NEW-YORK CATTLE MARKET. 
At Market— 1,100 Beeves, (600 southern, the remainder from 
this state and the east,) 75 Cows and Calves, and 3,000 Sheep and

Beef Cattle— ■An abundant supply, sales varying from $6 to $8 
per hundred. Demand fair but dull at the close. About 100 left 
over. 
Cows and Calves. — The principal part of sales of these were 
made from $20 to 38, according to quality. 20 left over. 
Sheep and Lambs.— The prices of these continue firm. The 
sales varied from $2 to $5.50. About 100 left over unsold. 
March 11. 
Remarks. — The past month has been a very dull one, and 
prices remain nearly as they were at our last. 
The Weather still continues mild for the season. It is to be 
hoped severe frosts will not follow as they did last year, to the 
grea t injury of fruit and young crops, particularly at the south.
