Government bonds opened dull, but on

seems that bonds are scarcer at the

NEW Yank, August 18, 1869.
There are some important railroad con
sultations still going on at this point.
The preliminary papers have been aigned
for leasing the Toledo and Wabash rail
road to the Lake Shore Company, and
the directors of the latter are in session
on the matter. The terms of the propo
sed lease are a guarantee of 6 per cent.
per annum on the common stock of the
Wabash for the first year, 7 per cent. for
the second year, 8 per cent. for the third
year and equal dividends with the Lake'
Shore thereafter. It is stated the thing
is likely to be carried through, but
nothing-has been officially announced in
regard-Wit. The railroad question has
not yet been settled, but indications. fa
vor an early adjustment of the difficul
ties between the various roads. Freights
have been advanced in some cases and
the Erie Company is charging 450 to
,Chicago. The Pacific Mail directors have
'declared a quarterly dividend of 3 per
cent , payable September Ist.
M ney continues easy and the demand
was romptly met at 6®7 per cont., with
exc ticina at 5 per cent. to Government
deal rs. There are small amounts of
cur eucy going to the West. Sterling
dui at 934159%,per cent. Gold firmer
and opened at 133, fell to 132%. and
chised at 133% d ®13331. Carrying rates,
2/7 per cont. Clearances, P 5,000,000.
T e Java took no specie..,_
Governments buoyant and higher,with
small offerings to the Assistant Treasurer,
developing the fact that but N few are in
the market. New bonds and currency
of 1860 are up I@l% per cent. It Is an
ticipated that the latter will be taken by
the Bonk Department at Washington.

CATTLE.
The market has been rather quiet and
dull since the date of our last report, the
sales in the aggregate, from noon on
Thursday' up 'until noon to-day, only
reaching 935 head. The receipts yester- • .
day and to-day were quite large, unusu
ally so, and with all the pens full, and
buyers generally holding back, the mar
ket
was very dill to-day, and 'compared •
with last wee, prizes have jdeclined
from a quarter'to half a cent per pound. . i
The very best shipping steers, which
soldiast week at 8 and even 84, would
not bring above 7% today, and- this
figure could only be realized for the • i
very best grade. The great proportion • .
of the cattle on sale consisted paainiy - of
the lower grades, and for this kind of
stock buyers are scarce, and the few
bu 3 ers that are here do not want_ to pay
present asking prices, but are disposed to
hold off, in hopes that by so doing they •
will be enabled to force a decline, and it
loots now as if they would be successful.

SHEEP.
The supply onatieep on sale this week
is unusually large. mainly of the lower
grades. anti with a supply in excess of
the demand, prices, compared with last
week, are down from 25 CO 50 cents per
cwt. We now quote good to prime at
4@)4%, and extra at 5, and lair to in
ferior at from 3% down to almost noth
ing. We are cognizant of one bunch of
fancy sheep, from Indiana, having been
said at 5%. but this is an outside figure
and cannot be taken as a criterion of the
market. It is more than likely that
most of the sheep men, we mean those
who brought sheep here to sell, lost
money.

HOGS
The hog market, compared with last
week, has undergone little or no change.
The arrivals ` today were unusually
large, but prices are still pretty well sus
tained. Phitadelphia hogs quoted at
10305104;, and Yorkers at 934@9X.
To day the deinand seemed to be very
light, and it is, possible that prices may
go lower between this and Saturday.
