Election We dnesday, Oct. 15, 1873, A Fortané: in Cattle, The most-valuable herd of thor“ oughbred cattle, ever owned in: this country was that fdrmerly in the possosion of Walcott and Campbell, of “York mills; > Oneida ~ county, New . York. Calves old enough to wean were frequently sold as high as $5,000, says the San Francisco Balletin. The berd was enriched by the best stock in England, or-anywhere else, notil finally it was bred dp to a point where it surpassed any other in the country. Mr. Walcott withdrew from the business some time ago. Samuel Campbell offered the entire . herd of one hundred and eleven head a few days*ago at public auction. This sale drew together the famous cattle breeders from all parts of the country, and a number came over from England. The herd brought the suit of $380,890. ‘The highest prices were paid by English breeders. The Kighth Duchess of Geneva" brought $40,600, The‘*Tenth Duchess of Geneva’ brought $35,000, The “First Duchess of Oneida’ was sold for $30,600; while the average price paid for ten others exceeded These are the highest prices ever paid for thoroughbred cattle in the United States. The _ highest bidders were English breeders who bred both for money.and reputation, These may. be called fancy pricés, but the animals. were sold under free’ competition among ‘men who fully understand their business, anid who are making fortunes in that vocation. There have been two-or'threé-instances in this country where a famous running horse has brought more than $40,000, Oneor. two have beea sold as “high as $60,000: But there has never been, we believe, a stud of horses sold in this courtry for so much money-98-this herd of: Durhani cattle brought: They will be scattered ver the vountry and will in time become the foundation of other herds which: may also become famous, . None of these ani know, were 6, so'far as’ wa ht on account of of raising thoroughbred cattle is in its infancy, here. A few choice ani‘als have been imported during the last three years, and the successive: State Fairs show what rapid progress is making iu this direction. But most ‘cattle growers here would think $5,000 was a stunning price for a single animal, and perhaps it would be in so limited a market, Roll of Honor.

Failure of Jay Cooke & Co, . ~ In New York on Thursday last-the day was one of unusual excitement, growing out of the suspension of Jay Cooke & Co. The other failures which have recently occurred ‘were mere local affairs, and of course produced little excitement compared with Jay Codke’s. The connection of Jay Cooke with the Government in marketing the loans during the war and the funding Bacardi since, has given the firm national reputation, which of course only intensified the excitetment consequent ypon their suspension, The money market was unfavorably affected by the failure and the general distrust engendered thereby. The following card was posted on the office.door.of Jay Cooke & Co., at Philadelphia, on Thursday last: " We regret to be obliged to announce that, owing to unexpected des mands of us, our office has been obliged to suspend payment. “In a few days we will be able to present:a statement of our affairs to our creditors, until which time we must ask for their patient consideration, We believe our assets to be largely jin excess of our liabilities, Jax Cooxe.
