There are some very fine Isabella Grapes now in market 
from Mr. Underhill’s Vineyards, at Croton Point, which are 
retailed at 18%c. pound. Grapes from Jersey are sold

price this season, owing to the smallness of the crop. 
Good Greenings are sold for $3 50 ^ bbl. There are Spit- 
zenbergs, Russets, Gilliflowers, Twenty Ounce Pippins, and 
several other sorts in market. 
NEW-YOKK CATTLE MARKET.

The market was somewhat dull to-day, and though prices 
have not fallen much, there was less inclination to purchase 
at high rates. There were not quite so many cattle on

hand as there were last week.

character.
