Remarks. — Jlshes in fair demand. Cotton has receded a shade 
since the arrival of the Britannia. Flour in moderate request, 
with a very large stock on hand. Grain of all kinds dull. Mo¬ 
lasses firm. JVaval Stores little doing. Provisions generally 
in fair demand. Cheese quite brisk. Rice dull. Sugar firm, and 
in demand. Tobacco in fair requ st. Wool quiet. 
Money is much easier. 
Stocks have become quite firm. 
The Weather has been very rainy through May, and rather 
warm. At the South we hear complaints of the backwardness of 
the Cotton. Sugar, Rice, and Tobacco, are remarkably promis¬ 
ing. Wheat generally is looking well, a few fields have been 
ravaged by the fly. The crops at the North, though rathe* 
backward, are promising—grass and hay never more so. Upon 
the whole the prospects thus far are quite favorable. 
To Correspondents. —L. T. Talbot, S., M. W. Philips, Prof. 
Gale, and Solon Robinson, are received. 
New York State Agricultural Society. —At a meeting of 
the Executive Committee at Auburn, the past month, on motion 
of Mr. Stevens, it was 
Resolved, That no Premium be hereafter given on fine-woolled 
sheep, except they shall have been shorn at the last preceding 
shearing season ; that the date of the shearing and the age of the 
fleece be given; that on the sheep and fleece jointly the Pre¬ 
mium be awarded ; that the Committee consist of five, two of 
whom at least shall be staplers at the original Constitution of the 
Committee, and if practicable shall be so at the time of their final 
action ; that satisfactory evidence of the age and identity of the 
fleeces ; the time of shearing and age of the fleece be furnished 
to the Committee, or there shall no Premium be awarded. 
American Herd Book.— Mr. L. F. Allen informs its that the 
printed sheets of his Herd Book are in the hands of the binder, 
and that they will be ready for delivery by the 10th or 15th of this 
month, at the latest. Subscribers in this vicinity can have their 
volumes by calling at our office. 
Imported Saxon Sheep. —Four Saxon bucks and four ewes 
arrived at this port, to our consignment, on the 21st tilt., on board 
ship Atlantic from Bremen. They were selected from the Elec¬ 
toral flocks in Germany, by Mr. John A. Taintor, of Hartford, 
Conn., one of the best judges of sheep and wool in this country. 
He was assisted in his choice by Baron de Spreck, one of the 
most celebrated wool-growers in Europe. In consequence of 
their being still in their cages while we are writing this para¬ 
graph, we cannot examine these sheep as well as we could 
wish ; but they strike us as being by far the largest and best 
formed Saxons we ever saw—fully equal in size to the largest 
Merinos. In fact most superb animals, with a noble presence, 
and showing constitution equal to their size. The fleeces as 
well as we can judge are very soft and fine, covering the sheep 
clear down to their toes, and on their forehead and around their 
eyes. They will shear heavy. These sheep are for Mr. Sami. 
C. Scoville, Salisbury, Conn., who has a large flock of native 
Saxons. He designs them for his own use. We shall endeavor 
to give the public full particulars of this importation hereafter. 
We consider it a very important one to the country, and have no 
doubt Mr. S. will be well paid for his enterprise. 
AYRSHIRE BULLS. 
The Subscriber has one three-year old Ayrshire bull for sale, 
price §>100; also, one three months old, price $30. They are 
bred from stock imported by himself, from the best breeds in 
Scotland. It is believed that they have no superiors in the 
United States. R. S. GRISWOLD.
