NEW YORK CATTLE MARKET—July 21. 
At Market, 1000 Beef Cattle (200 from the South), 55 Cows 
and Calves, and 3000 Sheep and Lambs. 
Pricks. —Beef Cattle.—The market continues languid, and our 
quotations to-day show no improvement on the prices of last 
week. Inferior and middling qualities $3,871 to $4 ; Prime $5 
Unsoll 300. ' ' 
Cows and Calves. —$13 to $27, according to quality, is the 
extreme range of the market. All sold. 
Sheep and Lambs. —Prices of Sheep from $1 to $2.50 a $3.00; 
Lambs 75 a $2.75 All sold. 
Remarks.— Ashes. —Transactions quite moderate. Cotton has 
advanced £ of a cent since the reception of the late European 
news. Export since the first September last 22.045,812 bales; 
Same time last year, 1,558,249 ; same time,year before, 1,971,776. 
Flour and Meal dull. Wheat dull. Corn , Rye, and Oats, 
scarce. Hay is in good demand. Provisions brisk. Rice steady. 
Sugar firm at an advance. Whiskey rising. 
Money plenty and interest at 5 to 7 per cent. 
Stocks of the better kind rather more in request. 
The Weather has been excessively hot and dry, more so than 
we have experienced before for years—the thermometer rising 
for days in succession from 95 to 98 at the greatest heat. Hay 
has been mostly secured, and proves not more than half to three 
fourths of a crop in this vicintiy. North and west of us, we un¬ 
derstand, the yield is fair. It has risen to $13 and $15 per ton, 
here. Wheat is nearly all harvested, and the yield is larger than 
has been known for years. Rye, oats, and barley are not so good ; 
but fair crops on the whole, with the exception of the straw, 
which is quite short. Corn is looking uncommonly well, North and 
West, and will be a good crop—at the South not as good as last 
year. We are sorry to notice the appearance of the rot in several 
patches of potatoes, and we have reason to believe now that it 
will be as extensive this year as it was last. From the other 
kinds of roots we have promising accounts. Fruit will be a 
moderate crop. Cotton, sugar, and rice, appear well—the com¬ 
plaints of damages being confined to a few narrow localities. 
Tobacco and hemp—many complaints of short crops. 
CHOICE MERINO BUCKS FOR SALE, 
The subscriber offers a few two year old bucks for sale, got by 
Mr. D. C. Collins’ celebrated Rambouillet buck Grandee, out of 
superior pure bred Merino ewes. Price $20 to $50. Also pure 
bred Merino bucks of various ages, and at different prices, accord¬ 
ing to age and quality. 
We can ship sheep to any port in the country. For an account 
of the shearing of our flock, we would refer to the August num¬ 
ber of the Agriculturist, page 240, and believe our stock equal 
to any in the country. 
Apply to LEWIS G. COLLINS, Washington, Duchess Co., 
N. Y., or to R. R. & L. G. COLLINS, Butternuts, Otsego Co., 
N.Y. 
BO AIMER’S METHOD OF MAKING MANURE. 
One hundred agents are wanted immediately, to promote the 
geueral introduction of this valuable invention for the manufac¬ 
ture of Manure in New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Delaware, 
and in the six New England States. Unquestionable testimonials 
and responsible securities will be required for the faithful dis¬ 
charge of the duties of the appointment. Persons of suitable 
qualifications will find this both a useful and lucrative employ¬ 
ment. Applications, if by mail, must be post paid, and directed 
to me at Westville, New Haven county, Connecticut. 
Hundreds of testimonials from the best authorities, evince that 
no farmer who is sensible of the want of Manure,should remain 
destitute of this cheap and expeditious mode of its procurement. 
Any person forwarding five dollars, to the General Agents, with 
information of the writer’s name, residence and address, shall be 
furnished with a copy of the method, with the right to use the 
same, without charge of postage.
