Montreal, Q., April 22. -Notwith-
standing that the weather was un-
favorable, a cold rain having fallen
all day, the market was a very brisk
one, and the attendance of both
buyers and sellers was considered
good. There were over 400 butch-
ers' cattle, some of which were in
excellent condition, and will no doubt
be bought by shippers to fill up a
load. There were 450 calves, but,
the market appeared to be glutted
consequently prices ruled low. Sheep
and lambs were in demand, but
there were only 20 sheep and 60
spring lambs. The butchers' cattle
sold at prices varying from 3 -le 1i 5c
per ib. and some which were not in
good order were offered at even
lower prices. The cold rain and the
muddy state of the market had a
bad•effoct on the poor cattle and the
young calves. The latter were sold
as low as $1 each, and the highest
price paid was $6. Sheep brought
from $4 « $6 each, and spring Iambs
$2.75 ; $4.75. Fat hogs are in de-
mand and culling higher, 5c « 5 c
being asked. Drovers are searching
the eountry far and near for beef
cattle and sheep for shipping pur-
poses.. It is reported that shippers
have ' been offered lower rates in
New York than in this city, and Mr.
Robert Biekerdike has engaged five
steamers to load with American
cattle at 3s 6d per head.
