NEW-YORK CATTLE MARKET. 
At Market 1,800 beef cattle, (900 Southern, the remainder from 
this State,) 50 Cows and Calves, and 6,000 Sheep and Lambs. 
Beeves.— The demand since our last has been limited. Sales 
of best retailing qualities at from $5 to $7.50,— the trade clos- 
ing very dull. About 300 head would remain over undisposed 
Cows and Calces. -Sales at from $22.50 to $45, as in craalitv. 
All taken. H 3 
Sheep and Lambs. — Sales of Sheep at from $1.50 to $3.50. 
Lambs, $1.50 a $3.75. Left over, 150. 
Remarks. — Colton and Tobacco have advanced since our last. 
Very little alteration in other articles. 
Potatoes have rotted considerably in different parts of the 
country, and have consequently advanced in price in those locali- 
ties. Where the rot is unknown they are eheap and abundant. 
The Weather continues delightful — indeed we never knew a 
finer Autumn. No frost yet in this quarter to do injury. Corn is 
well ripened and a large crop. AH roots except potatoes are 
good crops. Tobacco is much injured particularly in Virginia. 
The season for picking cotton and making sugar is highly favora- 
bie ; nevertheless the cotton crop will be decidedly short. 
To Correspondents. — Communications have been received 
from L. Durand, A Subscriber, and David Tomlinson.
