NEW YORK CATTLE MARKET—Aug. 85. 
At Market, 1800 Beef Cattle; 150 Southern; 50 Cows, and 
3100 Sheep and Lambs. 
Prices. —Beef Cattle.—A very dull market, and sales effected 
only at a decline. We qdote $3a$5.50 as the general range, with 
a few choice at 6 cts. Left over, 600 head. 
Cows and Calves. —All at market sold at $14a$26. 
Sheep and Lambs. —Sheep may be quoted at 75 cts. a $3, and 
Lambs 87£ cts. a $2.50 and a good demand. 
Hay— All at market taken at 87£ cts. a $1.12| per cwt. for loose. 
Remarks. — Ashes steady and in fair request. Cotton has ex¬ 
perienced a slight decline, and is heavy. Export since the 1st 
September last, 2,070,271 bales; same time last year, 1,602,619; 
same time, year before, 2,000,769. Flour and Meal. —A good de¬ 
mand for export has sprung up, since the arrival of the last 
steamer. Grain of all kinds in moderate request. Hay inactive. 
Naval Stores, a light stock on hand. Pork and Beef are on the 
advance again, with moderate stocks in market. Lard quite ac 
tive. Rice an upward tendency. Seeds a good demand. Sugar 
and Tobacco the same. Wool. — Since otlr editorial, page 
270, written a fortnight since, quite an active demand has sprung 
up, and the liner qualities have advanced 1 to 2 cents per pound. 
Some 30,000 lbs. have been shipped the past month for England 
and France. 
Money the same as at our last. 
Stocks firmer since a war with Mexico Is not so-threatening. 
The Weather. In this vicinity the weather has continued very 
hot, with copious showers, since the first week in August. We 
believe this has generally been the case north of us ; but in 
some districts of the west, and particularly along the sea shore 
at the south, great want of rain has been felt. Such a dry sea¬ 
son has not been known since the year 1795. As to the crops, 
we find such differences of opinion, that it is almost impossible 
to reconcile them, and fuse into one mass the discrepant reports. 
We believe, however, that the wheat crop, as a whole, never 
was better. Rye, oats, and barley, fair; corn, with the exception 
of partial failures, promising at the north and west; at the south 
not so good—in some districts not half a crop ; hay not over two- 
thirds of a crop, so far as weight is concerned. But as an offset 
to this, it has been uncommonly well secured, and the weather 
being so dry, it is of a superior nutritious quality. Potatoes 
are turning out better than was anticipated, and we hear little 
more of the rot. Other kinds of roots are looking well, and 
turnips are particularly promising. Cotton will be a large crop, 
except in South Carolina and Georgia. Tobacco is heavy in 
Missouri and Kentucky, but light in Virginia. Hemp nearly the 
same. Rice about an average. Sugar very promising, both in 
Texas and Louisiana.
