New York Cattle Market—June 26. 
At market, 900 beef Cattle, (750 from the south,) 85 Cows and 
Calves, and 1250 Sheep and Lambs. 
Prices. —Beef Cattle were very dull, and our highest quotations 
obtained with difficulty, viz.: $5 75 a 6 25 for qualities for retailing. 
350 unsold. 
Cows and Calves .—Sales of 65 at $20 to $25 a $28. 
Sheep and Lambs .—All but 50 taken at $1 50 to $3 75 for Sheep, 
and $1 50 c 3 75 for Lambs. 
Remarks. Ashes continue to be in good request. Candles, the 
stock of sperm is light, and they are held firm. Cotton, the trans¬ 
actions have been comparatively limited during the past month, and 
the dulness of the article in Europe, has made holders here submit 
to a decline of * to * cent since the arrival of the Columbia. Ex¬ 
port since 1st September last, 1,903,607 bales ; same time last 
year, 1,354,578 ; same time year before, 1,200,204. Flour is dull 
at quotations, and we think it has reached its highest price. Grain. 
Of Wheat we have only a light stock, arid it is held firm, with an 
upward tendency ; Rye has declined ; Oats and Corn, plenty and 
dull. Hemp , in little demand. We hear of a superior quality of 
water-rotted, from the plantation of the Hon. Henry Clay, of Ken¬ 
tucky, having been sold in the Philadelphia market at $190 per 
ton. Molasses, dull. Naval Stores, in fair request. Provisions 
of all kinds rather flat, with the exception of Lard, which is in 
good demand. We see nothing particularly worthy of remark in 
other articles, save that Wool is brisk, and quite a probability of 
its advancing. The southwestern qualities are bringing a higher 
price than the northern, owing to their superior softness, which is 
attributed to climate alone. 
Southern Business has commenced in the city tolerably brisk, 
and a reasonable trade from that quarter is anticipated for the com¬ 
ing season. 
Money can be had in any quantity on first rate paper, for 3 to 
4 percent, per annum. On bond and mortgage, 6 to 7 per cent. 
Stocks of the better kind are again on the advance, and in re¬ 
quest. 
Crops .—Wheat is suffering some from smut and the fly ; and, 
although there are partial failures in particular districts, the yield 
throughout the country promises to be a full average. The harvest 
is now over in most of the southern states, and it has come in 
well. Corn is rapidly improving with our present fine weather. It 
is now getting somewhat dry, and a good rain would be acceptable. 
The Subscriber will attend promptly to the execution of all or¬ 
ders for the purchase of stock, seeds, agricultural implements, 
and books. He has been more or less engaged in mercantile pur¬ 
suits in this city for ten years, and has an extensive acquaintance 
and thorough knowledge of business in general. Cash or produce 
must invariably be in hand, before the order can be executed.
