was a Kicatcr loss ou account of tho

To a Miner repieoeiituthe ho said.
"The cattle loss amounts to about
twenty per cent, tho horse to twenty
live while the sheep loxs is comparat
ively Unlit. The sheep, It seems, were
able to hustle for themselves aud very
few iu the counties 1 visited perished
for want of food. The rauites are unvv
iu Kood condition, and while stuck ia
exceeding weak, the uew iirHSS ia
furiilaliiiiK ample nourishment. There
will he uo further loss.
"A Ure number of cattle aud sheep

marketed this year. The market,
however, ia juat a little wobbly at
present, but 1 expect it to regain
itreuth aud vigor before the season
advances much further.
