LIVE STOCK MARKETS.

The total receipts and shipments for last week were as follows:

Received. Shipped.
Cattle 38,913 18,801
Calves 216 37
Hogs 169,076 42,205
Sheep 24,595 14,225

CATTLE.--Notwithstanding a reported advance in England, cattle did not
improve in prices over Saturday. Indeed, there was a decline of a few
cents per hundred. The supplies were large and the quality inferior.
Indeed few really fat cattle came in during the week. Eastern markets
were reported as over stocked. Shippers and dressed meat operators
bought rather freely of common lots. We may quote as follows:

Fancy fat cattle $7 00@ 7 25
Choice to prime steers 6 25@ 6 85
Fair to good shipping steers 5 60@ 6 20
Common to medium steers 4 65@ 5 55
Butcher's steers 4 50@ 5 00
Cows and bulls, common to good 3 25@ 4 50
Inferior cows and bulls 2 30@ 3 20
Stockers 3 50@ 4 50
Feeders 4 25@ 4 75
Milch cows, per head 25 00@55 00
Veal calves, per 100 lbs. 4 00@ 7 25

HOGS.-There were fair receipts on Saturday and Monday--an aggregate of
21,000 head or some 7,000 more than for the same days last week. As city
packers are at work again, the market was quite active. They bought
about 15,000 head, and shippers took nearly all that were left. Prices
advanced from 5 to 10 cents. It may be said in general that the quality
of the hogs now coming in is poor. Heavy lots were sold at $5 15@6 25;
light hogs brought $5@5 60. Skips and culls $3 25@5.

Note.--All sales of hogs are made subject to a shrinkage of 40 lbs for
piggy sows and 80 lbs for stags. Dead hogs sell for 1-1/2c per lb for
weight
