In fact, some f-w choice bullocks Lave sold to weigh at 0, cents, and we bave doubt that many of tbe sales at conta upon estimated weight will prove nearly 10 cents. This a I vanea upon first, or rather, upon extra is all owing to a scarcity of that lass, and the necessity of butch? ers having a few to kill far their customers, and not from any deficiency in the total supply, forthat, al? though eonie 700 head les? than it was last week, is ample for the demand.

Sir: Since the Great Eastern and everything con? nected with her seema to bo 1 I beg leavo to say that on the July, I took passage in the ship Snsquehanna Cspt. John Mearken, of Packet line, from Philadelphia to Liverpool. APerfl pleasant pnssage of about twenty we made Capo Clear, and afterward saw several British sea steam? ers, which the Captain seemed very much to admire such fine sea boats, and in the courn cf conversation used to me nearly the following words: You mty not live to see them, nor I either, bnt the tlm? will come when sen-going steamer? will be built far largor than yon have any idea of now. They will lee buHt of iron, six or seven hundred feet long, abl? to crnfl the Atlantic iu eight days, and they will be the swift? est, steadiest, and most vetwela far passengers, that ever floated, and the fir? one will bfl built in England, because there they can soonest rain the means and find the men to try the vast experiment." Although I am an Englishman myself, I muet say that the idea of such a veerel us the Great Eastern may not have been originally an English one, for Capt. Mear? ken said a good deal and spoke very positively on tho anhject.

I believe he is now dead and gone, bnt prediction is verified, and I believe that, bis idea of a great was correct in every point. I havo crossed the Atlantic many times, and I have been on the Great E'stern and examined her thoronghlr. I fully believe that ehe can the Atlantic in eight that is the Bwifteat, strongest, and I un? der proper management) the most comfortable sea-boat f. pass? narers that ever waa built. If there wereB sufficient depth of water for her fully loaded, at New Yoik and Liverpool, running asa pttssenger and freight boat between those two ehe would pay.

For passengers, she wonld have a mist dlocfdad preference over all other Tbe America and the British Isles large enough now to? profitably employ the Great Tbe only tion is, are there two ports at which she can enter, aud etill gi't her neceesary share of that trad? t. j.
