New York Cattle Market—June 21. 
At market, 1100 Beef Cattle, 325 from the north; 120 Cows 
and Calves, and 2500 Sheep and Lambs. 
Pricks.— Beef Cattle. —No alteration, except an increased dul- 
ness. We quote for retailing sorts at $5.50, a $6.50, with occa 
sionally an extra beast at $7 ; unsold 250. 
Cows and Calves. —Sales at $14 a $28. Left over 20. 
Sheep and Lambs —A large offering, but nearly all sold at $1.25 
a $4 for sheep, and $1 25 a $2.75 for lambs. Unsold 150. 
Huy —An abundant supply at 56 a 67 cents per cwt. for loose 
by the load. 
Remarks. — Ashes, after the late fall of prices, are now firm. 
Cotton has further declined §■ to ^ cent per lb. since the arrival of the 
Acadia. Export from the United States since 1st September last, 
1,425,383 bales ; same time last year, 1,884,948 ; same time year be¬ 
fore, 1,340,894. Flour is dull. Wheat, the same. Corn and Rye 
more active. Hay is pressing upon the market, and i3 slow of sale. 
Molasses and Sugar, quiet. Provisions, without change since our 
last. Rice and Tobacco, in moderate demand. Wool, the transac¬ 
tions, especially in the country, are brisk, and prices rule from 30 
to 40 per cent, higher than last year at this time, which will make 
the handsome additional difference of about $3,000,000 to go into the 
farmers’ pockets. 
Money the same as at our last. 
Stocks are perhaps a trifle lower. 
The weather has been more or less cold and rainy in June, but 
this has not seemed to deter the ripening of the crops, which are 
unprecedently early. Most of the Wheat and Rye south of Del¬ 
aware is secured, and proves a large yield. The Hay harvest is 
going on briskly all around us, and the cut proves of a good qual¬ 
ity and very abundant. Cotton, Corn, Hemp, and Tobacco are 
looking well, and th6 root-crops throughout the country promising 
in the extreme. There has been a continued loss on the bottoms 
of the upper Mississippi and some of its tributaries, especially the 
Arkansas and Red rivers, from their overflowings ; in other parts of 
the south the drought still continues, and the attacks of the aphis 
gossyphii or cotton-louse have been quite destructive in some dis¬ 
tricts, cutting short the crops materially; but the whole average 
promises to be a good one. West we hear considerable complaint 
of destruction of the wheat from the fly, rain, and rust; yet, not¬ 
withstanding all these offsets, we are of opinion that the crops 
generally will be uncommonly abundant on the average throughout 
the country. 
GREAT SALE OF ELECTORAL SAXON 
SHEEP. 
The undersigned will sell at vendue, the two flocks of pure Elec¬ 
toral Saxon Sheep, belonging to the estate of the late Henry D. 
Grove, as follows : 1st. That at Granger, Medina county, Ohio, 
consisting of about 400 sheep, on the 30th Sept., next, on the farm 
now occupied by them. 2d. The home flock, at his late residence 
in Hoosick, Rensselaer county, N. Y., consisting of about 350 
sheep, on the 15th Oct., next. A rare opportunity is offered to 
those who may be anxious to improve the quality of their flocks. 
The following is the opinion of the distinguished manufacturer who 
has usually purchased Mr. Grove’s wool, of the character of these 
flocks: — 
“ The purest blood in this country was introduced by the late 
Mr. Grove in his own flocks, the wool of which l have been famil¬ 
iar with since their importation in 1827. In point of fineness and 
admirable felting qualties, this wool is unsurpassed by any flock in 
this country, and the fleeces average about half a pound each more 
than any other I am acquainted with.”
