The Market.-The regular attendants at the Second Ward Market House say they never saw such an abundance of everything as was displayed on Saturday morning last. The stalls were filled with meats from the carcasses of the biggest to the smallest animals-from the huge ox to the diminutive squirrel, the fowls of the air and the fishes of the sea. All the wagons were packed with vegetables, and the vehicles extended from the upper end of the Market house more than half way down to Monroe street. This extraordinary abundance of provision is owing to the approaching fair.
