JOHNSONVILLE PRICES.

Wright, Stephenson, and Co., Ltd., and Abraham and Williams, Ltd., report on Johnsonville sale held yesterday as follows:—To a small attendance of buyers we offered an average yarding of all classes of stock. The bullocks comprised chiefly well-finished cattle which met with a , good demand at prices on a par with last week's rates. A fair yarding of cows and heifers came forward and met with a dull sale. Vealers sold well at late rates. Wethers and ewes which -were yarding in tha usual numbers met with a good sale at prices showing no alteration. Lambs sold well at late rates.
