PROVISIONS.

LIVERPOOL, JAN. 18.—There was a steady retail business in
beef in the early part of the week, but the peace news yesterday
put a stop to transactions. Parties of experience in the trade are
of opinion that, as the season for packing beef is about over, and
the quantity packed short of last year, prices, even with peace,
are not likely to recede much farther this season. Pork is also at
a stand, and in this article there is less confidence than with beef,
as the packing season la,ts longer. Bacon, though at present
scarce, will also feel the effect of the prospect of peace. Lard,
until yesterday, sold steadily, at 67s 6d to 68s 6d. There are now
no buyers, even at a reduction. Fine cheese sells at full prices ;
secondary sorts move very slowly.
JAN. 21.—During the latter part of last week there was a good
consumptive demand for butter, at rates slightly in favor of the
buyer. Good second-rate descriptions still continue in favor at
92s to 102 s. The stock here is small ; really fine qualities are
scarce, and held at full prices, so that no change can be made in
quotations. Waterford best brands, 107 s to 109 s; Kilkenny,
Wexford, and Clonmel, 106 s to 107 s; Sligo and Limerick, 9,3 s to
1046 per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland from the 12th to
the 18th January, inclusive, 8,501 firkins, 106 kegs, 443 crocks,
313 boxes, and 49 barrels butter; 101 bales bacon; 3 hogsheads
and 39 tierces hams; 55 tierces and 70 kegs lard.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.—Mrs. McGill, of
Seel-street Dublin suffered for many years with a fearful bad
leg, which brokeout soon after her confinement; there were
several wounds in it, and the swelling was enormous ; she endured
the most excruciating pain, both day and night, and the general
opinions of the medical attendants were that it could not be cured,
therefore amputation was the only remedy; however, bad as it
was, Holloway's Ointment and Pills were resorted to, and these
miraculous medicines soon produced a wonderful change for the
better, and ultimately effected:a sound and perfect cure.

Nothing can be more interesting than the numerous extra-
ordinary cures without medicine of indigestion (dyspepsia),
flatulency, constipation, nervous, bilious, and liver complaints,
cough, asthma, consumption, and debility effected by Du Barry's
delicious health-restoring Revalenta Arabica Food. We give a
few :—" Winchester, December, 3rd, 1847.—Gentlemen: I am
happy to be able to inform you that the person for whom your
Revalenta was. procured has derived very great benefit from its
use ; distressing symptoms of dropsy, dyspepsia, and constipation
of long standing have been removed, and a feeling of restored
health induced. Having witnessed the beneficial effects in the
above-mentioned case, 1 can with confidence recommend it, &c.,
&c,--JAS. SHORLAND, late Surgeon 9Gth Regiment."—"Silvington
Rectory, Cleobury Mortimer, Salop, Feb. 1651.—Gentlemen : I
was in a miserable state of nervous irritation, but now I am
entirely free from it, and in the enjoyment of good health. Your
food is everything to be desired in my case, as I feel as if I was in
a new state of existence; and I recommend others similarly
affected to try it, for its effects are most surprising and agree-
able.—REV. JOHN JONES."

IMPORTANT CAUTION against the fearful danger& of spurious
imitations : The Vice• Chancellor, Sir William Page Wood
granted an injunction on the 10th March, 1854, against Alfred
Hooper Nevill, for imitating "Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica.
Food."
