Beeves. Almost iuimodbitely upon the close of 
Monday's market cuttle began to advance. The cause 
was a lighter run with a favorable chnngo in the 
weather. TUe Improvement was steady um.il Hfc'iic. 
were added, and mnv we Arid some sales fully lo. 
above what the same cattle were sdling ui one week 
ago. Texans, for Instance, reuehud He. per lb., but 
thev were good. A lot of very pour long-horns, 5G 
cwt., and bruised at that, sold for S'4c- Good natives 
went readily ut I2H<« I3e.. with prime at i;ij;©Uo. One 
drove Of 8 cwt. f). grades averaged over J3.WC. 
There were onlv 788 head on sale yi‘*turilay, and 
butchers uuiekly picked them up, the rumor prevail¬ 
ing that the run will be light next Monday, ami a 
very largo proportion of them Texans, These'lex¬ 
alts arc a bitter pill for butchers, but It now looks as 
though it will have to he swallowed even without a 
sugar coating. Of the native* received at the great 
wholesale marts of Chicago, Pittsburgh and Buffalo 
many arc Wild for grating, the feed being good and 
am/.iers becoming convinced that fat cuttle will be 
high next winter. In the Fur Western Slates they 
begin to talk of dry weather, but it is much later 
thun usual for reports of this kind. Some of the 
Kansas prairies have already taken tire, though no 
great fear* of extensive burnings are entertained. 
The market certainly closes very strong here.

This road is the western link in the 
now AIK LINE from BUFFALO to 
CHICAGO, and runs from the Detroit 
River to Chicago in nearly a straight 
line. 
The road is a part of the same line 
as the Canada Southern, and is being 
built by the same men, viz., JMilton 
Courtrighl, John F. Tracy, David 
Dows, Wni. L. Scott, Henry Farnam, 
R. A. Forsyth, John M. Burke, M. L. 
Sykes, Jr., all directors cither in the 
Chicago and Northwest or the Chi¬ 
cago, Rock Island and Pacific; Ceo. 
Opdvke of the Midland Road; Sid¬ 
ney Dillon, Daniel Drew, John Ross, 
David Stewart, Samuel J. Tilden, 
Kenyon Cox, and other prominent 
railroad men. 
The road, like the Canada South¬ 
ern, will have steel rails (sixty pounds 
to the yard) throughout; is practi¬ 
cally straight anil level, much shorter, 
and can be run more quickly and with 
greater safety than any other road 
connecting Buffalo and Chicago. 
Twenty-five miles are finished and 
running; seventy-live miles more are 
so far advanced as to be finished by 
Jan. 1, and the entire road will be 
completed during the. ensuing year. 
Steel rails and ties for one-half the 
entire road have already been pur¬ 
chased. 
The builders of the road control 
enough of its Chicago feeders to ob¬ 
tain for it a profitable business from 
the. start, having projected the line to 
accommodate existing business, and 
having seen the necessity for another 
trunk line between Chicago and the 
Atlantic seaboard, located expressly 
with the view of obtaining the cheap¬ 
est transportation practicable. 
The branch lines will make the 
shortest connections between Chicago 
and Toledo, and Chicago and Detroit, 
as well as between all these points and 
Buffalo. 
The Canada Southern Bonds, in 
every particular like these, were eag¬ 
erly taken, the last ol them several 
weeks ago, by the best class of invest¬ 
ors, and were on the market a shorter 
time than any other railroad loan of 
like amount for years past. 
The proceeds of these bonds will 
complete the entire line, and we rec¬ 
ommend them with the same confi¬ 
dence as we did the Canada Southern, 
and regard them as in every way a 
choice security.
