There wasan unusually light supply of .Cattle on sale to-day, less than five hun dred head, and, as.might naturally_ be ex pected, prices ruled considerably higher. Good Cattle were very scarce, and were picked np by the butchers at an advance of from 34 to of a cent, compared with last week; and, indeed, all kinds sold with more readiness, and at advanced prices. The demand was confined entirely to the butchers, there being no shippers in at tendance, and we doubt very much whether all the butchers were successful in getting all they wanted; five hundred is not enough to supply the wants of the re tail trade, as that number affords no chance for makine selections, and this is a priv ilege that is generally claimed by all the butchers. One thousand head is not too many, as the retail trade usually takes between seven and eight hundred head per week, and there are nearly always enough stock buyers and shippers in attendance to take'two or three hundred head. As we have already intimated, prices ruled•higher thenlast - week, and with the very light supply,.holders experienced no difficulty in establishing •an advance. Prime to extra butchers stock may be quo ted at from 734 to 83i, and medium to good at 634 to 7. Stock Cattle continue to sell at 4 to 534, according to qnality . and Condition. The sales reported Were as follows; Quigley 4 head of pod steers and heif ers to,Zeigler it, Keefer, at 5,25; McCaslin sold 10 head comnionish steers and heifers, to Zeigler, at 4,25; Stakely & Bro. 27 head mixed stock at 4' to 4,50; A. M. Wicks, 23 head Butler county steers and heifers at 4 to 4,75;.L. Rothohildri 21 head at 6,75 to 7,50; Peter Hartman 14 head at 4.t0 6,50; M. Nerner 11 head at 4to 6,75; Kraus & Haas 85 bead at 6to 7,50; Zeigler t Keefer 23 head at 5,50 to 7; Myers & Needy 54 head at sto 7,50; Greenwald t • Kahn 48 head at 4;50 to 7.76; S.

The supply of Sheep was also rather light this week, being less than two thousand Aead, and the market, as in the case of Cattle, was firmer, and prime fat mutton Sheep brought _ anadvande. Indeed, all grades were somewhat higher, but the greatest difference, was IA prime fat Sheep, of which there were but comparatively few on sale. Some of the kind just referred to were sold to butchers at 41i to 5 cts., while medium to good wicket from 62,50 to $3,50 'per head. , Scalawags"' of which' there was a very fair supply, sold at from: 75 to. .11,50 per head. The “Itittlei" butChers are commencing, to VOW), asi - they claim, that , they have to = pay- , nearly ::as _ much 7for s- Sheep as they get for-the pelt. We should ` not be surprised to hear that some of these butchers had gait the business, and turned .their 'attention to, 'something else,' which 'would probably be just as well. .

The oil trade continues very quiet, and while the market is rather dullish, there is no essential change in prices. The great majority, of our , refineries are in ; operation, though as a geneaal thing not Working rip to their full capacity, and it is probable that if the weather should turn in cold, that a large imbiber of them 'would suspend o - scions entirely. Besides,' there are many of them in need of repairs, and the Lime is now *Altana When, repairs, and Improve ments are generally made. There has been no year, perhaps, in the history of the trade, during which our refineries have been worked so steadily, as during the one which is just about at a close, and,.as a con sequence, the quantity of refined bil maim factured, has been larger than during any ,preceding year. As will be seen, by refer ence to our report of yesterday, the ship. ments East are considerably larger than last year, and there is no dongt' but' what the same is true in regard to the shipments South and West. There is another point, Which it is just as well to notice, and that is that the consumption is also steadily in creasing. CRUDE Continues quiet and dull, and while there is no important change in prices, the mar ket, nevertheless, is weak, and prices give evidence of a. downward tendency. We continue to quote spot oil, in the absence of sales, at 12 to 1234 c, and the same quota tions will apply to the next six months, seller's option. Sale Cf 290 barrels "Smith's Ferry" oil at 11340, and we heard of 700 barrels, same kind of oil, hiving been offered at same figure. =1 The market for Relined was also very quiet t6-day, but very little done, and, as we remarked in our last report, there seems to be • a disposition manifested to hold off Until after the first of the, year.. It was in mored that there had been a sale of spot oil at 30c,.and last ballot' December at 29%.
