LIVE STOCK MMMARKETS. PENle.ti. CENTRAL STOOK YARDS; t WEDNESDAY, March 2 4 , 1869. CATTLEr•The market has been very dull • thus ter this week ,the sales in the aggregate,being unusualy light, and not withstanding the receipts have been limited and the supply comparatively light, the tendency, if anything, seems to be downward. The number of buyers in attendance was about the same 'as last week, bat in consequence of doll mar kohl in the East, they did not seem disposed to take hold unless they did so at concessions; and this holders; as a general thing, were not willing to ac- cede, preferring rather to ship on far ther East. The fact is, cattle are en tirely toe much inflated in the country, and it is generally conceded that there is no prolit in the business for either drover or butcher; and the consumers, we mean the masses, are not able to pay present prices for fresh meat. As will be seen by reference to the repOrt of sales, prices ranged from 6 to B%foroammon to good shipping steers, while prime -to extza may be quoted at fly„o 9.

Onrum or PL isisuNGEGmarra, WEDNESDAY, March 24, 1869. • The reports in regard to the oil mar ket were somewhat conflicting to-day; some operators thought there was an improvement, oompared with yesterday, while others reported quite a different state of affairs. The fait is, some men prmit their interest to get the better of their judgment, and they sometimes say and do things which their better judg- ment condemns, and in many instances, unconsciously, stand in their own light. Nor is this confined to the oil trade alone; unfortunately -it is true of men engaged in all branches of business. For the time_ beim, they imagine that the views they entertain are Correct; that their theory is the only one in which there is any merit, and that anyone holding views in opposition to their's, Is • a tit subject for a lnnatio asylum, or some other place, kept up for tnose who are considered besides themselves. , Men are sometimes ' so interested in having the market go in a particular direction, that they work themselves up to the be. lief that it really has or is moving that way, when, perhaps, the factd in the case do not warrant any such conclusion. ORIIDEr-The market continues weak with more sellers than buyers and com- Tamed with yesterday prices are , a shade lower.
