The Louisiana Sugar Bowl publishes u state¬ 
ment that 1,000 Chinamen tiave been engaged by 
a large planter In the sugar growing district uf 
that State, and are expected to arrive at an early 
day. A planter who has had none but Chinese 
laborers for a year or so past, writes that they 
are In every reaped superior to negroes. He 
expresses the hope that a sufficient number 
“may be brought to the State to make it bloom 
as it did in ante-rebellion times, believing that 
they are tho labor that can build up its broken 
fortunes."

LIVE STOCK MARKETS. 
New York, Aug. 17. 1371. 
The markets are generally depressed again, with a 
full supply of cattle and hogs, and n heavy run of 
liirntis. Peaches begin to fall off somewhat m quan¬ 
tity mid Increase a little ill price, but they are still so 
abundant and ot such good quality that they are 
largely used In place of beef, The otit-oi-u>wti do¬ 
le. ind for meats of various kinds alone pro vents a 
heavy decline in prices, for it is impossible to use up 
all the stock here. Fewer cuttle lire raised each year 
in I he vicinity of the city. Dutchess county was 
formerly a noted cattle grazing region. Now milk 
supplants beef, and the butchers from that section 
emmo here for their supplies.

Tins is what some of them have to submit to this 
week, for tho best offer on u drove of Texans was 
Ju.st their cost in Buffalo. The owner declined to 
well, but in nine cases out of ten tho first ••tiers are 
i lie best. Cuttle constantly lull away In flesh when 
held here, no matter how well fed. and the. poorer 
the cult.le, particularly it wild Toxunw, the more 
they shrink. The present offerings are inrge and 
man v of the cattle rat. There were HI car loads at 
< omiuiiulpaw on Monday, 97 at Kioili street, and 88at 
Wi olim.vken. making 5.329 beeves on sale. 
The market showed some life, and all were sold at. 
very little variation from lhe rales of the previous 
wtick. Hincc then we have hud mot e than i/jKJO cut
