ALLEGHENY CATTLE MARKET.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZtarT.E.,
MONDAY, Atlgust 31), 1869.
CATTLE.
The supply on sale today was not
quite up to that of last week, 850 against
nearly 1000 last week, and with an im
proved demand the market was more
active and a shade strong, and in some
'eases, prime fat, cattle brought a slight
advance, though as a general thing,
Prices, compared with last week, have
undergone but little change. The
change in the weather caused the butch
ers to buy more freely, and it is said
that some of them, for reasons not here
necessary to mention, bought two weeks
supply. Common cattle, however, were
no better than last week, with the' , ex
ception, perhaps, that they sold quicker,
while prime butchers stock, as already
anti mated, sold quick, and that, too at
fall prices.
Aswill be seen by reference to the re
port of sales, prime to extra fat steers,
sold at from 735 to 7%, and good to
medium, at 6to 7. Fresh cows are in
rather better demand, with sales reported
all the way front $4O to $BO, as to quality
and condition.

furnished 10. cars; Cincinnati 2; Loudon
ville 1; La Rue 3; Mt. VierorY 1; Newark

sale, about 2,200 head, and the market,
generally, was very similar to that of
