's become of all the extra beef eattlel Why are they not brought to the marketl" The unusually small supply of this class of cattle at the different yards in the city for the past month makes the question very perti nent and to the point, yet we are unable to give a satisfactory answer. The demand for extra Beeves curing the 'nest muullihns . been rtetlVe ar - vasayt) 3:50, yet drovers and farmers continue to overstock the market with inferior and common grade cattle, for which they are bothered to find purchasers at the ruinously low rates of $1.25@1.75 la' 100 tbs.

FOR TALNERB.—Whenever there `are two'wor'ds of similar meaning, one foreign and the other English, it always sounds more or less pe dantis to use the foreign. Our attention - is called to this by often bearing the French word suite (sweet) used instead of our own word, suit, when speaking of a ,suit or rooms or a suit of clothes. As Webster says : "In all its senses the .word is the same, and the at of making it French in' one use, and En,g lieh in another, is improper, not to say ridiculous)) Now, there is no doubt but that a suit of apartments in the "Continental Hotel" would be meet ; so, in deed, would be a suit of clothing from the " Keystone Palace," locntekunder - the "Continental Hotel ;" yet to. avoid pedantry, stick to the above' rule;:and buy your clothing, at the "Keystone Palace," where they have hut one price, and that marked plainly on the goods.
