Hubbard & Co. , Thomas Dyer, Reynolds & Haywood, B. Carpenter, F. L. Kent, 0. H. To- bey, Clybourne & Ellis. The largest number packed in 1853 by one house was 4, 700 head ; the smallest 250 head. The total number packed by all parties is 25, 435 head, showing an increase over last year of only 772 head, the smallness of which has been al- ready accounted for. The number of barrels of Beef packed during the past year is 57, 500, of which about 2, 500 barrels were retained for Western, consumpti...on, and the remaining 55, 000 barrels were shipped East, or are now awaiting shipment. The ulti- mate destination of this staple varies somewhat with the demand upon the New York and Bos- ton markets, but there are several firms which pack principally for English houses. One exten- sive establishment packs exclusively for the use of American whale ships. The average weight of Cattle packed here last year exceeds that of the preceding by 21 Ibs. Per head. In 1852 the average was 542 Ibs. Per head; in 1853 it was 563 Ibs.
