NEW YORK CATTLE MARKET—Jan. 27 
At Market 1100 Beef Cattle, 250 from the South, 140 Cows and 
Calves, and 800 Sheep. 
Beef Cattle— We quote best retailing at $5 a 6,50, with a few 
extra at 7c.; market dull, and 300 unsold. 
Cows and Calves —All sold at $14 a 28. 
Sheep —Market was cleared at $1,75 a 5,50 as in quality. 
Hay —Good supply at 56 a 57£c. per cwt. for loose. 
Remarks. —wishes are steady. Cotton has advanced from \ to 
2 a cent per lb., the past month, and there seems great confidence 
on the part of the merchants that it will stand at the present 
rates. Exports from the United States since 1st September last, 
558,506 bales ; same time last yessr, 307,918; same time, year be 
fore, 600,696. Flour , a fair demand. Grain the same. Pro¬ 
visions of all kinds are more firm, the late European news has 
had a good effect on the market. Swine , the killing season is 
now pretty much over, and the number thus far slaughtered in 
Cincinnati, reaches only 170,000 head, which is 30,000 less than 
last year. In the valley of the Sciota, the number has decreased 
73,000 ; on the upper Mississippi, 86,000. Added to all this, the 
hogs are of lighter weight this season than usual. Thus it will 
be seen, that there is good reason for the late advance in pork. 
Com in Arkansas, and some other parts of the West, continubs 
very high and scarce. Sugar brisk. Wool , considerable in 
quiry. 
Money is less abundant, and commands 6 to 7 per cent. Specie 
continues to go out of the country. With the lessening of im 
ports and increase of exports, this will doubtless soon stop. 
Stocks are in good demand. 
Real Estate has recently sold in large parcels at advanced 
rates. 
The Weather thus far has been mild beyond our memory. 
Scarce 3 days this winter that the thermometer has sunk below 
the freezing point at 3 o’clock P. M. Several days it has risen 
as high as 50 to 60. January thus far has been complete March 
weather.

“ The best practical book I have ever met with .”—Professor 
Johnston of Durham. 
“ The vast mass of facts are no less valuable than the lucid 
way they are detailed ; so that without overwhelming those ask¬ 
ing for information, everything is given that can be wanted to be 
known on the subject. The knowledge displayed is extremely 
various, and proves the author as well read on the subjects as he 
is practically informed .”—Monthly Magazine.
